Soil Suitability and Nitrate Loading Study <br /> HOBAN PROPERTY <br /> 21145 East Sara Lane, Linden, California <br /> 1.0. INTRODUCTION AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT <br /> AdvancedGeo, Inc. (AGI) has prepared this Soil Suitability and Nitrate Loading Study <br /> (Study) for the property located at 21145 East Sara Lane, California (site or subject <br /> property). The purpose of this Study is to determine the potential impact from nitrate <br /> loading and the suitability of the subsurface for an onsite wastewater treatment system <br /> (OWES) due to the proposed development of a residence and septic system at the site, <br /> and the future use of the property. The study was performed in accordance with the <br /> requirements of Section 9-1105.2(d) of the San Joaquin County Community Development <br /> Department (SJCCDD). The scope of work included a soil percolation test, groundwater <br /> sampling of the onsite domestic water well, review of published soil and groundwater <br /> information, local septic use and permit research and estimated nitrate impact to soil and <br /> groundwater at the site. The site and surrounding area are illustrated in Figure 1. A site <br /> plan depicting structures, the percolation test hole location, and the planned locations of <br /> the proposed residence and septic system are illustrated in Figure 2. <br /> 1.1. DESCRIPTION OF SITE <br /> The location of the site, surrounding properties and general setting is illustrated on the <br /> Peters topographic map (7.5 Minute United States Geological Survey (USGS) <br /> Topographic Series, California). The site is located in the northwest portion of Section 1, <br /> Township 2 North, Range 8 East, Mount Diablo Base and Meridian (Figure 1). <br /> The map shows the property located at an elevation of approximately 90 feet above mean <br /> sea level in an area of low topographic relief. The regional slope of the area is relatively <br /> gentle and dips toward the west. The property is located at the termination point of East <br /> Sara Lane, approximately 800 feet west of the intersection of East Sara Lane and South <br /> Reid Avenue, Linden, California. The site consists of a 2.0-acre rectangular parcel <br /> identified as San Joaquin County Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 183-360-700. The <br /> property was formerly part of a 15.20-acre parcel with the address of 303 South Reid <br /> Avenue. <br /> The current zoning of the property is single-family residential. The existing structures on <br /> the site include an 1,800-square foot house, a 600-square foot detached garage, and a <br /> domestic water well. The property is provided potable water from the existing domestic <br /> water well located on the site (Figure 2). <br /> 1.2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT <br /> The proposed development will include adding a three-bedroom home and a septic <br /> system in the eastern portion of the site. The new septic system will be located to the <br />
