F <br /> head= 1.3 (conv. factor)x distal pressure 5 ft=6.5 ft <br /> nce between the pump and the highest elevation of the distribution network =4.0 ft <br /> force main =8 ft(250 ft of force main+manifold)+add-on friction loss of 0 ft= <br /> + 8= 18.Sft <br /> PUMP REQUIREMENTS <br /> Pursuant to EHD requirements, the pumping system for the effluent disposal will consist of a <br /> duplex pump arrangement, with the pumps alternating back and forth. A duplex pump system, each <br /> pump pumping 38 gpm against 18.5 feet of head. <br /> DOSE VOLUME <br /> A dose volume of-20%of design flow(425 gals ADF)shall be used=85 gallons. <br /> Use 10 times the lateral void volume: <br /> Lateral dia.= 1.0 in., Lateral length= 50 ft,Number of laterals= 8, Lateral void volume= 0.041 gal/ft <br /> Net Dose Volume= 5 x 50 x 8 x 0.041 = 82 gals/dose. <br /> Floats shall be set to dose an approximate volume of 85 gals/dose <br /> By having orifices in the 12 o'clock position with shields,the pumps will not have to charge the piping <br /> network at the time of every dose. <br /> E. MONITORING <br /> Two inspection ports or observation tubes shall be installed within the mound system to observe <br /> the sand filter-effluent interface for effluent ponding. The tubes are to be"inverted tees" and be 4 <br /> in. PVC. One-eighth inch screens are to be placed on each open end of the tubes and pea gravel <br /> placed in front of the screens to prevent infiltration of sand from the sand filter material. <br /> V. CONCLUSIONS, RECOMMENDATIONS AND MAINTENANCE <br /> SSS§ 5.4. The soils underlying the proposed mound system disposal area for the Southwinds <br /> Church show acceptable permeability that can be considered exceptional for the short-term, <br /> considering the clay soil type. For the long-term acceptance rate, the permeability of the soils will no <br /> doubt slow based on the numerous factors described, but primarily due to future biomat formation. <br /> Lthis <br /> gn considerations have been incorporated into the construction of the mound system to mitigate <br /> omparatively rapid permeability. After native soil preparation as described, four inches of peat <br /> rial shall be laid down over the basal area footprint of the mound. The filter sand is then to be <br /> lled on top of this peat material. <br /> § 4.2 From the soil chemistry test results, it appears that there is denitrification <br /> tial wi n the soil profile down to the water table depth, based upon the soil organic matter <br /> nt, the soil pH and the soil cation exchange capacity. <br /> 16 <br /> Chesney Consulting <br />
