Lagoon Surface Area (using dimensions at inside top of bank): 1, SI (acres) (Draw a sketch of the lagoon on a separate sheet:, list dimensions, and calculate surface area. The lagoon may have been built differently than designed, so measurements should be made.) G. Estimate number of sampling points: a. Less than 1.33 acres: Use 8 points. b. If more than 1.33 awes, i,,S i acres x 6 = �� with maximum of 24. (Using sketch and dimensions, develop a uniform grid that has the same number of intersections as the estimated number of sampling points needed. Number the Intersection points on the lagoon grid so that data recorded at each can be easily matched.) H. Conduct sludge survey and record data on "Sludge Survey Data Sheet" (Appendix 2). Also, at the location of the pump intake, take measurement of distance from liquid surface to top of sludge layer and record it on the Data Sheet (last row); this must be at least 2S ft when irrigating. I. At the time of the sludge survey, also m ire the distance from the Maximum Liquid Level to the Present Liquid Level (measure at the lagoon gauge pole): * J.
