PERCOLATION TEST RESULTS <br /> SSS 6.2 The aforementioned percolation test boring was completed in the location depicted on <br /> thea ched Site Plan to assess the permeability of the proposed disposal area soils. <br /> SSS6.3 After drilling the test boring,the sidewall was scored with a pry-bar to open potentially <br /> sme sidewalls. Two inches of fine gravel was placed at the bottom and three-inch dia. perforated <br /> PVC pipe was inserted in the test boring. After drilling, the test boring was pre-saturated with 12 <br /> inches of water,24 hrs prior to the start of testing. Maximum soil saturation conditions were <br /> achieved to determine the saturated permeability of the indigenous clay loam soil. <br /> SSS§64� On August 18, 2016, percolation testing commenced at 0615 hrs. No standing water <br /> was o served after the 24-hr soak period. Consequently, EHD Perc Test Procedure#2 was <br /> conducted whereby testing was done over a four-hour period with readings taken every 30 minutes. <br /> A summary of the pert test results with corresponding application rates in gallons of effluent <br /> accepted per square foot of soil per day are illustrated in Table 2. The corresponding application rate <br /> was obtained from Page 24 of the OWTS Policy- Water Quality Control Policy for Siting. Design, <br /> Operation, and Maintenance of Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems. <br /> TABLE 2 <br /> PERCOLATION TEST RESULTS WITH CORRESPONDING SOIL TYPE, <br /> PERCOLATION RATE AND APPLICATION RATE IN GALLONS /FT2/ DAY <br /> 36 INCH DEEP PERC TEST BORING 19.2 mi inch / 0.671 gallons/ft/day <br /> LEAN CLAY/LOAM <br /> 3 <br />
