07 Septmber 2021 <br />Project No. 21-6531 <br />Page 4 of 14 <br />ADDRESS: 20142 Little John Road <br />LOCATION: Adjacent property to the south <br />SEPTIC SYSTEM: 1) Permit date July 2004; new installation of septic system: 1,600- <br />gallon concrete tank with two compartments, three 40-foot-long leach lines, and one 36- <br />inch diameter, 25-foot-deep seepage pits. <br /> <br /> <br />3.6. PROPOSED MAXIMUM SEPTIC TANK USAGE ON SITE <br /> <br />The current residence on the property has for three (3) bedrooms and utilizes the existing <br />septic system 365 days per year. The existing septic system will not be altered from the <br />current configuration. The average and reasonable maximum usage of wastewater for a <br />three-bedroom home by residents is 100 gallons per day (gpd) for the first bedroom and <br />50 gpd for each additional bedroom for a total of 200 gpd. <br /> <br />The new proposed septic system is planned to be located in the southwestern portion of <br />the property over 100 feet away from the existing onsite domestic water well and the <br />surrounding water wells. The proposed septic system will service the planned three- <br />bedroom modular home to be developed on the property. The proposed septic system <br />will be used by the three-bedroom residence 365 days per year. The average and <br />reasonable maximum usage of wastewater for a three-bedroom home by residents is <br />100 gpd for the first bedroom and 50 gpd for each additional bedroom for a total of <br />200 gpd. <br /> <br /> <br />4.0. GROUNDWATER INFORMATION - REGIONAL HYDROGEOLOGY <br /> <br />The Geologic Map of California, published in 1966 by the California Department of <br />Conservation Division of Mines and Geology, shows the site area within the Great Valley <br />Syncline (GVS), a large, elongate, northwest trending structural trough. The GVS is <br />subdivided into two major divisions designated the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys, <br />which have been filled to the present elevation with thick sequences of sediment ranging <br />in age from Jurassic to present day, creating a nearly flat-lying alluvial plain extending <br />from the Tehachapi Mountains in the south to the Klamath Mountains in the north. The <br />western and eastern boundaries of this province are comprised of the California Coast <br />Range and the Sierra Nevada, respectively. Geologically, the area around the property <br />generally consists of Holocene-aged flood-basin deposits of clay, silt, and sand. Miocene <br />to Holocene age-units are located in the surrounding area. <br /> <br />These deposits are heterogeneous mix of generally poorly sorted clay, silt, sand, and <br />gravel with some beds of claystone, siltstone, sandstone, and conglomerate (1986). Most <br />of the fresh groundwater in the Central Valley is contained in the post-Eocene-aged <br />continental rocks and deposits and in the Holocene-aged river deposits consisting of <br />gravel, sand, silt, and minor amounts of clay. In general, these geologic materials
