SOIL SUITABILITY STUDY <br /> Introduction <br /> Live Oak GeoEnvironmental, Inc. (Live Oak) was contracted by Rob Gardner Black of <br /> Glassfab Tempering to conduct a Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study for <br /> the property located at 8690 West Linne Road, 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. The formatting of the report has <br /> been designed to follow the recommendations of the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department as described in its Soil Suitability Study <br /> Requirements Checklist and Nitrate Loading Study Requirements Checklist. <br /> The Soil Suitability Study and Nitrate Loading Study were conducted to determine <br /> whether the soils are suitable for use with a septic system, as well as to estimate if the <br /> use of septic systems will impact ground water quality. The study was performed <br /> according to the requirements of Section 9-1105.2(d) of the San Joaquin County <br /> Development code. <br /> Proposed Development <br /> According to the San Joaquin County Community Development Department, the <br /> proposed development is a Tenant Improvement Building Permit to convert a portion of <br /> the existing two-story warehouse to offices, storage, a lobby, a break room, restrooms, <br /> a conference room, a reception/lobby, and an entry, as well as an attached covered <br /> entry and ADA upgrades (correspondence with Kelsey Gunter, Assistant Planner, <br /> December 3, 2020). <br /> Site Description <br /> The Site is defined as Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) 253-210-18, approximately <br /> 6.44 acres in size. It is located at 8690 West Linne Road, Tracy (Plate 1). <br /> The Site is the former Triple E Produce packing facility. A large warehouse, one smaller <br /> building, a well, and two known septic systems are located on the Site (Plate 2). The <br /> remainder of the property is paved. Railroad tracks define the western property line, <br /> and a railroad spur enters the western side of the Site. <br /> The elevation of the Site, according to a United States Geological Survey topographic <br /> map, is approximately 130 to 138 feet above mean sea level. The Site is relatively flat <br /> (Plate 3). <br /> LOGE 20-60 Page 1 <br />
