Re; SKP # 4
Drainfield;
The existing drainfield is 34" below the surface to the pipe. An open soil to
9 pp p log
at the failure area shows; silty, clay loam 0" - 6", sandy silt loam 6" - 18", heavily
mottled clay loam 18" - 28" ( top of gravel ) Oxygen to this system has been sub-
stantially restricted by the depth of install and poor quality, restrictive cover over the
drainfield. This is a major factor in system performance and failure. The original
design by Northwest Septic called for 6" cover (top soil), 12" gravel to incase distri-
bution pipe, and 24" of C-33 sand below gravel. It also shows visqueen on side
walls from top of gravel to bottom of sand. See attached diagram and install narra-
tive with specific caution to install shallow. " It is important to understand that the
more shallow the cover the more oxygen can get to the bottom of the bed and that
this enhances the treatment of the effluent" Current park management have stated
that the original systems were installed by volunteers, and that the utilities in the
park were installed and grading took place afterwards. Also, my install foreman (
Blake Holmes) road motorcycles in this same area before the park was built, and it
was all sand and gravel. The tight, silty cover material must have been imported
material.
The original system was designed for 100 gpd as the EPA guidelines allow for
a RV park . This design calls for a drainfield capable of handling 1,440 gpd ( 6 sites
at 240 gpd per site) The attached, recent Septic System Study reflects a daily site
average in the 80 gallons including the dumping of holding tanks. Typically, when
these tanks are dumped, 80 gallons comes from the black water tank and 20 gal-
Ions from the grey water tank follows to flush the pipe. This is done on a 4-5 day cy-
cle, or 20 - 25 gal. per day average.
. k
SEp 16 Zoo
Even though dumping is included in the daily average, it is possible for all sites to
dump on the same day creating a surge on the system. Therefore, I've added the
total potential surge to the daily average in arriving at the 240 gpd per site. I'm us-
ing approximately 1.5 x the current daily usage, plus 100% dumping on the same
day.
The surge created by the holding tank dumping will be moderated by having
all sewage enter a 1,500 gal 2 compartment tank, the first compartment (1,000 gal )
will buffer the initial surge created by the 4'-5' drop from the holding tank valve to the
tank inlet. The 4" opening in the partition wall will reduce the turbulence as it enters
the second compartment of the first of two septic tanks. The second tank, is actu-
ally the third and forth compartments of the septic tank system.
The black water holding tanks allow for 4 - 5 day holding and settling, then
when dumped a certain amount of agitation occurs. The tankage as designed al-
lows for over a 4 day retention time for settling in additon to a high quality outlet filter
and a two tank pump tank system. ( Septic System Study show out of 9 systems
monitored, all were under 100 gpd) Annual classes in septic dos and don't is rec-
ommended with one topic being , dumping on different days. Also, if possible have
as many park models on each septic system. The park models have standard flush
toilets, (no holding and dumping) minimizing surging and suspended solids.
Septic Tank Sizing;
Design flow of 1,440 gpd x 1.5 = 2,160gal. Proposing a concrete 2 com-
partment 1,500 gal. septic tank, and a 1,51510 gal. in series totaling. ,OV0 gallons.
To further protect the pump tanks and drainfield use Tuf Tite EF 6 combo filter
on septic tank out.
Pump Tank Sizing;
Design flow of 1,440 gpd x 2.0 = 2,880 gal. Proposing two (2) single com-
partment 1,500 gal. tanks totaling 3,000 gallons. ( see attached tank cut sheet)
Note the actual daily flows per unit is between 80 - 90 gpd. (Disregard the 99 gpd
on system 11 as a check valve was installed Aug. 8 or 9, which stopped the 90% +
return of the effluent from the drainfield after each pump down) without any imput
from the homes/ RVs.
Existing Tanks;
Why not use the existing tanks? When system # 2 was replaced last year,
the tanks were water tested by inflating test balls in the inlet and outlet pipes. Risers
were sealed to the tank tops and filled to the top with water. The water column
dropped rapidly until the level dropped to below where the concrete lids were mor-

tared to the tank walls indicating substantial leaks at that point. Then the water con-
tinued to fall at a slower rate indicating cracks in the tank walls and or floor.
John Crook has been manually pumping system #4 to monitor and keep ef-
fluent off the surface of the ground. He has observed the tank filling, after pump out
without any sewage flow into the tank, indicating ground water intrusion. In my ex-
perience pre 1995 tanks were not made to the same standards, and by pressure
dosing with timers your just asking for problems in trying to use tanks of this vintage.
At present the management is aware of 3- Return Osmosis (RO)system in
the park. RO systems use 5 gallons of water to create 1 gallon of useable water.
These systems are needed primarily when poor water quality is available. For ex-
ample, some areas in Arizona and Mexico were noted by John Crook, (one of the
park residence and managers.) as providing unpleasant water. This park is served
by a public water system with great water quality. My recommendations to the park
management are to prohibit the use of RO systems. The directing board met Mon-
day Aug. 19, and approved the restriction. This will be implemented into their by-
laws.
Waste Strength; 1. Samples were taken from this and two other systems and deliv-
ered to Twiss Analytical , Inc. They have already been submitted to JCH, system #1
results are attached. The three areas tested show levels in the typical residential
range; BOD 182, Oil & Grease 6.4, and Total Suspended Solids 90. These num-
bers can change significantly with varying occupants, their habits, and health condi-
tions. For example.ilVAMV stectand came back with -_>kA a Oil &
Grease at 13.7, and . ` w' e SditiS This could be reflecting a very
recent dumping of a tank of tanks ( with heavy concentrations of solids and possibly
travel chemicals)just prior to sampling which would affect the readings. Another
possible cause could be an occupant on the system that was using strong drugs.
With aging park tenants careful monitoring of the system will be critical due to the
potential for cancer fighting drug treatments for example. Whenever possible,
when such treatment conditions exist, it is recommended to shut down the system
and pump tanks to keep the chemicals out of the system.
2. Waste from park models is different from travel trailers and motor homes. Park
models have typical waste water because they have flush toilet with standard
flush volumes and some have cloths washers. The travel trailers and motor
homes use holding tank and minimal water is used with each flush, and often
showers are taken at the community center. I recommend that park management
arrange for park models to be incorporated into each septic system where possi-
ble to help achieve typical residential flows. The added retention time in the sep-
tic tank system will help in not only settling of the suspended solids, but will help
somewhat in breaking down the waste. The majority of the treatment will take
place in the shallow install where the aerobic bacteria thrives.

3. It should also be noted that a large percentage of the travel trailers and motor
homes leave the park by October and don't return until sometime in April.
This design reflects a substantial upgrade to the existing system which has been in
use for 27 years. It's my opinion that the flaws in the existing system are as follows;
the drainfield was installed almost 3 feet deep and backfilled with a silty clay loam
backfill directly over the gravel. This will create an anerobic condition leading to the
formation of a biomatt that seal off the infiltrative surface and then over time, the ef-
fluent will find the path of least resistance to the surface. As designed, a shallow in-
stall of 9"-10" with graveless chambers backfilled with sandy material will make all
the difference in performance. Initially, monitoring of the system will need to be on
a 6 month basis for the first 2 years and then annually. The additional tank sizing
will increase retention time for moderating flows, and helping to buffer waste
strength.
I recommend that park management address and hold annual education classes on
the health of septic system with all park occupants.

Comments (put
additional on back)
• Preintake=Meetings or discussion with designer, client or other staff(DCD or BLD)prior to
submittal of application. May include site visit(that we get paid a tech assist for)
• Intake=Review for critical areas, zoning or review required by other departments. Includes Data
entry, create file, route copies, enter to excel spreadsheet.
•
• Initial Inspection=Field visit in prep for design review. Include time to and from for each site and
each visit.
• Design Review=Review of the design for consistency with septic code, guidelines, policies,
zoning and other county codes. Also consistency within design(is the calculation consistent with
the plan sheet, with the application.....) . Track redesigns in this space but indicate with an R.
• Installation inspections=Includes precover inspection, pressure test if required and reinspections.
Include time to and from for each site and each visit. -
• Support Staff processing=This is a part of many of the processes throughout the permits life.
Creation of file and data entry, pulling existing files, sending out permit to owner and designer,
filing, processing requests for inspection(fax and pull files), data entry for receipt of required
paper work(monitoring agreements, easements,covenants). Scan following final. A single case is
handled by support staff at least 6 times(each pulling of the file means handling it twice)
• Comment= Information pertinent to the time required for processing that may not be obvious(ie
many critical areas, multiple owners, zoning issues, problematic designer...etc)
