Septic Tank Hydraulic detention Time <br /> I <br /> Detention Time = 1,200 t,al septic tank capacity x 0.70 (30%volume lost to sludeelscum accumulation) <br /> j 2.5 (Peaking Factor) x 150 gals/day ADF <br /> Detention Time= 2.2 days. The minimum acceptable detention time is 1.0 days. Therefore, a <br /> 1,200 gallon septic tank is adequate. <br /> Primary and 100% Replacement Filter Bed Area <br /> The filter bed area is calculated in the procedure described in Section 8.7 of the San Joaquin <br /> Document 42-01-004: Calculation Requirements County Sewage Standards and EHD Docu 4 s for Commercial <br /> otic Systems: <br /> Base Tank Capacity (BTC) = 1,200 gals <br /> I Lineal Feet of Leachline (LFLL) = 1,200 BTC + 150 ADF x 0.225 Soil Factor based on clay loam <br /> soil, or a silty clay/clayey silt = 303 LFLL <br /> Filter Bed Area = 303 x_3,5 = 1,000 square feet;_ qtq 14fitetor of 3.5 is.used to nrlruluteJiher bed <br /> area since the c1Titent accepting soil is not sant (3)and not ckn- (4), bite rather u cltiv.loatn which <br /> IS it silt•clay-clan ey silt, and therefore given.cr factor 3.5. The primary filter be area is proposed <br /> to be rectangular in area: 10 ft x 100 ft = 1,000 sq. ft, and manifolded in the center,so that half the <br /> effluent is distributed 50 feet to the,north and 50 feet to the south. Therefore, each Infiltrator <br /> Chamber length will be 50 feet long. There will be three chambers on either side of the center <br /> manifold. <br /> The filter bed area may also correspond with the percolation test results. As referenced above, the <br /> application rate correlated with the shallow pere test results of 120 mpi translate to an application <br /> rate of 0.20 gals/ft`/day. Using the ADF of 150 gpd, we find: 150 gpd- 0.20 galstft-/clay = 750 sq. i <br /> ft. filter bed. Therefore, the filter bed size of 1,000 sq. ft. is adequate based on the test results <br /> obtained. i <br /> The 100% replacement area is directly south of the primary filter bed area, and is also to consist of <br /> 1,000 sq. ft. Equipment may be stored in this area; however, there can be no permanent fixtures, or <br /> underground utilities in this area. <br /> Wastewater Disposal System Parameters and Appurtenances <br /> Infiltrator Chambers: 34"x 75"x 12"; Filter Bed = 1,200" (100') + 75" = 16 Chambers x 3 rows= 48 Chamber <br /> Zabel or Orenco Filtration from septic tank to filter bed (EHD Requirement) <br /> As-Builts of entire system by installer after installation (EHD Requirement) <br /> Monitoring of soil/effluent interface with monitoring ports within the filter bed area with observation <br /> tubes: 4" PVC Tee at soil/effluent interface with a 4" riser flush with the grass surface and a screw- <br /> type cap, (EHD Requirement) <br /> Filter bed should be at grade with surrounding soil surface. <br /> Page -7- <br /> Chesney Consultirr,; <br />
