BACKGROUND The following section summarizes available background information pertaining specifically to the Lodi City Landfill, as well as information for the adjacent westerly property since it is relevant to the planned subject investigation. Available information indicating the approximate locations of areas investigated is summarized on Figure 3 and background information is provided in Appendix A. In an August 1977 letter from the City of Lodi to the San Joaquin Local Health District, it was indicated that two sites, one being the Lodi City Landfill, referred to as the "Old City Disposal Site" should be exempt as solid waste disposal sites. The letter provided a brief summary of the history of the Lodi City Landfill as follows. The site was indicated as being located at 105 E. Turner Road and had been used by the City of Lodi for over 25 years primarily for the disposal of street sweepings and leaves. At the time the letter was prepared it was indicated that the site was no longer being used except for the temporary storage of street sweepings, broken concrete and pavement, and other miscellaneous debris. The letter stated, "This material is picked up and taken to the County's Harney Land dump site on a weekly basis for final disposal. The City of Lodi is in the process of arranging for the composting, recycling, and removal of all the leaves located at this site." In a February 1978 letter from the City of Lodi to the San Joaquin Local Health District titled "Old City Dump Site, Southern Pacific Railroad and Mokelumne River" it was indicated that the City of Lodi was not longer using their old dump site on the Mokelumne River for disposing of debris and that the City would be removing all of the leaves at the old dump by May 1979. In November 1982, The Foundation Engineers, Inc. (Foundation Engineers) prepared a report titled: "Preliminary Geotechnical Engineering Investigation, Proposed Residential Develop- ment, Lodi, California." The purpose of their investigation was to evaluate the foundation materials and the subsurface conditions of the site in anticipation of future possible residential development consisting of six lots for single-family residences. 104690061 R final"doc 4 N/ft 0&M00r P-
