| 1These conditions are also suitable for subsurface trench pressure distribution on-site sewage systems. | ||||||
| 2For subsurface trench systems, if the distance from trench bottom to seasonal high water table is less than twenty-four (24) inches, drainage must be installed in accordance with section 59 of this rule. For elevated sand mound systems, if the depth of the seasonal high water table is less than twenty (20) inches below the ground surface, drainage must be installed in accordance with section 59 of this rule. | ||||||
| 3See Sections 58(a)(2)(E), 70(b)(6), 71(b)(3)(B), 71(c)(3)(B), 71(d)(2)(B) and 72(b)(5). | ||||||
| This chart does not include considerations such as the specific landscape features that must be met, the size of the soil absorption system, the size of the area necessary for construction of the soil absorption system on the contour with necessary setback and separation distances, dispersal area, the diversion of surface drainage, the feasibility of subsurface drainage, the ability to obtain easements, etc. | ||||||
| This chart does not take into consideration the necessity to pump the effluent to overcome differences in elevation (when a subsurface trench gravity system might otherwise be constructed). | ||||||
