SOIL SUITABILITY STUDY FINDINGS AND SITE EVALUATIONS The management of wastewater effluent by the soil primarily protects human health and mitigates environmental degradation,particularly from nitrate and pathogens. Water flow through the proposed disposal area soils,by gravity(downward), horizontally, and by capillary action and evaporation(upward), were studied for this project. The findings presented below have determined that at different elevations,the property soils possess characteristics that are somewhat restrictive for the management of wastewater effluent with respect to permeability at the deeper depths,but simultaneously favorable for the mitigation of nitrate loading due to this restrictive permeability. 2.1 Surface and Subsurface Soil Characteristics I Topography of the soil surface shows the land surface to be at 15 MSL with an imperceptible declination assumed to be in a westerly direction. The slope is less than 1%. This is an acceptable surface slope for the disposal area and may be easily maintained during construction procedures. NLS§ 1.1 As referenced above and evidenced in the attached Photographic Plates, the surface soils consist of recently plowed soil to a depth of-12 to 18 inches. Below this disked soil is a densely compact soil structure consisting of a fine sand, cemented silts. A considerably dense"plow-pan layer" is quite evident from 12 inches down to approximately 24 inches in depth. This severe soil compaction was probably caused by tractor wheel compaction under optimum soil moisture conditions during tillage, along with chemical inducement. Under this layer at approximately three to four feet, the soil density is variable as determined by in-place density testing and composed of a yellowish brown, fine silty sand material, with excellent permeability.
