We understand that the camp operates during the summer months of June, July, and August, and is closed during the balance of the year. The campers Site in onsite housing and are fed by an onsite kitchen. Wastewater from the kitchen and bathhouse is treated and disposed of via a conventional septic tank and gravity fed drainfield. Lately, the drainfield had shown signs of stress during the latter part of the camp season. The directors of the camp are proposing to add additional wastewater treatment and disposal capacity by installing another wastewater treatment system (WWS) that uses pretreatment, disinfection, and surface drip irrigation disposal. Site Location, Topography, and Drainage The camp is located on a ridgetop site with northwest and southeast aspects. It is bordered on the west by the French Broad River and on the south by Brush Creek. Side slopes on the property are greater than 50 percent in locations. The portion of the camp proposed for location of the WWS is on the southwestern portion of the property, on a wooded sideslope position. The average slope of the site is 38% as measured by Mr. Steve Neas, P.E. This location has a northwestern aspect. Site erosion and apparent tree age seems to imply that the trees were removed at some time in the past. Site drainage appears to be generally to the west and south toward the French Broad River and Brush Creek. Published Soils Information A soil survey report for Madison County has not been published at this time, however, most, if not all, of the county has been mapped by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (MRCS). Information about the subject site soils was obtained from Mr. Mark Hudson, LSS, Madison County Soil Survey Party Leader. Mr. Hudson provided a copy of the field soil map and a copy of the Madison County soil survey map unit legend. NRCS mapping indicates that the soil on the proposed WWS site are of the Soco-Stecoah complex (375D, 15 to 30 percent slopes) and Sylco-Soco complex (385E, 30 to 50 percent slopes, stony). A soil complex is by definition, a map unit of two or more kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate pattern or so small in area that it is not practical to map them separately at the selected scale of mapping. Published soil description of the three soil series present in the complex units are attached for reference. _ y ,4 a VLA Soil Scientist's Report for Camp Glory Ridge WWS I Marshall, North Carolina Page 2 Site Soil Observations Hand auger borings were made for the purpose of confirming the NRCS mapping. The borings were made to auger refusal. Auger refusal was met at depths of 18 to about 36+ inches. Stone fragments were common on the soil surface and throughout the soil profile. Parent material that could be penetrated by hand auger was also common. In general, the soils encountered were those mapped by the MRCS. Soils resembling the Soco series were most common. As mentioned previously, rock fragments (channers) were common on and in the soil. The soil solurn depth was usually about 24 inches. The surface soils are commonly dark grayish brown loam or fine sandy loam. The subsurface soils are loam and fine sandy loam in colors of brown and yellowish brown. Mica flakes were common. The parent material could be penetrated by hand auger for depth of 18 to 36 inches, in places. Soil moisture was highest near the lithic or paralithic contact. Field soil profile descriptions are attached for reference. Published soils information indicates that the permeability of the Soco and Stecoah soils is 2.0 to 6.0 in./hr and 0.6 to 2.0 in./hr in the Sylco soils. Our observations indicate that the permeability of the site soils should be about 2.0 in./hr in the solum. The permeability of the parent material is likely much slower. The shallowdepth of soil, the apparent slow permeability of the parent material, and the slope of the site likely results m lateral water movement off of the site. Conclusions and Recommendations The soils on the site appear to be suitable for the purpose intended. It is recommended that the drip irrigation field be configured to be long and narrow, installed along the contour of the site. This will spread the treated wastewater along the slope, taking advantage of the lateral water movement that is apparently the major route of water off of the site, without hydraulically overloading the lower portions of the drip field. While the Hydrologic Budget indicates that the soils should be capable of absorbing 3 per of wastewater peg week, we recommendthat the application rate not exceed 1.25 inches er week. The natural vegetation and the site soils should not be disturbed during installation of the drip tubing. Conservative design and the limited time that the camp operates should result in a successful low -maintenance system. FIELD SOIL PROFILE DESCRIPTIONS SOIL PROFILE DATA SHEET Page No. J a Ll HYDROLOGIC BUDGET REPORT �L ii HYDROLOGIC BUDGET DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM CAMP GLORY RIDGE WALNUT, NORTH CAROLINA Introduction A characterization of soil water movement is necessary for the design of a land treatment system in order to establish the maximum allowable application rate for wastewater. The wastewater application rate is best estimated by developing a monthly hydrologic budget ("water balance"). During land treatment, all applied wastewater must infiltrate the soil surface. The only pathways by which wastewater may leave the site are through evapotranspiration and percolation of the wastewater into the soil. The hydrologic balance for a land treatment system can be expressed as the relationship: P+W=Et+S where the inputs into the system, precipitation (P) and wastewater (W), are equal to the outputs, evapotranspiration (Et) and percolation (S). Each factor in the equation is briefly discussed below. Precipitation (Pl The design precipitation used is the thirty year average precipitation. The thirty year average precipitation is, as the term implies, the average precipitation developed from thirty years of precipitation data collected at or near the subject site. The design precipitation used for this project was developed from data collected at the North Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station at Marshall, North Carolina during the period 1961 to 1990 (USDA-NRCS). The precipitation data used for design calculations are presented in Table 1. Wastewater (W) This term of the equation is dependent on the other three. The volume of wastewater that can be applied to a land treatment site is dependent on the volume of water introduced into the system through precipitation and the movement of water out of the system through evapotranspiration and percolation. This term usually determines the size (area) of the land treatment site. The design wastewater flow for this project is 2000 gal/day and the proposed wastewater application rate is 1.25 in/ac/week. Hydrologic Budget for Camp Glory Ridge WWS Marshall, North Carolina Page 2 Evapotranspiration (Et) Evapotranspiration (or consumptive use) is the total water lost through evaporation from all surface water, soil, snow, ice, vegetative surfaces, etc., plus transpiration from site vegetation. It is site specific and subject to change with changing site conditions and season. Potential or expected evapotranspiration is the water loss that would occur when there is an adequate moisture supply at all times and the site is fully vegetated. The design evapotranspiration was measured by the North Carolina Agricultural Station at Asheville, North Carolina (Hardy and Hardy,1971). The evapotranspiration data used for design calculation are presented in Table 2. Percolation (P) The rate of water percolation through the soil profile is determined by the most limiting subsurface soil layer. The best data to use in land treatment system design is usually obtained by measuring the saturated hydraulic conductivity (Kt) of the site soils in the field. Published permeability data may also be used successfully if supported by field observations and a conservative approach in setting the wastewater application rate. Permeability data were obtained for use in this project from the Iowa State University web site, http://Www.statlab.iastate.edulcgi-binlosdlosdnarne.cgi?-P (USDA-NRCS, 2001). The soils on the proposed land treatment site are reported by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) to be Soco-Stecoah complex (375D, 15 to 30 percent slopes) and Sylco-Soco complex (385E, 30 to 50 percent slopes, stony). Hand auger borings were made in the location proposed for the location of the drip irrigation field to confirm the NRCS information. The soils encountered resembled the published soil descriptions. The NRCS reports that the Kit for the Soco and Stecoah soils is 2.0 to 6.0 in/hr and that the K ,, for the Sylco soils is 0.6 to 2.0 in/hr (Table 3). Hydrologic Budget As explained earlier, the hydrologic budget or "water balance" calculations take into account water addition by wastewater application and precipitation and water loss through Loading ANIIiL is the Hydraulic axunum) evapotranspiration and percolation. The Adjusted Mg ( maximum volume of water that may be applied on the land treatment site soils based on the adjusted hydraulic conductivity. The USEPA recommends the use of a reduction factor in calculations of the design percolation rate for a land treatment system (USEPA, 1981). The reduction factor is used to promote long-term infiltration and percolation by limiting wastewater application. Using a permeability reduction factor (RD), the AMHL is calculated by: AMHL = (Kst) (RD) (operating days/week) (24 hr/day) The reduction factor adjusts the site soil permeability taking into account the inevitable loss of E soil permeability that results from long-term wastewater application. The recommended reduction factor is 4% to 10% of the saturated hydraulic conductivity. A reduction factor of 4% was chosen for use in this project for conservative design. The AMHL for the subject site is presented in Table 4. WA Hydrologic Budget for Camp Glory Ridge WWS Marshall, North Carolina Page 3 The Maximum Wastewater Loading (MWWL) is the maximum amount of wastewater, based the AMHL, evapotranspiration and precipitation, that can be applied on the subject site. The MWWL is calculated by: MWWL (in/ac/wk) = [AMHL (in/ac/mo) + Et (in/mo) - 30th Percentile Ppt. (in/mo)] / Weeks/Month The hydrologic budgets for the two soil permeability conditions present on the subject site are presented for comparison in Table 5 and Table 6. Conclusions and Recommendations The results of the Hydrologic Budget calculations indicate that the site soils are capable of receiving a weekly wastewater loading of at least 3.3 in./acre/week. Based on our observations of the site and soil conditions, however, we recommend that the weekly wastewater loading not exceed 1.25 in/ac/week. That is because of the shallow soil conditions and relatively steep slopes. Hydrologic Budget for Camp Glory Ridge WWS Marshall, North Carolina Page 4 Table 1.

SALISBURY STREET RALQGH. NC 27603-i909 (Revised Juh• 1994) , j f. 4 _ k PERM',' Camp Glory Ridge Goldsmith Circle Road Marshall, North Carolina Surface Drip Irrigation System Narrative Description The proposed treatment system will consist, in general, of a 2,000 gallon septic tank with effluent filter, 1,200 gallon per day EnviroFilterTM, tablet type chlorination unit with contact chamber, 2,000 gallon dose tank, drip field dosing pumps and 6,280 feet of drip tubing, flush return tank and flush return pumps. Wastewater from the bathhouse and kitchen enters the septic tank where the solids are separated by gravity and biodegradation begins. After an approximately 2-day detention (based on tank volume) the wastewater flows through the effluent filter to the EnviroFilterTM pre-treatment unit. The pre-treatment unit includes a recirculation basin and a dosing basin within one fiberglass tank. Wastewater enters the recirculation basin of the pre-treatment unit. The recirculation pump is controlled through an HOA switch, pressure sensing level switch and a timer through a programmable logic controller (PLC). If sufficient water is present in the recirculation basin the pump will cycle on and off to periodically irrigate the media. This maintains an aerobic environment within the media. Approximately 50% of the irrigated wastewater is returned to the recirculation basin during each cycle. The balance of the wastewater passes through the media into the dosing basin. During peak flow conditions the PLC will override the timer and will operate the recirculation pump until the level drops below the programmed override depth. If the level continues to rise or if the pump runs for an extended period, the audible and visual alarm will be activated. The discharge pump is also controlled through an HOA switch, pressure sensing level switch and a'timer through a programmable logic controller (PLC). If sufficient water is present in the dosing basin, the pump will operate during the programmed clock time. The discharge pump is programmed to operate 24-times per day for approximately 6 minutes to provide a 50 gallon discharge per cycle. During peak flow conditions the PLC will override the timer and will operate the discharge pump until the level drops below the programmed override depth. If the level continues to rise or if the pump runs for an extended period, the audible and visual alarm will be activated. The treated wastewater then flows by gravity through the chlorination unit and contact chamber and to the dosing tank. Flow from the EnviroFilterTM discharge pump is controlled by a restriction plate to insure a minimum 15-minute detention time in the contact chamber. Additional contact time is provided within the dose tank. The dose pumps are controlled through HOA switches, pump authorize level switch and programmable logic controller (PLC). Under normal operating conditions the pumps will dose the drip irrigation fields alternately every hour for approximately 3.6 minutes to provide an approximate 49 gallon dose per cycle. During wet conditions, a soil wetness sensor (gypsum block) will prevent the pump from operation. The tank is sized to allow up F1 11 LJ Camp Glory Ridge Narrative Description HEA Project 03-1014 Page 2 to 1.42 days of effluent storage. The pump authorize level switch assures that a complete dose is provided to the drip irrigation field. The pump -on demand level switch is provided to dose the current field in the event of a peak flow. If the water rises to a level associated with this switch, the pump will operate for the normal cycle. A high-level switch is provided as a back-up to the normal dosing circuits. If activated the switch illuminates a red warning strobe, audible alarm, and starts both pumps on a normal pumping cycle. A pump shut-off switch is provided to prevent the pump from being exposed. Wastewater is pumped through the VortexTM particle filters and then to the drip irrigation tubing where it is discharged through the emitters to the soil. Pressure indicators are provided to monitor each pump. A totalizing flow meter is provided to record the total discharge from each pump. Valves are provided throughout the system for maintenance and to obtain water samples used to monitor system efficiencies. A electrically actuated valve is provided to allow periodic flushing of the drip irrigation tubing. The PLC will initiate flushing of the drip tubing for 15-seconds following each dose cycle. Additional flushing of the system, if required, may be accomplished through the use of manually operated valves. Air release/vacuum breaker valves are provided on each of the drip irrigation manifolds as shown on the plan. l 791 t I e 4 FROM BATHHOUSE 11 KITCHEN - L 202 4 200 HAGGETT ENGINEERIWAGGETT SCALE: NONE 5307 SOUTH COL DNH WILMINGTON, NORTH i SFH JOB: 03-1014 PHONE: (910) FILE: 31014P1.dwg FAX: (910) 3!
