Beck Property Request for General Permit
This property is located near the town of Hayesville,NC off Compass Creek Drive in Clay
County. Their existing septic system has failed, and they are looking for solutions to their timely
problem. The existing house cannot acquire public sewer. The land on all sides is not available
for lack of space. The soil has been"turned down"by the Health Department for any repairs and
has requested the Owner to pursue a Direct Discharge Permit. The Owner is requesting a
General Permit(NCG550000)and"Authorization to Construct" for a direct discharge system.
The Watershed classification for Compass Creek is Class"C, Tr".
If I can be of any further service,please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,

Project Summaryfor:
Beck Residential Direct Discharge
51 Compass Creek Drive
Clay County, N.C.
The project is located at 51 Compass Creek Drive, close to the town of Hayesville, NC. in
Clay County. It is an existing 8-bedroom building (1982) with an existing septic tank and
leaking (overwhelmed) disposal system. This lot is surrounded by homes in a residential
area. The existing disposal system was originally permitted in 1982. According to the Clay
County Health Department Permit and verified in the field, the existing disposal consists
of a gravel type drain field on the side of the house with three lines at 30' long by 15'wide.
This system seems to be suitable for a 3-bedroom house, but the house was built with 8-
bedrooms (no one can explain how this happened). The house was sold to Mr. Beck and
he is fixing the place up, and renovating the property. Mr. Beck went to the Health
Department to have them upgrade the permit to match the number of bedrooms. The
Health Department made a soil's evaluation and turned down the nearby soils for a
subsurface repair system due to lack of space. The Health Department then recommended
investigating a direct discharge permit. The Health Department report is included in this
application. The proposed discharge point is on the property— so no easements will be
required. This is shown on the plan.
A direct discharge system for the wastewater effluent was proposed because of the lack of
adequate available soils either on or nearby. The Watershed Classification for this area is
"C-Tr", as a tributary of the Tusquitee Creek watershed. The watershed is 3.17 sq.mi. and
has been submitted to the USGS. The system will consist of adding a new Aqua-Safe
PreTreat unit, and an Ultraviolet disinfection unit outside the Aqua-Safe unit to sterilize
the effluent before it is discharged into the creek. The system will operate by gravity.
There is no need for a pump.
The TS II treatment will be facilitated by a new Aqua-Safe Model AS 1100L EZ TOP unit
with an Ultraviolet disinfection unit as the last step to sterilize the effluent before it is
discharged into the creek. The Aqua-Safe Treatment system has the Onsite Water
Protection Section Approval numbers RWTS-83 & 87 and can be supplied in fiberglass.
The proposed system will be designed for a total flow of 1100 gallons per day. This Aqua-
General Page 6

Safe facility typically treats residential effluent to close to single digits so acquiring the
States requirements of 20, 20, 20 should be easily facilitated. The AquaSafe unit is at the
house with a grade change of about 10' to the discharge location at the creek so a pump
should not be necessary. The system will be able to function by gravity. A 4" Sch.40 PVC
Discharge Line with a few cleanouts (for directional changes) are proposed to assist with
alignment, cleaning, and maintenance. The head losses of the effluent passing through the
UV light are very minor (negligible) as it works with gravity flow. Should the UV light
fail to operate, a voltage signal is sent to the control panel and an alarm is sounded.
The system utilizes an Aqua-Safe Control Panel that has been designed to work for these
units. The panel is housed within a NEMA 4X enclosure that is setup for the agitator and
internal monitoring of the system. The processor constantly evaluates the water usage and
meters out the effluent discharge to the disposal area at the appropriate interval to assure
proper effluent treatment.
The major system components (AquaSafe & pump tank, chambers, etc.) have been
reviewed and approved for this application by the State of North Carolina, and many
systems of this type have already been installed and certified. The system shall be installed
by a certified contractor, and the entire system shall be certified as complete and
operational by Lash Engineering, Inc. The wastewater system must be inspected twice a
year to check for leaks, make sure the control panel and the alarms are working, run the
system through a manual cycle, and verify valves and filters are working properly. The
system should be checked thoroughly for leaks, ponding, or erosion, which could indicate.
The Engineer has provided the Owner a Check Sheet for evaluating the system on a
monthly basis. Any issues should be brought to the attention of the Operator.
Certification & Final:
Lash Engineering, Inc. in conjunction wi
th Tim Barbee (operator), and the installer will
provide a final certification packet including a letter stating that the system was installed
properly, and that all connections and programming have been checked. If significant
changes have occurred during the construction process, then a final "As-Built" drawing
showing those changes made due to site-specific conditions will be supplied to the Owner
along with the Certification.
Please contact Lash Engineering, Inc. if you have any questions or concerns at
704-847-3031.

Facility Name: Wastewater Facility for Beck
Residence for Non-Municipal Applicant
51 Compass Creek Dr., Hayesville,NC.
Clay County
Alternative B; Public Sewer Extension
Dustin Beal from Clay County was contacted for the availability of sewer for this property.
Dustin points out that the nearest sewer is currently very far from the site and located within
the Town of Hayesville. A map was provided that shows the approximate locations for the
proposed Public Sewer. The distance to acquire this proposed public sewer is approximately 7
miles away.
Approximate cost for sewer main:
36,960'/8" gravity sewer laid adjacent to the existing road @ $140.00/ft. for pipe, manholes,
surveying and installation » $5,174,000. The City could require the extension to go past the
property to the end of the road,which is required for developments but for this example we will
assume that it stops at the house. In addition to the cost of installation,the costs of maintaining a
36,960 ft. of 8"main with 40 manholes over a 30-year period could potentially be devastating.
So,the sewer main would need to be turned over to the City for ownership and maintenance.
Tap fees» $800.00; Connection fee» $1,000.00
Total Approximate Cost for installation» $5,175,800
The Present Cost Analysis is included:
Present Value Cost Analysis:
PV = Co+ C[(1+r)n-1 /r(1+r)"]
PV=Present Value of Costs
Co=Costs occurred in Present Year. $5,175,800(installation costs)
C=reoccurring costs The City would take over maintenance costs. $0.00
Yearly Sewer Bill @$50/mth=> 12 x 50= $600.00
Total outlay of funds per yr.= $600.00
EAA Page 3

t=time in years. (t=0 is the first year)
n=Ending year of the Facility(use 20 years)
r=current EPA discount rate(this value could be determined by the website provided or
Google search)therefore,we used the value from the example of 5.625%
PV=$5,175,800+$600.00[(1+0.05625)20-1 /0.05625(1+0.05625)20]
PV=$5,175,800+600.00[1.9877/0.1889]
PV=$5,175,800+$600.00[10.520]
PV=S5,182,112
Conclusion:
Because the existing sewer is far away from the house the costs are cost prohibitive for a single
homeowner. Extending these costs over a 30-year period and the costs of providing sewer to a
single residence is cost prohibitive.

Facility Name: Wastewater Facility for Beck Residence

51 Compass Creek Dr.,Hayesville,NC.
Clay County
Alternative B; Land Applications- Subsurface
The land around the site is occupied by existing owners. The properties with homes were
built in the 2000's and have no available land with good soils for repair. According to
the Clay County Health Department,the Beck household has insufficient space for a
proper repair area, and low-quality soils. Each of the adjacent homeowners have their
own existing sewer systems. There is no other available land onsite for subsurface (or
surface drip).
There are no golf course type businesses that could use a treated effluent for irrigation or
something similar.
Unfortunately none of the Soil onsite or nearby is available.
However, should land become available,the following would apply:
Similar land in this area is being sold for approximately $50,000 per acre. Access to the
property would need to be by current road rights-of-way. The closest land to the lot is
approximately 580' away. Per aerial photography an area of land up Compass Creek Dr.
and upslope was at a reasonable slope for a disposal area.
The same wastewater treatment system would be utilized at the house with the same
design for collection and treatment. The effluent from the treatment process would then
need to be pumped to the available site approximately 580 feet away.
The existing soils on the property (three)and adjacent land according to the U.S.Dept of
Agriculture and the associated Soils Maps, consist of Ud(Loamy Udorthents). This soil
map unit has good permeability and depth,but unfortunately does not provide a large
enough space for a wastewater system on the property. Another soil nearby is a RsA
EAA Page 5

(Rosman Sandy Loam), 1 to 2%slopes. This soil type also has good permeability and
depth,but is only on a small portion of the property. The final soil type is classified as
DgB (Dellwood gravelly loam), 5% slopes.This soil is moderately drained,and is
occasionally susceptible to flooding.
Overall,these soil types can be considered Class III,allowing us to use an assumed
LTAR of".5". Therefore,using an LTAR of"0.50", the 1000 gpd disposal requirement
would require 1000/.5 =2,000 sf. of disposal area. Also,need an equivalent Repair Area
=>2,000 x 2=4,000 sf or 0.1 acres. Utilizing setbacks and required land geometry to
install the drip tubing on contour the required land for disposal would be approximately
0.23 acres.
Additional Costs for such a system above what would be required for the Direct
Discharge are summarized below:
Additional Equipment at House(over what is required for the Direct Discharge):
Pump Tank= 1,750-gal tank(for a couple days storage)
1,750g tank+pump, floats,control panel, etc. _ $15,000
Distribution System:
1. 2"Force Main to get effluent to disposal site which would be offsite.
Using 580 feet of 2"PVC Force Main @ $35/ft= $20,300
Disposal/Nitrification Field would utilize a drip system disposal and an associated
Headworks unit.
Headworks Unit @ $2,500 each plus$1,500 in appurtenances= $16,500
2,000sf of area would require 1,000 ft. of drip tubing @ $3.20/ft= $ 3,200
Land Acquisition:
0.25 acres of land @$50,000/ac= $12,500
Access Road=200' @ $150/ft. _ $30,000
Total Rough Costs for initial installation=> $97,500
Present Value Cost Analysis:
PV = Co + C[(1+r)n-1 / r(1+r)nJ
PV=Present Value of Costs
Co=Costs occurred in Present Year. $162,340(installation costs)
C=reoccurring annual costs Annual Inspections: $600

Unfortunately,none of the Soil onsite or nearby is available.
However, should land become available,the following would apply:
Typical reasons for utilizing a surface system are when a subsurface solution is not
available. These would include but not be limited to a high seasonal water table, less
than 18" of permeable earth,or the residual material is full of clays or impermeable
material.
Similar land in this area is being sold for approximately $50,000 per acre. Access to the

approximately 580' away. Per aerial photography an area of land up Compass Creek Dr.
and upslope was at a reasonable slope for a disposal area.
The same wastewater treatment system would be utilized at the house with the same
design for collection and treatment. A pump tank would have to be added or a Septitech
type treatment system utilized that had a pump tank built into the system. The effluent
EAA Page 9

from the treatment process would then need to be pumped to the available site
approximately 580 feet away.
The existing soils on the property (three)and adjacent land according to the U.S. Dept of
Agriculture and the associated Soils Maps, consist of Ud(Loamy Udorthents).This soil
map unit has good permeability and depth,but unfortunately does not provide a large
enough space for a wastewater system on the property. Another soil nearby is a RsA
(Rosman Sandy Loam), 1 to 2%slopes. This soil type also has good permeability and
depth, but is only on a small portion of the property. The final soil type is classified as
DgB (Dellwood gravelly loam), 5%slopes. This soil is moderately drained, and is
occasionally susceptible to flooding.
Overall,these soil types can be considered Class III, allowing us to use an assumed
LTAR of".5". Therefore,using an LTAR of"0.50",the 1000 gpd disposal requirement
would require 1000/.5 =2,000 sf. of disposal area. Also,need an equivalent Repair Area
=>2,000 x 2=4,000 sf or 0.1 acres. Utilizing setbacks and required land geometry to
install the drip tubing on contour the required land for disposal would be approximately
half an acre.
Additional Costs for such a system -above what would be required for the Direct
Discharge are summarized below:
It would be an advantage to minimize the amount of land that would need to be acquired.
Surface Drip and Spray require wide setbacks to protect the adjacent property owners.
Spray systems require the most of the two. The drip option would be utilized to
minimize the amount of land required for a surface system.
Land requirements for surface systems are sized based upon the use of a water balance.
Such a system calculates on an imaginary acre of land an estimation of the amount of
rainfall (input into the soil)and an associated amount of output being evaporation,plant
uptake and soil permeability. The difference between the two {outputs—the input
(assuming a positive number)) is the amount of effluent that the acre parcel of land can
receive. An assumption for the results of a water balance will be to choose a value that is
appropriate for the DgB Soil Type,which is a type of soil with a high seasonal water
table, so the value is not a minimum but a midrange value. The amount of effluent from
the project is 1000 gpd.
The amount of area required is approximately:
1000 gals 365 days 12 in. 1 cf 1 yr. = 14,281 sf.
day yr. ft. 7.48-gals 41 in.
Tubing requirement for area is: 14,281 sf./(50 /12 )spacing=3,427 feet of driptubing
g
This amount of drip tubing would require the standard residential Headworks unit. A
Repair area for a surface drip system is not required. The 14,281 sf of space is the
useable size for the disposal. Assuming a square, it would equate to a 120' x 120' area.
EAA Page 10

Applying the required 50' setbacks to property lines and needing a 25' work area on one
side equates to an area approximately 220' x 245' or 1.24 acres.
The system would need to be treated to TS II standards and further treated with chlorine
or UV Light for pathogens.
Additional Costs for such a system above what would be required for the Direct
Discharge are summarized below:
Additional Equipment at House:
Pump Tank=4,000-gal tank(surface drip requires storage)

Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA)
Facility Name: Wastewater Facility for Beck Residence
for Non-Municipal Applicant
51 Compass Creek Dr., Hayesville,NC.
Clay County
Alternative C; Wastewater Reuse
The land around the site is developed and/or occupied by existing owners. Each of the
adjacent owners have their own existing sewer systems.
Water Reuse is a wonderful way of utilizing a resource that otherwise would be
discarded. Unfortunately,there are just a few ways that treated wastewater effluent can
be used as a reusable resource. Common avenues of reusable options would include
irrigating with the effluent at a plant nursery, a golf course, landscaping or even a county
park. Another avenue of reuse could involve the residential property itself. The effluent
could be used as grey water for flushing toilets within the house which would not
eliminate the effluent, but it would significantly reduce the amount of water used by the
home.
In a practical way however,the proposed house will have its plumbing built into the
house. Therefore,the use of the effluent as grey water is not an option. There are also no
nurseries or golf courses available for use. The proposed house does have landscaping
areas,but the underlying soils are not suitable for any type of permeability.
However, should an area become available within proximity (within 1 mile)then the
option could become available, and the following would apply for a Water Reuse Option:
The same treatment system could be utilized for the reuse option. A pump tank would
have to be added or a Septitech type treatment system utilized that had a pump tank built
into the system. The effluent from the treatment process could be pumped to the facility
that will utilize the treated effluent.
EAA Page 13

The amount of effluent from the house is 960 gpd. A facility that could utilize this
amount of effluent on a daily basis would need to be able to utilize the extra
effluent/water on a daily basis and would probably be currently supplied by a water well
system or metered water from the City. The effluent from the house would supplement
their usage but probably not replace it and there would only be certain aspects of their
water demand where a treated effluent could be utilized. This report will assume that
such a facility exists as a golf course as that is the simplest and most inexpensive way of
reuse. The effluent will be used to supplement their sprinkler/irrigation system for their
greens and fairways.
Some golf course facilities have an onsite pond that is fed by rainfall but is also water
well subsidized as needed. Their irrigation system is fed by pumping from this pond on
almost a daily basis. Metered water from the City would be expensive to use for
irrigation. The house effluent would need to be treated to at least TS II standards and
further treated with an ultraviolet light for pathogen protection. Once treated the effluent
would need to be pumped through a 2" force main to the holding pond of the golf course
facility so that it could supplement the golf course facility. The golf course would
probably be located near an onsite pond(utilizing the golf course pond landscapes)and
be within 1 mile of the house. The force main will need to be installed through some
property but predominantly adjacent to existing highways within the City/State Right-of-
Ways and be installed according to DOT Standards.
Costs for such a system are summarized below:
Additional Equipment at House:
Pump Tank=4,000-gal tank(needs required storage)
4,000g tank+pump, floats,control panel,etc. = $8,000
Additional Pumps, Valving, etc. for Reuse Rules= $15,000
UV Light&Control Panel, Gauges,etc.= $8,000
Distribution System:
1. 2"Force Main to get effluent to disposal site which would be offsite.

2. Asphalt Repair(3,000'x 4')_> 12,000sf. of asphalt paving @$10/sf= $120,000

Re: Application for Improvement Permit for an on-site wastewater system located at above
referenced property address.
Dear Mr.Beck,
The Clay County Health Department,Environmental Health Division on October 28,2021 evaluated
the above referenced property at the site designated on the site plan that accompanied your
improvement permit application. According to the application the site is to serve an 8 bedroom
home with a design flow of 960 gallons per day.The evaluation was done in accordance with the
laws and rules governing wastewater systems in NC General Statute 130A-333 including related
statutes and Title 15A,Subchapter 18A,of the NC Administrative Code,Rule.1900 and related
rules.
Based on the criteria set out in Title 15A,Subchapter 18A,of the NC Administrative Code,Rule
.1940 through.1948,the evaluation indicated that the site is UNSUITABLE for a sanitary system of
sewage treatment and disposal.Therefore,we must deny your request for an improvement permit.
The site is unsuitable based on the following:
Insufficient space for septic system and repair area(Rule.1945)
Unsuitable for meeting required setbacks(Rule.1950)
These severe soil and 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,as well as use of 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.
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).
Note that a 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 may also explore under GS 130A-336.1,(Engineer Option Permit) GA 130A-336.2 (Alternative
Wastewater System Approvals for Nonengineered Systems)and SL 2020-97 (LSS Permitting During

Summary for Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA)
Facility Name: Wastewater Facility for Richard Beck
for Non-Municipal Applicant
51 Compass Creek Dr., Hayesville,
NC. Clay County
This project is located at 51 Compass Creek Dr. near the City of Hayesville in Clay County. This
is an existing commercial building originally built in 1982. The County and Regional office has
investigated the property and surrounding areas. This house has an original "Block"septic tank
with a disposal which has failed and is seeking a Direct Discharge Permit.
The EAA is used to provide guidance to the regulating community for the evaluation of the
proposed wastewater disposal alternatives. This report is focused on summarizing the Steps
which are written in reports more detailed format as separate sections of the application.
The EAA is divided into several steps:
STEP 1:
1. Zero Flow Stream Restrictions.
The treated effluent would be discharged into a creek with positive flow. Based upon in-field
analysis, review of drainage basin, and past projects, we expect the USGS report to have 7Q10
and 7Q30 approvable results. Mr. Weaver has been sent a package for his official review.
2. Stream Classification for the Receiving Waters.
This information was received and verified through the USGS office. The information is
more detailed presented in the Watershed Classification Report of this application. The
following is a summary information from the USGS:
The outfall discharge is to Compass Creek. The surface water classification for this area is "C
Tr"within the Hiwassee River Basin.
3. Basin wide Water Quality Plans:
There does not appear to be any limitations on the Hiwassee River Basin that would limit the
residential wastewater discharges.
4. Impaired Waters and TMDL's
There were currently no TMDL projects listed for this part of the Hiwassee River Basin.
EAA Page 20

5. Presence of Endangered Species.
The project was submitted to the following:
Rodney Butler
Conservation Data Manager
NC Natural Heritage Program
Division of Land and Water Stewardship
North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources
A response letter from the Heritage Foundation is included in this application. The findings are
summarized below:
"there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or
conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary."
STEP 2:
1. Reasonable Projections for Population&Flow
The Project is an existing house. After accounting for 8 bedrooms, a design flow of 960 gpd was
decided upon. This design flow was calculated with 120 gpd per bedroom x 8 bedrooms for 960
gpd. This design flow was used in the analysis and in conformance with 15A NCAC 2H.0219(1).
STEP 3:
Evaluate technologically feasible alternatives:
See individual Reports for Alternatives. Summary in Tabular Form is included below:

USGS response to DWR USGS Low Flows request # 2021-113 (dated 2021/03/17) for
Cane Branch Yancey County...RE: [EXTERNAL] Low-flow request approval
Weaver, John C <[e-mail]>
Thu 3/18/2021 5:25 PM
To: Michael Lash <[e-mail]>
Cc: Hill, David A <[e-mail]>;[e-mail] <[e-mail]>;Montebello,
Michael 1 <[e-mail]>;Albertin, Klaus P <[e-mail]>;Weaver,John C
<[e-mail]>
Mr. Lash,
In response to your inquiry about the low-flow characteristics for a location on Cane Branch adjacent to Cane
Branch Road (SecondaryRoad 1146) in the vicinityof Micaville in east central YanceyCounty,the following
information is provided:
A check of the low-flow files here at the USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center(Raleigh office)
does not indicate a previous low-flow determination for the point of interest, identified by the
lat/long coordinates (35.89221, -82.23696) provided via email dated 03/17/2021 from the DWR
USGS Low Flow portal following your request submission.
No USGS discharge records are likewise known to exist for the point of interest.
In the absence of site-specific discharge records sufficient for a low-flow analysis, estimates of low-
flow characteristics at ungaged locations are determined by assessing a range in the low-flow yields
(expressed as flow per square mile drainage area, or cfsm) at nearby sites where estimates have been
determined.
A basin delineation completed using the online USGS StreamStats application for North Carolina
(https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/) indicates the drainage area for the point of interest (StreamStats
adjusted coordinates 35.89222, -82.23689 NAD83) is 0.57 sqmi.
For streams in Yancey County,low-flow characteristics published by the USGS are provided in the following
reports:
(1)The first is a statewide report completed in the early 1990's. It is USGS Water-Supply Paper 2403, "Low-
flow characteristics of streams in North Carolina" (Giese and Mason, 1993). An online version of the report is
available at https://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/2403/report.pdf. The report provides the low-flow characteristics
(based on data through 1988)via regional relations and at-site values for sites with drainage basins between 1
and 400 sqmi and not considered or known to be affected by regulation and/or diversions.
(2)The second is a statewide report published in March 2015. It is USGS Scientific Investigations Report
2015-5001, "Low-flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for selected USGS continuous-record
streamgaging stations in North Carolina through 2012" (Weaver, 2015). The report is available online at
hops://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2015/5001/. The report provides updated low-flow characteristics and flow-
duration statistics for 266 active (as of 2012 water year)and discontinued streamgages across the state where
a minimum of 10 climatic years discharge records were available for flow analyses.
Low-flow characteristics estimated for point of interest:

Inspection of the reports indicates the presence of eight(8) nearby selected USGS partial-record sites(5)and
continuous-record streamgages(3) in the general vicinity of the point of interest where low-flow
characteristics were published. Among these 8 index sites,the low-flow discharge yields for the indicated flow
statistics are as follows:
Annual 7Q10 low-flow yields=_>from 0.23 to 0.52 cfsm (average about 0.36 cfsm, median about 0.33 cfsm)
Annual 30Q2 low-flow yields==>from 0.45 to 1 cfsm (average about 0.73 cfsm, median about 0.76 cfsm)
Winter 7Q10 low-flow yields==>from 0.29 to 0.7 cfsm (average about 0.5 cfsm, median about 0.52 cfsm)
Annual 7Q2 low-flow yields==>from 0.36 to 0.78 cfsm (average about 0.58 cfsm, median about 0.6 cfsm)
Average annual discharge yields==>from 1.8 to 3.4 cfsm (both average and median about 2.6 cfsm)
for
Application of the above range in yieldsthe to the drainage area (0.57 sqmi) t e point of interest results in the
following estimated low-flow discharges:
Annual 7Q10 low-flow discharges==>from 0.13 to 0.3 cfs (average about 0.21 cfs, median about 0.19 cfs)
Annual 30Q2 low-flow discharges==>from 0.26 to 0.57 cfs(average about 0.42 cfs, median about 0.43 cfs)
Winter 7Q10 low-flow discharges==>from 0.17 to 0.4 cfs (average about 0.29 cfs, median about 0.3 cfs)
Annual 7Q2 low-flow discharges==>from 0.21 to 0.44 cfs (average about 0.33 cfs, median about 0.34 cfs)
Average annual discharge discharges==>from 1 to 1.9 cfs(both average and median about 1.5 cfs)
Please note:
(1)The estimated flows are provided in units of cubic feet per second (cfs).
(2)The low-flow yields provided above are rounded to 2 significant figures. Estimated low-flow discharges less
than 1 cfs are rounded to 2 significant figures. If between 1 and 100 cfs,then rounded to 1 decimal place; if
greater than 100,then rounded to the nearest whole number(zero decimal places).
(3)The information provided in this message is based on a preliminary assessment and considered
provisional,subject to revision pending collection of future data and further analyses.
These provisional streamflow statistics are provided via the DWR USGS Low Flows cooperative agreement
between the USGS and the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality, Division of Water Resources.
Hope this information is helpful.
Thank you.

RE: Beck Wastewater Direct Discharge
Dear Michael Lash:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide
information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
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-mile
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:
httos://www.fws.gov/offices/Di rectory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37.
Please 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, Land and Water Fund
easement, or an occurrence of a Federally-listed species is documented near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance,
please contact Rodney A. Butler at [e-mail] or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program

I. INTRODUCTION
Ecological Tanks,Inc.was founded in 1994 by people with combined experience in installation,
pre-casting and the building industry. At Ecological Tanks, Inc. our main goal is to provide
products to professionals engaging in the business of distributing, installing and servicing home
wastewater treatment plants. To continue our service,we have dedicated ourselves to manufacturing
versatile products to simplify the task of installation and maintenance. This will include all-in-one
aerobic systems,the first one box control for the operation of pumps and compressors, unique up-
size controls and other products that are first in the on-site sewage industry. With this unique
diversity and know how, we can provide the help you need with your on-site sewage treatment
business.
Ecological Tanks,Inc.Model AS500,and larger,wastewater treatment plants have been tested by
Baylor University Department of Environmental Studies according to requirements listed in
NSF/ANSI Standard 40 and meets or exceeds Class 1 plant characteristic requirements.
Some states require the use of a trash trap independent of this test. Ecological Tanks, Inc.
recommends strongly the use of a trash trap or pre-treatment tank, especially in all cases where a
garbage disposal is being used or may be used. Additionally, Ecological Tanks, Inc. strongly
recommends the use of a trash trap when using sprinklers, drip systems, or pressure dosing as a
means of effluent disposal. A minimum recommended size for a trash trap is one-half the daily rated
capacity of the unit. This recommendation enables enough capacity to store non-biodegradable
materials over an extended period of time (several years)to minimize pumping requirements and
overall maintenance on sprinkler,drip and dosing effluent disposal systems. This size is also small
enough not tQ interfere substantially with the aerobic performance of the unit or to raise cost
excessively. For purposes of the unit certification,a trash trap is treated as an approved upgrade.
II. AQUA SAFE®WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT PROCESS
DESCRIPTION
Aqua Safe® series models of wastewater treatment plants are made with an outer mixing
compartment and a center settling or clarifier compartment. They are in many ways similar to large
township or municipality sewage treatment plants. They employ an extended aeration, activated
sludge process. This type of treatment depends primarily upon the use of air that is introduced by air
passing from the aerator compressor to four air lines located around the perimeter of the aeration
mixing compartment. As wastewater enters the aeration mixing compartment simple hydraulic
displacement is accomplished by the introduction of air which promotes the growth of aerobic
organisms in much larger quantities than would occur naturally. These bacteria break down the
organic solids in the wastewater. From the aeration mixing compartment,mixed liquid enters the
cone shaped settling or clarifier compartment from the bottom. No mixing occurs in this quiet zone
where solids separate from the liquid and settle to the bottom of the clarifier and re-enter the mixing
compartment. The liquid that separates from the solids in the clarifier continue to flow upward to
the discharge pipe.
The Aqua Safe® models AS500, AS500EZ, AS600, AS600EZ, AS750, AS750EZ, AS1000,
AS1000EZ,AS1500 and AS1500EZ(Figures 1 -3)are round tank configurations comprised of an
aeration mixing compartment and a center clarifier compartment.
The Aqua Safe® models AS500-3 Duo and AS600-3 Duo (Figure 4) are a fiberglass round tank
configuration comprised of an aeration mixing compartment, a center settling or clarifier
O&M Page 10

compartment and a 300 gallon attached pump tank with optional chlorination device and effluent
filter. Wastewater first enters the aeration mixing zone. The mixed liquid next enters the clarifier
compartment and continues to flow upwards to the discharge pipe. From the plant's discharge pipe,
the final effluent passes through a chlorination device and the pump tank effluent filter into the
pump tank compartment for storage and chlorine contact mixing. The treated and disinfected
effluent is then safely discharged,via an application pump,to a surface spray,overland flow or other
disposal area.
The Aqua Safe® models AS500CU and AS600CU (Figure 5) are fiberglass round tank
configurations comprised of an aeration mixing compartment and a center clarifier compartment.
Additionally,they both have an attached 68 gallon chlorine contact tank with a chlorination device.
The Aqua Safe® model AS500-P5CU (Figure 6) is a four compartment fiberglass tank
configuration. It is comprised of a forward 500 gallon pre-treatment tank,an aeration mixing zone,a
settling or clarifier compartment and a 68 gallon chlorine contact tank with a chlorination device.
Wastewater first enters the pre-treatment tank compartment of the plant,then gravity flows through a
4" SDR 35 PVC inlet to the aeration mixing zone. The mixed liquid next enters the clarifier
compartment and continues to flow upward to the discharge pipe. From the plant's discharge pipe,
the final effluent passes through a chlorination device into the chlorine contact tank. The treated and
disinfected effluent is then safely discharged in the disposal area.
The Aqua Safe® model AS500 + 5 Duo (Figure 7) is a three compartment fiberglass tank
configuration. It is comprised of a forward 500 gallon pre-treatment tank,an aeration mixing zone
and a settling or clarifier compartment. Wastewater first enters the pre-treatment tank compartment
of the plant, then gravity flows through a 4" SDR 35 PVC inlet to the aeration mixing zone. The
mixed liquid next enters the clarifier compartment and continues to flow upward to the discharge
pipe.
The Aqua Safe® models AS500 + 5 Trio (Figure 8) and AS500 + 75 Trio (Figure 9) are four
compartment fiberglass tank configurations with a chlorination device. They are comprised of a
forward 500 gallon pre-treatment tank,an aeration mixing zone,a settling or clarifier compartment
and a rear pump tank compartment. Model AS500+5 Trio has a pump tank flow line capacity of
500 gallons and model AS500+75 Trio has 750 gallons. Wastewater first enters the pre-treatment
tank compartment of the plant, then gravity flows through a 4" SDR 35 PVC inlet to the aeration
mixing zone. The mixed liquid next enters the clarifier compartment and continues to flow upward
to the discharge pipe. From the plant's discharge pipe, the final effluent passes through a
chlorination device into the pump tank compartment for storage and contact mixing. The treated and
disinfected effluent is then safely discharged,via an application pump,to a surface spray,subsurface
drip, low pressure dose, absorptive mound or other disposal area.
The Aqua Safe® model AS500+5 Pre (Figure 10) is a three compartment concrete tank
configuration. It is comprised of a forward 500 gallon pre-treatment tank,an aeration mixing zone
and a settling or clarifier compartment. Wastewater first enters the pre-treatment tank compartment
of the plant,then gravity flows through a 4" SDR 35 PVC inlet to the aeration mixing zone. The
mixed liquid next enters the clarifier compartment and continues to flow upward to the discharge
pipe.
The Aqua Safe®model AS500-4+75(Figure 11)is a four compartment concrete tank configuration
with a chlorination device. It is comprised of a forward 400 gallon pre-treatment tank,an aeration
mixing zone,a settling or clarifier compartment and a rear 750 gallon flow line capacity pump tank
compartment.Wastewater first enters the pre-treatment tank compartment of the plant,then gravity
O&M Page 11

flows through a 4" SDR 35 PVC inlet to the aeration mixing zone. The mixed liquid next enters the
clarifier compartment and continues to flow upward to the discharge pipe. From the plant's
discharge pipe, the final effluent passes through a chlorination device into the pump tank
compartment for storage and contact mixing. The treated and disinfected effluent is then safely
discharged, via an application pump, to a surface spray, subsurface drip, low pressure dose,
absorptive mound or other disposal area.
The results of the Aqua Safe®process are a clear, odorless effluent discharge, which meets and
exceeds state and national water quality standards.

III. AQUA SAFE® RECOMMENDED PLANT INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Inspect entire treatment plant and component parts.
2. Select location of plant site which is accessible to the home sewer discharge line,at least ten(10)
feet from the home foundation, in an area that will not receive vehicular traffic. Prepare an
excavation site by digging a hole at least one (1) foot larger than the treatment plant and a depth
that will allow for sufficient coverage leaving approximately three(3)inches of the inspection port
to extend above normal ground level. The depth of the plant will be controlled by the depth of the
building sewer outlet line plus the amount of proper fall required from the building sewer outlet to
the inlet invert of the plant. The prepared excavation should have a solid, level bottom that will
eliminate plant settling. Additionally,the bottom of the excavated hole should be free of rocks or
sharp objects. Aqua Safe® plants should be installed on a bed of sand on undisturbed soil to
provide a solid flat base.
3.Utilizing lifting lugs provided,carefully place the plant in the excavation. The inlet line should
slope down toward the plant and the outlet line should slope down away from the plant. The plant
should be level to within one (1) inch, edge to edge. Aqua Safe® wastewater treatment plants
should only be connected to properly trapped and vented plumbing systems in compliance with state
and local plumbing codes.
4. Position the inlet and outlet lines and make the necessary connections. Clean-outs should be
installed at building sewer tie-in, any changes in direction of flow and at maximum intervals of
seventy(70)feet when using four(4) inch piping. The inlet line should be inserted and glued into
the inlet elbow and the discharge line should be inserted and glued into the outlet coupling. Open
the inspection port on top of the plant and make sure the discharge tee assembly in level and
centered in the clarifier prior to connecting discharge piping. Fill the tank with water to the point of
flowing discharge before backfilling. Backfill evenly around the plant,up to the bottom of the inlet
and outlet piping,taking care not to damage the tank or dislodge the piping. Backfill material must
be void of rocks, gravel, heavy clay or any type of material which might damage the tank.
5. The aerator compressor must be installed in a well ventilated,relatively clean and dry location.
Install the aerator compressor on the treatment plant's tank top or at a remote location no more than
one hundred(100)feet from the treatment plant. The aerator compressor is supplied complete with
all discharge fittings. Install 3/4"Sch.40 PVC piping(supplied by others)between the aerator and
treatment plant. Be careful not to allow any debris,dirt or mud in the airline during installation.A
minimum of twelve(12)inches ground cover is recommended over the 3/4"Sch.40 PVC air piping.
6. The electrical controls for the aerator compressor, visual and audible alarms for compressor
failure and high water conditions, dose/spray pump and/or timer are contained in a weather proof
enclosure. (See Figures 15-34). It may be installed in any above ground area where the warning
light is visible to the owner during the course of a normal day activities. It is recommended that the
control box be at least six (6) inches above ground level and in view of the aerator compressor
housing. All electrical wiring must comply with applicable standards and shall conform to the
requirements of the most current revision of the National Electrical Code.All electrical components
not supplied must comply with U.L. standards. We recommend that all electrical connections be
made by a licensed electrician.
7. Install electrical wiring(provided by others)to interconnect the aerator compressor and alarms to
O&M Page 19

the electrical control panel. (See Figures 16-33). A minimum of twelve(12)inches of ground cover
is recommended over underground electrical conduit and wiring.
8. If required, install the application pump in the pump tank. (See the Aqua Safe®effluent pump
manual). Most aerobic system designs that include as a method of effluent disposal surface spray,
subsurface drip, or low pressure dosing should include the proper sized pump for the job. If not,
once the pumping conditions are determined,selection of the right pump will be determined by two
factors, pump capacity and total head needed. You must match the pump as closely to your
conditions as possible to get maximum pump efficiency and dependable operation. Install and set
the float switches to the appropriate level to comply with design and state requirements.(See Figures
20&21).
9. Run approved conduit and wiring to the pump tank from the control panel and have a qualified
electrician make wiring connections. (See figures 26-33 and Aqua Safe® pump manual). All
conduit running from the pump tank to control panel must be sealed with conduit sealant to prevent
moisture or gases from entering the panel.
10. The aerator compressors used on Aqua Safe®wastewater treatment plants run continuously.
They provide relatively quiet, energy efficient operation. Once properly connected,the electrical
control box is to be closed. Operate the aerator compressor by placing the on/off electrical circuit
(provided by others) in the ON position.
11. Turn on aerator compressor and check all air piping and fittings for leaks. This can be
accomplished by preparing a saturated solution of soap and water and applying to entire run of pipe
and fittings. If a leak is detected,effect repairs.
12. Carefully backfill all underground lines and the rest of the plant's excavation in a manner which
will not cause damage to the completed installation.
13. The Aqua Safe®plant is ready to receive incoming sewage.
IV. AQUA SAFE PLANT START UP
Initially the Aqua Safe® wastewater treatment plant is filled with clean water, usually from an
owner's water supply. As stated in the installation instructions, once all proper connections have
been completed and it is filled with water and the aerator compressor turned on,the system is now in
operation.For the treatment plant to be biologically stable,it will take from four(4)to twelve(12)
weeks after first using the plant to develop a population growth of microorganisms(bacteria). It is
these bacteria which make the treatment system operate.
V. OWNER MAINTENANCE CARE AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Aqua Safe®home wastewater treatment plants have been designed and built by Ecological Tanks,
Inc.to provide long term,reliable and cost efficient service. Our treatment plants will operate with
a minimum amount of attention.
If service is required, reference the system's DATA PLATES located on the Aqua Safe®control
panel or aerator compressor for the plant's model number,the name,address and phone number of
the local service person that can provide service. The following procedures should be performed on
a routine basis to insure proper plant operation:
O&M Page 20

DAILY:Check warning light and audible alarm located on the plant's control panel for air supply
malfunction or in system high water indication. If an alarm on condition is observed, it is an
indication of malfunction. First check the electrical circuit providing power to the system to insure
the circuit is closed. Check the aerator compressor to be sure it is operating. Check for over
heating,excessive vibrations and unusual noises. If aerator compressor failure is observed,call your
service provider for service. After a power outage,an alarm condition may exist. Should an alarm
remain on for more than thirty (30) minutes after power is restored, you should call your local
service provider to report the alarm.
WEEKLY: Check the treatment plant for offensive odor. If present call for service.
PERIODICALLY:Check and clean the air filter on aerator compressor. Rinse with warm water to
clean if necessary. Make sure filter is dry and re-install on aerator compressor.
RECOMMENDED: Frequency of solids removal is no more often than every two (2)to five (5)
years. Determination of the need for pumping can be made only by a trained service person by
testing the tank contents and/or effluent. The Aqua Safe® wastewater treatment plant should be
pumped when the settled solids are approximately sixty (60) percent of the total volume.
WARNING -Hydraulic displacement and tank flotation may occur whenever tanks are pumped.
Upon completion of pumping,tank must be refilled with water.Additionally,care should be taken
not to damage internal componentparts. A certified Aqua Safe®service technician should oversee
P q
tank pumping.
VI. OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY
It is the owner's responsibility to operate the Aqua Safe®wastewater treatment plant to the best of
their ability. To keep maintenance to a minimum and insure high effluent quality, the following
items should not be permitted to enter the treatment plant:
1. Strong disinfectants or bleaches,other than small amounts used in day to day house cleaning and
laundries. Recommended detergents are low-sudsing, low phosphates and biodegradable.
Recommended cleaning products are non-chlorine, non-toxin, non-corrosive and biodegradable.
Anti-bacteria soaps should be avoided.
2. Backwash discharge from any type of water softeners.
3. Citrus products,coffee grounds,chemical wastes,paint or paint thinners,oils or grease(such as
used cooking grease),pet shampoo,pet dip disinfectant,pesticides,herbicides,automotive fluids or
any other toxins.
4. Disposable diapers, tampons, sanitary napkins, large quantities of paper products, tobacco
products, or similar items. Home brewery waste, strong medicines and antibiotics.
5. Waste material from a garbage disposal is not recommended without the use of a trash trap or
pretreatment tank preceding the Aqua Safe®plant. Food waste represents additional loading the
aerobic treatment unit would have to digest, increasing pump out intervals.
6. The Aqua Safe® wastewater treatment plant is designed for the treatment of domestic
wastewater and nothing else should go into it. During extended periods of intermittent or non-use,
such as vacation time,the aerobic bacteria inside the plant will decrease due to no food in the form
of incoming wastewater. The treatment plant will become biologically stable again soon after the
resumption of normal loading. The aerator compressor should be left on during periods of vacation
O&M Page 21

time. During extended periods of absolute non-use (3 months or longer) the aerator compressor
should be removed,cleaned and stored with the compressor's inlet and outlet sealed. Additionally,
the air line piping should also be capped to prevent debris from entering the air distribution system.
The Aqua Safe®plant will not perform to its fullest capabilities if subject to hydraulic overloading.
This condition exists whenever excessive water, above the plants designed treatment capacity, is
allowed into the plant. Leaking plumbing fixtures or excessive water use may cause this condition.
Hydraulic overload may also occur on wash days, when multiple loads of laundry are washed in
succession.
Ecological Tanks, Inc. is not responsible for the infield operation of our plants. The proper
operation of this wastewater treatment plant depends upon proper organic and hydraulic loading of
the plant. We cannot control the loading of substances in our plants that may upset its biological
balance. We can only provide a complete owner's manual which outlines materials that should be
kept out of the treatment plant. User operation instructions must be followed or warranties are
subject to invalidation.
WARNING! Ants and rodents are destructive to the mechanical and electrical equipment on
wastewater treatment plants. Care should be taken to prevent infestation of ants near the plant.
Damage or destruction of mechanical or electrical equipment by ants or rodents is not covered under
manufacturer's warranty.
Any and all safety requirements such as the electrical wiring, blower operation or plant discharge
concerning the owner,their families,friends,or guests is the sole liability of the owner(see warranty
and service policy).
The electrical control panel contains a schematic for the system. However, the electrical control
panel is sealed and contains no user serviceable parts. Test and alarm silence switches are located
on the outside of control panel.
WARNING! Service to the electrical control panel by a non-qualified person may result in a
electrical shock hazard resulting in serious injury or death. If service is required contact your local
authorized installer representative or maintenance provider.
Many states already require the use of a chlorination unit behind all mechanical treatment plants for
total effluent disinfection prior to fmal discharge. Ecological Tanks,Inc.recommends the use of a
disinfection device behind its mechanical plants for total effluent disinfection prior to final
discharge.
VII. INSTALLER/MAINTENANCE PROVIDER OPERATION, REPAIR AND
TROUBLESHOOTING
Previous sections in this manual have covered the Ecological Tanks,Inc.,Aqua Safe® system's
functions, specifications, design,proper installation procedure, start up, owner care and operation
instructions. If at this point you are not totally familiar with the material already covered, you
should read it again.
Please payparticular attention to the precedingsection titled Owner's Responsibility. This section
P
covers information critical to the plants proper loading and function. You will find that this same
information is listed in the Ecological Tanks,Inc.,Aqua Safe®Owner's Manual. Your assurance
of the owner's receipt of their manual and the explanation of it's contents is most critical to the
O&M Page 22

plant's proper operation.
You will find, in the following sections of this manual, the Initial Service Policy. It covers
information required of you as a maintenance provider in order for you to provide service in
compliance with NSF/ANSI Standard 40. Additionally,most states have added to the requirements
of this policy. You must know and adhere to all other regulatory agency requirements concerning
mechanical plant service/maintenance standards.Ecological Tanks,Inc.,Aqua Safe®wastewater
treatment plants should be inspected every six months for proper operation. Two years of
maintenance is provided as a part of the systems certification requirements. Ongoing maintenance
is usually part of a service agreement maintained between an owner and maintenance provider.
Inspections should include any necessary adjustment of electrical controls and servicing of the
component parts and should include a visual check of hoses, wires, leads, contacts, cleaning of
i
filters, removal of organic particles, and testing of alarms to ensure proper function. An effluent
quality inspection consists of a visual check for color,turbidity,scum overflow,and an examination
for odors. A mixed liquor inspection may be necessary if the plant is not performing properly or if
offensive odors are present. If any improper operation is observed which cannot be corrected at that
time,the user shall be notified in writing immediately. This notification shall advise the owner of
the problem, if it is covered by the warranty, if not,the cost related to correcting the problem and
estimated date for correction of said problem.
VH-1. EXAMPLE OF A ROUTINE MAINTENANCE SERVICE
CALL
First check the system's control panel for any alarm or failure indication. Check the panel to insure
proper incoming power by testing the incoming power supply. If you know power is incoming into
the control panel, check the circuit feeding the control panel. Next, check the aerator simply to
insure that it is running and then go directly to the treatment plant for an effluent quality inspection
as outlined in the service policy section. At this point pay particular attention to odors you notice at
the plant(or pump tank if applicable). You may notice an earthy smell which is nothing more than
carbon dioxide gas emitted by the aerobic bacteria in the plant. There may be a sweet smell or no
smell at all and that's good. Should you experience an obnoxious odor,something is wrong. Access
the aeration mixing compartment,if necessary,to examine the mixed liquid and air diffusion system.
Return to the control panel, check for proper functions as outlined in this manual (See figures 15-
24), note the troubleshooting and repair guidelines covered in the referenced figures. Before
servicing the control panel and alarm system, disconnect power to the control panel.
Clean or replace the aerator compressor air filter at this time. If you experienced an offensive odor
when at the plant and heard little or no bubbling,finding a clogged or extremely dirty air filter may
be the problem. Turn on the aerator at this time and check for any air leak between the aerator and
the 3/4" Sch. 40 PVC piping. If a leak is detected, effect repair. If a leak is not detected, the
following steps should be taken.
Remove the aerator from the rubber hose connection and install a low pressure gauge between the
PVC piping and aerator. Turn on the aerator and note the pressure. If the line pressure is below 1.5
P.S.I.then there is a leak between the aerator and the air distribution system in the treatment plant or
the aerator's diaphragm is ruptured.(See the aerator compressor repair section)Determine the cause
and effect repairs at this time. If a pressure above 3.5 P.S.I. is noted, the air system piping or
diffuser assembly is blocked. You can clear the air distribution system's blockage by charging the
air distribution piping with compressed air(no more than 80 P.S.I.) Re-check the line pressure after
any maintenance procedure to the plant's air distribution piping to insure the correct pressure range.
O&M Page 23

The normal line pressure should be between 1.83 PSI and 2.85 PSI.
The Aqua Safe®aerobic treatment plant was designed and tested with a specific aerator compressor
for each of its plant models (See Figure 35). Use only the specified aerator for each plant model
provided by Ecological Tanks,Inc. in accordance with NSF Standard 40.
If this particular system uses a gravity flow overland discharge,check to insure the discharge pipe or
manifold is open. Should the system employ spray irrigation or some other method of pumped
effluent disposal,you should check that method at this time.
While at the chlorination or pump tank,if applicable,note the condition of the chlorination or other
type of disinfection devise. Make sure that the disinfection devise is designed to insure effluent
contact with the disinfection agent during periods of final effluent flow into the pump tank. Note the
chlorine supply and check to insure that chlorine tablets are not caking inside the chlorinator
resulting in no tablet to effluent contact. Effect necessary repairs if needed.
Continue at the pump tank by checking the condition of the application pump and it's electrical
connections. Note the positions of the pump on,off,override and high water float switches. Make
sure they are properly positioned, operable and secured. Note the condition of the application
pump's inlet screen. Clean or replace as necessary. Check to insure the pump is properly seated in
the pump tank and note the condition of the pump's drop pipe as it extends from the pump discharge
opening to the exit point out of the pump tank. Refer to Troubleshooting Guide found on the back
page of the Aqua Safe® effluent pump manual if application pump problems warrant corrective
action or repair.
Some counties require the use of a spin or disc filter in line between the pump tank and spray
application area. If subsurface drip application is used,you should always have a filter assembly in
line between the pump tank and drip field. Counties that require the use of in-line spin or disc
filters,as well as drip tubing manufactures alike,prescribe the use of the filter size and micron rating
(normally 100 microns). Only approved filters should be used. If spin or disc filters are used they
should be removed and cleaned or replaced and re-installed at this time.
Continue by next checking the condition of the final effluent distribution piping system to include
the surface spray or subsurface drip application area. Be sure that the distribution piping system and
any repairs to the system conform to the applicable rules governing the construction of that system.
Note any ponding or run off from the disposal area;determine the cause if either of these conditions
exist. Probable cause would be either hydraulic overload of system or improperly sized disposal
area. If water is ponding in the disposal area, it may flow back into the pump tank if the in-line
check valve between the pump tank and disposal area is not completely closing after each pump
cycle. Note any non-compliance conditions that may exist in the effluent disposal area and arrange
for corrective measures.
Activate the application pump and check the spray pattern and condition of the spray heads in the
surface application area. Strainer screens if used in the spray heads may require cleaning. Any
irregular spray pattern or damaged spray head must be noted on the reporting record and repaired.
Also note the condition of the vegetation growth in the surface application area. Tall grass,weeds or
bushes should be cut or trimmed.Notify the person responsible for performing that task and insure
that it is done.
If a subsurface drip application field is used,the system should be flushed at each regular service
visit. Systems must be equipped to flush the contents of the lines back to the pretreatment tank when
O&M Page 24

intermittent flushing is used. If continuous flushing is used during the pumping cycle,the contents
of the lines must be returned to the pump tank. Check the atmospheric vents in the drip field to
insure that they will open to vent and are readily accessible for inspection or service.
Recommended procedures for taking effluent samples are outlined in Section VIII of this manual,
titled Effluent Sampling Requirements.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Initial Service Policy,number 3,should you observe any
improper condition affecting the plants proper operation which cannot be readily repaired.
VII-2 AERATOR COMPRESSOR REPAIR
Linear aerator compressors(See Figure 36-38)are used on all models of the Aqua Safe®wastewater
treatment plants. They provide quite energy efficient operation. Additionally, rotary vane
compressors(See Figures 39-42)are provided upon request, in-lieu of linear aerator compressors.
All aerator compressors on all models of the Aqua Safe®aerobic wastewater treatment plants run
continuously.
Periodical aerator compressor maintenance will help you to operate the aerator in the optimum
condition and insure longer aerator life. Air filters should be cleaned every four months and
replaced as necessary. Ecological Tanks,Inc.recommends that the air filters be replaced once a
year. The plant's air distribution piping pressure should be measured at least once per year. Aerator
compressors should be operated at the recommended output pressure range which is between 1.5 and
3.5 P.S.I. Aerator life is shortened if operations outside of the specified pressure ranges occur.
Ecological Tanks, Inc. recommends the diaphragm blocks on linear aerator compressors be
replaced every three years. We also recommend that the vanes be replaced every four years on
rotary vane aerator compressors. Referring to figures 36-42,note the following text for diaphragm
block and vane replacement procedures:
LINEAR COMPRESSOR HEAD AND DIAPHRAGM REPLACEMENT
1. Remove linear blower from electrical power and move to a well lit spot.
2. Remove the top plastic cover and discard the filter element.
3. Turn the blower over and remove(4)screws using either a#2 Phillips screwdriver or a 10 mm

VIII. EFFLUENT SAMPLING REQUIREMENTS
When properly loaded,operated and maintained the Aqua Safe®wastewater treatment plant should
provide an effluent quality consistent with the E.P.A. secondary treatment guideline parameters.
The expected final discharge from the plant should provide an effluent quality of:
less than 25 mg/l. CBOD5
less than 30 mg/1. TSS
pH of 6to9
Test results conducted by Baylor University's Department of Environmental Studies in accordance
with NSF/ANSI Standard 40 requirements showed the Aqua Safe®wastewater treatment plant to
have a 30 day effluent average of:
2.37 mg/1. CBOD5
2.11 mg/I. TSS
Ecological Tanks, Inc. recommends that ALL final effluent samples be taken in the effluent
discharge line or the effluent pump discharge line at a sampling port designed for that purpose,but
always after the chlorine contact tank. We recommend allowing the effluent to flow through the
discharge pipe for a minimum of two (2)minutes before taking the sample.
VIII-1. SAMPLING AND TESTING PROCEDURE FOR BODS OR TSS
1. Effluent grab samples to be analyzed for BODS or TSS should be done by a certified testing lab.
The certified lab should provide you with information concerning proper sample collection to
include volume,storage and labeling of sample. For a fee,most labs will provide the glass or plastic
bottles to be used.
2. Always follow your testing lab's instructions concerning proper sample labeling,collection,and
storage.
For the referenced sample collection in this section,the testing lab's minimum instructions should
be:
A)Label each sample to include:
*Name and physical address of owner
* Time and date of collection
* Desired test
*Name of person collecting sample
B)Collect samples only in clean glass or polyethylene bottle or jar at a volume specified by the
lab.
C) Store samples in a cooler to near freezing temperature as soon as samples are collected.
D)Deliver samples for analysis within six(6)hours of collection.
3. Activate the application pump and collect the sample from the sample port in the pump tank or
from fresh flow in the effluent discharge line after the disinfection devise.
O&M Page 28

VIH-2. TESTING FOR SOLIDS REMOVAL
1. As previously noted in other sections of this manual a sample of mix liquor should be taken from
the aerobic plant's aeration mixing compartment to determine the suspended solids content of the
aeration compartment.
2. Using a clear glass or plastic graduated cylinder,let the sample settle for thirty(30)minutes. If
the settled amount of suspended solids is greater than sixty percent(60%)after thirty(30)minutes,
the aerobic tank should be pumped out.
VIII-3. OTHER TESTING
1. To determine the composition of the aerobic plant's influent wastewater strength,collect a grab
sample from the flow between the pre-treatment tank and aerobic treatment plant.
2. Samples should be taken from fresh flow directly out of the pre-tank's outlet baffle. Refer to
information covered earlier in this section for proper handling of a sample from the job site to a
certified testing lab.
3. Influent grab samples,at a minimum,should be analyzed for BOD5,TSS,COD,and pH. A pH
test can be done on the job site by following the simple instructions with your pH test kit. However,
BOD5, TSS, and COD tests should be conducted by a certified lab.
4. The need to determine the concentration of other influent contaminates may arise. Collect,
handle and test the samples in the same manner as outlined in this section.
5. The typical composition of untreated residential wastewater for the suggested parameters is:
BOD5 180 to 200 mg/1
TSS 180 to 200 mg/1
COD 75 to 150 mg/1
pH 6 to 9

TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE: Power must be on to test horn and alarm light.
Alarm Horn
Pressing the alarm test switch,turning the compressor circuit breaker OFF,or activating the alarm
float should turn on the alarm horn. If the horn does not sound, replace with horn of same type.
Alarm Li2ht
Pressing the alarm test switch, activating the alarm float,or turning the compressor circuit breaker
off should turn on the alarm light. If the light does not activate, replace bulb with the same type.
Circuit Breakers
Check the circuit breaker for proper resistance reading using the following procedure.
1. With power OFF, isolate the circuit breaker by disconnecting the load side wires.
2. Place the ohmmeter leads across the corresponding line and load terminals.
3. With the ohmmeter on the R X 1 scale and the breaker in the OFF position,the reading should
be infinity (very high resistance). With the breaker in the ON position, the reading should be
nearly zero ohms (very low resistance). If the readings are not as stated, replace the circuit
breaker with one of the same ratings.
NOTE: Readings may vary slightly depending on the accuracy of the measuring device.
Air Switch
If lamp and horn are on and pump in pump tank is performing normal:
1. Disconnect air line at fitting at bottom of control panel and feel for air coming out of line.
2. If air supply is normal,then air switch is malfunctioning. Replace switch through manufacturers
stock.
24 Hr. Clock Timer
Clock not running
1. Check for input power to the control panel.
2. Check all terminals for secure connections.
3. Check breaker for on position.
4. If no circuit fault is evident, replace clock. Clock may be obtained through manufacturers
immediate stock.
Pump Test Switch
Switch not working
1. Turn OFF power. Disconnect both leads to the switch.
2. Connect one test lead from an OHM meter set on RX1 to one post on the pump test switch.
3. Connect the other lead from the same OHM meter to the other post of the pump test switch.
4. Pull on the toggle of the pump test switch.
Note: The meter needle should deflect across the entire scale. If the needle does not deflect or
O&M Page 53

reads open,replace the switch with one of the same type and rating.
Test/Mute Switch
Switch not working.
1. Turn OFF power. Disconnect all leads from the test/mute switch.
2. Connect one lead from an OHM meter set on RX1 to the center post on circuit 1.
3. Connect the other lead from the OHM meter to the lower or second post in circuit 1.
A. With the toggle in the off or mute position there should be no deflection of the needle on the
OHM meter.
B.With the toggle in the center position,the needle on the OHM meter should deflect across the
entire scale.
C. By pulling the toggle into the"test"position the needle on the OHM meter should stay in the
full deflection position.
4. Disconnect both leads from the switch
5. Connect one lead from an OHM meter set to RX1 to the center post of circuit 2 on the"test/mute"
switch.
6. Connect the other lead from the same OHM meter to the lower or second,post of circuit 2.
A. With the toggle on the off or mute position there should be no deflection of the needle on the
OHM meter.
B. With the toggle in the center or normal position there should be no deflection of the needle
on the OHM meter.
C. By pulling the toggle into the "test"position, the needle on the OHM meter should deflect
across the entire scale.
NOTE: If results other than those just described are attained,replace the test/mute switch.
Float Controls
Check the floats throughout their entire range of operation. Clean,adjust,or replace damaged floats.
Check the float resistance - The float resistance can be measured to determine if the float is
operating correctly or is defective. Use the following procedure to measure the float resistance:
1. Isolate the float by disconnecting one or both of the float leads from the float terminals.
2. Place one Ohmmeter lead on one of the float wires, and the other ohmmeter lead on the other
float wire.
3. Set the ohmmeter dial to read ohms and place on the RX1 scale. With the float in the OFF
position the scale should read infinity (very high resistance). Replace the float if you do not get
this reading. With the float in the ON position the scale should read nearly zero (very low
resistance). Replace float if you do not get this reading.
NOTE:Readings may vary slightly depending on the length of wire and accuracy of the measuring
device.

The "UV Disin ect o
By Ecological Tanks, Inc.
Installation, Operation and Maintenance
Instructions
System Description:
The UV system disinfects the effluent by exposing it to a powerful ultraviolet
light in a confined space. A flow restrictor ensures that the effluent is exposed to the UV
light for a sufficient period of time to complete the disinfection process. A control panel
is provided that supplies power to the UV system and has an audible/visible alarm that
activates if the bulb fails or the UV current drops below a minimum level. The control
panel is housed in a weatherproof enclosure and has separate circuit breakers for the UV
system and the alarm system. A layout of the system is shown in Figure 1.
Caution: During installation and servicing make sure that power is disconnected from
the system any time the UV bulb is exposed. The majority of the energy emitted by the
bulb is invisible and is powerful enough to burn eyes and skin in a very short exposure
time. Ensure that during installation and service that no fingerprints or oily materials are
left on the bulb. If necessary,the bulb can be cleaned with a soft cotton cloth soaked
with alcohol.
Installation:
Mount the UV unit as close to the pump tank as possible(or inside the pump
tank). It is advisable to remove the UV lamp before installing this unit. The unit shall be
installed in a vertical position. Make sure the inlet connection is level to the outlet side.
(A 1/4" vent hole may be drilled into the inlet 90 for pressure release if tank settling is
expected.) The inlet 4" 90 is not cemented in place to allow for final alignment. After
alignment has been completed cement 4" 90 in place.
The riser shall be at ground level when the unit is completely backfilled. Cut off
the bottom end of the 6"riser making sure not to cut end with electrical penetration.After
cutting end off, glue in place. Do not glue cap. The electrical connector(in the 6 x 4
reducer) should not be flooded.
1 O&M Page 66

Electrical:
Mount the electrical panel provided by manufacturer as close to UV unit as
possible. Pull the open end of the 40 feet direct burial wire through the hole in the side of
the 6"riser(top of UV unit). Do not add more wire to the 40 feet. Bury the wire
underground from the unit to the electrical control panel,cut to length. Connect the two
wires to the terminal strip in the panel.
Connect the power side of the control panel to the 120 VAC source from the
house or main system control panel. Do not turn on the power from the house or main
control panel until the installation and wiring is complete. Make sure all connections are
watertight including the electrical penetration through the 6"riser.
Operation:
The system will operate continuously without intervention other than scheduled
maintenance. If the alarm activates,the homeowner should contact their service
provider.
Maintenance:
When doing maintenance/inspection(every six months)remove cap,unplug and
slowly lift lamp out of the unit by pulling straight up on electrical cord. Carefully wipe
clean the quartz crystal,then gently slide the lamp back into the unit until the top seal on
the lamp is next to the 7/8"hole. Plug lamp back together and replace cap. Every two (2)
years replace the complete lamp. It comes with the quartz crystal and lamp in place. Just
remove as above and replace. When inspecting,check for settlement in bottom of unit
and flush with water hose if necessary.

Re: UV Light Analysis
UV lights of a low flow nature are typically a low-pressure type, short wave, mercury vapor
discharge tube that produces ultraviolet wavelengths lethal to microorganisms. The low pressure
allows the units to run with less power and thereby generating less heat for longer life of the bulbs.
The Aqua-Safe UV"Disinfector(Model TUD)"Light has been specified for this project.
Different microorganisms are extinguished at different doses. The larger"pests"take longer. Fecal
Coliforms are extinguished at near 6600 µWs/cm. This lamp has a range up to 30,000 µWs/cm.
Although there is a wide spectrum of bacteria,viruses and protozoa, most of the"pests" are
extinguished between 2,000 and 20,000. Having a range up to 30,000 µWs/cm, assures that the
germicidal action is most effective across this wide range. For this application, fecal coliforms are
most important,which have a dose requirement of about 6600 µWs/cm. This is well within range.
The Aqua-Safe UV Light has been submitted for review because of its ability to be installed in the
vertical or horizontal position. It clearly has the UV qualifications to be effective. The requirements
for vertical placement are spelled out in the installation guidelines with a warning to ensure the power
head is above the water line. The power unit cannot be submerged. This note has been added to the
plans. This unit is acceptable for use in this application and is accepted for use on this project.
Ecological Tanks, Inc. uses a germicidal preheat bulb that is rated for 10,000 hours of functionality
combined with a ballast that is strong enough for instant startup. In the 1.5 gallon treatment chamber
the UV output is rated at 2,470 mw/sec/sq. cm at 65%transmittance. Calculating a three gallon per
minute free-flow rate (i.e. 30 second exposure time),the UV exposure measures 74,100
microwatt/second doses(30 seconds x 2,470mw/sec on disinfected effluent.After 7,500 hours of
operation UV output may drop 20%. This would indicate doses of 59,280 mw/sec (20%of
2,470mw/sec= 1,976mw/sec x 30 seconds). However,the"UV Disinfector" system contains a flow
restrictor that the UV bulb rests in to ensure a maximum dosage of effluent during peak use times.
The controls current sensor is designed to signal an alarm when the current of the ballast dips below a
nominal operating threshold.

The UV Disinfector (Model TUD)
Bulb Efficiency Information
Ecological Tanks, Inc. uses a germicidal preheat bulb that is rated for 10,000 hours of
functionality combined with a ballast that is strong enough for instant startup. In the 1.5
gallon treatment chamber the UV output is rated at 2,470 mw/sec/sq cm at 65%
transmittance. Calculating a three gallon per minute free-flow rate (i.e. 30 second exposure
time), the UV exposure measures 74,100 microwattlsecond doses (30 seconds x 2,470
mw/sec) on disinfected effluent. After 7,500 hours of operation UV output may drop 20%.
This would indicate doses of 59,280 mw/sec (20% of 2,470mw/sec = 1,976mw/sec x 30
seconds). However, the "UV Disinfector" system contains a flow restrictor that the UV bulb
rests in to ensure a maximum dosage of effluent during peak use times. The controls current
sensor is designed to signal an alarm when the current of the ballast dips below a nominal
operating threshold.
