Co. , MN. <br /> • <br /> This system is designed for a Type 1, four bedroom home and in accordance <br /> with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency standards WPC 40 and local <br /> ordinances. . • <br /> The soils on this site are typical of SCS soils mapped - SwB - Shorewood <br /> silty clay loam. A seasonally high water table was located at 16" , 20" , <br /> 22" , 28" , & 30" , (mottling) . Due to the seasonally high water table, a <br /> pressurized mound system will need to be installed. The bottom of the rock <br /> bed must be located at least 3 ' above the seasonally high water table. <br /> The soils at a depth of 18" have a percolation rate averaging 4 . 6 min/inch <br /> and are adequate for treating septic effluent. <br /> A pumping chamber will need to be installed to lift the effluent to the <br /> treatment area. <br /> The manifold and supply line pipe must have back drainage to the pumping <br /> chamber. The distribution pipes shall have their ends capped. Be sure <br /> the rock and sand fill material are clean. The sod layer below the <br /> entire mounded area, must be turned over, just break up the sod, be sure <br /> not to over work. • <br /> The power supply an,d switches must be located outside the manhole and <br /> pumping chamber in a weather proof enclosure. A warning device must be <br /> installed with a light and sound device, this is in case of a pump failure. <br /> (Mercury floats are a good method) . <br /> All neighboring wells are located more than 100 ' away from the proposed <br /> treatment area. • <br /> • <br /> Keep all heavy equipment off of •the proposed treatment area before and <br /> after construction as much as possible. The treatment area should be <br /> marked off before construction. <br /> With proper installation and maintenance, this system should have no <br /> problem in treating septic effluent effectively. <br /> It is recommended that the septic tanks be pumped every 2 years . <br /> • <br /> • <t • __. <br /> Soil and Percolation Tests Steven B.
