PERCOLATION TEST RESULTS <br /> SSS§ 6.2. To assess the permeability of the subsurface soils in the proposed leachfield area,the <br /> percolation test boring was completed in the location depicted on the Tentative Map found in <br /> Appendix C. <br /> SSS§6.3. After drilling,the sidewall of the perc test boring was scored with a pry-bar to open <br /> potentially smeared soil surfaces and the cuttings removed. Two inches of pea gravel was placed <br /> at the bottom and a three-inch perforated PVC pipe was inserted in the test boring. After these <br /> procedures,the boring was pre-saturated with 12 inches of water approximately 24 hrs prior to the <br /> start of testing. <br /> SSS§ 6.4,6.5. On June 3, 2019,percolation testing commenced at 0700 hrs. No standing water <br /> was observed after the 24-hr soak period. Consequently, EHD Perc Test Procedure#2 was <br /> conducted. Testing was done over a four-hour period to induce maximum soil saturation. <br /> A summary of the perc test results with corresponding application rates in gallons of effluent <br /> accepted per square foot of soil per day are illustrated below in Table 2: <br /> TABLE 2 <br /> PERCOLATION TEST RESULTS WITH CORRESPONDING ® <br /> APPLICATION RATES IN GALLONS /FT'/DAY <br /> 36 INCH DEEP PERC TEST BORING 20.8 min/inch / 0.643 gallons/ft/day <br /> PERCOLATION RATE/APPLICATION RATE <br /> Application Rates adapted from Waste Quality Control for Siting,Design,Operation and Matntenance of On-site Wastewater Treatment Systems,based on the Perc Rate. <br /> Page-3- <br /> Chesney Consulting <br />
