Dear Mr. Lowery*
technical assistance visit was conducted for three Union County Public School System
wastewater treatment plants on December 8, 1997. The facilities visited were Parkwood;
Middle School (NCO 3fl 51); New Salem Elementary (NCO030597), and Fairview
Element CO03053 . The primary focus of the visit was to identify operational air
design problems that could contribute to the facilities' noncompliance with their l` P IFS
permits and to suggest possible corrective actions. It is our understanding that these three
facilities will not be connected to nearby sever systems in upcoming onst ction. has a
result of the visit, the following comments or recommendations am offered _
1 g The septic tank at Parlrwood Middle school is receiving flow from bath the middle
school and the high school, The flow from the high school is treated in a separate
septic tank prior to flowing into the septic tank at the middle school. This additional
flow may decrease the efficiency of the second septic tank in terms of Biochemical
Oxygen Demand l I removal and place a higher BOD loading on the recirculating
sand filter. A higher BOD loading going to the Ater would reduce the ammonia
removal efficiency of the filter. If the septic tank at the high school is properly sued
d no additional treatment is achieved by passing the high school flow through the
middle school septic tank the flow from the high school should be repiped around the
middle school septic tank directly to the dosing chamber or sand filter:
2. t the time of visitation the sand filter at Parltwood Middle School was saturated with
water and appeared to be slightly septic. The nitrifying bacteria in the sand filter need'
an aerobic environment to function properly. An aerobic condition will not exist if the
sand filter is always saturated with septic tank effluent, A detailed investigation should
be conducted to determine if the filter are operating as designed. The school system's
consultant or Mr. Bob l eweese of the Department of Public Instruction should be
contacted for assistance.

four Feet below ground surface, Strict adherence to the application rates should prevent saturated
conditions and allow proper percolation ofthe waste water, We recommend issuance of the
permit with the following conditions:
L Prier to b eginning waste disposal operations, three m nitor wells, one
upgradient and one 1 downgradient, shall be installed to monitor groundwater
quality. The well(s) shall be constructed in the bedrock aquifer'and such that the

REFERENCE: I% SCIENTIST EVALUATION
New Salem Elementary School
S&ME, Inc, Project No. 15 - 4-001
Dear Mr. Horsman
&CIE, Inc, E) has conducted e soil scientist evaluation at the New Salem
Elementary School for the Union County School System. A soil scientist evaluation was
conducted on Monday, February 7, 1994. 'he purpose of the evaluation was to provide
additional information in response to Item 6 of the State of North Carolina's Division of
Environmental Management's (E "letter of January 5, 1994. The DEM letter addresses
additional information necessary concerning application number WQ0008767.
METHODSAND PROCEDURES
A soil evaluation of the site was performed by visual inspection and selection, placement
and augering of approximately eight soil borings within the proposed area of the drip
irrigation facility. The soil borings were conducted to provide information for the soil
hydraulic conductivity within the most restrictive horizon of the soil profile.:
Composite soil samples were also collected from within the surface horizon
(approximately the top 4 inches) NS-1A and from within the most retrictive horizon (on
average approximately 20 to 24 inches) -1 (Attachment 1). Each of these samples
were submitted to A L Eastern Agricultural Laboratories, Inc. (A ) for cation exchange
capacity ( E ) and soil pH analysis.

Soil Scientist Evaluation 1588-94-001
Union County Schools February 14, 1994
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Upon conducting the soil borings and evaluating soil texture, soil structure and soil
consistence it was determined that within the most restrictive horizon, 20 to 24 inches on
average, hydraulic conductivity ranges from 0.6 to 2.0 inches per hour. This range of
hydraulic conductivity is typical of soils that exhibit silty clay loam to silty clay texture and
contain weak fine to weak medium subangular blocky structure.
Two samples were submitted to A&L labs for CEC and pH. Sample NS-1 A was from the
surface soil and has a CEC of 4.4 milliequivalents per 100 grams of soil ( 4.4
meq/100g) and a pH of _.a.4 standard units. Sample NS-18 was from the subsurface
soil within the most restrictive horizon and has a CEC of 7.4 milliequivalents per 100
grams of soil ( —
-1—.4 meq/100 g) and a pH of 4.8 standard units.
Appendix 11 contains a detailed soil profile description of typical soil characteristics within
the proposed area of the drip irrigation facility. According to available Soil Conservation
Service mapping, the proposed area for the drip irrigation facility is mapped as a Badin -
Goldston complex.

Dear Mr.Smith:
Inca ( has conducted a second soil scientist evaluation at the New Salem
Elementary School for the Union County School System. >tA soil scientist evaluation was
conducted initially on Thursday, March 25, 1993 and soils were reevaluated on
Wednesday, dune 30, 1993. The purpose of the evaluations was to determine the
suitability of the soils with regard to the installation of subsurface disposal and treatment
systems.
METHODS AND PROCEDURES
second soil scientist evaluation was performed in the presence of Mr. Joe Lynn of the
North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources, Mr. David
Cunningham of the Union County Environmental Health Department, and Mr. Bryan
Smith. This evaluation was once again performed on a 3 to 5 acre area adjacent to the
southern border of the existing school property. A total of approximately 25 auger
borings were made to a depth of 3 to 4 feet. Previously a detailed boring was made to
a depth of 7 feet or to below the "C" horizon and included soil texture, color,a and epth,
thickness,. type f restrictive horizon(s)structure if present, a consistence, bound
depth of seasonal high water table. A copy of this detailed soil profile description is
attached. Soils in this area were described to the series level using current United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Soil Conservation Service ( - oil Ta onornv
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Soils classified within the most suitable off -site area are most like the Badin series. The
soils classified have been classified as Badin variant,, The Badin varlant is well drained
and is located within an upland area adjacent to the New Salem Elementary School
(Figure a Badin is formed in residuum weathered from fine -pained rods, such as
a rillite and gray sac e sandstone, that are classed as Carolina slatesp No seasonal high
water table was noted within the profile description. The following is a detailed soil profile
description of the Badin variant found on the site:
