4.0 Records Review<br />
4.1 Physical Setting<br />
4.1.1 Geology<br />
The Property is located approximately 1,535 to 1,680 feet above mean<br />
sea level with surface topography sloping slightly towards the south<br />
(United States Geological Survey [USGS] Topographic Map, Sunnymead,<br />
California, 1967, Photorevised 1980). The Property is underlain by<br />
unconsolidated and semi-consolidated alluvium, lake, playa, and terrace<br />
deposits (Division <strong>of</strong> Mines and Geology, Geologic Map <strong>of</strong> California, 2000).<br />
4.1.2 Groundwater<br />
According to the Western Municipal Water District, Cooperative Well<br />
Measuring Program, Spring 2008 Data, the nearest well with data (State<br />
Well ID# 03S/03W-05M; Thrifty Oil #353, MW-2) is located approximately<br />
1½-miles west <strong>of</strong> the Property. Depth to groundwater at this well was<br />
measured at 102.92 feet below ground surface (bgs) in February 2010.<br />
No groundwater flow information was available, therefore, groundwater<br />
flow was assumed to follow surface topography to the south.<br />
4.1.3 Potable Water Supplier<br />
No potable water is supplied to the Property.<br />
4.2 Historical Review<br />
4.2.1 Aerial Photograph and Map Review<br />
Available historical aerial photographs and Sanborn Maps (EDR;<br />
HistoricAerials) and Historical United States Geologic Survey (USGS)<br />
topographic maps, as described in Table 1, were reviewed. According to<br />
EDR, there is no Sanborn map coverage in the area <strong>of</strong> the Property.<br />
