OF LOT 3, BLOCK 1, HAUSER LAUER WCC :;DJITION
ORONO, MINNESOTA
11-30-89
Information follows for the installation of a pressure mound
system for the proposed house on the above property. Also,
two septic tanks of at least 1000 gallons will be needed
along with a pumping tank of at least 750 gallons.
All construction and materials must adhere to the provisions
of the City of Orono. All construction and grading must be
kept off both the primary and the alternate septic site
areas. Runoff water should be diverted from the mound area.
If any other information is needed, please contact me.

PUMP SELECTION PROCEDURE
A. Determine pump capacity:
1. Minimum suggested is 600 gallons per hour (10 Rpm) -
to stay ahead of water use rate
2. Maximum suggested for delivery to a drop box of a home
system is 2700 gallons per hour (45 gpm) to prevent ^
buildup of pressure in drop box
3. Use value from design of pressure distribution system f�
SELECTED PUMP CAPACITY . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . _ —5-

B. Determine head requirements:
I. Elevation difference between pump and point of discharge
-feet
2. If pumping to a pressure distribution system, add 5 feet
for pressure required at manifold . . . . . . . . . .
.S feet
3. Friction loss
a. Enter Enter friction loss table with gpm and pipe diameter.
Read friction loss in feet per 100 feet from page F-18.
F. L. = ft/100 ft
b. Determine total pipe length from pump to discharge
point. Add 25 percent to pipe length for fitting
loss, or use a fitting loss chart. Equivalent pipe
length - 1.25 times pipe length = 1.25 x O

C. Calculate total friction loss by multiplying --

4. Total head required is the sum of elevation difference,
special head requirements, and totc.l friction loss.

C. Pump selection H�
I. A pump must be selected Eo deliver at least J S; i gpm
with at least /6. / feet of total head.
D. To maximize pump life select sump size for 4 to 5 pump
operations per day.
I•:. Calculate drainback
1. Determine total Ripe length, a o feet.
2. Determine liquid volume of pipe, �, S,Q gallons per
100 feet. (See page F-18)
3. Multiply length by volume: Drainback quantity =
8'0 feet x a, S F gallons/100 ft - S_.5 gallons
4. Suggested drainback quantity is 10 percent of pumped quantity.
A larger drainback percentage will decrease pump station
efficiency slightly but pumping energy costs are usually a
relatively small part of the total household energy costs.

SITE EVALUATION REPORT
FOP. LEOPOLD HAUSER III
475 N. FERNDALE ROAD
ORONO, MINNESOTA
5-5-89
On Mav 2-3, 1989 the existing house was tested for an alter-
nate drainfield site and very good.sandy soils were encountered
with an average percolation rate of 4.33 minutes per inch. This,
along with the lack of a high water table would enable a standard
system to be constructed.
The ne-.�, lot 2 was tested for both a primary and an alternate
site with Lc .i areas meeting the criteria for pressure mound sys-
tems. The primary site had an average percolation rate of 22.4
minutes per inch, and the alternate site had an average rate of
32.0 minutes per inch. Both showed evidence of a high seasonal
water table.
Individual system designs will be needed when a new house
is constructed. If any other information is needed, please con-
tact me.
