One percolation test will be conducted at each of the four Design Pollution Prevention Infiltration Areas (DPPIA) locations (a total of four percolation tests). See table of specific locations under Continuation Sheet. This project is 100% State funded per the project manager, therefore this is a CEQA only document.
