Fie: 28 Cedar Lane, North Andover, Septic system design 9
Rear Sandra:
r -
Enclosed are revised septic system design plans for the above referenced properly. The
fallowing revisions have been made.
A. The house has been noted as not having a foundation drain.
u/2. The connect pipe ends note in the profile has been modified to indicate the use of
solid pipe.
"3. The percolation test elevation has been added.
,,A. A swale detail has been added along the house to indicate haw the water will drain
from around the house.
5. The existing system location has been added to the plans.
One other issue you wanted addressed is the reduction in offset distance to the water table
request. Several facts were examined by this office while determining if the reduction
was warranted. In order to maintain a 5 foot separation in the offset to the water table a
pump system would have to be designed. Also, the site is sloping and the water table
slopes with the site as indicated by the test pit information so at least half of the system
has a water table offset approaching 5 foct or greater. It is the opinion of this office that
the installation of a pump system in lieu of a gravity system poses a greater:maintenance
responsibility. The potential of a problem with the system that would result in a public
health threat would outweigh any minute amount of increased treatment that would be
gained by raising the entire system one foot.
This plan is being submitted for approval. If you have any questions regarding the
information submitted, please do not hesitate to contact this office.
