C. WASTEWATER,DISPOSAL SYSTEM <br /> OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS AND COMPONENTS <br /> SSS§:3.7: The design of pressurized chambered filter bed disposal system-for the Winery facility <br /> 1� :. <br /> f is based upon the factors.of efficient operation, disposal field longevity, and environmental''protection. <br /> --An overview of the system operation is as follows: Influentwaste from each-of the buildings <br /> referenced on Pages 14 and 15 will enter standard septic tanks.that have'yet-to be installed next to <br /> existing lift stations. effluent from these tanks will then gravity-'flow into these existing lift <br /> stations to be pumped to another existing lift station, directly north of the°Office Trailers.`4This lift <br /> station is used to pump influent up t on the mound system.✓It,is now proposed to use this <br /> lift station to pump clarified effluent ,500 fee to the east to the new disposal are Here, the pumped <br /> f' effluent will enter the first compartmen o a standard concrete Z aU11 ^nz monolithic, two <br /> compartment septic.tank to primarily reduce the energyof the pumped effluent. The second <br /> compartment will settle any carryover particulate matter: An efflue films shall be installed in this <br /> second compartment. From this second compartment; the effluent will gravity to a standard concrete <br /> 1,200i-gallon, monolithic, single compartmentseptic pump chaml�r.tank This' ump chain er tank <br /> -will have an Orenco BioTube filter vault, with a�dunlex pumn system to pump and pressurize the <br /> effluent. The two pumps wiU alternate between six chambered filter bed cells, as depicted on the Site <br /> Plans.' <br /> . 1a <br /> As calculated below, each chambered filter bed cell is to be 34A east-west with a total of 13 rows of <br /> chambers north.-to-south...As noted, each chamberJi actually 53 inches.long, but when connected <br /> together, the usable length is 4 ft (4 ft x 8 chambers +2 ft end caps='34:ft). Each cell is: 34 ftE-W x <br /> (13 laterals w/34 inch wide chambers +.6 inch separation-43.3 ft North-South/cell) x 3 cells N-S = <br /> 130 ft N-S. Total number of chambers — 8 chambers-per lateral E-W x 13 chambers/cell = 104 <br /> chambers/cell x six cells — 624 chambers. <br /> Reviewing the percolation rates,and more particularly the application rates illustrated in Table 2 on <br /> -`Pa e 7 we find an average application rate of 0:4°87' allons/ . - a tit at can-the r tically be accepted <br /> g � g PP $- ��t <br /> throughout the soil profile. Each dose volume is calculated t e 186 gals (See P : 20) dependent upon <br /> the float settings.; If we take a maximum theoretical single dose o , deposited equally over <br /> one filterbed. cell of 971 sq.ft (area under 10.4 chambers,,one-sixth the total number), the application <br /> rate is: 186 gals 971 ft' = 0.192'gallons/ft2 x (13.4 doses/day- 6`cells =.-2.2 doses/day/cell) = 0.422 <br /> galloxis/ftJday,_or comparable to the soil pxofile application rate. <br /> C TANKS <br /> SEPTI <br /> Septic tanks store the accumulated sludge, scum and effluent(clear zone)volumes, which in turn <br /> affect treatment of nitrogen within the tanks, as documented in this study. In the following <br /> calculation, the retention time for effluent within the septic tanks is determined to be approximately <br /> one day, which is acceptable. It is noted, that each building will:have its own septic tank to capture <br /> and_ret.ain solids before pumping to the last lift station. The volume of these.tanks have not been <br /> :taken into consideration_in the.calculations below. Only thelastlift_station of approximately 1,000 <br /> gallons; the 2,000-gallon tank adjacent to the disposal area,-and-the 1200..gallon dosing/pump <br /> - ... chamber tank are used in the following calculation:= <br /> Chesney Consulting <br />
