Wastewater Treatment System `� `- <br /> �� FALL CREEK <br /> Engineering Report ENGINEERING,INC. <br /> 3.1. Parabolic Screen <br /> r. <br /> '�► The parabolic screen will be used to remove coarse solids from the process wastewater. The <br /> r„ manufacturer will size the screen the to handle at least 35 gallons per minute of winery process <br /> %W wastewater. Screen slot openings will be 0.010" and constructed of wire with round rod <br /> supports. The screen body will be constructed of stainless steel plate. <br /> 3.2. Septic Tank <br /> ti <br /> The new 5,000-gallon septic tank will settle screened wastewater. The tank will be used for <br /> wastewater stabilization and limited anaerobic digestion. Table 3.1 shows the expected detention <br /> times in the septic tank for monthly flows. During the months of crush (August through <br /> November) detention times range from 2 to 5 days. In the summer months, detention time is <br /> considerably longer because little if any process and storm water enter the system. Occasionally <br /> during the winter,detention time could be as little as one day due to stormwater entering the <br /> system. <br /> Table 3.1 Septic Tank Detention Times <br /> Septic Detention <br /> Month Inflow Time <br /> %W (gpd) (days) <br /> January 3,516 1.4 <br /> February 3,843 1.3 <br /> March 2,741 1.8 <br /> _ April 1,374 3.6 <br /> May 739 6.8 <br /> ' June 259 19.3 <br /> July 198 25.3 <br /> August 1,002 5.0 <br /> September 1,908 2.6 <br /> .., October 2,442 2.0 <br /> November 2,579 1.9 <br /> Decemberl 3,079 1 1.6 <br /> It is recommended that the Winery have the water treatment septic tank pumped at least once a <br /> year. The optimal time for septic pumping would be in late October or November once the <br /> majority of the crush has been completed. This will remove the accumulated solids from the <br /> process period and will reduce solids resuspension during higher winter flows. <br /> 3.3. Water Balance Calculations <br /> Monthly water balance calculations were performed for the wetland, grass disposal area, and <br /> `• stormwater detention area at Jessie's Grove Winery. Each element in the water balance <br /> (wetland, grass, and stormwater detention area) has inflows and outflows. Inflows come from <br /> process water, stormwater, rainfall, and overflow from the proceeding element. Outflows <br /> include infiltration, evaporation, and overflow to the succeeding element.
