HYDROGEOLOGIC ANALYSIS FOR WATER REUSE
PROJECT TGAA W - ®I C - 00
FinTRODUCTION: W
1.1 Statement of Purpose:
The purpose of this evaluation for the development projects in the Kinnak-eet Shores Development
Area, Dare County, North Carolina is to determine the hydrogeologic and soil characteristics needed
to support a reuse, infiltration pond and a non -discharge rotary distributor system application to the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality (N.C.D. W. Q. ). The site is currently planned for a 350,000
gallons per day disposal of tertiary treated waste water using rotary distributors. This analysis
evaluates water reuse of 350,W0 gallons per day, converting the currently permitted 220,000 gallons
per day from the rotary distributors throughout the development. The analysis includes the common
areas for the development; roadside area, and the vicinity of the existing waste water treatment
plant. The rotary distributors will be used for 5 -day transient state disposal of effluent not suitable
for irrigati n upset pond) . This area will be irrigated normally, with transient loading up to 10
gallons per day per square feet to provide short term disposal. With the sand matrix, the storage
pond will store or infiltrate at 1.49 gallons per day per square foot, during. inclement weather or if
there is a plant upset. The infiltration ponds are projected in the water balance and MODFLOW
simulation to be used only in the winter months,
The hydrogeologic and soil characteristics were used to. determine the amount of irrigation and the
loading that can be applied on the roadside areas at Kinnakeet Shores Development and the existing
area, Dare County, N.C.. The results of this evaluation will be used by Mr. Mark Bissell, P.E.,
Bissell Professional Group in preparation of final design documents that will comply with NCDWQ
regulations. This analysis evaluates the potential of the soils to assimilate organic and metals
loading and determines safe loading rates for spray irrigation of tertiary treated waste water on
maintained common areas and it also evaluates disposal of short term effluent (Reclaimed Water
using a spray bed in the vicinity of the existing rotary distributors. The field work supporting this

therefore, loading is based principally on hydrologic constraints. The assumed loading
concentrations discussed in this evaluation are probably-highfor4ertiary treated effiuent and can be
fwrther controlled by mechanicaltreatment if necessary.
The development projects: Kinnakeet Shores is on.a regressive beach ridge complex. The area is
served by a central waste water treatment facility at Kinnakeet Shores Development. This report
refers to the total project area as the Kinnakeet Shores Irrigation Area
The purpose of this evaluation is not only an analysis of the ability to dispose of reclaimed water,
but also, this evaluation is a type of water suuvly evaluation. Water supply is limited on the barrier
island system. Therefore, use of reclaimed water is necessary to sustain a viable site on droughty
beach ridge soils. This analysis focuses on irrigation of the common areas as a method to preserve
and redistribute groundwater on the barrier island llnd water flo is divergent, to the Pamlico
Sound to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east.
1.2 Regulatory Requirements:
The proposed system will operate under a Non -Discharge Permit issued by the State of North
Carolina, Department of Environment, ' Health, and Natural Resources, Division of Environmental
Management (Division,of Water Quality). Applicable regulations governing this type of facility are
included in 15 A NCAC 2H .0200 (.0219) - Waste Not Discharged to Surface Waters, effective
February 1, 2000, and 15 A NCAC 2L - Ground Water Classifications and Standards.
Requirements relating to soil and hydrogeologic characteristics of the site include a hydrogeologic

and lithologic description of the site to depth of 20 feet [(5Xe)], and a determination of
transvity and specl�fic yield of the unconfined aquifer based on a withdrawal or recharge test
[(5) (f)]. 15A A NCAC .0205 also addresses design specifications to be provided by a professional
engineer. 15A A NCAC 2H .0219k will be applicable because this proposed disposal is land
application on a maintained common area. 15A A NCAC 2H. 0400 addresses aerial limitations and
engineers LNuirements for this type of facility and 15A A NCAC 21, addresses Compliance
Boundaries and the maximum allowable concentrations of substances discharged to ground -water
from this type of facility. This irrigation is water reuse of reclaimed water, therefore, it is extremely
unlikely that groundwateLcontamination can occur The effluent is treated using a tertiary plant,
diluted in a large storage pond and applied at extremely low rates (equivalent to a low pressure pipe
disposal system of 0.28 gallons per day per square foot for a 3.1 inch per week application on the
sandy soils).
1.3 Project Location:
The site is located south of N.C. Route 12, south of Avon (Figure Number 1, Site Location Map to
be included in engineering documents). The North Carolina Planar Coordinates for the site are
approximately3,040,000 feet East and 600,000 feet North. The site appears to be typical of the
Coastal Plain region of North Carolina According to the Soils Map of Dare County the area
consists of a barrier island, regressive beach ridge complex
The slopes range from nearly level to more than 2 percent on the proposed area to be irrigated The
site has elevations extending to greater than 18 feet above sea level The drainage is predominantly
to the east and west as interstitial groundwater flow. The surface water drainage is collected and
diverted to a stormwater infiltration pond to the south of the existing rotary distributors.

1.4 Scope of Work/Field Methodology:
The scope of this project includes the collection of all surficial and subsurface data necessary to
characterize the site based on site specific hydrologic and soil functions relative to spray irrigation
for water reuse. Site specificuifer testing was not performed within the scope of this current
investigation Aquifer testing was completed during the original evaluation for the rotary
distributors, in July1986. Information used to develop aquifer coefficients and values for the
underlying sand (water table) aquifer was from the soils, and generally confirmed by the water table
contour. This information is to be subjectively compared and calibrated with overall site
characteristics. Forexample, the determinationofcoeffcients from the previous water table aquifer
test were evaluated relative to the current water table elevations and the test boring logs. A
MODFLOW simulation compares measured water table surface to expected steady state conditions,
with average annual evapotranspiration.
Field work for this study consisted of the
installation of additional hand borings,
completed as temporary piezometers to
supplement the previous data. Deeper test
wells were installed in order to determine
the dimensions of the water table aquifer
and determine aquifer coefficients. The
horizontal and vertical controls for the
observation points were surveyed and
static levels (where available), were
measured A soil map has been prepared

infiltration rates, double ring infilrpmeter testing was used instead of (k„ j analysis.
1.5 Report Preparation:
This report analyzes current field data and field conditions observed during the study period and
uses information collected throughout the Kinnakeet Shores Development area. Loading models
and predictive methodology, that are based on field da ocumen is characteristics of the site
that may limit loading. This will provide the opportunity to obtain the maximum potential for this
�r
site as a water reuse facility. Therefore, predicted chemical and biologic loading functions are
expected to be enhanced
This evaluation is based on the concept of using d waste water disnnsal, which
greatly reduces heavy metals and organics from the reclaimed water. The concept is to provide
additional treatmeload the site at a maximum spray irrigation rate of 3 1 inches per week
This study is for water reuse of reclaimed water. However, the site is even suitable for low pressure
pipe or high rate disposal in the vicinity of the excessively well drained soil from an infiltration
capaci perspective. Typically, large volume systems should function properly without enhanced
drainage on the barrier island.
This evaluation indicates care operation and maintenance of the site is needed to insure that
the site is not instantaneously overloaded. This cfi�l oatiQn is nece��ry sc► t at pffig m 'g

inch per application dose (will vary based on soil specific characteristics) and approximately 6 to
9 doses are needed for the average week for the best soils.
One. of the advantages of land application of tertiary treated effluent on beach ridge deposits is the

ongoing careful maintenance and monitoring that the resort community experiences. In this case
maintenance and monitoring will need to be provided by treatment plant personnel and irrigation
maintenance personnel for the Kinnakeet Shores Area.
This report is divided into segments dealing with soils, hydrogeology {water table), agwfer
hydrology, and loading analysis. Generally figures and tables are included in the text to help
visualization, 8.5 by Ll or 11 by 17 copies of the figures and larger tables are located in the
appendix of this report for detail.
All reports prepared by Edwin Andrews & Associates, P.C. are shuctured to fallow the flow of
waxer: Initially, it is necessary to define the framework in which reclaimed water flows. This section
is labeled as "Soil and Geology." The hydrology of the unsaturated zone and definition of the waxer
table surface is in a section labeled "Hydrogeology". Once the reclaimed water reaches the water
table aquifer, lateral flow will be induced to neighboring surface water or drainage. This flow is
analyzed in the section labeled "Aquifer'Hydrology." Since water reuse will be implemented, the
chemical relationshipof the reclaimed water withthe site is -evaluated in a section labeled "Loading
Analysis".

developments. The soils were mapped based on a field investigation on October 9, 2000 (Figure
No. 2, Soil Map 11" by 17" Attached in Appendices). The foredunes and maritime dunes consist
of Newhan series and Newhan-Corolla complex. The lower areas consist of Duckston series and
were formed by wind erosion until the unsaturated thickness was adequate to support maritime
growth. The areas with intermediate unsaturated thickness depths was mapped as Corolla series.
2.2 Soil Descriptions
The areas mapped within the Kinnakeet Shores Development (site) are located in the Coastal Plain
Physiographic Region of North Carolina. The site includes four vegetative zones; the foredune-
beach, shrub, maritime forest and marsh. A majority of the site is in the foredune-beach and shrub
vegetative zones. Broad gently sloping flats between the dunes are evident as well as steeply sloping

dunes with narrow convex ridges and steep slopes (5-81DA). The site is bound to the north by Avon; to the
south by undeveloped open area; to the east by the Atlantic Ocean; and, to the west by the Pamlico
Sound
The soils that comprise the site belong mainly to the New n soil association
which contain nearly level to gently sloping (0-2%), poorly drained to excessively well -drained soils
that have a subsoil of fine to medium sand ' The soils were deposited mostly by wind and water
during the Holocene to recent ages as regressive beach ridge complexes. Soil found along the
beachfront belong to the Newhan-Duneland Association which are nearly level, moderately deep,
excessively well_drained. sotthathave a subsoil offine sand In the shrub zone theNewhanit7rba
Complex series dominates. A small portion of maritime forest exists between the existing rotary
distributor waste water disposal system and the marsh zone. In the marsh zone the Cape Fear series
predominates which is a nearly level, poorly drained organic and sandy soil.
The soils found on the site have been altered significantly by development. Some of the area could
be mapped as Urban Complex The urban land or urban complex has been developed to describe
soils that have been altered by cutting, grading, or filling in the construction of picking lots,
shopping centers, paved roads and home Sites. The extent of modification varies widely depending
on the improvement. Many areas on the site have been subject to little disturbance, while other
areas have been extensively graded or filled. A characteristic associated with urban development
of the soils on the Outer Banks ofNorth Carolina, is the use of fill sand that is extremely compatible
hydraulically with the natural sand
easttio s�flk operations't >Yorth This area
is mapped as madeland soils, with sand and hydraulically interspersed clay lenses. The clay lenses should be
reworked for the five day upset pond location. In areas selected for irrigation and injiltratiion ponds, the clay
layers should be removed prior to water reuse.

deposited as a transgressive unit during early Pliocene highstand of the sea (Ward, Lauck
W,m Bailey, Richard H And Carter, Joseph G. 1991). In the vicinity of the site bore hole
records indicate that the lithology is silty to shelly fine sand. This appears to form the Lower
Yorktown Aquifer on site. The Rushmere and Mogarts Beach member represent the
transgressive and regressive stages of the most extensive transgression of the Pliocene and
Pleistocene ages. The Rushmere member is determined (Ward and Blackwelder, 1980) to
be shallow shelf sea deposits. This probably relates to the Middle Yorktown Aquifer
expected beneath the project site. The Morgart Beach Member reflect deposits in broad
sound and lagoons behind regressive barrier bars. Local sand deposits occur as a semi -
confined Upper Yorktown aquifer. The deposits of the Morgart Beach member consist of
fine to very fine, silty sand, sandy silt to silty clay.
The Holocene regressive beach ridge sediments were evaluated in a boring location near the
infiltration/irrigation site. The lithologic log (Table # 1B, Lithologic Logs) describes the

3.1 General Hydrology:
The hydrogeology portion of this evaluation focuses on the drainage of the reclaimed water into and
through the soil on the existing site. This movement is characterized by infiltration rates (often
described as Kam. During infiltration, water gravity drains from the surface through unsaturated
interstices into the capillary zone and subsequently into the water table aquifer. As the water
reaches the water table surface, the surface will be rising as a result of the new water (mounding).
This movement will be slowed considerably because of trapped gases (air and nitrogen) and surface
tension in partially saturated soils (matric and osmotic potential) in the upper capillary portion and
the saturated portion of the lower capillary zone. It is understood that the field methods for
estimating infiltration rates will be relatively high compared to an actual discharging system or
rainfall. grates are estimated on less than 2% of the lowest estimated permeabilities"
(estimated permeability 10% or the lowest le infiltrometer results - 20 in./hr.) for the least
permeable soil horizon for the series. uble Ring ltrometer tests Compact
Constant Head Permeameters (kk(,,,,) due to the sandy texture of the beach ridge deyosits. Double
ring infiltrometer results indicated infiltration rates greater than 20 inches M hour (Doble Ring
Infiltrometer Results from "Hydrogeologic Evaluations for the Waste Water Disposal Site,

analysis a conservative infiltration rate f 20 inches per hour is us
All regressive beach ridge surface layers throughout the site will accept and store the sprayed
effluent, allowing for infiltration over an ' t hour ri requent small hydraulic loadings will

3.2 Infiltration Rate Analysis (Double Ring Infiltrometer):
It was not feasible to perform Ksat analysis because of the extremely high hydraulic conductivity,
therefore Double Ring Infiltrometers were utilized For analysis this report uses the lesser infiltration
rate of the measured double ring infiltrometer versus -the SCS data which indicates a permeability
of 20 inches per hour for all selected horizons below land surface. Considering the effect of trapped
gases and surface tension on grate d_r iniin, effluent, it is recommended to use a loading rate
significant) lower than that doteermiitied by the SCS permeability of the least permeable material.
The soil descriptions indicate that there are no other discontinuous restrictive horizons (less than
20 inches per hour) which will affect the drainage values used for the water balance analysis.
t
component for low rate application sucher reuse is the ability of the underlying saturated zone to transmit water laterally. The most
restrictive soil conductivity estimate was used to establish a "monthly drainage" value in the water
balance analyses. The monthly drainage value is a very small percentage of the estimated K,,, value
(less than 1/10 of the EPA recommended 4% or 2%). For large application areas, it is likely that
secondary permeability will increase vertical permeabilit�in restrictive loamy horizons. It is
expected that the predominant by o ogic forces are evapotranspiration and lateral flow in the
surficial soils to the surface drainage near the site. Land application should be after -periods of
adequate recharge and reaeration. Care should betaken to insure that rainfall loading has infiltrated
to the water table or deep enough to allow for land application (Field Capacity).

4.1 General:
The aquifer hydrology of the site is facilitated -by divergent drainage flowing to the Pamlico Sound
and to the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast These surface water bodies are defined as constant head
boundaries in the modeling efforts (red color in Figure No. 4-2). The configuration of the irrigation
system optimizes the effect of this drainage by placing the irrigation into the different drainage
divides. Additionally, the loading rate has been minimized to 3.1 inches per week for the sandy
well -drained areas. The sandy soil will accommodate 0.4 inch per dose within a one hour period
The totaloapacitvofthe site is -deed

The mounding models (Figure Nos. 6-A through 6-L, Mounding Model) do not appear to reflect the

-by a recommended ditch as to the north east and south of the infiltration basin. The depth to water
,during the winter will }probably be less than one foot in some of the area mapped as Duckston soils,
therefore irrigation should not occur at the time when conditions result in a water table depth less
than 1.0 feet from the land surface.
All of the hydraulic and solute models reflect low rate disposal for the infiltration pond throughout
the year, however, the infiltration pond should be pumped to provide irrigation water during most
of the growing season. It is expected that there will be times throughout the growing portion of the
year that several days of (storage) disposal in the spray will be needed It is also expected that
there will be several days in which irrigation can occur during January and February.

The modeling is conservative by applying 3 50,000 gallons per day throughout the year (Figure Nos.

during the winter months. During wet summers, it will be necessary to rely on the infiltration pond,
area temporarily.
It should also be noted that this design configuration using reclaimed water results in dispersed
loading. The Eon ' will be less with the short term spray beds than the existing rotary
distributors, which would have operated continuously. The continuous use ofthe rotary distributors
would create very high nitrates because "rotary distributors" will not properly convert effluent
(denitrify) in the highly permeable sand. Vegetative uptake, dispersion and some derutrification
will occur in the irrigated areas where water reuse is implemented-

5.1 Water Balance Analysis:
The water balance is an analysis used to determine the amount of storage needed to accommodate
the lack of evapotranspiration and th a ect o gh rate rainfall vents during winter months. The
hydrogeologic components of infiltration and unsaturated flow define the drainage -component of
the water balance. ltration rates a used to determine average irrigation rates, drainage times -
and re -aeration cycle times. Using the malts of the water balance, a loading analysis was Prepared
nitrogen, phosphorous, salt, organic and heavy metal loading.
Typically, the nitrogen loading and the hydraulic loading determine site limiting con 'lions. In the
event that nitrogen becomes the limiting constituent, additional treatment such as artificial wetlands
or mechanical treatment may be a solution to the nitrogen limitation. Notwithstanding additional
treatment, nutrient or chemical limitations can be characterized by groundwater solute modeling to
determine if a contravention of 15 A NCAC 21 standards will potentially occur. ,
The 6ld ca i estimated for the underlying well sorted sand using data derived from
hydraulic conductivity and ated specific yield. The surface soil over most of the site is -well
sorted fine to medium sand .(typically described as fine sand - described by Ed Andrews,
N.C.L.S.S.). These soils would be expected to exhibit field capacities in the range of 15 to 20 per
cent on the 0.3 bar suction (field capacity should not be considered constant). This is an estimate
of the amoun�of ertical drainage occurs until the drainage rate becomes small enough to
necessitate more irrigation (near wilting point). To accommodate the root zone to a depth of 10
inches, the site can accommodate at least 1--5 inch a = 1.5 inch). The recommended

A typical fine sand will vertically drain in approximately 0.5 day. For conventional land application
this would require reaeration time, estimated to be less than 1 day (at 0.2 to 0.4 ft per hour). As
stated in the hydrogeologic analysis, the urface materfii�exhibits extremely high infiltration rates,
particularly in the higher elevations because of the regressive beach ridge and dune sequences.
Water reuse of reclaimed water is not conventional land a lication because there has been
additionaltreatment, which converts ammonia -to nitrate mechanically_ Organic content, uptake and
reducing environments will be the significant treatment processes needed for denitrification. The
irrigated effluent needs to be available to the root zone, requiring more frequent loadings of small
doses. At the Kinnakeet Shores Development Area, the loading can be made on even intervals of
0.4 inch per dose (not to exceed the average annual loading of 3.1 inches per week for the
excessively well drained Newhan/Corolla complex). Note that during periods of drought and
excessive evapotranspiration, the loading should be increased accordingly. Conversely, during
periods of extreme cold and wet conditions, the loading should be decreased accordingly, using the
storage capacity in the irrigation/infiltration pond.

The site consists ofpermeable sand ridges and divergent drainage flowing as groundwater directly
to the Pamlico Sound and the Atlantic Ocean to the east.
5.1.2. Water Balances:
The water balance is based on an estimate of the restrictiv�horiz�o using a factor developed
by the U.S.E.P.A. of 0.04 to 0.1. Therefore, typical drainage values do not take into account the
maximum effect of both lateral flow in the more permeable surface soil (Darcy equation to lateral
drainage, Q = T * W * dh/dl), and interstitial storage. In most cases, the actual infiltration rate will
be significantly higher than used in the water balance analysis, which is defined as "drainage." In
many Piedmont soils it becomes necessary to use the "A" horizon to store and transmit water during
the early stages after dosing, however, this surficial storage is not needed on the sandy soil of the
Outer Banks beach ridge complex.
The water balance analysis shows that storage is not required for the well to excessively drained
soils (Table # 6-A, Water Balance Analysis - Excessively Well Drained Duckston/Newhan/Corolla
Soils) From this water balance, it can be seen that storage is not needed. There is no environmental
risk or significant storage requirement for loading 3.1 inch per week on Excessively Well Drained
Duckston/Newhan/Corolla Soils. A MODFLOW simulation was used to evaluafe,-r cy flow of
the disposal to the Pamlico Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. The actual infiltration rate will be,

A storage capacity o three day should be used as a minimum design, coupled with 60 days using
disposal from the storage pond.

In order for this water balance analysis to be conservative, drainage (including ET) must effectively
drain the water table surface and the Darcy Equation must be satisfied. The standard water balance
typically does not take into account lateral saturated flow (Darcy Flow). Based on the MODFLOW
analysis for 350,000 gallons per ,mounding�be minimized to between 1 to 2 feet throughout
most of the site and the Darcy Equation will be satisfied with the existing drainage and

acre uptake can be expected for the nitrogen after 50% denitrification in the thatch horizons (Table
9 7-A, Loading Analysis). The irrigated areas should be planted with grasses between the natural
vegetation. From this, it appears that the site is nitrogen limiting, requiring 79-9 acres which is
greater than the 30 acres that are being irrigated. However, since the soil is droughty, the nitrates
will migrate below the root zones at less than 20 milligrams per liter (Figures No. 7A - 7L, Nitrates

Phosphorous will not receive the same degree of plant uptake as nitrogen. For the purpose of this
analysis, the grassed area -is expected to uptake 80-poundsper acreper. year. However, phosphorous
is relatively immobile. Soil sampling is made several times per year to insure phosphorous buildup
does not occur. Irrigation of additional areas such as individual water reuse irrigation at each house
will disperse the phosphorous in a larger area This loading will be absorbed in the thatch and soil.

Assuming: 5 Is TOD/acre for grassed areas 20.4 acres is necessary *(this analysis does not consider the effect on
grasses.) The remaining organic loading is projected to be removed during the lateral migration of groundwater. It
is also expected that the TOD should be further reduced in the tertiary treatment.
5.5 Salt Loading:
The sodium concentration in this effluent is expected to be relatively high. However, the impact of
a low sodium absorption ratio (SAR) is low to moderate for the surface quartzitic sand, which
generally have extremely low shrink swell potential. The vegetation on the outer banks of North
Carolina is salt tolerant due to ambient chloride concentration from wind and storm events.
Because of the nature of the reworked soils, which lack moderate shrink -swell clays, the maximum,
safe SAR is 10. Using a typical chemical analysis of tertiary treated waste water analysis for the
Town of Long Beach, California, "Irrigation with Reclaimed Municipal Wastewater -A Guidance

5.6 Heavy Metals Loading:
Heavy metal loadings are generally limited based on the ionic activity of associated clay minerals
and organic deposits comprising the quartzitic surface soils. The Kinnakeet Shores Development
area contains a very low percentage of clay. For the purpose of this analysis, a useful cation exchange
capacity of 5 meq/100 g is applied as a minimum. It is expected that the potential heavy metal
concentrations will be very low in treated domestic effluent_ The heavy metals should be
predominantly removed with the sludge.

The site can accommodate typical tertiary treated effluent at a loading rate of more than 3.1 inches
per week relative to heavy metal loading. It should be noted that oxidation, precipitation and plant
uptake are processes that will further reduce heavy metal Ioadings. Heavy metal concentration
should be insignificant from a tertiary treatment plant with sludge removal and use of an irrigation
pond to allow for precipitation and dilution.
5.7 Loading Alternatives:
It is recommended that water reuse be made available on 30 acres+/- to minimize any possible

environmental impact. Denitrification will reduce the impact from the loading. The site will
function as modeled up_ to 3.1 .inches -per_ week.-_ The lower the loading rate, the less the
environmental impact.
The degree of treatment can be determined based on final tlitrogen,,phosphorous, and organic loading
(BOD, NOD & COD). It is important that either the reclaimed water quality be sufficiently better
than the quality assumed in the loading calculations or additional land be available for irrigation.
Analysis of the existing waste water should show that organic and heavy metals loading are
significantly lower than used in this loading analysis.
It is feasible that variations in T-Qtal Dissolved Solids in the existing ground water system (beach
environment with salt overwash and northeasters), will make the utilization of TDS as an indicator
parameter difficult to manage. Being a coastal community, chloride concentrations and total
dissolved solids will fluctuate.
The site was modeled for nitrate using MT3D (Zeng, C. And Bennett, G.D., 1995). The value for
denitrification and uptake is 30% for the model. The results are shown on Figure 7A-L, Nitrates
Model Results. The predicted concentrations are all less than 10 mg/1 after 360 days of continuous
loading. There will not be a contravention of 15A NCAC 2L limits at the compliance boundaries for
nitrates based on design loading of 15 mg/l nitrates from a tertiary treatment plant.

b.l CONCLUSIONS:
This analysis has evaluated the soils and hydrologic characteristics of the proposed water reuse site
for the Kinnakeet Shores Development Area, Dare County, North Carolina The environmental
impact from water reuselandXtransient state infiltration pond will be significantly less than septic
tank drainfields. The area calculations are based on an inspection of the proposed plan. The actual
loading area for thedevelopment will be -refined by Bissell Professional Group for the project. The
loading and storage volumes should be adjusted once the final area is designed -
This evaluation consists oftwo components: th�omponent evaluates waterreuse on Green area
along the road rights -of -way; and, th seco d component evaluates infiltration pond to be used as
story a and wet weather infiltration. MODFLOW simulations of the irrigation revealed that the
mounding will be approximately l to 2 feet in the central portion of the site for irrigation from
March through October and 3.5 feet for the infiltration pond area. In the model simulation the
reclaimed water should actually
from January through February. In reality there will
be man__u a d� this-2gri in which irrigation will be desirable, on warmer dry days.
Inversely, there will be periods during unusually wet summers, where infiltration wouldbe erred
to- ation.
The use of an infiltration site to dispose of the upset water will have less impact, than the existing
permitted rotary distributors because the effluent will be treated to reclaimed water standards and
the loading will be transient rather than continuous (5 days). This report evaluates the loading from
spray beds, for the upset loading as well as the storage.

6.2 RECOMMENDATIONS:
The recommendations resulting from this analysis are summarized as follows:
• Use a loading rate 6inches per week for all of the reuse area in the excessively drained
Duckston/Newhan/Corolla soils to accommodate 350,000 gallons per day.
• Use up to an instantaneous loading rat 0.4 in�perdoseor all of the reuse area in the
excessively drained soils.
Use a loading rate of 10.0 gallons per day per square foot for the proposed spray beds (rotary
distributors) for storage disposal of 5 day upset load..
Use a -loading rate of up to 1.5 gallons per day per square foot for the infiltration basin for
water balance storage disposal
Additional drainage is needed around the existing disposal site to provide a ground water
as modelled initially.
In summary, the site can be used safely for a discharge of 350,000 gallons per day at a loading rate
up to 3.1 inches per week with suitable tertiary treatment. A storage -capacity of 5 days or
1,750,000 gallons is recommended, to accommodate several rainfall events, by using the spray beds
(rotary distributors). The water balance shows that a loading rate seater than 1.9 inch ner week will
add nitrates to the water table aquifer. A modflow simulation revealed that nitrogen is not a limiting
factor on the excessively drained soils areas based on an initial concentration of 20 mg/l. It is
anticipated that effluent quality is expected to be less than 10 mg/l for nitrogen. The solute transport
model for the irrigation -confirmed that contravention at the compliance boundaries for the site is
unlikely. The solute transport model for the spray beds shows that th ncentrate ' 1 not reach the
property boundary if the effluent quality is less than 20 milligrams per liter and th drain is
provided. Generally, the movement of the Irrigated w7ateell be toward the maritime forest. rTre
