Proposed 320-acre Site Location ( cont 'd) <br /> Figure IV also depicts 2 additional possible sites of 320 <br /> acres . However, site "A 11 is considered to be the most desirable <br /> in terms of distance from Lodi and close proximity to the <br /> present site . <br /> For the purpose of this report, Site "A" is therefore <br /> recommended for consideration as the replacement site. <br /> The estimated land costs of $550 per acre will result in total <br /> land acquisition costs of $176, 000. (Appendix A) <br /> The suitability of Site "A"--or any site--for a landfill <br /> purpose will need to be determined by a comprehensive Geotechnical <br /> Investigation as required by the Water Quality Control Board to <br /> meet the environmental standards . <br /> The procedure for the acquisition of any site for landfill <br /> purposes would therefore require a determination of availability <br /> with an option to purchase in order to institute appropriate <br /> Geotechnical Investigations . <br /> The scope of the Geotechnical Investigation will include <br /> but not limited to the following: <br /> 1) Drill sufficient holes on site to evaluate <br /> geological conditions . <br /> 2) Evaluate 100 year flood effects on site. <br /> 3) Determine permeability of soils . <br /> 4) Design seals, if necessary, for permeable zones . <br /> 5) Design monitoring wells . <br /> 6) Design Environmental controls. <br /> 7) Develop appropriate criteria for landfill operation <br /> based on geology of site. <br /> 8) Develop methods of disposal for difficult disposal <br /> - 20 - <br />
