Mr . Ted Norgard - 2 - August 28 . 1995 <br /> particular reason for concern if future developments are <br /> required to comply with the well-considered permit system <br /> currently in force . <br /> " ( 2 ) The suitability of the soil for development utilizing <br /> septic systems ; " <br /> Percolation tests were made on each of the two parcels <br /> established by MS 92-145 , in accord with the PERCOLATION <br /> TEST PROCEDURE (Form No . EH 05 10 9/84 - Procedure ) pro- <br /> vided by your office. <br /> For the first set of tests , two separate test holes were <br /> dug for each parcel . Each of the four ( 4 ) holes was <br /> nominally six ( 6 ) inches in diameter and thirty six ( 36 ) <br /> inches deep. A two ( 2 ) inch laver of crushed rock was <br /> Placed at the bottom of each hole . No shallow or perched <br /> water was encountered during digging of the test holes . <br /> The numbers shown in the "DEPTH TO FIRST WATER" spaces <br /> indicate the amount of water, in inches , that was placed <br /> in each hole the evening before for the presoak. <br /> Location of the test holes on Parcel 1 are shown on Page <br /> 1 of Attachment C . Location of the test holes on Parcel <br /> 2 are shown on Page 3 of Attachment C . <br /> The four test holes were presoaked by filling with water <br /> the evening before the tests were made . All were dry the <br /> following morning when the first set of percolation rate <br /> tests were started. <br /> Using Procedure #2 - as described in PERCOLATION RATE <br /> PROCEDURES , your Form EH 05 10 , percolation rates were <br /> measured at Holes 3 and 4 on Parcel 1 ( See Attachment C , <br /> Pages 1 and 2 ) and at Holes 1 and 2 located on Parcel 2 <br /> ( See Attachment C , Pages 3 and 4 ) for a period of about <br /> four ( 4 ) hours . Results were as follows : <br /> Results of Percolation Rate Tests <br /> inches hour minutes/inch <br /> Parcel #1 Hole #3 - 12 . 3 in/hr 4 . 9 min/inch <br /> Hole #4 - 5 . 7 in/hr 10 . 5 min/inch <br /> Parcel #2 Hole #1 - 15 . 0 in/hr 4 . 0 min/inch <br /> Hole #2 - 14 . 0 in/hr 4 . 3 min/inch <br />
