Operation and Maintenance Plan
System Background
The wastewater treatment and disposal system is designed to treat the generated wastewater from
a winery. The system will consist of one (1) septic tank with effluent filter, two (2) Model 600 E-
Z Treat recirculating media filters (treatment units), one (1) E-Z Treat recirculation tank, one (1)
field dosing / storage tank, an ultraviolet disinfection unit, initial and repair irrigation fields with
sufficient spray field, and all the necessary appurtenances. The septic tank will receive the
wastewater by gravity flow as it leaves the dwelling. Once the wastewater fills the septic tank, it
will exit the septic tank by gravity through an effluent filter. The wastewater then enters the E-Z
Treat recirculation tank where it is pumped through the E-Z Treat treatment unit. The E-Z Treat
treatment unit removes additional BOD that were not removed in the septic tank and effluent filter.
The wastewater then flows by gravity into the E-Z Treat recirculation tank or is diverted to the
field dosing/storage tank by means of an effluent bypass valve. Wastewater flowing into the field
dosing/storage tank is treated by an ultraviolet disinfection unit prior to entering the tank. Each of
these treatment units are described in additional detail below.
Septic, E-Z Treat Recirculation, and Field Dosing / Storage Tanks:
The proposed wastewater treatment system will provide both anaerobic treatment for BOD,
nutrient and solids removal in the septic tank. This tank will be provided as specified on the
construction drawings, or approved equal by Engineer. The tank shall be previously approved by
the On -Site Water Protection Section. This tank shall provide greater than 2 days of detention
time providing for adequate anaerobic treatment and solids removal from the wastewater. The
septic tank will contain a Polylok, Simtech, or approved equal effluent filter to prevent solids from
reaching the E-Z Treat recirculation tank.
The E-Z Treat recirculation tank will be provided as specified on the construction drawings, or
approved equal by Engineer. Septic tank effluent will drain into the E-Z Treat recirculation tank.
Wastewater will be pumped from the E-Z recirculation tank onto the E-Z Treat treatment unit, and
the E-Z Treat treatment unit effluent will flow by gravity into the E-Z Treat recirculation tank or
the field dosing / storage tank. The field dosing/storage tank shall be provided as specified on the
construction drawings, or approved equal by Engineer. The effluent from the field dosing / storage
tank will be pumped to the spray irrigation fields.
The E-Z Treat recirculation and field storage/dosing tanks will be connected to audible and visible
high water alarms. These alarms will alert the operator when too much wastewater has
accumulated in the tanks so that he may turn on the pumps to empty the tank. If the property,
otherwise specified on the construction drawings, is served by a well system, water will not be
used during a power failure. A standby generator shall be provided if stated in the permit
statements.
Pumps:
There are four pumps within the wastewater treatment system. Two(2) E-Z Treat treatment unit
recirculation pump will be a Sta-Rite 1 hp pump (Catalog Number STEP 30). Two(2) spray field
dosing pump will be provided as specified on the construction drawings, or equivalent as approved

Surface Spray E-Z Treat System
MacConnell & Associates, P.C. Project No.: A66401.00 1

by the engineer. Both pumps will be connected to control panels. Pump efficiency shall be
monitored by recording the amperage supplied to the pump. A sudden decrease in efficiency will
indicate that the pump must be replaced. Pump replacement can be accomplished by disconnecting
pumps from the power supply and unscrewing them from the attached piping.
E-Z Treat Treatment Units:
The Model 600 E-Z Treat treatment units will be used to provide additional treatment to the septic
tank effluent as well as removing suspended solids not removed by the septic tank. The treatment
units will be housed in the container provided by E-Z Treat. The E-Z Treat treatment units will be
dosed by a Sta-Rite pump (Catalog Number STEP 30, 1 hp) with a distribution system placed
above the styrene media which will discharge onto the media. The underdrain system will
transport the E-Z Treat treatment unit effluent back into the recirculation or field dosing / storage
tank.
Ultraviolet Disinfection Unit:
The ultraviolet disinfection unit will be used to treat the E-Z Treat treatment unit effluent before it
reaches the field dosing / storage tank. The ultraviolet disinfection unit shall be E-Z Treat ( Model
E-Z UV 102) or approved equal by engineer.
Rain Sensor:
A Hunter Mini-Clik rain sensor shall be installed adjacent to the hydraulic unit in an area that will
receive precipitation (i.e. that is not covered by trees). The sensor will only be used for the spray
irrigation pump to cease operations during wet conditions. The field dosing / storage tank will
store the treated wastewater for more than five days; however, it may be necessary to override the
control system following large precipitation events if the tank is above capacity. During wet
conditions, the sensor will send a signal to the pump controls to inactivate the pump. If it becomes
necessary to release wastewater from the tank, the Mini-Clik may be turned off and the pump
switched on manually.
Sprav Irrigation Svstem:
The spray irrigation fields will be dosed by the field dosing pump. The spray field zoning criteria
and spray heads shall follow as specified on the construction drawings. All zones shall operate
independently. Each spray head shall maintain at a minimum of the pressure specified in the
manufacturer's literatures.
Crop Maintenance and Management:
The spray area should be planted with a fescue, rye, or Bermuda grass as needed in compacted
areas. Wooded field can remain wooded. The spray field vegetation shall be maintained as
described in the Operation and Maintenance Tasks table. Soil shall be analyzed for proper dosage
of fertilizer for maximum crop performance and to maintain the spray area over the long term.
The wastewater applied to the trees or grass (if needed) will provide ample moisture and nutrients
to promote plant growth.

Surface Spray E-Z Treat System
MacConnell & Associates, P.C. Project No.: A66401.00 2

System Operation
The wastewater treatment system is designed to dose the E-Z Treat treatment unit every 14 minutes
to 20 minutes with 34 gallons of septic tank effluent. If less than 34 gallons of wastewater is
available, the low level signal will inactivate the pump. The control panel will activate the field
dosing pump and associated control valve to dose the spray field. Flow to the spray field is
designed for a maximum dose as shown on the construction drawings. The volume dosed is
controlled by the "run time" set on the dose run/rest interval timer for each zone. The pump will
de -energize if the low water level "pump off' float is activated. The flow meter installed in the
hydraulic unit will track the volume of wastewater irrigated.
If the high water level "alarm" float switch is activated, the system will energize the audible and
flashing alarm fixtures. Once energized, the flashing and audible alarm units may only reset
manually. If the alarm light begins flashing after being reset, it means that either there is a clog in
the system or the pump has failed. This may be corrected by simply pressing the reset button. If
this doesn't energize the pump, the wet well will have to be opened and the pump removed to
check for deficiencies or an object that may be clogging the system. If there are no obvious flaws
on the pump itself and no objects inside the pump tank, restore the pump and try resetting it again.
If the pump still does not work, contact the pump manufacturer.
Both the E-Z Treat treatment unit(s) and spray irrigation pump controls shall include, but not be
limited to an "auto/manual" system control switch, stop/start switch, non-resetable elapsed time
recorder for each pump, and individual pump run lights. Both pump control panels shall contain
NEMA 4X enclosures. All supporting control units, if not housed within the pump control panels,
shall be in a separate NEMA 4X enclosure.
No heavy traffic shall be driven over the treatment units or spray fields at any time. Access to the
spray fields shall be restricted by a wooden or wire fence to ensure that only the operator is allowed
to enter the area. This access to the irrigation area is restricted in order to protect the health and
safety of people. It is important that the spray area in non -wooded or compacted areas be seeded
with grasses or trees to establish vegetation. The vegetation will absorb any nutrients remaining
in the treated wastewater, and the treated wastewater will promote the growth of the vegetation.
The vegetation will need to be maintained so that it does not interfere with the performance of the
spray irrigation system.
The owner/user shall prohibit garbage disposal from draining into the septic system to protect the
treatment equipment and ensure quality wastewater treatment.
System Maintenance
To ensure a smooth operating system, regular maintenance shall be performed on each treatment
unit. The maintenance for each unit is detailed on the plans and is displayed in the following table.
Further system maintenance information shall refer to the manufacturer's literatures.

The septic and re -circulation tank shall be
inspected annually to ensure they are oper-
ating properly. Remove the access covers
over the tank openings to perform the
inspection.
1. Verify the lid and riser assemblies are
watertight. Check for any damaged, water
weeping marks, holes or cracks. The system
must remain watertight to perform properly.
2. Remove, clean and replace the outlet
effluent filter in accordance with the
instructions provided by the effluent filter
manufacturer.
3. Inspect the liquid level in the septic tank,
it should be level with the bottom of the
outlet pipe.
4. Inspect the effluent and scum layers in
the septic tank. Look for oil or any other
contaminants that are not normal.
5. Verify the tank has received its scheduled
pumping and cleaning. Check the solids
layer in each of the tanks. If the solids layer
is excessive have the tank pumped.

7. Verify the floats are operational by manually
raising and lowering the floats to simulate
the systems normal operation. Verify proper
operation of "High Level Float" by lifting
the float while the system T is in the "OFF"
time mode, the re -circulation pump should
turn on over riding the "OFF" timer, the
Visual and Audible alarms should activate.
Return the float to its normal position the
re -circulation pump will turn off. Reset the
alarms and manually lower the "Low Water
Float" with the timer in the "ON' mode, the
re -circulation pump will turn off and the
visual/audible alarms will activate. Return
the float to the normal position and the
re -circulation pump will run. Reset the
alarms.
8. Properly re -install and secure all tank
accesses!
The E-Z Treat Re -circulating Synthetic Filter should be inspected to ensure it is operating
properly. Remove the pod cover to perform this inspection. Each E-Z Treat system should be
installed with a sample box located on the final discharge side of the treatment system, this
sample box is ideal for grab samples. If the installer failed to install a sample box grab samples
can be taken from the pump discharge tank. Many state regulations include instructions for
taking grab samples those rules and procedures supersede E-Z Treat.
1. Take a grab sample of the effluent check for:
a. Odor, the effluent may have an earthy
or musty smell there should be no
strong or offensive odors present.
b. Color, the effluent should be clear and
absent of any color.
c. Solids, there should be no visible
suspended solids
d. Solids, let sample set for 15 minutes,
there should be no visible settling of
solids.
e. Test the pH, it should measure 6.9 to 7.5
If there is odor, color or solids clean the media
If the pH is below 6.9 reduce the re -circulation
rate by increasing to "OFF" time on the Time
Clock Control. Recheck the pH in 90 days.
Call: 703.753.4770 or visit: eztreat.net
2.Observe the spray distribution nozzles
during operation. If a nozzle appears to
be clogged or if the spray pattern is not
uniform, remove the nozzle and clean the
nozzle using a pipe stem cleaning brush.
3. Record the pressure reading on the dis-
tribution manifold gauge. Compare that
pressure to the pressure recorded at the
previous inspection. The pressure should
read 18 to 25 PSI.
a. Verify the pressure gauge on the spray
distribution manifold is performing
properly.
b. Verify the flow rate at the spray nozzles
(it should be 1.75 to 2 GPM).
c. Verify the re -circulation pump is the
same make and model pump that was
specified for the original installation.

2.5 Cleaning the Filter Media
c. Black color on media (media should have
light brown tint)
d. Excessive bio mat growth
e. Ponding
f. Clumping of the media.
Note: If any of these conditions exist the
media needs to be cleaned.
Depending upon influent strength and influent volumes, excessive biological growth can
accumulate inside and on the surface of the media filter after 7 to 10 years of use.
Cleaning of the media is a very simple and easy 10-step process:
Step 1: Turnoff power to any discharge pump.
Step 2: Remove the treatment pod cover and remove the spray distribution manifold.
Step 3: Connect wash down hose to the main spray distribution supply line.
Step 4: Manually turn on the re -circulation pump.
Step 5: Pressure wash the surface of the media mattress, the wash water will drain into the
re -circulation tank and will be re -used as wash water.
Step 6: Roll the media mattress and wash the sides and bottom of the media mattress.
Step 7: After the media is completely cleaned properly place the media mattress in the
treatment pod.
Step 8: Re -Install the spray distribution manifold.
Step 9: Pump out and clean the re -circulation tank removing all the wash down water.
Pump out the septic tank.
Step 10: Turn on power to discharge system and return the treatment system
from "Manual" mode to "Automatic" mode.

2.6 Replacement of Media Mattress
If the filter media is exposed to excessive concentrations of petroleum products, paints, glues,
waxes etc. it will become necessary to replace the media. The replacement process it is a very
fast and simple. Removing the media mattress should be performed by service agents that are
trained and certified by E-Z Treat Company.
Step 2: Turnoff power to re -circulation pump, discharge pump and controls.
Step 2: Pump the septic tank and re -circulation tank to assure continued service by residence
during the replacement.
Step 3: Remove the spray distribution manifold.
Step 4: Lift the media mattress out of the filter pod.
Step 5: Place the mattress into the fiberglass transport container provided by E-Z Treat
Company. The container is easily hauled in a pickup truck or on a light duty trailer.
Step 6: Install new filter media and replace distribution manifold.
Step 7: Reset all system control settings to "AUTO" and turn the main power switch to the
"ON" position.
Once the mattress is returned to E-Z Treat Company, the styrene material will be sent to the
