Existing and Proposed Septic Tank Usage <br /> Existing Septic System <br /> No septic systems are currently located on the Site. <br /> Proposed Septic System <br /> The Mclntoshes plan to build a new septic system for the new residence. <br /> On-Site Septic Permit History <br /> The San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department septic permit files were <br /> searched for the Site address. No septic permits were identified. <br /> Existing Septic Tank Usage in the Vicinity <br /> To estimate the septic system usage in the area, our office counted septic systems that <br /> exist within approximately one square mile surrounding the property. Air photo imagery <br /> from Google Earth was used. Each building cluster on the photo was assumed to have <br /> one septic system. Using this method, it is estimated that at least 24 septic systems per <br /> square mile are located in the immediate vicinity of the Site. Buildings located within <br /> Ripon city limits were presumed to be connected to municipal sewer services, and were <br /> not counted. <br /> The vicinity of the Site is composed of orchards, rural residences, and residential <br /> neighborhoods within the City of Ripon; a nursery is located to the west. <br /> Septic Permit History in the Vicinity <br /> Based on a review of septic permits on file at the San Joaquin County Environmental <br /> Health Department for nearby properties, septic systems in the area utilize leach lines, <br /> leach lines with sumps, or leach lines with 10-foot deep seepage pits. The septic <br /> permits can be found in Appendix 4 of this report. <br /> Expected On-Site Maximum Septic Tank Usage <br /> Maximum expected usage on the Site would be from the future residents of the Site. <br /> Septic system design should be based on the San Joaquin County On-Site Wastewater <br /> Treatment Systems Standards (2017) or other engineering recommendations. <br /> LOGE 20-25 Page 2 <br />
