' 9,360 GPD Conventional LLP Treatment System
B laden County
DEH 98-21-R/GW00156
(Steven Berkowitz: DEH SERG.'Review Engineer)
-: The Groundwater Section is in receipt of the subject application to install a
conventional wastewater treatment system to treat the domestic wastewater stream
created by an existing 30-unit apartment•complex. This project was previously reviewed
:•. in November of 1998 under DEH 98-21/GW98126 and a new site had to be found
" because of legal constraints.
Although the system is designed to handle a wastewater loading of 9,360 gallons
per day, the.water bills for this apartment complex have indicated an average usage of
'- approximately 4,650 gallons per day. The system design includes a septic tank and
r; approximately 3,114 linear feet of distribution line (see Figures 1, 2, and 3). A soils
%� •1� .; 1
:.......:'�.::� scientist evaluated the suitability of the site, and a number of field tests were performed
-- _ :�� .•.� to ascertain the elevation of the seasonal high water table and the
E permeability of the subsoils. The seasonal high water table was found to be
M- approximately five feet below the surface of the proposed diainfield area .The
permeability of the shallow subsoil was measured with a permeameter, and the
permeability of the deeper saturated soil was measured by performing slug tests. The
permeameter tests and slug tests indicated that the permeability of both the saturated and
unsaturated zones was high, and the transmissivity of the saturated zone under seasonal
high water table conditions was conservatively estimated to be approximately 390 feet
squared per'day.
The soil scientist used the Colorado State University Mounding Model to
�=1k estimate the mounding which could be expected to take place beneath the drainfield
under maximum design flow conditions. The modeling indicated that a maxi MU
mound height of approximately 1.6 vertical feet could be expected beneath the cen
G GC�ION

the drainfield_ after a full year of continuous loading at the design rate of 9,360'gallons per day. The
system was also modeled by the Groundwater Section using a similar modeling program and a
drainfield configuration that more closely matched the design specifications. The modeling
performed by the Groundwater Section indicated a maximum mound height of 1.67 feet after ttivo
full years of continuous loading. These modeling results, and the much lower loading rates which are
anticipated for this system, suggest that mounding will not be a concern.
The function of the system was also simulated by the Groundwater Section to estimate the
impact of the drainfield on groundwater quality. The modeling program (FLOTRA-tiS) was used and
indicated that the proposed system would have a significant impact on groundwater quality and that
attenuation by rainfall dilution and other natural conditions may not be sufficient to achieve the
required Groundwater Quality Standards (15A NCAC 2L .0202) before the ground water travels to
the Compliance Boundary. In view of these results, the Groundwater Section recommends that
monitor wells be installed at upgradient and do,.vngradient locations near the drainfield (see Figure
2). These. two wells (iviW-1 and MW-2) should be sampled every March, July, and November for
,Ammonia Nitrogen. Nitrate Nitrogen, TDS, Chlorides, pH, Fecal Coliforms, and Water Level.
The Groundwater Section has reviewed the subject permit application and recommends issuance of
the permit with the following conditions:
Prior to beginning waste disposal operations, two'monitor wells; one upgradient (1iW-1) and one
downgradient (yiW-2), shall be installed to monitor groundwater quality. The well(s) shall be
constructed such that the water level in the well is never above or below the screened (open)
portion of the well at any time during the year. The general location and name for each well is
marked on Figure 2. Each monitoring well shall be located at the review boundary, constructed in
accordance with this permit, and approved by the Fayetteville Regional Office.
Monitor wells MW-1 and MW-2 shall be sampled initially after construction and thereafter every
March, July, and November for the following parameters:
Ammonia Nitrogen
TDS
PH
Water Level.
Nitrate Nitrogen
Chlorides
Fecal Coliforms
The measurement of water levels must be made prior to sampling for the remaining parameters.
The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point on the top of the
casing.

The measuring points (top ofwell casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to provide the
relative elevation'of the measuring point for each monitoring well.
The results of the sampling and analysis must be received on Form GW-59 (Groundwater
Quality Monitoring: Compliance Report Form) by the Groundwater Section; Permits and
Compliance Unit, 1636 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-1636 on or before the last
working day of the month following the sampling month.
3. All wells that are constructed for purposes of groundwater monitoring shall be constructed in
' accordance with 15A NCAC 2C .0108 (Standards of Construction for Wells Other .than Water
Supply) and any other state and local laws and regulations pertaining to well construction.
.4. The Fayetteville Regional Office, telephone number [phone], shall be notified at least
forty-eight (48) hours prior to the construction of any monitoring well so that an inspection can be
made of the monitoring well location. Such notification to the regional groundwater supervisor
shall be made during the normal office hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on tilonday through
Friday, excluding state holidays.
5. Within sixty (60). days of completion of all monitoring wells, the permittee shall submit two
original copies of a scaled topographic map (scale no greater than 1 ":100') signed and sealed by a
professional engineer or a state licensed land surveyor that indicates all of the following
information:
a. the location and identity of each monitoring well, —
b. the location of all components of the waste disposal system,
C. the location of all property boundaries,
d. the latitude and longitude of the established horizontal control monument,
e. the relative elevation of the top of the well casing (which shall be known as the "measuring
point"), and
f. the depth of water below the measuring point at the time the measuring point is established.
This survey shall be conducted using approved practices outlined in North Carolina General
Statutes Chapter 89C and the North Carolina Administrative Code Title 21, Chapter 56. The
surveyor shall establish a horizontal control monument on the property of the waste disposal
system and determine the latitude and longitude of this horizontal control monument to a
horizontal positional accuracy of+/-10 feet. All other features listed in a. through e. above shall

be surveyed relative to this horizontal control monument. The positional accuracy of features
listed in a. through e. above shall have a ratio of precision not to exceed an error of closure of 1
foot per 10,000 feet of perimeter of the survey. Any features located by the radial method will be
located from a minimum of two points. Horizontal control monuments shall be installed in such a
manner and made of such materials that the monument will not be destroyed due to activities that
may take place on the property. The map shall also be surveyed using the North American Datum
of 1983 coordinate system and shall indicate the datum on the map. All bearings or azimuths shall
be based on either the true or NAD 83 grid meridian. If a Global Positioning System (GPS) is
used to determine the latitude and longitude of the horizontal control monument, a GPS receiver
that has the capability to perform differential GPS shall be used and all data collected by the GPS
receiver will be differentially corrected.
The maps and any supporting documentation shall be sent to the Groundwater Section, NC
Division of Water Quality, P.O. Box 29578, Raleigh, NC, 29626-0578.
6. Within thirty (30) days of completion of all well construction activities, a certification must be
received from a professional engineer or a licensed geologist certifying that the monitoring wells
are located and constructed in accordance with the Well Construction Standards (15ANCAC 2C)
and this permit. This certification should be submitted with copies of the Well Completion Form
(GW-1) for each well. Mail this certification and the associated GW-1 forms to the Permits and
Compliance Unit, Groundwater Section, P.O-. Box 29578, Raleigh, NC, 27626-0578.
7. For the initial sampling of the well as specified elsewhere in the permit, the permittee shall submit
a copy of the GW-1 Form (Well Completion Form) with the Compliance Monitoring Form (GW-
59) for that well. Compliance Monitoring Forms that do not include copies of the GW-1 form will
be returned to the permitted without being processed. Failure to submit these forms as required by
this permit may result in the initiation of enforcement activities pursuant to NC General Statutes
143-215.6.
The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for the disposal system is specified by regulations in 15A
NCAC 2L, Groundwater Classifications and Standards. The Compliance Boundary for ground
absorption and disposal systems which are permitted under 15ANCAC 18A .1900 are established
at the property boundary in accordance with 15A NCAC 2L .0107(i). An exceedance of
Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to immediate
remediation action in addition to the penalty provisions applicable under General Statute 143-
215.6A(a)(1).
Page 4 of 5

V
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2L, a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around the disposal
systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the waste disposal area.
Any exceedance of standards at the Review Boundary shall require remediation action on the part
of the permittee.
9. Any additional groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division, shall be
provided.
If there are any questions please let me know

SUBJECT: Comments on the'Repair/Alteration of Exist.

Arcadia Village (DEH98-21-R, GW00156)
As requested, the Fayetteville Regional Office has
completed review of the subject facility and it's
need for groundwater monitoring in lieu of the
repair/alteration of the existing disposal system.
According to the submitted information and our
field evaluation, the soil area designated is
suitable for on -site wastewater disposal.

Please notice the maps attached to this memo. USGS
aerial and topo maps are included. The approximate
location of the LPP drainfield is indicated on each
map.
Discussion•
The drainfield is located on a ridge which is
situated near a tributary that flows into the Cape
Fear a short distance downstream. The gradient
between the drainfield and the stream is relatively

(z) Assumed N conc of domestic waste --40 ppm.
The nitrification lines in the drainfield are
installed below the rootzone, therefore not much of
the Nitrogen discharged in WW will be,removed by
plants.
Remarks/Recommenadations :
The proposed LPP system is suitable with respect to
the section .1900 rules (DEH). However this system
will probably create exceedances in 2L groundwater
standards and possibly .0200 surface water
standards.

The proposed system will probably not contaminate
groundwater any more than -a conventional system on
an equivalent basis, but the LPP system discharges
more wastewater and covers a larger area.
Therefore given the site conditions described
earlier, this system poses a potential threat to
groundwater and surface water quality.
The GW Section (FRO) recommends issuing the permit
with groundwater monitoring.,See the attached topo
map for the approximate' location of monitoring
wells.

_9,360_GP_D Conventional LLP Treatment System
Bladen Courrty___
DEH9.8-2.1-R/_GWOO 15-6
(Steven Berkowitz: DEH SERG Review Engineer)
The Groundwater Section is in receipt of the subject application to install a
conventional wastewater treatment system to treat the domestic wastewater stream
created by an existing 30-unit apartment complex. This project was previously revie«-ed
in November of 1998 under DEH 98-21/GW98126 and a new site had to be found
because of legal constraints.
Although the system is designed to handle a wastewater loading of 9,360 gallons
per day, the water bills for this apartment complex have indicated an average usage of
approximately 4,650 gallons per day. The system design includes a septic tank and
approximately 3,114 linear feet of distribution line (see Figures 1, 2, and 3). A soils.
scientist evaluated the suitability of the site, and a number of field tests were performed
to ascertain the elevation of the seasonal high water table and the
permeability of the subsoils. The seasonal high water table was found to be
approximately five feet below the surface of the proposed drainfield area .The
permeability of the shallow subsoil was measured with a permeameter, and the
permeability of the deeper (saturated) soil was measured by performing slug tests. The
permeameter tests and slug tests indicated that the permeability of both the saturated and
unsaturated zones was high, and the transmissivity of the saturated zone under seasonal
high water table conditions was conservatively estimated to be approximately 390 feet
squared per day.
The soil scientist used the Colorado State University Mounding Model to
estimate the mounding which could be expected to take place beneath the drainfield
under maximum design flow conditions. The modeling indicated that a maxi `
mound height of approximately 1.6 vertical feet could be expected beneath the cent

the drainfield after a full year of continuous loading at the design rate of 9,360 gallons per day. The
system was also modeled by the Groundwater Section using a similar modeling program and a
drainfield configuration that more closely matched the design specifications. The modeling
performed by the Groundwater Section indicated a maximum mound height of 1.67 feet after two
full years of continuous loading. These modeling results, and the much lower loading rates which are
anticipated for this system, suggest that mounding will not be a concern.
The function of the system was also simulated by the Groundwater Section to estimate the
impact of the drainfield on groundwater quality. The modeling program (FLOTRANS) was used and
indicated that the proposed system would have a significant impact on groundwater quality and that
attenuation by rainfall dilution and other natural conditions may not be sufficient to achieve the
required Groundwater Quality Standards (15A NCAC 2L .0202) before the ground water travels to
the Compliance Boundary. In view of these results, the Groundwater Section recommends that
monitor wells be installed at .upgradient and downgradient locations near the drainfield (see Figure
2). These two wells (MW-1 and MW-2) should be sampled every March, July, and November for
Ammonia Nitrogen, Nitrate Nitrogen, TDS, Chlorides, pH, Fecal Coliforms, and Water Level.
The Groundwater Section has reviewed the subject permit application and recommends issuance of
the permit with the following conditions:
1. Prior to beginning waste disposal operations, two monitor wells; one upgradient (MW-1) and one
downgradient (MW-2); shall be installed to monitor groundwater quality. The well(s) shall be
constructed such that the water level in the well is never above or below -the screened (open)
portion of the well at any time during the year. The general location and name for each well is
marked on Figure 2. Each monitoring well shall be located at the review boundary, constructed in
accordance with this permit, and approved by the Fayetteville Regional Office.
2. Monitor wells MW-1 and MW-2 shall be sampled initially after construction and thereafter every
March, July, and November for the following parameters:
Ammonia Nitrogen Nitrate Nitrogen
TDS Chlorides
PH Fecal Coliforms
Water Level.
The measurement of water levels must be made prior to sampling for the remaining parameters.
The depth to water in each well shall be measured from the surveyed point on the top of the
casing.

The measuring points (top of well casing) of all monitoring wells shall be surveyed to provide the
relative elevation of the measuring point for each monitoring well.
The results of the sampling and analysis must be received on Form GW-59 (Groundwater
Quality Monitoring: Compliance Report Form) by the Groundwater Section, Permits and
Compliance Unit,1636 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-1636 on or before the last
working day of the month following the sampling month.
3. All wells that are constructed for purposes of groundwater monitoring shall be constructed in
accordance with 15A NCAC 2C .0108 (Standards of Construction for Wells Other than Water
Supply) and any other state and local laws and regulations pertaining to well construction.
4. The Fayetteville Regional Office, telephone number [phone], shall be notified at least
forty-eight (48) hours prior to the construction of any monitoring well so that an inspection can be
made of the monitoring well location. Such notification to the regional groundwater supervisor
shall be made during the normal office hours from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on Monday through
Friday, excluding state holidays.
5. Within sixty (60) days of completion of all monitoring wells, the permittee shall submit two
original copies of a scaled topographic map (scale no greater than 1 ":100') signed and sealed by a
professional engineer or a state licensed land surveyor that indicates all of the following
information:
a. the location and identity of each monitoring well,
b. the location of all components of the waste disposal system,
c. the location of all property boundaries,
d. the latitude and longitude of the established horizontal control monument,
e. the relative elevation of the top of the well casing (which shall be lmown as the "measuring
point"), and
f. the depth of water below the measuring point at the time the measuring point is established.
This survey shall be conducted using approved practices outlined in North Carolina General.
Statutes Chapter 89C and the North Carolina Administrative Code Title 21, Chapter 56. The
surveyor shall establish a horizontal control monument on the property of the ,%vaste disposal.
system and determine the latitude and longitude of this horizontal control monument to a
horizontal positional accuracy of+/-10 feet. All other features listed in a. through e. above shall.

be surveyed relative to this horizontal control monument. The positional accuracy of features
listed in a.. through e. above shall have a ratio of precision not to exceed an error of closure of 1
foot per 10,000 feet of perimeter of the survey. Any features located by the radial method will be
located from a minimum of two points. Horizontal control monuments shall be installed in such a
manner and made of such materials that the monument will not be destroyed due to activities that
may take place on the property. The map shall also be surveyed using the North American Datum
of 1983 coordinate system and shall indicate the datum on the map. All bearings or azimuths shall
be based on either the true or NAD 83 grid meridian. If a Global Positioning System (GPS) is
used to determine the latitude and longitude of the horizontal control monument, a GPS receiver
that has the capability to perform differential GPS shall be used and all data collected by the GPS
receiver will be differentially corrected.
The maps and any supporting documentation shall be sent to the Groundwater Section, NC
Division of Water Quality, P.O. Box 29578, Raleigh, NC, 29626-0578.
6. Within thirty (30) days of completion of all well construction activities, a certification must be
received from a professional engineer or a licensed geologist certifying that the monitoring wells
are located and constructed in accordance with the Well Construction Standards (15A NCAC 2C)
and this permit. This certification should be submitted with copies of the Well Completion Form
(GW-1) for each well. Mail this certification and the associated GW-1 forms to the Permits and
Compliance Unit, Groundwater Section, P.O. Box 29578, Raleigh, NC, 27626-0578.
7. For the initial sampling of the well as specified elsewhere in the permit, the permittee shall submit
a copy of the GW-1 Form (Well Completion Form) with the Compliance Monitoring Form (GW-
59) for that well. Compliance Monitoring Forms that do not include copies of the GW-1 form will
be returned to the permittee without being processed. Failure to submit these forms as required by
this permit may result in the initiation of enforcement activities pursuant to NC General Statutes
143-215.6.
8. The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for the disposal system is specified by regulations in 15A
NCAC 2L, Groundwater Classifications and Standards. The Compliance Boundary for ground
absorption and disposal systems which are permitted under 15ANCAC 18A .1900 are established
at the property boundary in accordance with 15A NCAC 2L .0107(i). An exceedance of
Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to immediate
remediation action in addition to the penalty provisions applicable under General Statute 143-
215.6A(a)(1).
Page 4 of 5

In accordance with 15A NCAC 2L, a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around the disposal
systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the waste disposal area.
Any exceedance of standards at the Review Boundary shall require remediation action on the part
of the permittee.
9. Any additional groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by'the Division,.shall be
provided.
If there are any questions please let me know.

INTRODUCTION F -
Graham Environmental Consulting, Inc:(GECI) has performed a detailed
site/soils evaluation and mounding analysis on the proposed repair system site for the
Apartment Complex -Town of East Arcadia, NC-Bladen County. The purpose of this
evaluation and analysis was to evaluate the site's potential for use as a repair area to
serve the existing complex Design Flow for the facility is 9600 gpd. The wastewater is
expected to be of typical domestic.nature.
Site and soil parameters evaluated included soil texture, structure, horizonation,
soil wetness, consistency, soil depth, and depth to impermeable layer. Soil testing
included hydraulic conductivity's of both the unsaturated and saturated zone. Finding's
of the soils evaluation and testing were used to determine both a.recommended long-
term -acceptance rate and mounding potential.
The most current laws and rules governing subsurface wastewater systems in
North Carolina and the Procedures and Information Required for Approval of Large
Subsurface Wastewater Systems document was used as guides during the evaluation
and report preparation. The system design and engineering are being provided by Mr.
Tyndall Lewis, P.E. of McDavid Associates, Inc.
SITE AND SOILS EVALUATION
The proposed site is located off N. C. Highway 87 North in Southeastern Bladen
County. The specific location should be shown on plans submitted by Mc David
Associates, Inc.
The site is located on a linear -slope upland with surface slopes ranging from 0-2
percent The dominant soils revealed are well drained having a typical profile with a G-
60 inch thick loamy sand A, E and C horizon, with inclusions of a coarse sandy loam,
typically less than 6 inches thick, at 40 to 46 ,inches -where encountered. The deep C
horizon was a coarse to medium sand to depths of 18 feet. Deep borings were ceased
at 18 feet and no confining layer was encountered.

* Could Not Maintain Constant Head
Conductivity measurements were taken in the lower A/E, Bt, and deeper C
horizons above static water. The individual readings reveal conductivity's which would
be considered within the expected range for the sandy materials encountered across
the site.
Water levels during our study were typically from 7 to 8 feet below ground
surface. The range of long -term -acceptance rates were previously mentioned. Using
the lowest rate of the Bt inclusion(sandy loam Bt), 3.06 cm/hr, we calculate an
equivalent rate of 37.30 gpd/sf . This rate is equivalent to 2.70% of Ksat. Therefore,
the proposed 1.0 gpd/sf loading would not hydraulically overload this sites upper soils
material.
-HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY OF THE SATURATED ZONE -
The thickness and conductivity of the saturated zone must be known to
calculate its transmissivity. The transmissivity is the product of it's thickness and the
conductivity in units of length squared per unit time such as square feet per day.
Measurements of saturated hydraulic conductivity of saturated material can be
accomplished by several methods._ The method chosen for this site was the Slug Test
Method. This method was conducted in. accordance with procedures in Applied
Hydrology, 3rd Edition, Chapter 7, 7.5.1-7.5.3.

Having collected K-sat data from all layers and having field topo data, we had
sufficient data to perform our modeling approach. We used the Colorado State Model
to predict the rise above the estimated soil wetness condition over the site. The
following sections of this report describes our approach, inputs and program outputs.
MOUNDING ANALYSIS
Colorado State Model
Simulation 1- Wastewater Applicati6n(9360 GPD)
The computer model Colorado State Recharge was used to simulate the
mounding expected. Soil boring data presented earlier in this report revealed an
average depth to soil wetness of greater than 60 inches or using 60 inches, we would
have` a saturated zone of 5 to 18 feet minimum or 13 feet. Therefore, the. transmissivity
would equal 29.60 ft/day times 13 feet or 390.00 sf/d.
Using -a flow of 9600 gpd at an Itar of 1.0 gpd/sf with conventional lines, we set
our basin width at 158 feet and our length at 200 feet. This simulation was based on
16-200 foot lines or 9600_sf of trench bottom area or 1.0 gpd/sf-at 9600 gpd..
Page 15, of the appendix, presents the input data for the addition of 9600 gpd
over this basin area. Page 16 indicates the output or mound height predicted with
Page 17 presenting a,graphical representation of the mound: The predicted rise of
water would equal 1.626 feet at the center of the field at 360 days. ,Therefore, based
on this output, it appears that the mound development under this field would allow for
installation of conventional fields at shallow depths.

The A and E horizons were very friable with weak granular to single grained
structure.
The B horizon, where encountered, was a sandy loam with weak subangular
blocky structure. The lower C1 material was a medium to, coarse sand and was single
grained and very friable to loose.
The estimated soil wetness as per soil color was typically greater than 60
inches. The location of each boring is shown on our Site and Testing Locations Map,
Figure 1, Page 1, Appendix Soil boring descriptions are included on pages 2-4 of the
Appendix Not all soil boring's are included due the volume, however, we consider the
descriptions provided to adequately describe the site conditions.
Based on these finding's, .the site would be classified as suitable. The long-
term -acceptance rate for sandy soils would range from 1.20 to 0.80 gpd/sf(conv.).
Based on our finding's' an initial loading rate of 1.0 gpd/sf will be. used.
CONFINING LAYER DEPTH AND SATURATED THICKNESS
Deep borings were performed at DB# 1-3 for the purpose of identifying the
deeper materials and depth to confining layer. In review of the soil descriptions for
these borings, it can be seen that the saturated zone is composed of a medium to
coarse sand. Again, borings were ceased at 18 feet at each boring and no confining
layer was encountered. Therefore, we will use a bottom depth of 18 feet for mounding
and or transmissivity calculations. The saturated thickness was determined to be from
averaged seasonal high estimations to 18 feet or 13 feet thick.
HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY OF THE UNSATURATED ZONE
The compact constant head permeameter was -used to measure the hydraulic
conductivity of the unsaturated zone. The Glover solution was used to calculate the
specific rates from the data collected. The method used was similar to those described'
in Methods of Soil Analysis, Part 1., Chapter 29-Hydraulic Conductivity of Saturated
Soils: Field Methods, 29-3.2.Shallow Well Pump in Method, pp. 758-763 and in the Soil,
Science Journal, Vol. 53, no. 5, Sept=Oct 1989, " A Constant-Head-Permeameter for
Measuring Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity of the Vadose Zone" and Comparison of
the Glover Solution with the Simultaneous -Equations Approach for Measuring Hydraulic
Conductivity'.

Subject: Arcadia-_VillageP
Repair of 9,360 GPD Wastewater Treatment System
Bladen County
DEH 98-21/GW98126
(Steven Berkowitz: DEH SERG Review Engineer)
The Groundwater Section is in receipt of the subject application to permit the
repair of a domestic wastewater treatment system in Bladen County (see Figures 1 and
2) . The existing system serves to treat the wastewater generated by the Arcadia
Village Apartments in the town of East Arcadia, North Carolina. The construction
of the apartments and existing conventional treatment system were completed in 1983
and problems have been experienced with the treatment system due to seasonal high
water table conditions.
The proposed repairs will consist. of installing an LPP drain system which will
consist of extensive sand -lined trenches in an area where a soils investigation revealed
typical water table levels on the order of 70 to 90 inches below ground surface. The
soil coloration in this area suggested a seasonal high water table which is
approximately 34 inches below ground surface. The distribution lines will be run in
the center of trenches three feet wide and will be on nine -foot centers. The design
flowrate of the system will be 9,360 gallons per day, although the water bills have
reportedly indicated an average usage of approximately 4,650 gallons per day. The
receiving area of the sand -lined trenches will be approximately 9,300 square feet and
result in a trench application rate of approximately one gallon per day per square foot,
or 1.6 inches per day. Because the trenches are six feet apart, the application rate to
the subsoil will be approximately one-third of this figure, or 0.53 inches per day. The
Applicant's consultant utilized two groundwater simulation programs, DRAINMOD
and the Colorado State University Mounding Model, to simulate the impact of the

drainfield on the underlying water table. Both models were run using a maximum amount of
surface application area which minimized the concentration of hydraulic loading. The model
outputs indicated that the drainfield could accommodate an application rate of 10,000 gallons per
day. The response of the water _table to drainfield operation was also simulated by the
Groundwater Section using the Colorado State University Mounding Model (CSUPAWE), and
the results were very close to those given by the consultant's model. In view of these results and
the fact that the models used a flowrate which was above the design rate of the system and more
than twice the average reported flowrate of actual water usage by the apartment complex, the
Groundwater Section believes that the system should function as intended. The new system will
reportedly include a sand filter which will improve the quality of the water which is discharged
- -- - - - _to the drainfield _distribution system.-
It is the understanding of the Groundwater Section that the applicant intends to excavate
much of the shallow (less permeable) sandy clay soils and backfill the trench areas with sand
to enhance hydraulic permeability. It is also the understanding of the Groundwater Section that
a groundwater drain will be installed on the south side of the application area. The Groundwater
Section is concerned about the quality of the ground water being intercepted by the groundwater
drain and ultimately discharged into the trihutary known as Turkeypen Branch. The Groundwater
Section recommends that water samples be collected from the groundwater drain discharge on
an annual basis and analyzed for Ammonia Nitrogen, Nitrate Nitrogen, TDS, Cl, pH, and Fecal
Coliform. The Groundwater Section understands that the Division of Environmental Health would
like to have a non potable water supply well installed- at the site for utility and maintenance
purposes. The construction of a water supply well inside of a Compliance Boundary would
constitute a violation of 15A NCAC 2L .0107 (d). The best solution to this situation may be to
allow a variance for the well's construction under the condition that the well not be used for
drinking purposes, he permanently laheled as "non potable'; and be secured against
unauthorized access.
The Groundwater Section has reviewed the subject permit application and recommends issuance
of the permit with the following conditions:
*1. The groundwater drain discharge shall be sampled every March and analyzed for the
following parameters:
Ammonia Nitrogen
TDS
pH
Nitrate Nitrogen
Cl
Fecal Coliform.
2. Any groundwater quality monitoring, as deemed necessary by the Division; shall be provided.
*This language differs from that of • the shell document.

*3. The COMPLIANCE BOUNDARY for the disposal system is specified by regulations in 15A
NCAC 2L, Groundwater Classifications and Standards. The Compliance Boundary is for
the disposal system individually permitted after December 31, 1983 is established at either
(1) 250 feet from the waste disposal area, or (2) 50 feet within the property boundary,
whichever is closest to the waste disposal area. For a subsurface system such as this, the
Compliance Boundary is established at the property boundary. An exceedance of
Groundwater Quality Standards at or beyond the Compliance Boundary is subject to
immediate remediation action in addition to the penalty provisions applicable under General
-._Statute 143-215. 6A a) (I). -
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2L, a REVIEW BOUNDARY is established around the
disposal systems midway between the Compliance Boundary and the perimeter of the waste
disposal area. Any exceedance of standards at the Review Boundary shall require
remediation action on the part of the permittee.
If there are any questions please let me know.

Item 10. A hydrogeologic description of the subsurface, to a depth of 20 feet or bedmck, whichever is less. The number of borings shall be sufficient to define the following for the area underlying each
major soil type at the disposal site:
(i) significant changes In Ethology underlying the site
(fi) the vertical permeability of the unsaturated zone and the hydraulic conductivity of the saturated zone
(ili) depth to the mean seasonal high water table (if definable from soil morphology or from evaluation of other applicable available data); and
(iv) a determination of trsnsmLsmivity and specific yield of the unconfined aquifer based on a withdrawal or recharge test
Item 11. A hydrogeologic description of the subsurface, which should include information on the vertical and horizontal event, and the lithologic character of the unconfined aquifer. The hydraulic
relationship between the unconfined aquifer and the first confined aquifer beneath the site should be determined, Including the thickness, lithologic character, and vertical permeability of
the confining bed. The information must also include a determination of the tansmistvity and specific yield of the unconfined aquifer, determined by either a withdrawal or recharge test.
Item 12. A hydrologic evaluation in the area of the proposed waste disposal facility waste disposal facility, which should include the depth to water, direction of movement and quality of groundwater
in the shallow groundwater system, as well as an evaluation of the potential impacts the proposed system may have on groundwater levels, movement and quality.
Item 13, In order to be in compliance with 15 NCAC 2H .0219 (Q. any lagoon or pond used for treatment, storage or disposal of waste shall have either a liner of natural material at least one foot in
thickness and having a hydraulic conductivity of no greater than 1 x 10 -6 centimeters per second when compacted, or a synthetic liner of sufficient thickness to exhibit 1) structural
Integrity, and 2) an effective hydraulic conductivity no greater than that of the natural material liner. Please provide a derail description of the materials used for liners.
Item 14, 15 NCAC 2H .0219 (e) specifies that waste shall of be applied or discharged onto or below the land surface when the vertical separation between the waste and the seasonal high water table
is less than ONE tU FWr if any of the area to be utilized has a separation of less than 1TUW [3) THRW, E. a demonstration must be made using predictive calculations or modeling methods,
acceptable to the Director, that such placement will not result in contravention of classified groundwater standards. Please provide information describing the depth to rran seasonal
