included in the equation may not reflect the true nitrate reduction experienced as <br /> the effluent travels down through a larger vadose zone. <br /> For greater protection of the ground water, it is recommended that only a shallow septic <br /> system utilizing leach lines or a filter bed be installed rather than deep seepage pits. It <br /> is the professional opinion of Live Oak that, based on the factors discussed above, <br /> effluent from a shallow septic system on the subject Site is unlikely to contribute <br /> significantly to a build-up of nitrate in the ground water. If seepage pits are desired to <br /> economize on space, the system should be engineered for nitrate mitigation. <br /> LOGE 1930 Page 13 <br />
