0��� 7 <br /> IV. SEPTIC SYSTEM DESIGN: OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS AND COMPONENTS <br /> A. PROPOSED SEPTIC SYSTEM DESIGN <br /> SSS§ 3.7. The design of the leachline/leachfield disposal system is based upon the factors for <br /> efficient operation, disposal field longevity, and environmental protection. An overview of the <br /> system operation to serve the proposed facility is as follows and illustrated on the accompanying <br /> plans: Influent from the Restrooms will flow into a P&L Concrete, Inc. standard precast, 1,200 <br /> gallon septic tank. A Polylok, Inc. PL-68 effluent filter is to be installed at the outlet of this tank. <br /> Clarified effluent will then gravity flow to a leachfield constructed at-grade due to the shallow <br /> water table. <br /> B. SEPTIC TANK AND BLOOD HOLDING TANK <br /> Septic tanks store accumulated sludge, scum and effluent(clear zone) volumes, which in turn <br /> affect treatment of nitrogen within the tanks. Detention time calculations demonstrate that when <br /> the maximum ADF is applied to the existing tank,there remains sufficient detention time: <br /> Detention Time Calculation: <br /> Detention Time= 1200 gal tank capacity x 0.70(30%volume lost to sludge/scum accumulation) <br /> 1.5 (Peaking factor)x 150 gals/day(ADF) <br /> Detention Time=3.7 days. The minimum acceptable detention time is 1.0 day. <br /> The 2,000 gallon blood holding tank will accumulate blood from the slaughtering process. When <br /> the tank is 80%full by direct observation of the tank contents, Sisk Recycling Company will be <br /> called to pump-out the tank and deliver contents to their plant for recycling. <br /> C. LEACHLINE/LEACHFIELD SIZING CALCULATIONS <br /> Base Tank Capacity(BTC)= 1,200 gal. Leachline Equivalent Requirement= 1,200 gallons BTC <br /> + 150 gpd max ADF x 0.250 clay loam Soil Factor(SF)= 338 lineal feet of leachline (LFLL). <br /> Install three, 100 ft leachlines. <br /> 0 <br /> D. 100% REPLACEMENT/RESERVE AREA <br /> The ample replacement area is located directly to the west of the primary disposal field, as noted <br /> on the plans. <br /> Page-7- <br /> Chesney Consultin; <br />
