. Guilarte Residence-Claim No.354110 HCE Report No. 100091.1 � Page No.2 Publicly Available Information References Prior to initiating the field work, publicly av ilable records were reviewed to establish a inore thorough understanding of the general site and surroundin land conditions. The following sections of this report discuss infonnation sources utilized iv the planning and evaluation of the subject property. USGS Quadrangle/Topographic Map The United States Geological Service (USGS) ublishes inaps called quadrangles which indicate the general round slo es elevation and land features. T e maps are divided by Township, Range and Section. Each � � > > . township and range division represents 36 squar miles. The section represents 1/36th of the Township-Range location or one square inile. The maps are prese ted in a scale of 1:24,000. The USGS quadrangle map area in the Appendix is enlarged to a sinaller scale for t e purposes of presenting higher resolution infonnation for the subject parcel vicinity. The subject property is located in Township 6 South, Range 21 East, Section 12. Review of the USGS Quadrangle/Topographic map (A e��dix A i zrre 2) obtained from msrmaps.coin indicates that the neighborhood is rolling with elevation changes o 30 to 40 feet within the surrounding square inile. The Guilarte residence is located at an approximate elevation of 90 MSL. � Soil Conservation Service(SCS)Map The United States Department of Agriculture S il Conservation Service(SCS)publishes soil surveys for many of the counties in Florida. The SCS inaps provid information for agricultural,wildlife habitat,engineering,and recreational u oses. The soil surve ma s del neate soil types based on coinposition,and the delineations are p rp Y P noted on aerial photographs. The soil survey d ta extends to a inaximum depth of 80 inches below the ground surface. Groundwater information included in t e soil surveys describes the annual range of normal fluctuation and the level of the seasonal high groundwate The seasonal high groundwater is the highest level that the groundwater is expected to achieve during the r iny season of a normal rainfall year. ' t e is resent at the sub'ect arcel. T e soil ma in for the area is resented in�pendix A.Fi z�e One soil yp p � p Pl� g P 3. The descriptions of the pertinent soil and gr undwater conditions are suirunarized as follows: Tavares Urban Land Coinplex(0-5%slopes)- This soil consists of sand to a depth of 80 inches. The surface layer is very dark gray to about 3 inches and then is yellowish brown and light yellowish brown to a depth of 56 inches. Below this layer, the sand becomes very pale brown to 76 inches and then white to depths.of 80 inches or more. In inost years,the seasonal high groundwater level is at depths of 40 to 60 inches, receding to deeper than 60 inches during dry periods. This soil is generally not a probleinatic soil. Aerial Pliotograph An aerial photograph of the project vicinity w s obtained fi•om Google Earth and is attached in�peizdix B. FiQZn�e 1. The aerial photograph depicts the ne'ghborhood as priinarily residential with lot sizes typically less than one-quarter acre. The residence is located n the central portion of the property and faces toward the north. The property is bordered by residences on all si es except the north,which is bordered by 6'�'Avenue. The aerial photograph did not show apparent evidence of roblematic conditions,such as natural wetlands,that could have extended onto the site prior to construction.
