source of safe and clean water adequate for human consumption, cooking or sanitary purposes will need to be established for future development. 6.2 Description of the methods proposed to mitigate any known or future impact to soil and groundwater from nitrate and/or other constituents of concern, at and/or around the project site: The project, as described in this report, is sustainable by the site. The existing house and septic system are not the primary source of the nitrate loading given that they are in a rural area and the subject property is essentially forty acres. The designated remainder has a homesite building permit restriction, meaning no other homes can be built within the forty acres. Given the site's current nitrate levels in proximity of the residence, it would be beneficial to attempt to lower the site's overall nitrate concentration used for agricultural purposes. Additions or modifications to the site may require the addition of a wastewater treatment system. At the time an addition is proposed, this report should be updated to ensure the adequate improvements are made. 7.0 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS SECTION The conclusions of this report are based on the information provided regarding the proposed development, the use of the subject property, and the site conditions as they existed at the time we excavated our test hole and performed the percolation test. It was assumed that the test hole and percolation test and the compiled data results are representative of the subsurface conditions in the general area. The site complies with the San Joaquin County requirement by having a project site with less than 10.0 mg/L-N. The values used for calculations assume that the nitrate concentration of rainfall is 1 mg/L-N as previously noted (Hanztch/Finnermore). Also, the site contains denitrification processes and that based on uses the site effluent stream is 35 mg/L-N. Analyzing all the compiled data, the site is adequate for the proposed use with an alternative source of water for cooking, sanitary and human consumption. 7.1 APPENDIX Attachments are all included at the end of this report as part of the Appendix. 8.0 LIMITATIONS Limitations use in Soil Suitability Report: Our services were performed, our findings obtained, and our conclusions proposed in accordance with generally accepted engineering principles and practices.
