Most houses built in Orono after 1960 where city sewer is not available have two septic tanks, one or more distribution boxes and a number of drainfield trenches . In the septic tanks, heavy sewage solids will settle to the bottom and be decomposed by anaerobic (oxygen-free) bacteria action. Floating solids such as grease, fat, and soap scum will be retained inside the tank by baffles at the inlet and outlet. This ensures that the effluent entering the drainfield is relatively free of solids, which tend to clog up clay soils. Many houses built after 1975 have mound drainfields . These systems function on the same principles as trench drainfields ..except that the trench bed is installed above the original ground to provide a separation from the seasonally high water table and allow the system to function adequately. TRENCH SYSTEM floating solids distribution box drainfields sludge l MOUND SYSTEM E pumping chamber HOW CAN I MAKE MY SEPTIC SYSTEM LAST LONGER? 1. Do not use your toilet or kitchen sink as a garbage can. Undigested foods and cigarette butts will - not decompose in the septic tanks (this includes the use of garbage disposals! ) . 2 . Havre your tanks pumped at least once every three years (once every two years is necessary with garbage disposals) . This will probably cost you $80 - $125 . If you do not specifically ask the pumping contractor to open up your tanks, he will probably just put the hose down the inspection riser and drain the liquid from the tanks. This method will not effectively remove the solids! The tanks should be opened in order to. stir the contents while pumping to break up the sludge and scum layers. The bafflelt can also be cleaned, examined, and repaired (if necessary) at this time. vY CITY of ORONO Municipal Offices Street Address: Mailing Address: 2750 Kelley Parkway P.O.

Appears to be operating properly. 2 Compliant System: Does not meet all current City standards for new construction, but in most respects appears to be designed, located, and constructed in accordance with previous codes and is functioning properly. 3 Non-Compliant System: System may or may not meet current City standards for design, construction, or location, but is failing to properly treat and dispose of the current input; and any system with less than three feet of vertical separation between the bottom of the drainfield and the saturated soil level.

Tanks must be pumped out within 48 hours. Inspection risers missing-tanks could not be inspected. If tanks have not been pumped out within three years, they should be pumped out and risers installed now. 9 Inspection pipe is located over tank baffle-can not measure solids accumulation. If tanks have not been pumped out within three years, they should be pumped out now. 10 One or more tanks are cesspools, which means the septic system is non-compliant.

FROM: Stephen Weckman, On-Site Systems Manager DATE: March 17, 1994 SUBJECT: Septic System Status for Certificate of Occupancy Due to a wet construction season last year, the septic system could not be completed in time for the occupation of the residence. Although the system does not meet all current codes, it will be considered "conforming" until the work can be completed. The owner, G. L.

The other lot in the proposed subdivision is the existing house. Lot 1 had an average percolation rate of 12.8 minutes per inch on the primary site(holes 1-4) and a rate of 10. 7 MPI on the alternate site. With the lack of a high water table, standard trenches are possible on both sites. Lot 2 had sand soils and yielded an average percolation rate of 7.8 minutes per inch on the primary site(holes 1-4) and a rate of 10.0 MPI on the alternate site(holes 5-6). Again, with the lack of a high water table standard trenches would be possible. Lot 3 is the existing house and Lot 4 had an average percolation rate of 15.5 minutes per inch for the primary site(holes 1-4), and a rate of 30.0 minutes per inch on the alternate site(holes 5-6).Standard trenches could be used on both sites also, but the alternate site could have the trenches no deeper than 2 feet in the natural soil. Lot 5 had an average percolation rate of 9.6 minutes per inch on the primary site(holes 1-4) and 7.9 MPI on the alternate site. Because of a possible high water table these areas were tested shallower for shallow trench systems in the abundant black loam topsoil. Thus, shallow trenches would be needed for both sites and interceptor drains would be highly recommended. Once a house is proposed, a sp ific system design would be needed.
