SOIL SUITABILITY STUDY Introduction Live Oak GeoEnvironmental, Inc. (Live Oak) was contracted by Eddie and Rosa McCormick to conduct a Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study for their property located at 3657 South Pock Lane, Stockton, California (Plate 1). The Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study are combined under this report cover and presented as two sections of this report. The formatting of the report has been designed to follow the recommendations of the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department as described in its Soil Suitability Study Requirements Checklist and Nitrate Loading Study Requirements Checklist. The Soil Suitability Study was conducted to determine whether the soils are suitable for use with a septic system. The study was performed according to the requirements of Section 9-1105.2(d) of the San Joaquin County Development code. Proposed Development The McCormicks intend to place a mobile home on the Site (Plate 2). Site Description The Site is composed of Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) 179-140-04, 2.50 acres in size. The Site is located at 3657 South Pock Lane, Stockton. A two-bedroom home and a few small outbuildings are currently located on the Site. A well and septic system serve the existing home (Plate 3). The elevation of the Site, according to a United States Geological Survey topographic map, is approximately 24 feet above mean sea level. The Site is relatively flat (Plate 4). According to the San Joaquin County District Viewer (sjmap.org), the Site is zoned AU- 20, Agriculture-Urban Reserve. The San Joaquin County Community Development Department states that this zoning designation "is intended to retain in agriculture those areas planned for future urban development in order to facilitate compact, orderly growth and to assure the proper timing and economical provision of services and utilities."
