(Live Oak) was contracted by Dwayne White to <br /> conduct a Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study for his property located at <br /> 31390 and 31396 South State Route 33, Tracy, California. <br /> The Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study are combined under this report <br /> cover and presented as two sections of this report.
