SUBJECT: Rinnakeet Shores Proposed Expansion

Bissell Associates latest submittal on this project has been reviewed. The
eight rotary distributors have been reoriented to allow for maximum separation
to the interceptor ditch. I called Mr. Bill Gilbert of Bissell Associates
January 27, 1989, and related the following concerns. Mr. Gilbert indicated he
would relay my concerns to the owners and get back to me within two weeks.
1. Six of eight rotary distributors are still within the maximum
distance to a line sink (200 feet).
2. Even though the requirement for green area is met, there is no
location for additional rotaries in the event an existing rotary
failed.
3. The concept of cluster rapid rate disposal systems at a close
proximity to roperty lies is, in my opinion, a mistake. The
problems are p(a) very little dilution, if any, before the perimeter
of compliance is encountered, (b) the perimeter of compliance is
very close.

RE: Kinnakeet Shores Soundside Phase I, Dare County
Wastewater Treatment and Disposal
Bissell Associates Project No. 1522.00
Dear Mr. Mouberry:
Please find enclosed three (3) copies of the revised plan for the
Kinnakeet Shores wastewater treatment plant. Revisions were made
at the request of Mr. Al Hodge of the NC Division of
Environmental Management, Water Quality Section.
The rotary distributors have been reoriented so as to provide \
maximum separation between the rotary distributors, the
surrounding interception ditch, and existing buildings north and
east of the plant.
Hydrologic modeling based on this revision will be performed by
Russnow, Kane & Andrews, Inc. and will be forwarded to you upon
completion.
Please contact us immediately if further information or
assistance is needed in order for you to grant approval by D.E.M.
Thank you.
Sincerely yours,
BIS SOCIATES
