Property location: The Hills of Rosemont Lot 50. Dear Sir: The Chatham County Health Department, Environmental Health Division on November 14, 2003, evaluated the above -referenced property at the site designated on the plat/site plan that accompanied your improvement permit application. According to your application the site is to serve a 5-bedroom residence, with a design wastewater flow of 600 gallons per day. The evaluation was done in accordance with the laws and rules governing wastewater systems in North Carolina General Statute 130A-333 including related statutes and Title 15A, Subchapter 18A, of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Rule. 1900 and related rules. Based on the criteria set out in Title 15A, Subchapter 18A, of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Rules .1940 through .1948, the evaluation indicated that the site is UNSUITABLE for a ground absorption sewage system. Therefore, your request for an improvement permit is DENIED. A copy of the site evaluation is enclosed. The site is unsuitable based on the following: Unsuitable soil topography and/or landscape position (Rule .1940) �x Unsuitable soil characteristics (structure or clay mineralogy) (Rule .1941) Unsuitable soil wetness condition (Rule .1942) Unsuitable soil depth (Rule .1943) Presence of restrictive horizon (Rule .1944) Insufficient space for septic system and repair area (Rule .1945) Unsuitable for meeting required setbacks (Rule .1950) Other (Rule .1946) These severe soil or site limitations could cause premature system failure, leading to the discharge of untreated sewage on the ground surface, into surface waters, directly to ground water or inside your structure. The site evaluation included consideration of possible site modifications, and modified, innovative or alternative systems. However, the Health Department has determined that none of the above options will overcome the severe conditions on this site. A possible option might be a system designed to dispose of sewage to another area of suitable soil or off -site to additional property. Dorothy Cilenti, MSw, MPH HEALTH DIRECTOR For the reasons set out above, the property is currently classified UNSUITABLE, and no improvement permit shall be issued for this site in accordance with Rule .1948(c). However, the site classified as UNSUITABLE may be classified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE if written documentation is provided that meets the requirements of Rule .1948(d). A copy of this rule is enclosed. You may hire a consultant to assist you if you wish to try to develop a plan under which your site. could be reclassified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE. You have a right to an informal review of this decision. You may request an informal review by the soil scientist or environmental health supervisor at the local health department. You may also request an informal review by the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources regional soil specialist. A request for informal review must be made in writing to the local health department. You also have a right to a formal appeal of this decision. To pursue a formal appeal, you must file a petition for a contested case hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714.

A query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. These results are presented in the attached 'Documented Occurrences' tables and map. The attached 'Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mite radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report. If a Federally -listed species is documented within the project area or indicated within a one -mile radius of the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here: https://www.fws.00v/offices/Directory/Li5tDff1Cgs CtM?statecodo=37. Piease note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission. Also please note that the NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Ciean Water Management Trust Fund easement, or an occurrence of a Federally -listed species is documented near the project area.

The Owner(s) has been informed that the property is not suitable for a subsurface wastewater disposal system, and therefore proposes to construct a surface drip irrigation system utilizing a septic tank, E-Z Treat recirculating media filter, E-Z Treat recirculation tank, field dosing tank, E- Z Set drip irrigation system, E-Z Set drip irrigation tubing and the necessary appurtenances. Proper soils investigation was performed at the site. The most recent soils investigation was performed by Mr. Ricky Pontello of Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) in 2017. A copy of the report can be found in the Soils Evaluation section of this application package. The lot was previously permitted for a 5-bedroom (600 GPD) single family residence surface irrigation permit in 2003 and 2010; copies can be found in the Existing Information section of this application package. However, the owner wishes to increase the amount of available recreational space in the backyard which has led to this redesign of the previously permitted system. We found the lot has sufficient treatment and disposal capability for a five -bedroom dwelling with 20% flow reduction. The treatment system will be sized for a 5-bedroom dwelling with unadjusted flow of 600 GPD, and the irrigation system will be sized for the adjusted flow of 480 GPD. A flow reduction request will be attached to this report. The proposed wastewater treatment and disposal systern maintains all the setbacks required in the 15A NCAC 02T .0600 rules amended September 1, 2006. The proposed systems shall meet all of the requirements and specifications outlined in: Innovative Wastewater System Approval No: IWWS-2015-03-R2 and Innovative Wastewater System Approval No: IWWS-2007-1-R1. Peter Nolan Surface Drip Irrigation Redesign MacConnell & Associates, P.C. Project No.: A75801.00 Septic, E-Z Treat Recirculation, and Field Dosing Tank The proposed wastewater treatment system will provide both anaerobic treatment and solids removal in a new 1,500 gallon septic tank. This tank will provide greater than 48 hours of detention providing for adequate anaerobic treatment and solids removal from the wastewater. Septic tank effluent will drain into the E-Z Treat recirculation tank as wastewater flows into the septic tank. The septic tank will contain a Polylok PL-68, SIM/TECH STF-110 or approved equal effluent filter to prevent solids from reaching the E-Z Treat recirculation tank. The E-Z Treat recirculation tank is a new 1,000 gallon pump tank. The E-Z Treat recirculation tank will serve as a holding tank for both the septic tank effluent and E-Z Treat treatment unit effluent. An effluent bypass valve located in the E-Z Treat recirculation tank will separate the flow once the E-Z Treat treatment unit is dosed. The effluent will be returned to the E-Z Treat recirculation tank until the bypass valve is closed, the remaining effluent will then flow to a field dosing tank. Effluent will be recirculated through the E-Z Treat treatment unit until additional septic tank effluent enters the E-Z Treat recirculation tank causing the bypass valve to close. The field dosing tank is a new 4,500 gallon tank. The influent to the field dosing tank will be disinfected prior to entering the tank to prevent re -growth within the tank. The field dosing tank will provide greater than 5 days of storage time per 15A NCAC 02T .0605 (m). E-Z Treat Treatment Unit The Model 600 E-Z Treat treatment unit will be used to provide additional treatment to the septic tank effluent as well as removing any suspended solids not removed by the septic tank. The E-Z Treat treatment unit includes housing, piped distribution system, sprinkler heads, and styrene media. The underdrain system will transport the E-Z Treat treatment unit effluent back through an effluent bypass valve into one of the dosing tanks. Ultraviolet Disinfection The effluent from the E-Z Treat recirculation tank will be disinfected by ultraviolet light prior to entering the field dosing tank and being irrigated. The ultraviolet disinfection unit shall be by E- Z Treat (Model E-Z UV 101) or approved equal by engineer. E-Z Set Drip Wastewater Drip Irrigation System The E-Z Set drip irrigation system consists of the field dosing controls, vortex filter, hydraulic unit, and pump used to dose the irrigation zones. The system controls determine when the pump doses the disposal field. The vortex filter provides even greater filtration to insure that solids in the effluent do not clog the drip irrigation line emitters. The drip field will require fill to meet the vertical distance from the perched seasonal high-water table Peter Nolan Surface Drip Irrigation Redesign MacConnell & Associates, P.C. Project No.: A7580IM Drip Irrigation Lines The drip irrigation lines are dosed by the hydraulic unit. These lines consist of a hollow pipe filled with pressure compensating drip emitters spaced on two -foot intervals. These emitters insure that there is uniform distribution of the treated wastewater throughout the irrigation zones. The drip lines will follow the contour lines at three-foot horizontal spacing and make a complete loop back to the dosing tank. This insures that proper pressure is maintained in the drip lines and that there is a means for flushing the lines in the instance that they become clogged. Rain Sensor A Hunter Mini-Clik rain sensor is included in the wastewater design to ensure that irrigation does not occur during precipitation events.

Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC) has determined the location and characteristics of a site that is potentially useable for a pretreatment surface drip irrigation wastewater system in conjunction with an existing previously permitted surface drip area outside of the proposed site impacts. This report details S&EC findings and provides the necessary soil/site information needed for a drip irrigation system to be designed by a professional engineer. This fieldwork was completed in May and June 2017. The previously permitted portion of the system field is outlined in red on the accompanying AutoCAD map (Appendix 2). The proposed additional suitable soil area is shown as a blue hatched polygon. Within the blue hatched area, two red cross- hatched polygons indicate areas where suitable fill material will be incorporated into the landscape to improve the topography of those areas. The map also shows the locations where measurements of saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) and the deep soil borings were performed. The combined, general area proposed for the system is 27,656 square feet. The proposed pretreatment surface drip area meets all of the remaining setbacks required for surface drip systems by the state of North Carolina. This site is located in the Triassic Basin geologic unit of Chatham County. Appendix 1 contains the locations and limited field data of auger borings that were performed to determine soil map units that were present on the site. Upland soils on the site are generally similar to the Carbonton soil series. Carbonton soils are generally unsuitable for subsurface septic systems. However, the soil characteristics of the surface horizons with the addition of approved fill in some areas offer the opportunity for a pretreatment surface drip septic system. In essence, the permeability of the subsoil is the limiting factor in the design of a pretreatment surface drip system. The soil condition of the proposed drip area is also described in the accompanying Ksat location soil profile descriptions (Appendix 3). The upper boundaries of the perched water table varied across the site. The landscape position for the proposed pretreatment surface drip system is on a side slope. Based on the Ksat measurements, the attached water balance (Appendix 4) shows that the site can hydraulically assimilate 15.75 inches of irrigation water per year. S&EC recommends a loading rate of 0.303 inches per week or 15.75 inches per year. Therefore, a 5- bedroom house (600 gallons per day design flow) would require approximately 22,302 square feet of wetted area for surface drip irrigation application. The maximum instantaneous application rate should not exceed 0.35 inches per hour (to keep consistent with previously permitted area). Measurements of saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) were conducted within the most restrictive soil horizon in the proposed wetted area, which was the Bt. Overall geometric mean Ksat data is shown in Appendix 5a while Ksat field data is shown in Appendix 5b of this report. A minimum of 8 inches of fill is required to be incorporated into the two indicated areas on the site plan. The fill material must have a soil texture of sandy loam in order to establish vegetative cover and must contain no more than 10% by volume fibrous organics, or other debris. The fill material and the existing soil shall be mixed to a depth of six inches below their interface. All heavy vegetative cover and organic litter will be removed from the existing soil surface before fill material is added. The side slope of the fill shall not exceed a rise to run ratio of 1:4. The fill berm will be constructed so it sheds surface water and will be stabilized with a vegetative cover. Site disturbance should be absolutely minimized on the area to be used for the drip application of wastewater. Site disturbance could create unsuitable conditions for a drip irrigation system. A permanent vegetative cover should be immediately established and maintained over the entire application field after installation. Calculations 1. Maximum Instantaneous Application Rate (in/hr) Utilizing Table 1 (see attached) for typical ranges of soil infiltration rates. The Carbonton soils fall into the Sandy Loam class in the 9+"/o slope range. This infiltration rate is 0.3 to 0.5 in/hr. The recommended rate is therefore 0.35 in/hr. 2. Water Balance A water balance was developed for the proposed drip irrigation field by balancing water losses and gains: Evapotranspiration + Drainage = Precipitation + Irrigation A. Potential Evapotranspiration (PET) PET was calculated using the Thornwaite Method as outlined in the water balance spreadsheet provided by NC DWR_ B. Drainage (DR) The drainage term was determined utilizing guidance set forth by a committee within DWR (The Single Family Residence Workgroup). Based on discussions within this committee, 4 classes of soils are proposed based on in - situ Ksat values. The measured values for this lot fall into the SFR-C group (an allowable irrigation range of 13.0-19.5 inches per year). A drainage coefficient of 30% of the measured Ksat in the most restrictive soil horizon was therefore utilized to yield an annual loading rate of 15.75 inches per year. Three Ksat data nests were used to determine the recommended Ksat value. Each of these data points were performed within the Bt and C horizons of the Carbonton soils. The BC horizon in all of the soil borings was too thin to test. The geometric mean Ksat value used by S&EC is 0.011 in/hr (Bt horizon in the Carbonton). C. Precipitation (PPT) Average monthly precipitation rates were obtained from the RDU International Weather Station, determined over a fifty-eight year period (see water balance data sheet). Monthly precipitation values from the 80th percentile were used in the water balance. Input for this figure is based on 31, 30, and 28 day months. Specifications: Assumed Design flow - 600 gal/day Allowable Irrigation Rate — 0.303 in/week Total minimum area needed for drip field — 22,302 sf (wetted area) Maximum Instantaneous Application Rate- 0.35 in/hr The area required is the minimum wetted area needed for treated wastewater application. This report discusses the general location of potentially useable soils for on -site surface wastewater disposal and, of course, does not constitute or imply any approval or permit as needed by the client from the State. S&EC is a professional consulting firm that specializes in the delineation of soil areas for wastewater disposal. As a professional consulting firm, S&EC is hired for its professional opinion in these matters. The rules governing wastewater treatment (interpreted and governed by local and state agencies) are evolving constantly, and in many cases, affected by the opinions of individuals employed by these governing agencies. Because of this, S&EC cannot guarantee that areas delineated and/or systems designed will be permitted by the governing agencies, As always, S&EC recommends that anyone making financial commitments on a tract be fully aware of individual permit requirements on that tract prior to final action. An individual septic system permit will be required prior to obtaining a building permit. This will involve a detailed evaluation by the State to determine, among other things, system size and layout, drive/parking and building location. Only after developing this information can a final determination be made concerning specifics of system design and site utilization.

The three tank configuration consists of three separate tanks: a septic tank, a recirculation tank, and a final dosing tank. 3. The E-Z Treat Pretreatment system consists of a septic tank, a recirculation tank/chamber, a final dosing tank/chamber, and E-Z Treat media pod(s) as specified in Table I below. Table 1— Model 600 and Tank Volumes Design Daily Flow (gpd) Minimum Septic Tank Volume (gallons) Minimum Recirculation/Pump Tank Volume (gallons) Number of Media Pods < 480 1,000 1,250 1 Model 600 pod 4 Bedrooms 1,000 1,800 1 Model 600 pod 5 Bedrooms 1,250 2,000 1 Model 600 pod 6 Bedrooms 1,500 2,200 2 Model 600 pods 601-1,500 V = 1.17Q* + 500 V = 1.17Q + 500 1 Model 600 pod per 600 gallons 1,501 — 3,000 V = 0.75Q + 1,125 V = 0.75Q + 1,125 1 ModeI 600 pod per 600 gallons *Q — design daily flow **Recirculation/pump tank minimum size based on total internal tank volume. 4. Septic tanks will have an inlet sanitary tee and a Department approved, appropriately sized effluent filter on the outlet end approved by the E-Z Treat Company for use with the E-Z Treat. 5. The minimum required volume in the recirculation chamber/tank prior to discharge to the dosing tank/chamber shall be the design daily flow. 6. The recirculation tank/chamber will contain the recirculating splitter valve or an external splitter box may be used. The recirculation tanklchamber shall have an inlet sanitary tee. The sanitary tee shall be visible and reachable from the riser opening to serve as the influent sampling point. 7. When the recirculation tank and dosing tank are combined, the baffle wall between chambers shall extend to the top of the tank and shall be constructed so that the liquid levels in either compartment are independent. Liquids will not by-pass between compartments except as designated by the system's treatment flow path. 8. The final dosing tank must meet the minimum size requirements of Rule .1952(c)(1). For drip irrigation systems, the requirements of the manufacturer specific drip approval for dosing tanks shall also be met. 9. A drainback configuration without a pump check valve is required for the force main supplying the media pod. 10. Recirculation pump shall be either Sta-Rite Model number STEP 20 or manufacturer approved equal. 11. The E-Z Treat media pod is constructed of a polymer suitable for use in contact with wastewater. The Model 600 pod is approximately 7 ft 4 inches x 4 ft with a surface area approximately of 30 square feet and is 42 inches in depth. The pod is fitted with a weatherproof cover properly secured. The pod is designed and constructed to create channels down the sidewalls to facilitate air flow. The sidewalI channels provide airspace to the bottom of the pod. The bottom of the vessel is designed to provide total drainage of the treated effluent back to the recirculation tank/chamber. IWWS-2015-03-R2 January 6, 2017 Page 4 of 10 12. As the effluent enters the recirculation tank/chamber, this tank/chamber acts to further separate the septic tank effluent. The effluent entering the recirculation tank/chamber is charged by the recirculation pump to the media pod(s). The effluent is sprayed over the media mattress(es) using a spray manifold of evenly spaced wide-angle spray nozzles. The nozzles are manufactured with a free passage of 0.0625 inches in diameter. The system is set to recirculate effluent through the media pod on an average of 4 to 6 times prior to discharge. 13. The effluent is sprayed on mattress(es) measuring a total area of 30 square feet. The mattress(es) are fabricated from a non -biodegradable, chemically resistant, loose weave polypropylene material. The openings in the weave allows for effluent and air flow while containing the media. The media inside the mattress(es) are made of a styrene material. The specific gravity of this material meets the following criteria: light enough to prevent compaction which results in a loss of effective surface area, and provides a reduction in channeling across the media (short-circuiting). 14. Effluent passes through the media and enters a schedule 40 pipe located at the bottom of the pod. The effluent than gravity feeds back to the recirculation tank/chamber and the process is repeated. 15. The effluent bypass valve or splitter box is piped to intercept filtered wastewater and deliver it to the recirculation tank/chamber or the dosing tank/chamber, based on liquid volumes. I6. The Control Panel for the E-Z Treat System will consist of: recirculation pump on/off timer, discharge pump alarm, and high/low water alarm. Control panels shall meet the requirements of .1952 and shall be approved in writing by E-Z Treat Company for use in their systems. 17. Separate control and alarm circuits will be provided. The E-Z Treat systems will utilize a device for the recording of measurements of daily water flows. The device shall provide a means for determining at least the daily, 7-day, and 30-day flow monitoring requirements of Rule .1970. This information will be stored in the data logger for drip irrigation systems (provided by the manufacturer of the drip irrigation control panel). For pressure manifold and LPP systems, the Aquaworx control panel or manufacturer approved equal shall be used. The operator in responsible charge (ORC) of the system authorized in writing by E-Z Treat Company must be able to access the panel directly on site and shall be available to the LHD with 24-hour notice in the event a direct connection is necessary. 18. The UV disinfection system shall be rated for the appropriate discharge rate from the E-Z Treat pod. The UV disinfection system will be one of the following: a. E-Z Set UV-10005 (single bulb); b.

The connector is folded into the casting position and placed on the reusable heavy-duty solid plastic mandrel that is installed directly to the farm. After the concrete is cured, the form is opened, removing the mandrel from the gasket, but leaving the CAST -A -SEAL 4021402F connector embedded in the concrete. The gasket is then simply unfolded at thejobsite and is tightened around the pipe using the sup- plied stainless steel take-up clamp. • Simple cast -in design provides flexible watertight connection. Eliminates infiltration and exfitration. Improves on -site system performance and minimizes maintenance. Protects groundwater From unintended discharges. Use in on -site treatment structures, grease interceptors, manholes, wet wells, pump and lift stations, stormwater structures, or any application requiring a flexible watertight connector.

The filter is capable of lasting three years under normal conditions. Such factors as garbage disposals, pets, laundry, etc. may cause the need for more frequent inspection or service. Instructions for performing maintenance in standard 4" outlet "Tee" of septic tank. • Before removing filter, one of two options must be performed. These options need to be performed to prevent any outflow of unfiltered effluent from the tank while the filter is removed. Option 1 Insert a STF-130 maintenance sleeve (sold separately) with the handle coupling on the same side of the "Tee" as the outlet hole. Push the sleeve into the "Tee" until the handle coupling hits the top of the "Tee". Do not remove the sleeve until a filter has been put back in the "Tee". Option 2 Have the tank pumped down by a professional septic service company. • After performing one of the options above, remove filter by pulling up on the filter handle. • Place the used filter in the provided plastic bag for proper disposal. • Install a new replacement filter as described in the installation instructions at STF-130 the top of the page.

We achieve superior filtration of the most common solids found in today's wastewater systems with our non -uniform bristle design. This design Is much more efficient than uniform 1 spotted designs which can pass larger more harmful debris into the system. The flexible self-locking gristles make it simple to install and service, even in systems with limited access. They also hold the filter firmly in plate with no need for receivers or canisters and eliminate filter float -up, The filters employs a debris separation space which naturally sorts solids according to size and mass. This mattes the filter function more efficiently and greatly increases its 11"pan. It also allows for biological maturing which is necessary in all wastewater treatment systems. The STF-11 D series .filters use triangular polypropylene bristles wound together with a 316 stainless -steel core. r This makes them durable enough to be serviced and economical enough to be replaced. This provides an economical solution for protecting and servicing all types of wastewater systems at a fraction of the cost of inferior L designs.

In these treatment systems, larger solids contained in the applied effluent are retained within the media by filtration, typically in the upper level of the filter media. A bacterial film forms on the surface of media grains and provides for removal of soluble organic material and small colloidal matter by absorption by the bacteria in the film. Decomposition of the absorbed material occurs during rest periods in the filter, when there is no application of w effluent. The organic material becomes an energy source for the bacteria to maintain them- selves and produce new cells. Over time, as the filter matures, the film layer forms through- out the depth of the filter media and by-products of the biological process pass out of the fil- ter. Re -circulation of the water leaving the filter back through the filter surface provides for additional treatment by the bacteria in the media bed, as well as a mechanism for moving par- tially decomposed organic materials, bacterial waste products and other debris from the fil- ter. This keeps the pore spaces within the media from clogging. Treatment using recirculating media filtration systems is generally an aerobic process and re -aeration of the media, which Vy occurs during the resting (non -dosing) periods, is essential for proper treatment.

As the effective size of the media decreases, the time for drainage and re -aeration of the media increases.

Reductions in the CBOD5 and suspended solids (TSS) influent concentrations will be attained within a few weeks of commissioning and should be consistently achieved over the lifetime of the styrene media. CBOD5 and suspended solids (TSS) treatment performance in the styrene media is not subject to significant variation with ambient air temperature fluctuations. 2.3 Operating Cost! Power costs for pumping at 3 to 4 kWh/day are in the range of $9 to $12/month. The E-Z Treat Re -circulating Synthetic Filter system incorporates technology resulting from years of independent research in re -circulation sand bio-filtration. Our system applies each area of this technology in a pre- packaged system. This ensures consistent field performance in reducing BOD, TSS and Total Nitrogen.

Model 1200 can be continuously loaded at 1400 GPD and 41b BOD. EPA research and testing has proven that system designs, such as the E-Z Treat Re -circulating Synthetic Filter system, will produce a high quality effluent at loading rates in excess of 25 gal/ftz/day. 02017 E-Z Treat 2.5 System Overview Prior to entering the re -circulating pump tank the effluent will be treated in an anaerobic chamber fitted with an effluent filter; this filter should remove any solids greater than 1/16". The second chamber will be a re -circulation chamber fitted with a float ball by-pass valve and re -circulation pump. The float ball by-pass valve connects, inside the re -circulation tank, to the 4" return line from N 0 Call: 703.753.4770 or visit: eztreat.net the pod. The float by-pass valve maintains a constant liquid volume in the re -circulation tank. The float by-pass valve allows the effluent to be constantly re -circulated through the synthetic filter discharging only the daily forward flow volume after it has passed through the pod. In designs using an external splitter box the float by-pass valve would be eliminated from the re -circulation chamber.

The nozzles are plastic construction with a free passage of 0.0625" in diameter; this large free passage helps prevent nozzle clogging while maintaining a consistent misting spray. The manifold is assembled with a pressure gauge and valves allowing for flow rate adjustments. 2.7 Filter Media Mattress Material The E-Z Treat Re -circulating Synthetic Filter system employs a manufactured synthetic media which is encapsulated in a mattress like container. The mattress is fabricated from a non -biodegradable; chemically resistant, loose weave polypropylene material with a weave pattern at 90 degree intersections creating 0.078 square openings allowing effluent and air to flow freely while containing the media material. This media is very uniform and provides ample surface area for biological growth. The media also has enough voids to accommodate good air and liquid flow. These void spaces also allow the passage of very small solids that would clog many filters. The media is very lightweight making it resistant to compaction which can lead to poor air and liquid flows, a problem that plagues many media filters. The media consists of lightweight, non - biodegradable plastic spheres.

The training will include instruction on proper site prep, locating pod, equipment handling, excavation, pod placement, piping, wiring and start up of the E-Z Treat system. Annual classroom training will be a requirement for installers to maintain their certification. As a condition of E-Z Treat certification, contractors must have proper state and local licenses and appropriate insurance policies. E-Z Treat distributors will only sell or authorize installations by E-Z Treat certified installers. The E-Z Treatment pod will ship pre -assembled, requiring only field piping of the pod supply line and discharge line, installing the re -circulation pump, 4" float by-pass valve and the re -circulation control. When installing the E-Z Treat system the order of components installation is not critical and each segment can be installed independently. 3.1 Pre -construction Meeting A pre -construction meeting is recommended before any construction commences. This meeting is an opportunity for the owner, builder, engineer/designer, local regulatory agencies, service provider and installer to clarify property lines, building location, system location, power sources, drainage areas, final site grading and answer general questions. Call: 703.753.4770 or visit: eztreat.net 3.2 Off Loading Treatment System The E-Z Treat Re -circulation Synthetic Filter pod is injection molded polyethylene weighing about 300 pounds. Because of the relative light weight and toughness of the material, special handling is not required. Two people can easily unload the pod. If machinery is used to off load the pod or transport it to the excavated hole; nylon straps, chains or cables used to lift the pod should be in good condition and rated for at least 1000 pounds. The re -circulation pump and control will be shipped in factory sealed cardboard box, these items are not fragile but should be handled with reasonable care not dropped or thrown. 02027 E-Z Treat 3.3 Excavating and Installing the Pod The first consideration when installing the E-Z Treat pod is to assure the pod is not located in a drainage area and the pod is located above the seasonal high water table, this will protect the pod from floating and prevent surface water infiltration. a Excavate a hole approximately 6'W x 9'L x 4'H. 4 Place 3/4" to 1" stone or equal to a height of 4" in the bottom of the excavation forming a level base for the pod to set, this will prevent settling of the pod and allow for leveling of the pod. M Backfill the pod with clean fill soil, free of rocks and foreign material. Do not compact the fill, allow the soil to settle naturally. 0 Once the pod is placed in the excavation roadjust the pod to slope 1" toward the 4" PVC outlet this assure proper drainage. 3 CL 3.4 Piping the E-Z Treat Pod Supply e* and Return 1W Once the pod is placed and leveled, raj, connect 4" PVC pipe between the outlet ° of the pod and the by-pass valve located in the re -circulation tank. IN Attach 1" PVC supply line between the 1" �. inlet on the pod and the re -circulation pump. I= 3.5 Installina the By -Pass Valve The by-pass valve is located in the re -circu- lation tank and one side is connected to the 4" PVC drain line coming from the pod and the other side is connected to the 4" PVC effluent discharge line or into the effluent pump tank.

Verify the lid and riser assemblies are watertight. Check for any damaged, water weeping marks, holes or cracks. The sys- tem must remain watertight to perform properly. 2. Inspect the outlet effluent filter installation to insure it is installed in accordance with the effluent filter manufacturer's specifi- cations. 3. Inspect the liquid level in the recirculation tank, the liquid should be sufficient to activate the Timer Enable Float. 4. Inspect the location of the float controls. They should be securely attached to the float bracket, free to float without obstructions and the location of the floats should correspond with the float diagram on page 10. Power Supply 1. Verify the main power supply to the re- circulation panel has properly sized breakers, the proper voltage and is installed in protection water tight conduit. 2. Check the voltage and motor amp draw. If the readings are beyond the limits speci- fied on the pump have an electrician check the main service line feeding the system control panel. By -Pass Valve 1. Verify the main power supply to the re- circulation panel has properly sized breakers, the proper voltage and is installed in protection water tight conduit. 2. Check the voltage and motor amp draw. If the readings are beyond the limits specified on the pump have an electrician check the main service line feeding the system control panel. Call: 703.753.4770 or visit: eztreat.net Flush the Spray Manifold 1. At initial system start-up, remove the end caps from the spray manifold. Operate the re -circulation pump by turning the pump control to the "HAND -ON" position. Let the pump run for one minute then turn the pump control to the "OFF" position repeat this procedure three times to flush any construction debris such as dirt or pipe shavings from the spray manifold. Replace the end caps hand tight —do not use wrenches or pliers. Re -set the pump con- trol selector switch to the "AUTO" position. 2. Using the ball valve located in the manifold supply line adjust the manifold pressure to 20 to 25 PSI. 3.Observe the system as it re -circulates. Visually verify all liquids flows freely through the system. Setting the Re -circulation Pump Control 1. Check the functions of the E-Z Treat Re -circulating Synthetic Filter control panel. Control: Main Control "ON/OFF" switch Function: Turns power ON or OFF Control: System Setting Switch "MANUAL ON" and "AUTO ON" Function: "MANUAL ON" overrides all float switches and time clock switches.

(Refer to table later in this section for the panel that fits your application.) Controllers have the following built-in log functions: - Elapsed time meter (ETM) Pump events Peak events High level events Power fail events Note: ETM and pump events are recorded whenever contactor is engaged. Float Functions Floats Functions igh Level Alarm Float Float raised — Alarm enable. ctivates the audible and visual alarm when lifted. Audible alarm may be ilenced by pressing the illuminated PUSH TO SILENCE button. The alarm ight will remain on until the float is lowered. eak Timer On/Off Float Float raised — Peak Timer enable. The Peak timer will cycle the pump(s) more frequently. The Peak Timer unction will remain active until the Primary Timer enable float lowers. When he Peak Timer function has been completed and the Primary Timer enable loat is reactivated, normal timer operation will resume of Ors/Off Float Float raised — Timer enable. The Timer will control pump cycles, beginning with the off cycle. Note: On duplex panels the pumps will alternate with each timer cycle. Redundant Off & Low Level Float raised — Pump enable. larm Float Float lowered — Pump disable. Flashing visual & audible alarm enable. his is a secondary off float that will prevent the operation of the pump if the ater level in the tank gets too low. Pumping will be disabled in both the utomatic and manual modes. This float also activates the visual and audible larms. Audible alarm may be silenced by pressing the illuminated PUSH TO SILENCE button. The flashing alarm light will remain on until the float is raised. When raised, this float will enable operation of the pump. December 2008 Choose a controller: Step 1: Number of zones in dispersal geld. Single zone: - Go to EZ1 table below. Two zones: -Zones activated hydraulically with indexing valves — go to EZ1 table. -Zones activated electrically with solenoid valves — go to EZ2 table. Three to four zones: - Zones activated hydraulically with indexing valves - go to EZ1 table. - Zones activated electrically with solenoid valves - go to EZ4 table. Five or more zones: - Zones activated hydraulically with indexing valves - go to EZ1 table. - Zones activated electrically with solenoid valves — call E-Z Set. (Zones activated with index & solenoid valve combinations can be accommodated.) All panels are dual voltage (1151230) for pump operation and 115v control circuit 115vac (max 314hp; 1 phase pump) or 230vac (max 2hp; 1phase pump). Pumps must have internal capacitors. (Any pumps requiring external capacitor kits will require a "special order' controller with pump manufacturer provided capacitor kits incorporated into panel enclosure.) Step 2: Number of pumps. Choose one pump (simplex) or two pumps (duplex). Step 3: Flushing operation. Choose manual or automatic (electronic) field and filter flushing.

During high flow conditions the pump dosing cycles will be controlled by the Peak Timer (float 3 - activated). The Peak Timer off is typically set to trigger more frequent flow than the Primary Timer off setting. If duplex pump option is chosen, the pumps are alternated every pump cycle and never operate simultaneously. There is a selection switch for pump 1, pump 2 or alternation. This allows one pump to be taken out of service for maintenance without affecting the operation of the system. Pump dosing cycles are controlled by the timers when the H-O-A switch is in the auto position. December 2008 Under normal conditions the Primary Timer (float 2) will control the pump(s). During high flow conditions, the Peak Timer (float 3) will control the pump(s). The Peak Timer will cycle the pump more frequently than the Primary Timer (field adjustable). The pump will dose for the same amount of time as it does when operated by the Primary Timer but the time in between doses, or the Peak timer "off time", will be 75 % of that of the Primary Timer"off time". Factory settings (field adjustable) are 1 hr 55 minutes off and 5 minutes on for Primary Timer and Peak Timer is set to 1 hr 25 minutes off (1 hr 55 mins x 75%) and 5 minutes on. Consequently peak doses are more frequent than primary doses. Hydraulically activated zone valve(s) will index each time the PLC calls for a dose. Each time the pump is called for another zone is dosed. The controller does not dose all zones sequentially as "one" dose and ignores the fact that there are multiple zones for the purpose of dosing. For example if the Primary Timer is programmed to be off for 1 hour on for 5minutes and there are four zones, each zone will get 6 doses - five minutes in length --in a 24-hour period. The controller will dose a single zone every hour and will not dose all zones every hour. AUTOMATIC Controllers The Primary Timer (float 2 activated) controls the pump dose cycle during normal operating conditions. During high flow conditions the pump dosing cycles will be controlled by the Peak Timer (float 3 activated). If duplex pump option is chosen, the pumps are alternated every pump cycle and never operate simultaneously. There is a selection switch for pump 1, pump 2 or alternation. This allows one pump to be taken out of service for maintenance without affecting the operation of the system. The Vortex Filter flush valve will open for 15 seconds (field adjustable) at the end of the pump cycle to allow the filter to self -flush. Pump dosing cycles are controlled by the timers when the H-O A switch is in the auto position. Under normal conditions the Primary Timer (float 2) will control the pump. During high flow conditions, the Peak Timer (float 3) will control the pump. The Peak Timer will cycle the pump more frequently than the Primary Timer. The pump will dose for the same amount of time as it does when operated by the Primary Timer but the time in between doses, or the Peak Timer "off time', will be 75% that of the Primary Timer "off time'. Factory settings (field adjustable) are 1 hr 55 minutes off and 5 minutes on for Primary Timer and Peak Timer is set to 1 hr 25 minutes off (1 hr 55 minutes x 75%) and 5 minutes on. Zone valve(s) will open when the PLC calls for a dose or flush. These can be electrically operated solenoid valves (requires EZ2 orEZ4) or hydraulically activated index valves (used with EZ1). Each time the pump is called for another zone is dosed. The controller does not dose all zones sequentially as 'one" dose but rather ignores the fact that there are multiple zones for the purpose of dosing. The total doses of all zones in a 24-hour period must be considered when setting the "off" timer(s). After the pump is deactivated the electrically activated solenoid flush valve will remain open for five minutes (field adjustable) to allow for drainage of the supply line in freezing climates. If hydraulically activated index valve is used, be sure to drain the supply line or bury below frost and protect in freezing climates. If hydraulically activated index valves are used in combination with a solenoid field flush valve, a field setting for number of zones and number of zone valves is available. Field flush valve will open at the end of the dosing cycle. The pump will continue to run for 5 seconds to accommodate the opening of this valve. After the pump is deactivated the field flush valve will remain open for five minutes (field adjustable) to allow for drainage of the return line in freezing conditions. It is best to clock the length of time it takes the return flush line to drain and use this to set your drain time. The activated zone valve remains open at the end of the dose for same "#" minutes as return flush and filter flush valves to accommodate drainage of supply line. December 2008 To periodically flush the dripfield, after 10 dosing cycles (field adjustable) the pump will operate for 5 minutes (field adjustable) with the field flush valve open. The field flush cycle will repeat until all zones have been flushed. This operation will also occur after a power outage. This is achieved by correctly inputting number of zone valves (if applicable) and number of zones during setting of the controller values. It is recommended that the flush cycle is set for approximately the same amount of time as the dose cycle to insure an adequate flush.

Spin -Clean Filters Description The filters are placed between the pump and dripfield to screen out any debris. The Spin -Clean type filter is most commonly used with E-Z Set Drip systems. (Other filters are available). Body — Two-piece threaded housing with O-ring seal. Molded from high heat ABS and chemical resistant glass reinforced plastic. Screen - Sintered stainless steel. Sintering is a process in which three pieces of stainless steel mesh are transformed into one; a perforated plate, 30m then 150 mesh. Screen collars molded from vinyl for long life and durability. Spin Plate - Directional spin plate is molded of PVC or fiberglass. Vortex Spin Action - Incoming water is forced through a directional nozzle plate onto the inside of the stainless steel screen. A centrifugal motion starts inside the screen chamber, throwing particles outward against the screen. Gravity, moves the debris down the screen wall to the %" flush outlet at the base of the filter.

They are designed using the grid concept, with supply and flush manifolds at the end of each dripline, creating a closed loop system. The grid design provides a complete and even wetted area. Drip is a highly efficient method to dispose of effluent. Small, precise amounts of water are uniformly applied to the soil from multiple points. The main advantages of the E-Z Set Drip system are: • Can be used under difficult circumstances, including high water tables, tight soils, rocky terrain, steep slopes, around existing buildings, trees, or other vegetation. The system does not require gravel. It is easy to install directly into indigenous soil and fill material. Disposal of water is maximized by means of evapotranspiration. Uptake of nutrients by plants is increased. Fifteen year warranty for root intrusion, workmanship, and materials. - Non -intrusive. - Easily automated. NOTES: • These guidelines are for secondary treated effluent. • Please follow your State and local regulations for onsite wastewater dispersal. This document is intended to be a guide, and should be used only as a supplement to your local regulations. • With the exception of controllers, product specifications and technical information throughout provided by Geoflow, Inc. December 2008 Page 2 DIAGRAM 1: TYPICAL DRIPFIELD LAYOUT from no December 2008 Page 3 SYSTEM COMPONENTS: See Diagram 1 on page 3. A typical drip system installation will consist of the elements listed below: (See appendices for product specifications.) 1. E-Z SET DRIPLINE The dripline disperses the effluent into the field area. The dripline is connected to the supply and return manifolds with Lockslip fittings. Typical spacing between each dripline and between drip emitters is 24" on center. The pipe has no joints that may pull apart during installation and is ideal for tractor mounted burying machines. It is sold in 500-ft rolls. Rolls of alternative length, diameter, and emitter spacing may be special ordered. Dripline features: a) NANO-ROOTGUARD®' The risk of root intrusion with an emitter slowly releasing effluent directly into the soil is well known to anyone who has observed a leaking sewer pipe. All E-Z Set drip emitters are guaranteed to be protected against root intrusion with nano-RooTGUARD. This patented process fuses the root -growth inhibitor, TREFLAN02 into each drip emitter during manufacturing. Treflan is registered with the United States EPA for this application. The nano-RooTGUARD technology slowly releases Treflan in minute quantities to prevent root cells from dividing and growing into the barrier zone. It is chemically degradable, non -systemic, and virtually insoluble in water (0.3 ppm). Nano- RooTGUARD carries a 15 year warranty against root intrusion. b) Bactericide protection E-Z Set Drip has an inner lining impregnated with a bactericide, Ultra FreshTM3 DM-50, to inhibit bacterial growth on the wails of the tubing and in the emitter. This minimizes the velocity required to flush E-Z SET Dripline. The velocity only needs to remove fine particles from the dripline; it is not necessary to scour growth off the inside wall of the tubing. When a minimum flushing velocity is requested, 0.5 feet per second is used with E-Z Set Dripline to get the settled particles at the bottom of the pipe back into suspension. (This equates to 0.375 gpm per drip lateral.) Check your local regulations for information on flushing velocity requirements. c) Turbulent Flow Path E-Z SET Drip emitters are pre -inserted in the tubing 6", 9", 12", 18", or 24" apart, with 24" being utilized most often. Angles in the emitter flow path are designed to cause turbulence in order to equalize flow between emitters and keep the emitters clean. ' Nano-ROOTGUARD is a registered trademark of A.I.Innovations 2 Treflan is a registered trademark of Dow Agro Sciences Ultra -Fresh is a registered Trademark of Thomson Research Associates. December 2008 Page 4 d) E-Z SET Classic and E-Z SET PC Dripline Both Classic and PC have turbulent flow path emitters with nano- ROOTGUARD and bactericide protection. The PC has the added element Of a silicone rubber diaphragm that moves up and down over the emitter outlet to equalize flow regardless of pressure between 7 and 60 psi. To ensure a long life, the recommended operating range is 10 to 45 psi. For Classic, the flow rate delivered by the emitter is a function of the pressure at the emitter. The Classic dripline has the advantage of no moving parts or rubber that may degrade over time. Also, the flow during a dosing cycle and flushing cycle are very similar with the Classic because when the flush valve is opened, the pressure is reduced, causing the flow from the emitters to decline. PC driplines require higher flow for flushing than dosing, as the emitter flow rate does not go down during the flushing cycle. 2. CONTROLLERS Controllers are used for time dosing and time flushing of the filter and dripfield. E-Z Set Drip controllers typically include a programmable logic control interface for field modifications. They can be used on systems ranging in size from one to as many zones as is needed. All controllers include a surge arrestor, elapsed time meter and counter for each pump. Custom panels are available as needed. 3. Pumps Dripfields depend on pumps to dose effluent under pressure to the field. These must be sized according to flow and pressure requirements. E-Z Set provides drip pumps for all E-Z Set drip systems. 4. FILTERS E-Z Set Drip systems use a variety of filters. Typically, a Spin -Clean screen filter is used; however; Vac- Kleen and disc filters can also be used, depending on application. 5. SUPPLY MANIFOLD This carries the water from the dosing tank to the dispersal area. Rigid PVC is usually used, and should be designed to gravity drain back to the pump tank in freezing conditions unless manifolds are buried below frost and protected from freezing. The velocity in the manifold should be between 2 feet per second and 5 feet per second (fps). Refer to PVC pipe sizing chart in the appendix to determine the best diameter for your application. $. RETURN MANIFOLD In order to help clean the system periodically, the ends of the driplines are connected together into a common return line, most often made of rigid PVC. This line will help equalize pressures in the system. Flushing should be done frequently during the installation period. The return manifold should be installed to gravity drain back to the pump or pretreatment tank in freezing climates, unless it is buried below frost and protected from freezing. 7. PRESSURE REGULATOR Pressure regulators fix the inlet pressure at a given rate. Under normal operating conditions, pressure in most systems should be 10 psi to 45 psi. December 2008 Page 5 8. AIR VACUUM BREAKER Air vacuum breakers are installed at the high points to keep soil from being sucked into the emitters due to back siphoning or backpressure. This is an absolute necessity with underground drip systems. They are also used for proper draining of the supply and return manifolds in freezing conditions, when manifolds are designed to gravity drain back. Air vents are located in field boxes just below grade. One is used on the high end of the supply manifold and one on the high point of the return manifold. Additional air vents may be required in undulating terrain. Freezing conditions require the air vacuum breaker be protected with insulation. 9. FILTER FLUSH VALVES The filter flush valve can be manual or electronic, and is used to flush debris from the filter (When electronic, these valves are normally closed solenoid valves). If manual, it should be left cracked open slightly to flush continuously (certain States and/or filters may require automated electronic flushing). 10. FIELD FLUSH VALVES The field flush valve can be manual or electronic, and is used to flush fine particles out of the drip system (when electronic, these valves are normally closed solenoid valves). if manual, it should be opened for full flushing at least every six months and left cracked open slightly to flush continuously and/or provide for drainage of the flush line in freezing conditions (certain states may require automated electronic flushing). 11. ZONE VALVES Used to divide single dispersal fields into multiple zones, these can be hydraulically activated index valves or solenoid valves (when solenoid valves are used, they are normally closed valves). 12. QUICK FILL VALVES The quick fill valve is used to rapidly fill large zones with long lengths of run, and to equalize distribution on steep slopes. These valves are normally open solenoid valves, and are plumbed at some point between the supply and return line, depending on design (all systems will not necessarily have a quick fill valve). 13. HEADWORKS The Headworks is a pre -assembled unit including the filter, flush valves, and pressure gauge in a field box. It is installed between the pump and the field, typically below grade. The Headworks should be insulated in freezing climates. DESIGN PARAMETERS 1. SELECT AREA Select the area with careful consideration to the soil, the terrain and your State and County regulations. Be sure the field is in a good landscape position - not in a flood plain or bottom of a slope where excessive water may collect after rain. Surface water and gutters should be directed away from the proposed field area. December 2008 Page 6 2. WATER QUALITY Determine the quality of the water entering the system (it should be at least secondary effluent quality). Be aware of water conditions intrinsic to the area. If iron, manganese, or other conditions that may affect treatment or dispersal are prevalent, be sure to eliminate upstream of the wastewater treatment plant or drip system with ozone, ultraviolet or other methods. 3. SOIL APPLICATION DESIGN Refer to your State and local codes for soil absorption rates. 4. DEPTH AND SPACING Driplines are usually spaced 2 feet apart with 2 feet between emitters so that each emitter supplies a 4 sq. ft area. These lines are typically placed at depths of 6-10 inches below the surface (some states allow surface application). Closer and/or further spacing can be used based on site specific conditions. Using closer spacing of lines will not reduce the minimum size of the field area and using increased spacing of lines will not reduce the minimum number of feet of dripline required. Refer to your State and local codes for depth of bury and spacing requirements. 5. SOIL LAYERS AND TYPES The topsoil or surface soil is generally the most biologically active and permeable soil for accepting water. The topsoil also dries the fastest after a rainfall event, and will maintain the highest water absorption rate. The quality and homogeneity of the soil may present a problem. If the soil was not properly prepared and there are pieces of construction debris, rocks and non -uniform soils, it is very difficult to obtain uniform water spread. In many cases, particularly if the soil is compacted, soil properties can be greatly improved by ripping and disking (check your local regulations prior to disturbing any proposed drainfield area). 6. ADDING FILL TO THE DISPERSAL FIELD Some dispersal sites require that additional soil be brought in to increase separation distance from a restrictive layer. Placing drip lines in selected fill material above the natural soil provides an aerated zone for treatment. However, dispersal still occurs in the natural soil, and the field size must be based on the hydraulic capability of the natural soil to prevent hydraulic overload. Any time fill material is to be used, the area to receive the fill should have all organic material removed or it must be incorporated into the natural soil to prevent an organic layer from forming and restricting downward water movement. The fill material should be applied in shallow layers with the first 4 to 6 inches incorporated into the natural soil to prevent an abrupt textural interface. Continue this process until all fill has been incorporated. Check your local regulations regarding the use of fill material. 7. MULTIPLE ZONES Drip dispersal fields can be divided into multiple zones or subzones with solenoid valves or index valves for the following reasons: a. Steep slopes with a risk of low head drainage can be subdivided to distribute the water at system shut -down more uniformly in the field. b. Smaller zones reduce the required flow per minute which consequently reduces the size of the pump, valves, filters, supply and return lines. c. The dispersal field is located in multiple areas on the property. December 2008 Page 7 On multiple zones, a single Headworks unit can be used for filtration and flushing by placing zone valves downstream of the Headworks box. All zones would require a check valve on the individual flush lines upstream of each line joining a common flush line (to keep flush water from one zone entering any other zone during the flush cycle). 8. WATER APPLICATION FORMULA To determine the rate of application for various designs, use the following formula: Water application (inches per hour) = (231 x (emitter flow rate gph)) / ((Emitter spacing inches) x (dripline spacing inches)) Example: Dripline with 1.3 gph flow rate emitters spaced 24" apart and drrpline spaced 24" apart Water application = (231 x 1.3)/(24x24) = 0.52 inches of water per hour.

Nano-ROOTGUARLM is temperature sensitive. To assure a long life, store the drip line out of direct sunlight in a cool place. Check and collect all tags from dripline rolls. Verify the flow rate and model numbers match what is specified on the plan. Keep all tags in job file for future reference. a) All dripfield construction shall be done in accordance with Local rules and regulations. b) Fence/tape off entire dripfield prior to any construction. c) System is not to be installed when ground is wet or frozen. d) Divert all downspouts and surface waters away from dripfield and tanks. e) Excavation, filling and grading should have been finished before installation of the subsurface drip system. f) Be sure you have everything required for the installation before opening trenches. Pre -assemble as many sets of components as practical above ground and in a comfortable place. g) The soil should be moist but still should allow the proper operation of the installation equipment and not cause smearing in the trenches. The soil surface should be dry so that the installation equipment maintains traction. h) Install a watertight dosing tank according to E-Z Set Drip specifications. i) Determine the proper size for the supply and return manifolds. (See Worksheet line L) j) Install the PVC supply line from the dosing tank. (please refer to your State guidelines for depth of burial.) k) Paint a line or flag between the two remaining corners at the opposite end of field where loops and/or return trench will be located. 1) Install the dripline from the supply line trench to the painted/flagged line, as specified per design/local code. Upon reaching the painted line/flags, pull the plow out of the ground and cut the dripline 1' above the ground. Tape the end of the dripline to prevent debris from entering. Continue this process until the required footage of pipe is installed. Take care not to get dirt into the lines. m) Install the supply header with tees lined up at each dripline. Hook up the driplines to the supply header. (Do not glue the dripline.) n) Install the pre -assembled Headworks between the field and the pump tank on the supply line. *Insulate the box in freezing conditions. o) If using a pressure regulator, install it downstream of the Headworks at the dispersal field, on the supply line. Although the pressure regulator can be buried directly into the soil, it is preferable to install it inside a small valve box for easy access with unions on either side. *Insulate the box in freezing conditions. p) Install the floats in the dosing tank and wire to the control panel. The control panel should be programmed to pump no more than the design flow, do not set to match the treatment capacity. q) Install the pump. Fill the dosing tank with fresh water and turn on the pump. Check for flow out the ends of all of the driplines. Let the pump run for 5-10 minutes to flush out any dirt. Shut off the pump and tape the ends of the lines. r) Dig along the painted/flagged line for loops and/or return manifold. The return line must have slope back to the treatment tank or septic tank in freezing climates if it is not buried below frost and protected from freezing. If loops are formed using solid line, they must be elevated slightly above the dripline to allow for drainage in freezing climates. December 2008 Page 12 s) Install the return header and connect all of the driplines. t) Install air vacuum breakers at the highest points in the dispersal field. Use pipe dope or Teflon tape and hand tighten. u) Connect the return line back through the Headworks box. Open the field flush valve and turn on the pump to flush lines, then close the valve and check the field and all piping and connections for leaks. v) With pump still running, check the pressure at the air vacuum breaker(s). It should be between 10 to 45 PSI. (See the Worksheet line H for design pressure required on supply line.) Check the pressure in the Headworks. It should be five psi or higher. If using a manual valve for field flushing, crack it open until design pressure is reached and leave in that position. Turn off the pump. w) Check the filter for construction debris and clean. x) Set timers and counters as specified in design, and keep a record of these settings. In addition to these settings, keep a record of all of the logs in the panel at the time of start up. Record final pressure readings at startup as well. Date these records for future reference. Installing Lockslip fittings a) Hold the fitting in one hand and position the tubing with the other hand. b) Move the sleeve back, and push the tubing onto the exposed stem as far as possible. c) Push the sleeve out over the tubing and screw onto tubing, as though tightening a nut to a bolt. `Hand tighten; do not use tools. d) Test the connection to make sure the sleeve threads have gripped the tubing tightly. Valve Installation and Operation a) Wrap male adapters with Teflon tape and thread the adapters into the valve inlet and outlet just past hand tight. CAUTION: over tightening may cause damage to the valve. (Note: arrows indicate flow direction on valve.) b) Using watertight electrical fittings, connect the valve common and an individual output wire to the solenoid leads. c) Flush the laterals by opening the internal manual bleed lever on the downstream side of the solenoid. Be certain that flow control handle on top of valve is free spinning (on flow control models). d) Close the internal manual bleed after flushing the system December 2008 Page 13 SUBSURFACE DRIP INSTALLATION METHODS NOTE: Disturbing the soil may affect the pore structure of the soil and create hydraulic conductivity problems.

December 2008 Page 14 WINTERIZATION Buried drip systems are not prone to frost damage because vacuum release and drain valves are provided in their design. The dripline itself is made of polyethylene, and is not susceptible to freezing. It drains through the emitters, so it will not be full of water after pumps are turned off. Please follow these precautions: a) Manifolds (supply lines and return lines) should slope back to their respective tanks. These lines need to drain rapidly. If using electronic flush valves, be sure drain valves remain open long enough for entire field to drain. If using manual filter flush valves or manual field flush valves, they should be left cracked open slightly for drainage. Alternatively, the manifolds can be located below frost depth. Under extreme conditions, return and supply manifolds must be insulated. b) If using drain back method for frost protection, either remove check valve from pump line or provide alternate method for draining this line. c) Insulate all field boxes in freezing climates. This includes Headworks, zone valve(s), pressure regulator(s) and air vacuum relief valve boxes. d) In severe freezing conditions, use heat tape or a small heater in the Headworks box. d) The top of air vacuum relief valves must be no higher than soil surface and insulated in freezing climates. e) If using a hydraulic indexing valve for zoning a system, be sure it is frost protected in freezing climates. For proper operation, always locate indexing valve at highest point in system to allow for drainage between cycles. f) The driplines will self -drain through the emitters into the soil. If the cover crop over the dripfieid is not yet adequately established, add hay or straw over the field for insulation in freezing climates. g) if necessary, mark all valve boxes with a metal pin so you can find it in the winter when covered in snow.

Read all instructions before proceeding with the installation. Improper installation may void warranties. 2. Inspect your order for completeness and inspect each component for shipment damage. If something is missing or damaged, you will need to contact your supplier to obtain replacements. 3. Check to be sure the instructions and items supplied comply with state and local regulations. 4. A qualified electrician must be employed to install and service the panel and ancillary wiring. The equipment must be installed in compliance with the National Electric Code, as well as state and local codes. Placement of the Control Panel 5. Install the electrical control or alarm panel within view of the tank. The panel should be attached to a post or an exterior wall. Panels that contain motor contactors make a thumping sound, each time a pump is started or stopped. Therefore, these panels should not be mounted to an exterior wall unless it is in a location away from living areas, such as on a garage wall. If possible, position the panel in the shade to protect it from weather. Extreme temperatures can cause inconsistent performance of the electrical components. Locate the panel at a convenient height (usually about five feet above the ground) and where it will be accessible for maintenance. Install Floats and Pumps 6. Install the electrical splice box(es) for the floats and pump(s) before installing the actual floats and pumping equipment. The splice box(es) are installed in the grommet(s) provided near the top of the riser. 7. Install the floats. Thread the float and pump cords through the cord grips into the PVC splice box, leaving adequate lengths of electrical cord coiled inside the riser to allow easy removal of the pump and float assembly. Do not remove the colored markers or the paper tags from the float cords, and do not try to thread the markers and tag through the cord grip. These should be left on the float cord, outside the splice box. Tighten the cord grips, using hand pressure or a wrench if necessary, until the cord will no Ionger move in the cord grip. If the cord grips are not tight enough, the seal will not be watertight, but overtightening may damage the cord or the cord grip, so use only as much force as necessary. Adequate lengths of cord should be left within the splice box to allow for easy removal for future disconnecting and re -splicing. 8. Run the wires from the control panel to the splice box. The wires can be brought through a conduit, or can be buried using suitable direct -burial wire. Conduit that enters the splice box must be sealed, even if the wires are direct -buried, to prevent the infiltration of water into the splice box. Use an electrically approved sealant to plug the wires coming in through the conduit hub. The number of wires required depends on the control panel and the number of floats and pumps used. This can be determined by consulting the panel wiring diagram. EIN-CP-GE0 4 Rev 1000%4 M Page 1 of 2 Wire should be sized at 14 AWG for the tloats. Refer to Figure 1 to determine the proper size for the pump wires. When calculating wire size, the length and size of the branch circuit wires from the service entrance panel to the pump control panel must also be taken into account. Wire that's too small can cause an excessive voltage drop and poor pump performance. Wires should be color coded or otherwise marked to aid in wiring the control panel. 9. All splices made in the splice box should use waterproof wire nuts or butt connectors and heat shrink tubing. The splices must be waterproof. Splices that are not waterproof may cause a malfunction of the pump controls if water should Ieak into the splice box. Connect Control Panel 10. Connect the wires coming from floats to the terminals in the control panel. Refer to the panel wiring diagram for the correct terminal connections. 11. Connect the wires coming from the pump(s) to the pump terminals. Refer to the panel wiring diagram for the correct terminal connections. 12. Connect the incoming power to the panel. Power to the panel must be appropriate to the control panel and pump motor (i.e. 120VAC, single phase for a 120 VAC motor, 240 VAC single phase for a 240 VAC motor, etc.) Insure that the panel is properly grounded and that the fuse or breaker and wire size, from the main power panel and to the pump, are sized correctly. Separate circuits for the pump controls and each of the pump motors is recommended. Note: Voltage for the controls in the panel is always 120VAC, although the pump voltage may be 120VAC or 240 VAC. 13. Use 60' minimum CU conductors only. Torque the terminal blocks to 15 LB -IN and the ground lugs to 45 LB -IN. Torque the circuit breakers to 20 LB -IN for 14-10 AWG wire, 25 LB -IN for 8 AWG wire, and 27 LB -IN for 6-4 AWG wire. 14. When power is applied to the control panel, the wires to the pump may be energized. Do not service the pump or any electrical wiring in the pump vault without disconnecting the power at the circuit breaker and the fuse. The pump vault area is a hazardous area, and may contain explosive gases. Take appropriate precautions before working in the pump vault. 15. If you have any questions please contact GEOFLOW.

Screen Layout Panel Operation: Your control panel can perform the float functions listed below. Depending on the number of floats for your application, some functions may be omitted or combined. High Level Alarm: This float activates the alarm light and audible alarm when lifted. The audible alarm may be silenced by pressing the illuminated PUSH TO SILENCE button on the front of the control panel. The alarm light will remain on until the float is lowered. Secondary Timer On & Off. This float activates the secondary timer function when lifted. The timer will cycle the pump at a faster rate. The secondary timer function will remain active until the Timer On & Off float lowers. When the secondary timer function has been completed, normal timer operation will resume. Timer On & Off- This float activates the timer. The timer will control the pump cycle, beginning with the off cycle. Redundant Off & Low Level Alarm: This float turns off the pump when lowered. This float is a secondary off float, which will operate if the Timer On & Off float fails. Pumping will be disabled in both the automatic and manual modes. This float also activates the alarm light and audible alarm. The audible alarm may be silenced by pressing the illuminated PUSH TO SILENCE button on the front of the control panel. The alarm light will remain on until the float is lifted. Pump & Valve Operation: The pump dosing cycles will be controlled by the timer. During high flow conditions, the pump dosing cycles will be controlled by the secondary timer. As the pump starts, one of the zone valves will open. The vortex valve will open for 15 seconds (field adjustable) at the end of the pump dosing cycle to allow for vortex flushing. When the vortex flush is complete the pump will remain activated for 5 seconds (field adjustable) and the system flush valve will be activated. After the pump is deactivated the system flush valve will remain activated for 5 minutes (field adjustable) to allow for drainage of the return line. After 10 dosing cycles (field adjustable), the system flush valve will be activated and each zone will be flushed for 5 minutes (field adjustable). This operation will also occur after a power outage.

This allows the timer to advance as scheduled, but keeps the valves from opening the water flow. Once the Mini-Clik has dried sufficiently, the switch closes again to allow normal operation. The Mini-Clik has 25' (8 m) of cable attached to it. The cable terminates with blue leads. These leads will be wired to the SEN terminals or SEN and SEN COM terminals of the controller. The order in which they are wired does not matter (Figure 1). r24WCi REMr SEN I C ®®® ECI X-CORE' PRO-HC 151 & I -CORE Figure 7 ® Ac2 ACI ac sEN sea PRO-C` sw SEN Jim ® fCC2 +. ++24 ACC ® 24V ® Zav EMINFE seem ® SEWOR2 COW" He =, SMG W. HCC •�M1h SEM1'I- ACC2 For the conduit model, Mini-Clik-C: This rain sensor unit is the same as the standard model, except there is no aluminum mounting bracket and a 1/2" threaded cap that allows for electrical conduit to totally enclose the wires has been added. Unless local code states otherwise, plumbing -grade PVC pipe can be used, as well as electrical -grade conduit. Mounting Standard Model Usingthe screws provided, mount the Mini-Clik on any surface where it will be exposed to unobstructed rainfall, but not in the path of sprinkler spray. The switch -housing portion must be upright (Figure 2), but the swivel bracket can be moved for mounting on any angled surface. Loosen the locknut and screw before swiveling the bracket, and then re -tighten. For model Mini-Clik-C: The conduit acts as the mounting support for the unit. Therefore, place and mount the conduit to allow for the desired Figure 2 sensor location as described in the main instructions for the standard model. Be sure to support the conduit sufficiently along its various lengths N1111tel 9 0 Helpful Hints for Mounting A. When looking for a suitable location (such as on the side of a building or post), the closer the Mini-Clik is to the controller, the shorterthe wire run will be. This will minimize the chance for wire breaks. B. The ideal location for mounting is not always the most practical location. in the case where a compromise must exist (such as a low location on a side wall rather than a preferred higher location), note that the Mini-Clik will still work because it will always receive some rainfall — itjust will not be as accurate in its gauging as it could be. C. As described in the "Operation" section of this manual, "reset rate" refers to the amount of time it takes the Mini-Clik to dry out sufficiently for the sprinkler system to be allowed to come back on. The mounting location will affect this rate and must be taken into consideration should extreme conditions exist. For example, mounting the Mini-Clik on a very sunny, southern end of building may cause the Mini-Clik to dry out sooner than desired. Similarly, mounting on the northern end of building with constant shade may keep the Mini-Clik from drying soon enough. Once the Mini-Clik is mounted, run the wire to the controller. Fasten it every few feet with wire clips or staples for best results. If an extension to the wire provided is needed, use the following table to determine the minimum wire gauge needed: If the extension needed is: 0-100' (15-30 m) >100' (>30 m) use: 18 AWG (1 mm) 16 AWG (1.3 mm) Wiring to Your Irrigation System IMPORTANT: The standard model Mini-Clik is sold and designed for hooking up to 24-volt irrigation controllers only. For wiring to 110- or 220-volt irrigation controllers, consult your distributor or the factory. All wiring must conform to National Electrical Code or applicable local codes. For model Mini-Clik-C: WARNING! This unit is designed to be installed in conjunction with 24 VAC circuits only. Do not use with 110 or 220 VAC circuits. Other Controllers The two most common situations are shown below. For non-standard wiring situations, consult your distributor or request our non-standard wiring information packet. 24-Volt Solenoid Valves Only (No Booster Pump) — Figure 3 With the two wires from the Mini-Clik at the controller, locate the "common ground" wire of the solenoid valves. If it is connected to the common terminal on the controller, disconnect it. Attach one wire of the Mini-Clik to the "common" terminal (usually marked "C") on the controller. Attach the other wire of the Mini-Clik to the common wire leading to the valves. Note: The common wire to the valves does not have to be interrupted at the controller. The Mini-Clik can be wired anywhere along the common wire line (on example would be at the valve box location). Operation Check to Verify Correct Wiring Turn on one zone of the irrigation system that is visible while you are in reach of the Min i-Clik. Manually depress the spindle at the top of the Mini-Clik until you hear the switch "click" off. The sprinkler zone should stop instantaneously. If it does not, check wiring for correct- ness. It is not necessary to "wet" test the Mini-Clik, although it will test the operation accurately, if desired. Adjustments and Operation The Mini-Clik can keep the irrigation system from starting or continuing after rainfall quantities of 'A". 14", 16", and 'A". To adjust it to the desired shut-off quantity, rotate the cap on the switch housing so that the pins are located in the proper slots (Figure 4). Do not forcibly twist the cap, as this could break the pins. The time that it takes the Mini-Clik to reset for normal sprinkler operation after +- Vent Ring Vent the rain has stopped is determined by weather conditions (e.g., wind, FWre4 sunlight, humidity), These conditions will determine how fast the hygro- scopic discs dry out. Since the turf is also experiencing the same condi- tions, their respective drying rates will roughly parallel each other. This means when the turf needs more water, the Mini-Clik is already reset to allow the sprinkler system to go at the next scheduled cycle. There is an adjustment capability on the Min i-Clik that will slow down the reset rate. By turning the "vent ring" (Figure 4) to completely or partially cover the ventilation holes, the hygroscopic discs will dry more slowly. This adjustment can compensate for an "overly sunny" installation location, or peculiar soil conditions. Experience will best determine the ideal vent setting. All Mini-Clik models are listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (LIL). Samples ofthese devices have been evaluaied by L1L and meet the applicable t1L standards for safety, Mini-Cllk controller C i 2 3 4 (2)SQ) solenoid valves Common Wire to All Valves Figure 3 Bypassing the Sensor On Hunter controllers, move the rain sensor switch to 'Bypass." Note: Using the "manual" switch on non -Hunter controllers typically will not bypass the sensor. Maintenance There is no required maintenance for the unit. The Mini-Clik does not have to be removed or covered for winterizing purposes. Troubleshooting Follow these simple checks first before assuming the unit is bad and replacing it. If the system will not come on at all: A. First, check to see that the Mini-Clik discs are dry and the switch "clicks" on and off freely by pressing the top of the spindle. B. Next, look for breaks in the wire leading to the Mini-Clik and check all wire connections. C. Finally, if the Mini-Clik is dry and the wire leading to it is good, check the Mini-Clik switch by nicking the insulation of the two "outer" wires near the unit to expose copper. Turn one sprinkler zone on, and apply a "jumper wire" across the two exposed wires. If the sprinkler now comes on, the switch is bad. Wrap all nicked wires with electrical tape. If the System Will Not Shut off Even After Heavy Rainfall A. Check wiring for correctness (see "Operation Check to Verify Correct Wiring"). B. Check the sensitivity setting (move the cap to a more sensitive setting). The Mini-Clik is an accurate rain gauge and can be verified by setting up a tube -type rain gauge in the same vicinity and making periodic readings. C. is the rainfall actually hitting the Mini-Clik? Check for obstructions to rainfall (e.g., overhangs, trees, or walls). ❑� ' C' Need help?

Box 129 Morrisville, North Carolina 27560 Phone: (919) 467-1239 Fax: (919) 319-6510 Operation and Maintenance Procedures shall be as contained in the following Approvals: Innovative Wastewater System No.: IWWS-2015-03-R2 Operation and Maintenance Plan System Background The wastewater treatment and disposal system is designed to treat the generated domestic wastewater from a resident dwelling. The system will consist of one (1) septic tank with effluent filter, one (1) Model 600 E-Z Treat recirculating media filter (treatment unit), one (1) E-Z Treat recirculation tank, one (1) field dosing / storage tank, an ultraviolet disinfection unit, initial and repair irrigation fields with sufficient drip lines, and all the necessary appurtenances. The septic tank will receive the wastewater by gravity flow as it leaves the home. Once the wastewater fills the septic tank, it will exit the septic tank by gravity through an effluent filter. The wastewater then enters the E-Z Treat recirculation tank where it is pumped through the E-Z Treat treatment unit. The E-Z Treat treatment unit removes additional BOD that were not removed in the septic tank and effluent filter. The wastewater then flows by gravity into the E-Z Treat recirculation tank or is diverted to the field dosing/storage tank by means of an effluent bypass valve. Wastewater flowing into the field dosing/storage tank is treated by an ultraviolet disinfection unit prior to entering the tank. Each of these treatment units are described in additional detail below. S tic E-Z Treat Recirculation and Field Dosing / Storage Tanks: The proposed wastewater treatment system will provide both anaerobic treatment for BOD, nutrient and solids removal in the septic tank. This tank will be provided as specified on the construction drawings, or approved equal by Engineer. The tank shall be previously approved by the On -Site Water Protection Section. This tank shall provide greater than 2 days of detention time providing for adequate anaerobic treatment and solids removal from the wastewater. The septic tank will contain a Polylok, Simtech, or approved equal effluent filter to prevent solids from reaching the E-Z Treat recirculation tank. The E-Z Treat recirculation tank will be provided as specified on the construction drawings, or approved equal by Engineer. Septic tank effluent will drain into the E-Z Treat recirculation tank. Wastewater will be pumped from the E-Z recirculation tank onto the E-Z Treat treatment unit, and the E-Z Treat treatment unit effluent will flow by gravity into the E-Z Treat recirculation tank or the field dosing / storage tank. The field dosing/storage tank shall be provided as specified on the construction drawings, or approved equal by Engineer. The effluent from the field dosing / storage tank will be pumped to the drip irrigation fields. The E-Z Treat recirculation and field storage/dosing tanks will be connected to audible and visible high water alarms. These alarms will alert the operator when too much wastewater has accumulated in the tanks so that he may turn on the pumps to empty the tank. If the property, otherwise specified on the construction drawings, is served by a well system, water will not be used during a power failure. A standby generator shall be provided if stated in the permit statements. Pumps: There are two pumps within the wastewater treatment system. One (1) E-Z Treat treatment unit recirculation pump will be a Sta-Rite 1 hp pump (Catalog Number STEP 30). One (1) drip field dosing pump will be provided as specified on the construction drawings, or equivalent as approved Peter Nolan Surface Drip Irrigation Redesign MacConnell & Associates, P.C. Project No.: A75801.00 by the engineer. Both pumps will be connected to control panels. Pump efficiency shall be monitored by recording the amperage supplied to the pump. A sudden decrease in efficiency will indicate that the pump must be replaced. Pump replacement can be accomplished by disconnecting pumps from the power supply and unscrewing them from the attached piping. E-Z Treat Treatment Unit: The Model 600 E-Z Treat treatment unit will be used to provide additional treatment to the septic tank effluent as well as removing suspended solids not removed by the septic tank. The treatment unit will be housed in the container provided by E-Z Treat. The E-Z Treat treatment unit will be dosed by a Sta-Rite pump (Catalog Number STEP 30,1 hp) with a distribution system placed above the styrene media which will discharge onto the media. The underdrain system will transport the E-Z Treat treatment unit effluent back into the recirculation or field dosing / storage tank. Ultraviolet Disinfection Unit: The ultraviolet disinfection unit will be used to treat the E-Z Treat treatment unit effluent before it reaches the field dosing / storage tank. The ultraviolet disinfection unit shall be E-Z Treat (Model E-Z UV 101) or approved equal by engineer. Rain Sensor: A Hunter Mini-Clik rain sensor shall be installed adjacent to the hydraulic unit in an area that will receive precipitation (i.e. that is not covered by trees). The sensor will only be used for the drip irrigation pump to cease operations during wet conditions. The field dosing / storage tank will store the treated wastewater for more than five days; however, it may be necessary to override the control system following large precipitation events if the tank is above capacity. During wet conditions, the sensor will send a signal to the pump controls to inactivate the pump. If it becomes necessary to release wastewater from the tank, the Mini-Clik may be turned off and the pump switched on manually. Drip Irrigation System: The drip irrigation fields will be dosed by the field dosing pump. The drip field zoning criteria and drip lines shall follow as specified on the construction drawings. All zones shall operate independently. Each emitter shall be capable of delivering 0.53 gph. Crop Maintenance and Management: The drip area should remain as original condition and be planted with a fescue, rye, or Bermuda grass as needed in compacted areas. The wastewater applied to the trees or grass (if needed) will provide ample moisture and nutrients to promote plant growth. All dead trees if applicable, newly grown vegetation and newly grown trees less than 1 inch shall be removed yearly. System Operation The wastewater treatment system is designed to dose the E-Z Treat treatment unit every 11 minutes to 17 minutes with 60 gallons of septic tank effluent. If less than 60 gallons of wastewater is available, the low level signal will inactivate the pump. The control panel will activate the field dosing pump and associated control valve to dose the drip field. Flow to the drip field is designed Peter Nolan Surface Drip Irrigation Redesign MacConnell & Associates, P.C. Project No.: A75801.00 for a maximum dose as shown on the construction drawings. The volume dosed is controlled by the "run time" set on the dose run/rest interval timer for each zone. The pump will de -energize if the low water level "pump off' float is activated. The flow meter installed in the hydraulic unit will track the volume of wastewater irrigated. If the high water level "alarm" float switch is activated, the system will energize the audible and flashing alarm fixtures. Once energized, the flashing and audible alarm units may only reset manually. If the alarm light begins flashing after being reset, it means that either there is a clog in the system or the pump has failed. This may be corrected by simply pressing the reset button. If this doesn't energize the pump, the wet well will have to be opened and the pump removed to check for deficiencies or an object that may be clogging the system. If there are no obvious flaws on the pump itself and no objects inside the pump tank, restore the pump and try resetting it again. If the pump still does not work, contact the pump manufacturer. Both the E-Z Treat treatment unit and drip irrigation pump controls shall include, but not be limited to an "auto/manual" system control switch, stop/start switch, non-resettable elapsed time recorder for each pump, and individual pump run lights. Both pump control panels shall contain NEMA 4X enclosures. All supporting control units, if not housed within the pump control panels, shall be in a separate NEMA 4X enclosure. No heavy traffic shall be driven over the treatment units or drip fields at any time. This access is restricted in order to protect the health and safety of people. It is important that the drip area in non -wooded or compacted areas be seeded with grasses or trees to establish vegetation. The vegetation will absorb any nutrients remaining in the treated wastewater, and the treated wastewater will promote the growth of the vegetation. The vegetation will absorb any nutrients remaining in the treated wastewater, and the treated wastewater will promote the growth of the vegetation. The vegetation will need to be maintained so that it does not interfere with the performance of the drip irrigation system. System Maintenance To ensure a smooth operating system, regular maintenance shall be performed on each treatment unit. The maintenance for each unit is detailed on the plans and is displayed in the following table. Further system maintenance information shall refer to the manufacturer's literatures.

MacConnell, P.E. Subject: 386 Blue Violet Way Project No.: A75801.00 This technical memorandum is a request for a design daily flow exemption to a residential dwelling using low flow fixtures as provided for in Session Law 2013-413 (House Bill 74) and Session Law 2014-120 Section 53 which relates to Rule 15A NCAC 18A .1949. Neither the State nor local health department shall be liable for any damages caused by an engineered system approved or permitted pursuant to Session Law 2014-120 Section 53. The Owner, Peter Nolan, proposes to construct a 5-bedroom single family dwelling on Lot 50 in the Rosemont Subdivision in Chatham County. The street address is 386 Blue Violet Way, Durham, NC 27713. A 20 percent flow reduction is requested so that the home may be permitted as a 5-bedroom without needing to increase the size of the drainfield. The treatment system is sized for the unadjusted flow of 600-GPD. The irrigation field is sized for the disposal flow (design flow) of 480-GPD. This request is for a flow reduction per provisions provided in Session Law 2013-413 and Session Law 2014-120. Typically, the basis for the design flow is provided in 15A NCAC 18A and prior regulations. The applicable regulations which preceded the 15A NCAC 18A rules and which served as the basis in determining flow in the 15A NCAC 18A rules: dates well before The Energy Policy Act of 1992 which established maximum flow rates for various fixtures in a nationwide effort to reduce both energy and water use. The flows which were established in the Act have recently been further reduced through the WaterSense program, which allows for labeling of fixtures which meet minimum criteria and conserve water. Table 1 below identifies the type of fixture, flows for fixture (and washer) for the basis of the rule when the rule was implemented (Flow A) and flows for example fixtures which have been provided (Flow B). The savings or water conservation from rule based flows and the proposed fixtures and washer are presented in both flow and percent below. Flows presented below are based off standard fixtures that are able to attain a flow reduction. Installed fixtures will be determined during the final inspection of the house once built. For this lot, it is assumed the ultimate owner of this house will be providing the washer unit. Therefore, there is no water savings accounted for the washer.

We are requesting a 20 percent reduction or a design flow for irrigation of 480-GPD. The treatment system will need to be sized for the organic loading or non -adjusted flow of 600-GPD. Analysis of wastewater shows that with the flow reduction, the waste is not considered high strength at presented below: Base Flow Concentrations Reduced Flow Concentration High (5/4) Strength BODs 220 mg/1 275 mg/l 350 mg/l TSS 220 mg/l 275 mg/1 350 mg/1 The effluent from the septic tank is expected to be similar to a non -reduced flow effluent. Please note that the treatment system (septic, recirculation, and field dosing tanks) will be sized for a non -reduced flow of 600-GPD per North Carolina Onsite Wastewater Rules. Based on this analysis, the proposed modifications provide sufficient capacity for the proposed surface drip irrigation system. We respectfully ask for acceptance of this proposal. 3 Table of Contents l . Rule basis of flow and effective dates of rule. 2. Typical indoor water use. 3. Proposed fixtures. 4.

Introduction The WaterSense program released its High -Efficiency Lavatory' Faucet Specification (specification) on October 1, 2007, to promote and enhance the market for water -efficient lavatory faucets. The goal of this specification is to allow consumers to identify and differentiate products in the marketplace that meet this specification's criteria for water efficiency and performance. This specification addresses lavatory faucets and lavatory faucet accessories' in private use, such as those found in residences, and private restrooms in hotels and hospitals. Since these types of faucets are used primarily for hand washing and other sanitary activities, such as face washing and razor rinsing, WaterSense believes that maximum flow rates can be reduced enough to impact national water consumption while at the some time not negatively impacting user satisfaction. This specification is not intended to address kitchen faucets, which have a very different set of uses and performance criteria, or public restroorn faucets (e.g., airports, theaters, arenas, stadiums, offices, and restaurants), which already have national performance standards and criteria to which they should conform. 11, Current Status of Faucets WaterSense estimates that currently there are 222 million residential lavatory faucets in the United States. This estimate is based on an assumed one-to-one ratio of lavatory faucets to residential bathrooms? In addition to the existing stock, approximately 25 million new faucets are sold each year for installation in new homes or replacement of aging fixtures in existing homes a Of these 25 million faucets, roughly two-thirds of those are lavatory faucets (approximately 17 million units). Residential lavatory and kitchen faucets account for Lavatory is the terminology used in the Energy Policy Act of 1992 and ASME A112.18.1 to describe the types of faucets to which the standards apply. In this specification, lavatory means any bathroom sink faucets intended for private use. 2 Accessory, as defined in ASME 112.18.1. means a component that can, at the discretion of the user, be readily added, removed, or replaced, and that, when removed, will not prevent the fitting from fulfilling its primary function. For the purpose of this specification, an accessory can include, but is not limited to lavatory Faucet flow restrictors, flow regulators, aerator devices, laminar devices, and pressure compensating devices. 9 U.S. Census Bureau, American Housing Surveys for the United States, 1970-2003. 4 Business Trend Analysts, 2006. "20OW006 Outlook for the U.S. Plumbing Fixtures and Fittings Industry.' <www.mindbranch.comlcatalog/print_product_page jsp?code=R225-358> Version 1.0 1 October 1, 2007 EPA 4. WaterSense High -Efficiency Lavatory Faucet Specification Supporting Statement approximately 15.7 percent of indoor residential water use in the United States5—equivalent to more than 1.1 trillion gallons of water used each year. The Energy Policy Act of 1992 originally set the maximum flow rate for both lavatory and kitchen faucets at 2.5 gallons per minute (gpm) at 80 pounds per square Inch (psi) static pressure. In 1994, American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Al 12.18.1 M-1994-Plumbing Supply Fittings set the maximum flow rate for lavatory faucets at 2.2 gpm at 60 psi. In response to industry requests for conformity with a single standard, in 1998, the U.S. Department of Energy adopted the 2.2 gpm at 60 psi maximum flow rate standard for all faucets (see 63 FR 13307, March 18, 1998). This national standard is codified in the U.S. Code of Federal RegulaVons at 10 CFR Part 430.32. As a point of reference, the maximum flow rates of many of the pre-1992 faucets range from 3 to 7 gpm, Other than the aforementioned maximum Bow rate standards, there currently are no universally accepted performance tests or specifications (e.g., rinsing or wetting performance standards) for faucets. 111. WaterSense High -Efficiency Lavatory Faucet Specification ScoDe The WaterSense program developed this specification to address criteria for improvement and recogn ition of water -efficient and high-performance lavatory faucets and lavatory faucet accessories. WaterSense labeled lavatory faucet accessories can be incorporated into the design of new faucets to control the flow rate and provide the mechanism for meeting this specification's criteria, or can be purchased separately and retrofit onto existing older faucets to provide water efficiency and performance. This specification focuses solely on the category of lavatory faucets intended for private use because of the differences in the uses and performance expectations between private lavatory faucets and kitchen or public restroom faucets. Lavatory faucets are used primarily for hand washing and other sanitary activities, such as teeth brushing, face washing, and shaving. For these activities, discussions with faucet manufacturers and water utility representatives provided a general consensus that a reduction in the maximum flow rate from 2.2 gpm (the current federal water -efficiency standard) to 1.5 gpm, as established by this specification, is not very noticeable for most users. The most noticeable differences are increased wait times when filling the basin or waiting for hot water. While decreasing a faucet's maximum flow rate increases user wait time for these activities, WaterSense determined the potential water savings gained from the primary use of lavatory faucets (i.e., washing and rinsing) outweigh any potential inconvenience caused by increased wait times and will not negatively impact overall user satisfaction. Kitchen sink faucets were excluded from this specification because the different uses and user expectations require other considerations for defining performance. One major performance consideration is a kitchen faucet's ability to effectively rinse dishes. Kitchen faucets also are commonly used for pot or container filling, and significantly increased wait times might not be acceptable to most users. WaterSense determined that reducing the maximum flow rates of kitchen faucets would create issues of user satisfaction and be counter to its program goals of 6 Mayer, Peter W. and William B. DeOreo. Residential End uses of Water. Aquacraft. Inc. Water Engineering and Management. American Water Works Association. 1998. Version 1.0 2 October 1, 2007 EPA WaterSense High -Efficiency Lavatory Faucet Specification Supporting Statement increasing efficiency while maintaining or Improving performance. In order to maintain user satisfaction and ensure a high level of performance, a maximum flow rate greater than what is suitable for lavatory faucets might need to be considered for kitchen faucets. Some type of wetting or rinsing performance test also might need to be included. In addition, there is an emerging area of research and development in multiposltion control lever faucet technologies that offer users °high" and °low" settings for different activities. While performance data are not yet available, these technologies might prove to be effective in using water more efficiently. For these reasons, WaterSense intends to evaluate the possibility of developing a WaterSense specification for kitchen faucets at a later date. Public restroom and metering faucets (faucets that are set to discharge a specific amount of water or run for a specified period of time for each use) also were excluded from this specification because of their differing uses and performance expectations and because standards governing their maximum flow rate already exist. Public restroom faucets, for example, are used almost exclusively for hand washing or simple rinsing, compared to lavatory faucets in homes and In other private bathrooms that facie a myriad of uses. As a consequence, the maximum flow rate for these public restroom and metering fixtures can be set significantly lower than the flow rate for private lavatory faucets without negatively impacting user satisfaction. Also, a separate set of standards already apply to these types of fixtures. Codified in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations at 10 CFR Part 430 (specifically §430.32(o) Faucets) are standards setting the maximum flow rate for metering faucets at 0.25 gallons/cycle. Section 5.4.1 and Table 1 of ASME Al 12.18.1/CSA B125.1--Plumbing Supply Fittings also establish the maximum flow rates for pubic lavatory (other than metering) faucets at 0.5 gpm. As a consequence, this category of faucet is not covered by the current specification. If WaterSense decides to address water efficiency and performance for these types of faucets, it will do so under a separate specification at a later time. Water -Efficiency and Performance Criteria The water -efficiency component of this specification establishes a maximum flow rate of 1.5 gpm at an inlet pressure of 60 psi. Lowering the maximum flow rate from 2.2 gpm to 1.5 gpm (both at 60 psi) represents a 32 percent reduction, which is consistent with WaterSense's staffed goal of improving efficiency by at least 20 percent. Even when installed in systems with high water pressure (up to 80 psi), faucets designed to this specification will have maximum flow rates of approximately 1.75 gpm, which still represents a greater than 20 percent increase in efficiency. WaterSense chose to specify a test pressure of 60 psi to maintain consistency with the current industry standard (ASME Al 12.1 8.1—Plumbing Supply Fittings) to which all faucets sold in the United States must comply. The requirements of this specification are also in harmony with other International standards. The Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Committee established standards for the rating and labeling of water -efficient products (AS/NZS 6400:2005). As part of the standard, water -efficient faucets are rated on a scale of 1 to 6 based on maximum flow rates. Under this system, comparable 1.5 glom WaterSense labeled lavatory faucets would receive a 5 out of 6 star rating, meeting criteria for maximum flow rates between 4.5 liters per minute (Lfmin) (1.2 gpm) and 6.0 L/min (1.6 gpm). Version 1.0 3 October 1, 2007 EPA 4. WaterSense High -Efficiency Lavatory Faucet Specificetion Supporting Statement Meeting or exceeding user expectations via the establishment of performance criteria for WaterSense labeled products is an important aspect of the WaterSense program. From the outset of discussions with interested parties, WaterSense was aware that performance of water - efficient lavatory faucets is affected by low water pressures. To ensure user satisfaction with WaterSense labeled lavatory faucets or lavatory faucet accessories across a range of possible user conditions, WaterSense has established a minimum flow rate of 0.8 gpm at 20 psi in the specification. In developing these water -efficiency and performance criteria, WaterSense evaluated comments received during the draft specification's public fonrm and public comment period (see Response to issues Raised During Public Comment an February 2007 Draft Specification for Water5enseu Labeling of High-Ef aiency Lavatory Faucets). WaterSense also considered user satisfaction data generated from four high-efficlency lavatory faucet retrofit studies and the impact of pressure changes on product flow rates for various types of lavatory faucet accessories. WaterSense established a maximum flow rate of 1.5 gpm at 60 psi because interested parties that provided comments on the draft specification generally agreed that a flow rate of 1.5 gpm would provide no noticeable difference for most users. In addition, data collected from retrofit studies demonstrate a high level of user satisfaction with high -efficiency lavatory faucets that have maximum flow rates of 1.0 and 1.5 gpm. Aquacraft, Inc. conducted retrofit studies in Seattle, Washington (2000)B and East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD), California (2003)7 in which they replaced existing lavatory faucet aerators with 1.5 gpm pressure compensating aerators. In the Seattle study, 58 percent of the participants felt their faucets with the new aerators performed the same or better than their old faucet fixtures and 50 percent stated they would recommend these aerators to others. In the EBMUD study, 80 percent of the participants felt their faucets with the now aerators performed the same or better than their old faucet fixtures, and 67 percent stated they would recommend these aerators to others. A third Aquacraft, Inc. retrofit study conducted in Tampa, Florida (2004)8 replaced existing lavatory faucet aerators with 1.0 gpm pressure compensating aerators. The participants in this study were receptive to an even higher -efficiency fixture, with 89 percent saying their new aerators performed the same or better than their old faucet fixtures and would recommend them to others. Seattle Public Utilities also provided WaterSense with survey results of customer use and satisfaction with 1.0 gpm pressure compensating aerators distributed through the utility's direct -mall showerhead and faucet aerator pilot program. According to Its survey, 94 percent of the participants that received the free aerators installed them and only 2 percent disliked the aerators and removed them.° 6 Seattle Horns Water Conservation Study.

"Showerhead/Aerator Pilot Program Summary." Unpublished. Versfon 1.0 4 October 1, 2007 CPA 6- WaterSense High -Efficiency Lavatory Faucet Specfication Supporting Statement WaterSense established a minimum flow rate of 0.8 gpm at 20 psi for several reasons. First, WaterSense felt this minimum now rate was reasonable to ensure user satisfaction in homes with low water pressure based on comments that were received regarding the draft specfication. Second, WaterSense received comments from several utilities regarding programs In which 1.0 gpm lavatory faucet aerators are provided to customers. These products have shown a high level of user satisfaction, and WaterSense wants to recognize these products and the efforts of the utilities to ensure that additional water savings can be achieved through such programs. Third, WaterSense wants to avoid restricting design options to the extent possible. The specification leaves open the possibility for the use of fixed orifice flow control devices (with a maximum flow rate of 1.5 gpm) instead of restricting manufacturers to the use of pressure compensating devices. Under the specification, a 1.5 gpm maximum flow rate fixed orifice aerator could qualify for use of the label (according to currently available product specifications and flow curves). Pressure compensating devices with maximum flow rates between 1.5 and 1.0 gpm could also qualify for the use of the WaterSense label (according to currently available product specifications and flow curves). WaterSense believes that this approach allows for the greatest degree of design freedom for manufacturers and supports existing utility programs, while still ensuring a high level of performance and user satisfaction. In order for high -efficiency lavatory faucets to effectively emerge in the market following the release of the final version of this specification, the market must Ideally be equipped to produce the faucets or faucet technology that the specification requires. WaterSense is not currently aware of any lavatory faucets on the market with a maximum flow rate of 1.6 gpm. There are, however, several types and models of faucet components and accessories currently available that have the capability to control the flow to the level that is required by this specification. As a result, WaterSense is confident that faucets and faucet accessories that meet the requirements of this specification can be readily brought to market. Potential Water and EneMy Savings To estimate water and energy savings that can be achieved by products that meet this specification, WaterSense examined the Seattle (2000) and EBMUD (2003) Aquacraft retrofit studies, which provided actual water consumption reductions generated by the Installation of high -efficiency, pressure-oompensating 1.5 gpm aerators on lavatory faucets. WaterSense expects the results under this specification to be similar to what was found in these two studies. These studies indicate that installing high -efficiency aerators can yield significant reductions in household water consumption. Post faucet retrofit, the weighted average dally per capita reduction in water consumption achieved was 0.6 gallons per capita per day (gcpd). It is Important to note that in both of these studies, kitchen faucets in each household were retrofitted with 2.2 gpm pressure compensating aerators. While these retrofits contributed in part to overall reductions in household water consumption, the retrofits simply brought those kitchen sink faucets up to current water -efficiency standards, therefore. WaterSense decided to set aside this confounding influence in order to estimate the water savings. Assuming the average household consists of 2.6 people, this equates to an average annual household savings of approximately 570 gallons of water (see Calculation 1).

WaterSense Specification peclflcatlon for Showerheads -- -- - - Su_panrki[t9ttt WaterSense® Specification for Showerheads Supporting Statement Introduction Showering is one of the leading uses of water inside the home, representing approximately 17 percent of annual residential indoor water use in the United States. This translates into more than 1.2 trillion gallons of water consumed each year',. The WaterSense program released Its final specification for showerheads on March 4, 2010, to capitalize on this opportunity to further improve the nation's water and energy efficiency by raising consumer awareness and promoting the use of more efficient showerheads. The intent of this specification is to help consumers identify those products that have met EPA's criteria for water efficiency and performance. WaterSense collaborated with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASMEYCanadlan Standards Association (CSA) Joint Harmonization Task Force to develop the specification criteria for high -efficiency showerheads. This task force Is open to the public and comprises a wide variety of stakeholders, including showerhead manufacturers, water and energy utilities, testing laboratories, consultants, and other water-efflclency and conservation speclallsts. Their participation, resources, and expertise enabled WaterSense to evaluate showerhead efficiency and performance and develop meaningful testing protocols that can effectively differentiate showerhead performance. Prior to the task force's work there were no universally accepted criteria for measuring showerhead performance. Federal water -efficiency legislation and national performance standards only establish product flow rates that dictate water consumption --they do not address what makes a satisfactory, or unsatisfactory, shower. Now, with this specification, WaterSense and the task force have bridged this consumer Information gap by incorporating performance requirements for products seeking to earn the WaterSense label. The requirements address flow rates across a range of pressures, spray force, and spray coverage, three key attributes of showerhead performance, according to consumer testing. These new requirements are designed to ensure a high level of performance and user satisfaction with high -efficiency showerheads. It. Current Status of Showerheads With nearly 110 million occupied housing units in the United States and an average of two showerheads per household¢, WaterSense estimates that there are 220 million showerheads Assumes a per capita shower use of 11.6 gallons. See Mayer, Peter W. and William B. DeOreo. Residential End Uses of Water. Aquaeraft, Inc. Water Engineering and Management. American Water Works Association. 1998.

WaterSense also estimates that approximately 10 percent of the existing 220 million showerheads are replaced each year due to wear, remodeling, or other reasons. This means that the vast majority of these existing showerheads have flow rates equal to or less than the federal standard of 2.5 gallons per minute (gpm), which was mandated by the Energy Policy Act (EPAct) of 1992. With normal replacements and units sold for new construction, WaterSense estimates that approximately 25.6 millions new showerheads are sold each year. Since Congress enacted the federal requirements in the early 1990s. manufacturers have gone on to develop showerheads that use significantly less water than the flow rates set in EPAct 1992. These high -efficiency showerheads can save at least 20 percent compared to standard fixtures, resulting in a potential savings of more than 1,200gallons per showerhead per year. Ill. WaterSense Specification for Showerheads oe This specification applies to showerheads and hand-held showers. Showerheads are fixed devices for directing water onto a user for bathing purposes. Hand-held showers, a subset of showerheads, are moveable devices for directing water onto a user. Hand-held showers can be installed on a support to function as a showerhead. Multiple showerheads are eligible to receive the WaterSense label provided the showerheads are sold in combination in a single device intended to be connected to a single shower outlet. Further, each showerhead must meet all of the requirements of the specification and the entire multiple -head system must meet the maximum flow rate requirement of the specification in all possible operating modes. Body sprays are excluded from this specification because their function and design are wholly different than that of a showerhead or hand-held shower. Retrofit devices, including aftermarket flow control devices, are also excluded because the intent of the specification is to recognize and label complete, fully functioning fixtures or fittings, and not individual components. Genera!_ Requirements Many showerheads are sold with multiple modes to provide the user with options for different spray types (e.g., misting, massaging, or pause). WaterSense wants to maintain manufacturing flexibility and consumer choice for multiple mode showerheads, thus the specification addresses these types of showerheads by requiring all modes to meet the maximum flow rate requirement (Le., no mode can exceed 2.0 gallons per minute [gpm]) and at least one of the modesas specified by the manufacturer, must most all of the requirements contained in the specification, including the maximum and minimum flow rates, spray force, and spray coverage requirements. Water-Eft-ency Criteria 5 Units sold for replacement Is based upon a 10 percent natural replacement rate. Units sold for new construction is based on 1,797,000 new housing starts per year based on the average number of new housing starts from 2003-2007.from U.S. Census. 2007 American Housing Survey, Table 1A-1. www.censu9.aovlDrod12008aubs1h 150-07.odf, Version 1.0 2 March 4, 2010 EPA 6 W_OtCr5ense.__ WaterSense Specification for Showerheads _. _...._&Pltpl trinet"t mot The water -efficiency component of this specification establishes a maximum flow rate of 2.0 gpm (7.6 liter per minute [Umin]). WaterSense settled on this flow rate after examining the range of products currently available on the market. This maximum flow rate represents a 20 percent reduction from the current federally allowable maximum flow rate of 2.5 gpm established by EPAct 1992, which is consistent with WaterSense's stated water -efficiency goal. The specification also includes minimum flow rate requirements at 80, 45, and 20 pounds per square inch (psi) of pressure (the upper, mid, and lower range of potential household pressures) to ensure performance and user satisfaction under a variety of household conditions. Specifically, at 455 and 80 psi the tested flow rate cannot be less than 75 percent of the showerhead's maximum "rated' flow rate value. This minimum requirement Is specified at both 45 and 80 psi because some showerheads that are designed to compensate and adjust for changes In water pressure will actually produce maximum flow at 45 psi and not at 80 psi. As a result, WaterSense wants to ensure that this minimum flow rate requirement is met at both pressures. Likewise, at 20 psi the tested flow rate cannot be less than 60 percent of the showerhead's maximum rated flow rate value. Table 1 below provides some examples of the allowable minimum flow rates for showerheads with various rated flow rates. Mining minimum flow rate requirements in this manner ensures that the showerhead is designed to provide consistent flow across a range of pressures. Table 1. Example Minimum Flow Rates Showerhead Rated Flow Rate i Minimum Allowable Flow Rate 80 t 43 psi 20 i 2.0 gpm 1.5 gpm 1.5 gpm 1.2 apm 1.75 gpm 1.3 gpM pm 1.1 gpM 1.5 gpm 1.1 gpm 1.1 nom 0.8 gpm 1.0 gpm 0.8 Opm 0.8 gem 0.6 gpm WaterSense is requiring both the maximum and minimum flow rates of the showerhead to meet the testing and verification protocols for sampling outlined in the Code of Federal Regulatroris (see 10 CFR 430 Subpart F, Appendix B, Steps 6[b] and 6[a], respectively). The U.S. Department of Energy currently uses the sampling plan outlined in the CFR for assessing compliance of showerhead flow rates with EPAct 1992 requirements, and thus referencing it in this specification provides specific and familiar guidance to third -party certifying bodies for determining whether a showerhead meets the flow rate requirements established by WaterSense. Performance Criteria Establishing performance -based criteria for WaterSense labeled showerheads is critical to ensuring user satisfaction and maintaining the integrity of the WaterSense label. Prior 10 this specification, however, there were no universally agreed -upon testing protocols for showerhead performance or measures that adequately defined user satisfaction. WaterSense worked with The "rated" flow rate is the showerhead's maximum flow rate, as specified by the manufacturer, verified through testing, and In compliance with thle specification. Verslan 1.0 3 Mamh 4. 2010 WaterSense Specification for Showerheads --_ lummfn-s R-4tnMent the task force to determine, through its expertise and supported by consumer testing, the key performance attributes of showerheads. To measure those attributes in a laboratory setting, the task force undertook an intensive effort to develop test protocols. The spray force and spray coverage requirements contained in the specification are a result of these efforts. Both test protocols subsequently underwent several iterations of round robin testing in various laboratories by multiple manufacturers and independent third -party certifiers in order to ensure that the procedures are repeatable and the results reproducible. laboratory test data were then compared back to the consumer test data for a variety of showerheads to determine the specific performance levels that are included in the specification. These performance levels define the boundaries for user satisfaction for both spray force and spray coverage. The spray force component of the specification requires a showerhead's spray force to be at least 2.0 ounces (0.56 newtons [NJ) at an inlet pressure of 20 psi when the water is flowing. The testing procedure, described in Appendix A of the specification, is a passffall test that assesses the relative force of the shower spray through the use of a force balance fixture. The force balance fixture is equipped with a force target on one side that receives the shower spray and counterbalancing weights on the other side, set to the specified force (i.e., 2.0 ounces). As the shower spray hits the force target, the force balance fixture measures the rotation angle of the balance at the pivot point of the two sides (the spray and counterbalancing weights). If the shower spray force Is greater than the specified minimum, it will overcome, or move, the counterbalancing weights to or beyond the point of balance, achieved when the angle rotates within 0.1 ° of zero or past It. Under this scenario the showerhead would pass the force requirements. If the showerhead's force Is less than the specified minimum, it will not overcome the counterbalancing weights and the angle of balance will not rotate within 0.1" of zero or past it. Under this scenario, the showerhead would fail the force requirements. The target force of 2.0 ounces specified In the speciflcatlon represents the lower bounds of user satisfaction based on results from consumer tests using a variety of showerheads. The spray coverage component of the specification, as described in Appendix B of the specification, requires the use of an annular ring gauge consisting of a series of concentric rings, starting with a 24nch diameter center ring and each successive ring Increasing in diameter by 2 inches out to 20 inches. The showerhead is positioned and turned on directly above the surface of the annular ring gauge. The relative amount of water captured in each set of concentric rings provides a representation of the distribution of the spray pattern and can be used to evaluate the showerhead's spray coverage. Simultaneous to the development of the test apparatus, WaterSense gathered consumer test data to determine user preferences with respect to spray coverage. Data showed general dissatisfaction with showerheads that spray with a hollow spot in the center or that have too much water flowing in the center to form a very narrow beam. Thus the criteria contained in the specification were crafted to capture and disqualify showerheads with these types of coverage characteristics. Specifically, to meet the spray coverage requirement, the total volume of water collected in the two center rings (out to 4 inches) cannot exceed 75 percent of the total collected water volume (i.e., the showerhead cannot deliver all its water through a narrow beam in the center). In addition, the total combined volume of water collected in the three center rings (out to Version 1.0 4 Maw 4 2010 zrn WaterSense Specification for Showerheads _-- .----.-_ _ Sup-Pprting Sty ome-nt B Inches) must be at least 25 percent of the total collected water volume (i.e., the showerhead cannot have a hollow spot in the center). M h With this specification, WaterSense has adopted a new approach to product and package flow rate marking. The requirements are designed to clarJfy and clearly indicate which maximum flow rate value the manufacturer is to use. At the outset of certification, the manufacturer specifies a maximum flow rate value {"rated flow rate), not to exceed 2.0 gpm, which is subsequently verified through testing. WaterSense requires the manufacturer to mark the product and product packaging with this rated flow rate value, so that the information provided to the consumer is both informative and accurate. In addition to marking the product and packaging with the maximum rated flow rate, the product packaging (but not the product itself) must also be marked with the showerhead's minimum flow rate at 45 psi. This minimum flow rate is calculated as 75 percent of the manufacturer`s specified maximum flow rate value and is subsequently verified through testing. The purpose of this marking requirement is to assist installers In properly matching showerheads and auto matic-compensating mixing valves for installation in order to provide protection against thermal shock and scalding events (see Section V below for more information). Potential Water and EnoMy Savings Note: Refer to Appendix A Ibr the assumptions and calculations used to derive these estimates. Showerheads with a flow rate of 2.0 gpm or less have the potential to save significant amounts of water both individually and at the national level. Replacing standard showerheads with WaterSense labeled showerheads could save more than 1,2D0 gallons per showerhead or 2,3D0 gallons of water per household per year. Based upon the amount of water saved, the average household could save 300 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity or 1,500 cubic feet of natural gas that would otherwise be required to heat the water. Nationwide, if WaterSense labeled showerheads were purchased for all normal showerhead replacements and installed in all new construction, WaterSense estimates that water savings could reach 30.3 billion gallons per year. National energy savings could exceed 1.6 billion kWh of electricity and 10.9 million cubic feet (Mcf) of natural gas each year. Cost -Effectiveness Note: Refer to Appendix A for the assumptions and calculations used to derive these estimates. The average homeowner retrofitting his or her showerheads with WaterSense labeled showerheads will realize an accompanying $14 savings on water and wastewater costs annually due to lower water consumption. Factoring in the accompanying energy savings, the average household with electric water heating may save an additional $36, for a combined annual savings of $50. The average household with natural gas water heating may save an additional $18 for a combined annual savings of $32. Version 1.0 5 March 4, 2010 WaterSense Speciffcatfon for Showerheads __ -...__592Portfng RtatMnent if the average showerhead costs $30 retail, the average payback period for the replacement of two standard showerheads per household with WaterSense labeled models would be approximately 14 months for those with electric water heating and about two years for those heating with natural gas. IV. Certification and Labeling WaterSense has established an independent third -party product certification process, described on the WaterSense Web site at www.epa.qoytwatersenseYDaftners/cerdfication.htmI. Under this process, products are certified to conform to applicable WaterSense specifications by accredited third -party licensed certifying bodies. Manufacturers are then authorized to use the WaterSense label in conjunction with certified products. V. Qther Issues Detailed DaWngs tr Me Force BelBelanm Test ApgLratus As the specification indicates, the spray force performance requirement is measured via a force balance test apparatus. This force balance test apparatus was developed by the task force specifically for the purpose of determining a showerhead's compliance with the specification's force requirements; therefore it is not a readily available or mass-produced piece of testing equipment. In addition, the test apparatus needs to be manufactured with very specific tolerances to ensure the results are repeatable and reproducible in any laboratory setting. WaterSense has made available the specification drawings to facilitate the construction of this test equipment. Detailed drawings for the force balance test apparatus are available on the WaterSense Web site at www.epa.gov/watersense/productstshowerheads.htmi. Health and Safefv In developing this specification, WaterSense and the task force considered potential negative Impacts of reducing the flow rate on consumer satisfaction, including potential health and safety issues once these products are installed in the plumbing system. Of particular concern is the potential for increasing the risk of thermal shock or scalding as shower flow rates are reduced. Thermal shock or scalding can be caused when a hot- or cold -water -using device is activated (e.g., flushing the toilet or running the dishwasher) while the shower Is running. Water Is diverted away from the shower, causing a pressure drop in either the hot or cold water supply line to the shower. As a consequence, the balance of hot and cold water is shifted either to a hotter or colder temperature mix. This sudden change in temperature can either cause a user to abruptly move away from the shower stream, potentially resulting in an injury or fall, or if the temperature increase is severe enough, scalding can occur. To mitigate the risks of temperature -related shower injuries, most U.S. plumbing codes require showers to be outfitted with individual automatic -compensating mixing valves that comply with either the American Society of Sanitary Engineers (ASSE)1016 or ASME A112.18.1/CSA 8125.1 standards. An automatic -compensating mixing valve is a device that is installed as part of the shower's flow control that helps to regulate water temperature; it is not part of the showerhead itself. The valve works either through balancing the incoming hot and cold water Versions 1.0 6 Marrh 4, 2010 r Tim 4. f ater et)�St- WaterSense Specification for Showerheads ..,_ -.._ -- 5Luw-9Mfl$ 5tatgment pressures or through controlling the mixed outlet temperature with a thermostatic element that can maintain water temperature to within +/- 3.6°F. Despite advances in plumbing codes and mixing valve technology, thermal shock and scalding risks are still present under two scenarios. First, automatic-oompensating mixing valves are currently only required to be tested and certified at a flow rate of 2.5 gpm at 45 psi. When these devices are outfitted with a showerhead that has a lower flow rate, there may not be adequate assurance that the valve is sensitive enough to provide the required protection. This is potentially true for all showerheads, as standard showerheads are currently tested and certified at a flow rate of 2.5 gpm at 80 psi. Second, not all homes are equipped with an automatic - compensating mixing valve. The risks are of particular concern for showerhead retrofits in homes built prior to 1987. As a part of the development of the criteria for showerheads, WaterSense and the task force evaluated the link between flow rate and temperature deviations associated with pressure and temperature changes. The task force gathered and presented data to compare the temperature profiles that result from a drop In hot and cold water pressure for both standard and high - efficiency showerheads under the two risk scenarios. (1) installation with various types of autornatic-compensating mixing valves (thermostatic, pressure balancing, or combination) designed for a flow rate of 2.5 gpm at 45 psi and (2) installation without the protection of an automatic -compensating mixing valve. The data showed that the risks are present for showerheads of all flow rates, but that more efficient showerheads are more sensitive to sudden changes In water pressure. As a consequence, a temperature change in water exiting the shower may be amplified when the pressure within the cold water or hot water supply plumbing suddenly changes. Ultimately, WaterSense and the task force came to the conclusion that the thermal shock and scalding risks cannot be fully addressed through the specification for showerheads. First, there is a clear disconnect between the showerhead and automatic -compensating mixing valve compatibility, as the products are tested at different pressures (80 psi and 45 psi, respectively) and currently automatic -compensating mixing valves are only tested at a flow rate of 2.5 gpm. Second, the potential temperature of the hot water Is controlled by the design of the hot water heater and delivery system, which can discharge water well in excess of the code required 140°F due to "layering" and the location of the thermostat at a point that is not necessarily the location of the hottest water. Because of the interrelated nature of these three components in the plumbing system, the control of the risks cannot solely rest on the design of the showerhead. In fact, the showerhead itself has very little, If any, control over the outlet water temperature. To the extent possible, WaterSense has addressed this issue in the specification by requiring manufacturers to mark the product packaging with the minimum flow rate at 45 psi as determined by testing at that pressure. This is a vital step toward providing the information necessary to "match" the showerhead with a compatible autornatk-compensating mixing valve that is rated to perform at the same flaw rate and tested pressure. In addition, industry is currently working to harmonize automatic -compensating mixing valve standards and showerhead standards to address potential incompatibilities of these plumbing system components. This will go a long way toward addressing the risks of thermal shock and scalding associated with the Installation of a WaterSense labeled showerheed, indeed with all Version 1.0 7 March 4, 2010 rra 6.

Version 1.2 3 June 2, 2014 PTV 16 WaterSense WaterSense* Specification for Tank -Type Toilets Appendix A: Requirements for WaterSense Labeling The following requirements must be met for products to be bear the WaterSense label. 1.0 WaterSense Partnership The manufacturer3 of the product must have a signed partnership agreement in place with EPA. 2.0 Conformity Assessment Conformance to this specification must be certified by an EPA licensed certifying body accredited for this specification in accordance with the WaterSense Product Cerflfrcaflon Sysfem. 3.0 Clarifications 3.1 Adjustability Toilet tanks with adjustable water use settings that can be identified and activated by a user or plumbing professional to override the rated flush volume, as established by this specification, do not comply with the intent of this specification or the WaterSense program and do not qualify for use of the WaterSense label. 3.2 Tanks and Bowls Manufactured and Sold by Different Companies WaterSense requires every combination tank and bowl to be tested and certified for conformance to this specification in order to ensure that the toilet as a whole provides the expected water efficiency and performance. Wall -hung bowls and in -wall carrier systems manufactured and sold by different companies can earn the WaterSense label, provided that the combination unit Is tested and certified. However, since these products might not necessarily be sold as a unit, WaterSense has established some additional certification requirements that these products must meet in order to earn the WaterSense label. Both manufacturers must agree to have their products tested and certified together in order for the tank and bowl combination to receive the WaterSense label. Certification Listing In order to control the use of the WaterSense label, EPA is requiring each manufacturer (e.g., the tank manufacturer and the bowl manufacturer) to obtain a certification listing with one of EPA's licensed certifying bodies to show that the tollet, formed by the combination tank and bowl, was certified for conformance to the specificatlon. The listings must identify both components, along with the respective manufacturers' names, 3 Nlanufacturar, as defined in the WaterSense program guidelines, means: "Any organization that produces a product for market that might be eAgible to meet WaterSense criteria far efficiency and performance. Manufacturers can also produce private label' products that are sold under the brand trams of a separate organzation, which is treated as a separate partnedappication from the original product manufacturer." In the case of private labeling, the private labeling organhvifan that ultimately brands the product for sale must have a signed WaterSense partnership agreement in piece with EPA. Version 1.2 A-i June 2, 2014 rh 4k WaterSense WaterSense Specification for Tank -Type Tottets brand names, model names, and model numbers by which the products are identified and sold. Separate listings will allow the licensed certifying body to directly authorize each manufacturer to use the WaterSense label on their tanks or bowls. Note that though a certification listing is required for each manufacturer, WaterSense is not requiring the combination toilet to be tested more than once. The licensed certifying body must ensure that the listing information is complete prior to issuing the certification and the WaterSense label to either manufacturer. As an alternative to separate listings, and at the discretion of the licensed certifying body, the manufacturer of one of the components (e.g., either the tank or bowl manufacturer) can become listed as an additional company under the certification listing of the manufacturer of the corresponding component (e.g., the bowl or tank). However, both components, along with the respective manufacturer's names, brand names, model names, and model numbers by which the products are identified and sold, must be identified under both the certification file owner's listing and the additional company's listing. This will ensure that there Is no confusion about which products were certified in combination to earn the WaterSense label. 3.3 Product Packaging Marking and Lahelir>g Though every combination tank and bowl must be tested and certified for conformance to this specification in order to ensure that the toilet as a whole provides the expected water efficlency and performance, in some cases the tank and bowl might be packaged individually and/or sold separately. To ensure that it is clear to the purchaser that a particular combination tank and bowl is labeled, EPA is providing clarification regarding how the packaging must be marked and how the WaterSense label must be used. These marking and labeling requirements apply to tanks and bowls made by the same company and those made by different companies, as is the case for some wall -hung bowls and in -wall carrier systems. Manufacturers must adhere to the following product packaging marking and labeling requirements for toilet tanks and bowls packaged and sold Individually: • In all cases, the toilet tank and toilet bowl packaging must bear the WaterSense label. Toilet bowl packaging must indicate all of the specific brand names, model names, and model numbers, as applicable, of the counterpart tanks it can be used with to form a WaterSense labeled tank -type toilet. For example, the toilet bowl packaging might say: 'This [insert description of bow!] is WaterSense labeled when used with [list brand names, model names, and model numbers, as applicable, of the tank(s) that the bowl can be used with to form a WaterSense labeled tank -type toilet]," Version 1.2 A-2 June 2, 2014 WaterSensem Specification for Tank -Type Toilets + Product specification sheets or other product documentation for both the toilet tank and bowl must indicate all of the specific brand names, model names, and model numbers, as applicable, of the counterpart products (e.g., the bowl or tank) that the product can be used with to form a WaterSense labeled tank -type toilet. Note that for toilet tanks and bowls packaged and sold together as a unit, the packaging must bear the WaterSense label. Version 1.2 A-3 June 2, 2014 Wi.11A Summary of Revisions to the aterSense WaterSense" Specification for Tank -Type Tollets Summary of Revisions to the WaterSense" Specification for Tank -Type Toilets Version 1, 2 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) WaterSense program is announcing the release of Version 1.2 of its WaterSense Specification for Tank --Type Toilets (specification). The purpose of this document is to summarize the revisions made to the specdiication, share the reasoning for the changes, and provide a timeline for compliance with the new requirements. It is important to note that EPA considers the revisions made in Version 1.2 of the specification to be minor in nature. The revisions are meant to provide clarification of the existing requirements and do not materially affect the scope, performance, or efficiency requirements. The revisions also do not affect the status of existing certified, WaterSense labeled tank -type toilets. Background WaterSense released Its initial Tank -Type High -Efficiency Toilet Specification In January 2007 and issued the first revision to the specification in May 2011. Since that time, the American Socl* of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and Canadian Standards Association (CSA) have revised ASME A 1 12.19.21CSA B45.1 Ceramic Plumbing Fbdur9es to include the waste media extraction test, fill valve integrity test, and tank trim adjustabllity test protocols established In the WaterSense Speciiic&Ubn for Tank --Type Toilets. To align with the revised ASME Al 12.19.2iCSA 1345.1 standard, to the extent possible, WaterSense is issuing Version 1.2 of the specification. The changes to the specification, described in this document, will ensure consistency and reduce redundancy in toilet testing for manufacturers seeking the WaterSense label. WaterSense has also taken this opportunity to make some additional minor revisions to the specification to align it with the other WaterSense product specifications. All of the revisions contained in Version 1.2 will ensure that tank -type toilets receiving the WaterSense label are certified and labeled consistently, in accordance with EPA's intent, and will continue to meet consumer expectations for efficiency and performance. Section 2.0 General Requirements EPA has revised the title of the section from "Summary of Criteria" to "General Requirements. This change does not affect the specification's original scope of objective, but rather aligns the organization of the specification with other WaterSense product specifications. Similarly, to align with other WaterSense product specifications, EPA has revised the content of Section 2.0 to provide the general and overarching requirements that products must meet to eam the WaterSense label, rather than a summary of the specification requirements. This section now indicates that all tank -type toilets shall conform to the applicable water closet requirements in ASME All 12.19.21CSA 1345.1, and all dual -flush tank -type toilets must conform to applicable requirements within ASME A112.19.14 Six -Liter Water Clarets Equipped With a June 2, ,2014 Wr I1A Summary of Revisions to the aterSense WaterSense" Specification for Tank -Type Toilers Dual Flushing Device. This change now more fully and clearly aligns the specification with the requirements of the guiding national standards for tank -type toilets. Section 3.0 Water Efficiency Criteria Flush Volume Measurement Requirements The majority of the fixture performance testing protocol, originally provided in Appendix A of the specification, is included In the recent revisions to the ASME Al 12.19.2/CSA 845.1 standard. The fixture performance testing protocol is now incorporated by reference in Section 2.0 of the specification. However, the ASMEICSA standard does not address the average flush volume limits that dictate whether a toilet is deemed to pass or fail the flush volume test or whether the flush volume should be adjusted to complete the test. As a result, WaterSense has retained these requirements in the specification. As discussed below, Appendix A was removed from the specification because a majority of the requirements are now redundant with the Al12.19.2/CSA B45.1 standard; therefore, WaterSense moved these flush volume limit requirements to Section 3.0 iA/aterr Efficiency Criteria. This change does not affect the specification's original requirements or intent. Section 4.0 Flush Performance Criteria Testing Protocol Reference In Version 1.1 of the specification, the fixture performance testing protocol was identified in Appendix A. Since the protocol is now included in the recant revisions to the ASME Al 12.19.21CSA B45.1 standard, WaterSense has updated Section 4.0 Flush Performance Criteria to reference compliance with the standard rather than Appendix A (Appendix A has been subsequently deleted). In addition, under Version 1.1, this section summarized the test media requirements. It also stipulated that the protocol was only applicable to sing"ush toilets and to the full flush option of dual -flush toilets. These requirements are also covered in the referenced standards and, therefore, WaterSense removed them from this section to minimize redundancy. In addition, In the development of the revised ASME Al 12,19.21CSA 845.1 standard, there was consensus that the casing used for the test media did not materially affect the results of the test. Elther cased or uncased media were deemed acceptable for performance testing. In view of this decision and because of the desire for the WaterSense specification to be consistent with the standard, EPA has determined that performance testing using cased or uncased media is acceptable under this specification. This allowance is included by reference to the standard. Section 5.0 Supplementary Requirements for Flush Volume Adjustabliiity (Version 1.1) Section Removal June 2, 2a14 VA Summary of Revisions to the WaterSense WaterSensee Specification for Tank -Type Toilets in Version 1.1 of the specification, Section 5.0 Supplementary Requiraments for Flush Volume Adjustability included testing protocols intended to limit the flush volume adjustability of certified tank -type toilets. These testing protocols Included the fill valve Integrity test protocol (Appendix B of Version 1.1 of the specification) and the tank trim adjustability testing protocol (Appendix C of Version 1.1 of the specification). These testing protocols were adopted by the ASME Al 12.19.2/CSA B45.1 standard, which is now incorporated by reference in Section 2.0 of the specification. Therefore, WaterSense removed these requirements from the specification to minimize redundancy. This change does not affect the specification's original requirements or intent. Section 5.0 Product Marking Tank Marking Requirements Toilet tank marking requirements Identified in ASME Al 12.19.5 Flush valves and spuds for water closets, urinals, and tanks (referenced in Version 1.1 of the specification) require manufacturers to permanently mark or label the tank with information pertaining to the appropriate flush valve replacement parts. These requirements have subsequently been incorporated into ASME Al12.19.21CSA B45.1. Therefore, WaterSense updated the specification to reference compliance with the toilet fixture marking requirements identified in the ASME Al 12.19.2/CSA B45.1 standard. Bowl Marking Version 1.1 of the specification allowed toilet bowls to be marked in a manner that indicated compatibility with flush volumes below 1.6 gallons per flush (gpf). This requirement was intended to alleviate confusion because many manufacturers were marking their toilet bowls with a 1.6 gpf flush volume despite compatibility and certification with tanks that flush at lower volumes (e.g., 1.28 gpf). The revisions to ASME Al12.19.2/CSA M.1 now include provisions clarifying the marking requirements for bowls that are compatible with lower (or varying) flush volumes. Specifically, the standard allows toilet bowls to be marked using the words "or less," a dual consumption marking, or a consumption range. WaterSense is incorporating by reference the bowl marking requirements from the ASME/CSA standard, which will provide clarity on the appropriate ways to mark bowls that are compatible with a range of flush volumes. However, WaterSense is taking exception to the allowance for the use of the words "or less." Placing a marking on the bowl that identifies a maximum flush volume along with the words "or less" could imply that the bowl is compatible with tanks of any flush volume, potentially below the minimum the flush volumes with which the bowl was certified to perform. Section 8,0 Definitions Referenced Standards June 2, 2014 W,. Pik Summary of Revisions to the aterSense WaterSense" Specification for Tank -Type Toilets WaterSense has removed the reference to ASME Al12,19.5, as the marking requirements have been incorporated into ASME Al 12.19.2/CSA B45,1. Definitions WaterSense has removed the definition of an electrohydraulic toilet because it is incorporated by reference in ASME Al 12.19.2/CSA 545.1. WaterSense has revised the definition of a pressure -assist toilet to use language consistent with definitions included in ASME Al 12.19.2/CSA W.1. WaterSense has revised the definition of rated flush volume to be consistent with the definition included in other WaterSense product specifications. The new definition clarifies that the rated flush volume is specified by the manufacturer and verified through testing to ensure compliance with the specification. Appendix A: Fixture Performance Testing Protocol (Version 1.1) Section Removal As mentioned previously, a majority of the fixture performance testing protocol, originally provided in Appendix A of Version 1.1 of the spedfication, is now incorporated by reference in the ASME All 12.19.2/CSA 045.1 standard. One exception is the flush volume measurement limits that dictate whether the toilet passes, falls, or should be readjusted for testing. To reduce redundancy with the standard, WaterSense has subsequently moved these requirements to Section 3.0 and has removed the entirety of Appendix A from the specification. This change does not affect the specification's original requirements or intent. Appendix B: Fill Valve Integrity Test Protocol (Version 1,1) Section Removal As mentioned previously, the fill valve integrity test protocol, originally provided in Appendix B of Version 1.1 of the specification, is now incorporated by reference in the ASME Al 12.19.2/CSA 845.1 standard. To reduce redundancy with the standard, WaterSense has subsequently removed the entirety of Appendix B from the specification. This change does not affect the specification's original requirements or intent. Appendix C: Tank Trim Adjustability Testing Protocol (Version 1,1) Section Removal As mentioned previously, the tank trim adjustability testing protocol, originally provided in Appendix C of Version 1.1 of the specification, is now incorporated by reference in the ASME Al 12.19.2/CSA B45.1 standard. To reduce redundancy with the standard, WaterSense has June 2, 2014 4 Wi FA Summary of Revisions to the aterSense WaterSense* Specification for Tank -Type Toilets subsequently removed the entirety of Appendix C from the specification, This change does not affect the specificatlon's original requirements or intent. Appendix A: Requirements for WaterSense Labeling Section 3.3 Product Packaging Marking and Labeling Section 3.3 of Appendix A provides additional product packaging marking and labeling requirements for toilet tanks and bowls that are packaged and sold individually. Version 1.1 prohibited the WaterSense label on toilet bowl packaging that indicated compatibility with flush volumes greater than the rated flush volume identified in this specification. WaterSense developed that requirement to prevent confusion about whether a bowl with an advertised flush volume higher than the maximum allowed by the specification was actually labeled. The new bowl marking requirements identified in ASME A112.19.21CSA 845.1, and now incorporated by reference in the specification, should eliminate this confusion as toilet bowls can be marked with a dual consumption marking or a consumption range to indicate compatibility with multiple flush volumes. Therefore, EPA is now requiring the toilet tank and bowl packaging, in all cases, to bear the WaterSense label. Timeltne for Compliance with Version 1.2 of the Specification Version 1.2 of this specification goes into effect June 2, 2014. EPA is providing manufacturers with a six-month grace period to begin complying with the new requirements. By December 2, 2014 all certification activities must be completed in accordance with Version 1.2 of this specification, in order for tank -type toilets to earn the WaterSense label. The existing licensing agreements between EPA and the licensed certifying body will remain in full force and effect. June Z 2014 717 Clothe's Washer use.

Technical Advisory Council Report for Wastewater Flows from Single Family Dwellings. 1 Executive Summary Wastewater Flows from Single Family DweIIings Study done for the Michigan Technical Advisory Connell for Oadte Wastewater Treatment Danielle N. McRwhin and Ted L. Loudon Student Intern and Professor, respectively, Agricultural Engineering Department Michigan State University The purpose of this study was to coiled, organize and present what is ]mown about the amount of wastewater that can be expected to flow from dwellings_ Th goal is to provide designers and regulators with an actual flow based data set from which to develop design flow numbers for sizing systems. The data in this document carves from a variety of sources. Most were found on the lntamet; some were found in the library, and others were provided from file data collected by entities in Michigan. The study was restricted to data collected during the years 1980-2000, so that the values determined would be representative of life Styles of the present generation. In fact, only two numbers in the data tables arr &am before 1997. A group of studies providing metered home water use rates pr+escMed in units of gpd per capita from around the country were reviewed and summazind. When averages were weighted based on the number of homes per study, the overall weighted average per capita daily water use was just under 51 gpd (Table 1). The value of this data is limited by rho fact that much of the data was total use, including outdoor water use, and had to have a correction factor applied. Numerous sources containing recommended per capita design flows were reviewed. Most recommendations are in the 50-70 gpd/c range (Table 4). Perhaps the most valuable data is data gathered in Michigan A study of metered data fiom 700 homes in southern Michigan showed an average daily use per home of214.3 gallons. The three bedroom home average was 221.3 gpd (74 gpolbr) and the four bedroom average was 285.5 gird (71 gpd/br). A study of measured flows from 66 hones in Jackson County showed flows of 56 gpd per bedroom. Average perpetsun Rows, averaged over large numbers of people, appear to be in the 50 55 gpdfo range. Average flows expressed per bedroom, for 3-4 bedroom homes appear to be in the 70 75 gpd/br range. While bedrooms do not generate flow, people do, it is common to design on the basis of member of bedrooms since occupancy varies. For large clusters of homes, designing on the basis of 75 gpd/br would appear to be supported by the data available. For an individual home design, a significant safety or peaking factor must be applied. Many of the references consulted suggest a factor of 2 or even 2.5. Use of a high design flow for individual homes helps to compensate for the state of the art in site evaluation and the occasional high water use occupancy. The Technical Advisory Council will produce a companion guidance document providing recommendations for applying this data in design recommendations. Wastewater blows !roan Single Family Dwellings Study dame for the ll+iiehigan Technical Advisory Council for Onsite Wastewater Treatment Danielle N. Meflachm and Ted L. Loudon Student Intern and professor, respectively, Agricultural Engineering Department Michigan State University Purpose: Rational design ofwastewater treatment and dispersal systems is based on the flow that the system must be able to handle. This is usually expressed on it daily flow basis and typically includes a factor of safety which is large far individual home systems and may be reduced as systems are clustered together. The purpose of this study was to collect, organize and present what is known about the amount of wastewater that can be expected to flow from dwellings. The goal is to provide designers and regulators with an actual t]ow lased data act from which to develop design flow numbers for sizirug systems. The data in this document comes from a variety of sources. Most were found on the Internet, some were found in the library, and others were provided from file data collected by entities ki Michigan. Every effort was made to ensure that the data reflect indoor water use, which eliminates most consumptive uses and represents the flow that Would be expected in the wastewater system. Because consumptive loses are hard to eliminate completely, particularly in arid climates, we restricted our data to the moms humid states. One exception is that a study from Denver. CO is included in which a significant of but was made to eliminate outdoor consultive uses in the design of the study. The umbers in the Colorado study are higher than those from more humid states but we cannot determine exactly what the reason for this might be. Wherever total water use numbers were encountered they were multiplied by a factor of 0.70 to give indoor water use only. These values are indicated by a *. This factor is based on the findings of multiple studies which measured both indoor and outdoor usage. We restricted our selection of data to include only data collected during the years 19M2000, so that the values determined would be representative of life styles of the present generation. In fact, only two numbers in the data tables are from before 1987, and these am from a study deemed to be sufficiently reliable that we did not wish to exclude it The data are divided into four tables. Table 1 contains data from literature and internal sources that were obtained through actual measurement. This means that the numbers were derived from meter readings at occupied residences. These numbers are from studies where multiple homes were metered and the indoor water use was determined. Only some of these studies reported indoor water use only. For those where the reported values were total use, the 0.70 factor was used to obtain indoor water use numbers. See f mhwtes following the tabulated data for the basis of this factor. The study done by the American Water Works Association Research Foundation metered 1188 homes to obtain their data. The Denver Board of Water Commissioners metered 5649 homes in the city and county of Denver. The U.S. Departrnerit of Housing and Urban Development has conducted many studies on residential water use. In some ofdieir work, they designed studies to obtain as diverse a group of homes as possible by gathering data on each household through issuing a questionnaire to each resident. Their study entitled "Water Saved by Low -flow Fb t ma" included water meter data from over 200 homes. They also conducted a study of flow from apartment buildings in which they collected data fiom 23 buildings. The apartments were noted to be especially leaky and they found unusually high per capita water use. The U.S. Geological Survey published a table with water use values for every slate. We selected data from the more humid states and applied the 0.70 factor to obtain indoor water use values. Data were collected from homes when the water supply was from both self -supplied (SS) and public -supplied (PS) sources. Table 2 contains data that was found through actual measurement but is presented as gallons per day per home. The h6chigan study done by Equinox Inc. for use in the design of the Mill Valley Condominium Subdivision metered over 700 homes in Livingston and Oakland counties and determined average water use per dwelling. The first 7 entries in Table 2 represent flows averaged over multiple single family dwellings and would be representative of flows to be expected front a cluster of homes. The average flow equals 159 GPD/home over 640 homes. The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality study involved determination of metered flows fin over 500 homes in Oakland County and Highland Township. Both of then Michigan studies are believed to be highly reliable but resulted in per home flaws that wets higher. Table 3 contains data found through actual measurement but the values were presented in the original studies in units of gallons per day per bedroom. This data is from a study done by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality. In this study, 66 homes were metered in Jackson County and the size of home determined so that the data could be presented in terms of a per bedroom water use average. Table 4 contains data from publications which give representative numbers that are recommended for design of wastewater systems. These are not well referenced so it is unclear whether they originally came from actual use studies or are estimates, possibly including a safety factor, that are simply repeated from another publication. These sources were mostly found on the Internet. After the tables are a set of statements and observations gleaned from literature. The effect of income level and household size on water use is analyzed. Our reasons for using the 0,70 factor are given, a comparison of self -supplied and public -supplied water use is given. Typical tunes of peak water use are analyzed as are the effects of met nng and water pressure. Conclusions that can be drawn_ From Table 1, the per capita metered indoor water use data from nationwide studies show an average value of 69 gallons per person per day. The per capita data obtained by applying the 0.70 factor to total water use data found in hunud climates shows an average value of 55.2 gallons per day, with a self -supplied average of SO.5, a publio-supplied average of 57.7 and a range of 35-86.8. The weighted average per capita water use data for all homes in Table 1 show an overall average use of 50.7 gallons per day, with a self supplied use of 51.1 and apublie-supplied use of 50.47. The per home metered indoor data in Table 2 shows an average of 214.3, with a 3 bedroom average of 221.3, a 4 bedroom average of 285.5 and a range of 140-327. The first 7 entries in Table 2 represents measured flow data frown 640 Michigan homes and shows an average of 159 GPDfliome. The nationwide data seta show somewhat higher per capita water use. Humid region data suggest that average per capita indoor water use averages between 50 and 70 gpd. Total water use per home averages between 160 and 285 GPD with the larger figure for larger homes. This should be considered a work in progress. We would like to include additional data. If the reader has or is aware of additional data that could be included, we would like to receive it. This summary will be modified if additional data are received or otherwise located. Residential Water Consumption Data, From a Variety of Sources Report by. Danielle McEachin Table 1.

Effects of income level and household size on water use: To determine the effects of income, on residential water use, the study "Water Saved by Low -flow Fixtures" by the U.S Department ofHousing and Urban Development compared the average interior water use in gallons per capita -day for each household with the average income range for that household. The scatter plot of this data showed a wide variation of per capita water use within each inomm range. - The average interior water use values for each income bracket were also compared, and showed little or no conebtion between income and water Use. In this same study, the average interior water use in sped was oomparod with household size. A wide variation of water usage within each household size was observed. However, the comparison of average interior water use for each group of household sizes did show a decreasing trend in per capita use as the number ofpeople in the house increased. If outside use were also included in this study, a correlation between income and water use would most likely be observed, due to bigger yard sin and pools. In the study, "Analysis of Residential Use of Water in the Denver Metropolitan Area, Cc", it was found drat Indoor water use convIated best with persons per household and that correlation with assessed value was very low. The Gakland County Water Use/Population Study also showed little or no correlation between assessed value and water use. - It is interesting to note, however, that homes with low incomes may not have washing machines or dishwashers, while homes with higher incomes usually do. This could have a great effect on water use. Indoor water use as a function of total water use: Indoor water use is said to be about seventy-five percent of total water use in the document, "Focus on Residential Water Conservation" by the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service. The book "Snell and Decentralized Wastewater Management Systems" states that, "If a Community has a water system but not a wastewater collection system, the average wastewater flow -rate can be esbmatad by multiplying the water use by a factor of sixty -eighty percent, depending on the landscaping " This is approximately equivalent to saying that base water use is sixty -eighty percent of total water use. The Oakland County Water Use/Population Sturdy shows a difference between winter and summer water use of sixty,six percent Based on these observations some of the total water use data in the above table was multiplied by a factor of 0.70 to get the indoor water use. The study "Analysis of Residential use of Wafter in the Denver Metropolitan Area, Co" states that, "Water used to grow lawns in Denver is forty-two percent of water consumption." This is because Colorado is a very dry state. Times of peak water use: In the study, "Analysis ofAesident ial Use of Water in the Denver Metropolitan Area, Co", it is stated that; `mom water is used in the summer, on Sundays, and from 7 a.m.— 9 am." - On the EPA's website "How Much Drinking Water Do We Use In Our Homes?", it states that - The iowest rate of use is fives 11:30 p.m. to S:W a.m. - Thera is a sharp time in use from 5:00 a.m, to noon, with a peak hourly use from 7:00 a.m. to B:00 a.m. - There is a moderate use from noon to 5:00 p.m., with a lull around 3:00 p.m. There is an increase in use in the evening from 5:00 to 11:00 pin., with the second minor peak from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. Metered versus flat rate customers: The study, "Water Saved by Metering", done by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development comperes metered customers' water use with that of flat rate customers. Denver is unique because it has both metered and flat rate customers. Since 1957, all new homes have been required to be mustered. In spite of this, most customers are flat rate because they pre-existed this policy. Because of this, nearly identical homes in the same area can have different billing systems. To study the effect of metering, one group of twenty-five metered homes and two groups of flat -rate homes (forty-two homes total) were identified, and there water use data collected for a period of threo-years. The test groups were selected so those factors such as fire hydrants and downstream water uses were eliminated. Over the three-year period of data collectio% water use in metered homes averaged about 453 gallons per day (total, 42% is yard watering), and water use in flat -rate homes averaged about 566 gpd. Thus, metered homes used twe "creent less water than flat -rats homes. The basic effect of metering is to reduce the amount of water used for irrigation. Therefore, water use would be reduced more in a dry area such as Deaver than a more humid am. Effect of water pressure on water use: Reducing water pressure can be one means of reducing water use. A decrease in water pressure causes a decrease in water flow related to the square root of pressure drop. Many water use appliances regurbrte the volume of water they use, eliminating the effect of water pressure. Water pressure does, however, have an affect on water leakage and outdoor water tree. The U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development did a study on water pressure entitled, "Effect of Water Pressure on Water Use", in which they studied different pressure zones in Denver, Los Angeles, and Atlanta. They found a difference of about two -three percent in the water use of homes with high compared to low pressure (difference of about 35 psi). Equations Related to Water Use The book, "Small and Decentralized Wastewater Management Systend , states that the equation for flow liiom a residence can be given as: Flow, galJhome*day — 40 galAwme*day +35 gallperson*day x (number of personslhorue). Tbc document, "Water Use", given tome by Larry Stephens describes three types of residences, with separate equations for estimating water use. In a Type I residence the total floor area of the residence divided by the number of bedrooms is more than SOD square feet•, or more than two of the following water -use appliances are installed: automatic washer, dishwasher. in a Type I residence the estimated water use is equal to 150 gpdAndrown, This assumes an occupancy of two people per bedroom, each using 75 gpd. In a Type 11 residence the total floor area of the residence divided by the number of bedrooms is more than 500 square feet and there are no more than two water -use appliances. Water use in a Type ii residence is obtained by multiplying 75 times a factor equal M the number of bedrooms plus one. In a Type III residence the total floor area of the residence divided by the number of bedrooms is more than 500 square feet and then are no more than two water -use appliances. Water use in a Type III residence is obtained from the formnila 66+38(number of bedrooms +1). 8& Anderson, Bill, 2MO. Water Use Trends on the Prairies.

Property location: The Hills of Rosemont Lot 50. Dear Sir: The Chatham County Health Department, Environmental Health Division on November 14, 2003, evaluated the above -referenced property at the site designated on the plat/site plan that accompanied your improvement permit application. According to your application the site is to serve a 5-bedroom residence, with a design wastewater flow of 600 gallons per day. The evaluation was done in accordance with the laws and rules governing wastewater systems in North Carolina General Statute 130A-333 including related statutes and Title 15A, Subchapter 18A, of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Rule. 1900 and related rules. Based on the criteria set out in Title 15A, Subchapter 18A, of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Rules .1940 through .1948, the evaluation indicated that the site is UNSUITABLE for a ground absorption sewage system. Therefore, your request for an improvement permit is DENIED. A copy of the site evaluation is enclosed. The site is unsuitable based on the following: Unsuitable soil topography and/or landscape position (Rule .1940) x_ Unsuitable soil characteristics (structure or clay mineralogy), (Rule .1941) Unsuitable soil wetness condition (Rule .1942) Unsuitable soil depth (Rule .1943) Presence of restrictive horizon (Rule .1944) Insufficient space for septic system and repair area (Rule .1945) Unsuitable for meeting required setbacks (Rule .1950) Other (Rule .1946) These severe soil or site limitations could cause premature system failure, leading to the discharge of untreated sewage on the ground surface, into surface waters, directly to ground water or inside your structure. The site evaluation included consideration of possible site modifications, and modified, innovative or alternative systems. However, the Health Department has determined that none of the above options will overcome the severe conditions on this site. A possible option might be a system designed to dispose of sewage to another area of suitable soil or off site to additional property. Dorothy Cileriti, MSW, MPH HEALTH DIRECTOR For the reasons set out above, the property is currently classified UNSUITABLE, and no improvement permit shall be issued for this site in accordance with Rule .1948(c). However, the site classified as UNSUITABLE may be classified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE if written documentation is provided that meets the requirements of Rule .1948(d). A copy of this rule is enclosed. You may hire a consultant to assist you if you wish to try to develop a plan under which your site could be reclassified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE. You have a right to an informal review of this decision. You may request an informal review by the soil scientist or environmental health supervisor at the local health department. You may also request an informal review by the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources regional soil specialist. A request for informal review must be made in writing to the local health department. You also have a right to a formal appeal of this decision. To pursue a formal appeal, you must file a petition for a contested case hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. To get a copy of a petition form, you may write the Office of Administrative Hearings or call the office at (919) 733-0926 or from the OAH web site at www.oah.state.nc.us/form.htm. The petition for a contested case hearing must be filed in accordance with the provision of North Carolina General Statutes 130A-24 and 150B-23 and all other applicable provisions of Chapter 150B. N.C. General Statute 130A-335 (g) provides that your hearing would be held in the county where your property is located. Please note: If you wish to pursue a formal appeal, you must file the petition form with the Office of Administrative Hearings WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE OF THIS LETTER The date of this letter is November 17, 2003. Meeting the 30-day deadline is critical to your right to a formal appeal. Beginning a formal appeal within 30 days will not interfere with any informal review that you might request.
