Re: Homestead Village Mobile Home Park
Lot 89 &90 Alpine
Dear John:
On August 17, 2011 our office inspected the above referenced Homestead Village Mobile Home
Park lots. The purpose of this visit was to observe the installation of the new septic system
designed by EDP dated July 25, 2011.
Based on my review of the plans and observation of the installation it is my opinion that the
system was installed substantially in compliance with the intent of the design plans.
Please contact me should you have any questions regarding this system.
Sincerely,
James E. Mitchell, P.E.

CONSTRUCTION NOTES:
1) CONSTRUCTION OF ABSORPTION FACILITIES SHALL NOT OCCUR WHEN THE GROUND IS FROZEN OR
THE SOIL MOISTURE CONTENT IS HIGH, IF A FRAGMENT OF SOIL FROM APPROXIMATELY NINE INCHES
BELOW THE SURFACE CAN EASILY BE ROLLED INTO A RIBBON INSTEAD OF CRUMBLING, THE
MOISTURE CONTENT IS TOO HIGH FOR CONSTRUCTION PURPOSES. OBVIOUSLY, SOME SILT OR CLAY
MUST BE PRESENT FOR A RIBBON TO BE FORMED.
2) TRENCH LOCATIONS AND DEPTHS SHOULD BE MARKED BY STAKES BEFORE TRENCHES ARE
EXCAVATED. THE NATURAL SURFACE SHALL NOT BE SIGNIFICANTLY DISTURBED. IF THE SITE IS
REGRADED OR SIMILARLY DISTURBED, THE SOIL SHALL BE ALLOWED TO STABILIZE (I.E., SETTLE
NATURALLY FOR A PERIOD OF AT LEAST SIX MONTHS, INCLUDING AT LEAST ONE FREEZE—THAW
CYCLE) AND NEW PERCOLATION AND DEEP HOLE TESTS CONDUCTED. HEAVY EQUIPMENT USE IN THE
DESIGNATED ABSORPTION SYSTEM AREA SHOULD BE MINIMIZED TO PREVENT SOIL PERMEABILITY
REDUCTION DUE TO COMPACTION PLUS POSSIBLE TRENCH CAVE—IN AND DISTRIBUTION PIPE
MISALIGNMENT/BREAKAGE.
3) AFTER A FINAL GRADE CHECK, TRENCH EXCAVATION MAY BEGIN. TRENCH DEPTH SHALL BE AS
SHALLOW AS POSSIBLE, BUT NOT LESS THAN 18 INCHES. TRENCHES SHALL BE EXCAVATED TO
DESIGN DEPTH WITH BOTTOMS PRACTICALLY LEVEL.
4) FOLLOWING EXCAVATION, THE TRENCH BOTTOMS SHOULD BE GRADED BY HAND. THE BOTTOMS OF
THE TRENCHES SHOULD BE CHECKED BY A TRANSIT, ENGINEER'S LEVEL, OR CARPENTER'S LEVEL TO
ASSURE THAT EACH IS PRACTICALLY LEVEL. TRENCH BOTTOMS AND SIDEWALLS SHOULD BE
IMMEDIATELY RAKED AFTER FINAL GRADING AND AT LEAST SIX INCHES OF AGGREGATE PLACED IN
THE TRENCHES.
5) GRAVITY DISTRIBUTOR PIPE SHALL BE CAREFULLY INSTALLED AT A SLOPE OF tis TO Y32 INCH PER
FOOT. PRESSURE OR DOSED DISTRIBUTOR PIPE SHALL BE INSTALLED LEVEL. GRADES SHALL BE
DETERMINED BY AN ENGINEER'S LEVEL, TRANSIT OR CARPENTER'S LEVEL. AN EASY METHOD OF
MEASURING THE Y16 INCH PER FOOT SLOPE FOR DISTRIBUTOR PIPE IS TO TAPE A Y4 INCH BLOCK TO
ONE END OF A STRAIGHT FOUR FOOT BOARD. BY PLACING THE BLOCKED END WITH THE BLOCK
FACING DOWN ON THE DOWNSTREAM TOP OF THE DISTRIBUTOR PIPE, A CARPENTER'S LEVEL CAN BE
USED TO DETERMINE THE lie INCH PER FOOT SLOPE. A Ys INCH BLOCK SIMILARLY USED WOULD
RESULT IN A Y32 INCH PER FOOT SLOPE. ANOTHER METHOD USED TO ESTABLISH THE GRADE OF
DISTRIBUTOR PIPE IS BY BATTER BOARDS. AGGREGATE SHALL BE INSTALLED IN THE TRENCHES TO
A DEPTH OF AT LEAST TWO INCHES ABOVE THE TOP OF THE 17ISTRIBUTOR PIPES. ADDITIONAL
AGGREGATE MAY BE REQUIRED TO BRING THE TOP OF THE AGGREGATE TO WITHIN SIX TO 12 INCHES
OF FINAL GRADE.
6) AFTER THE UPPER AGGREGATE IS PLACED IN THE TRENCHES, THE GEOTEXTILE, UNTREATED BUILDING
PAPER, HAY OR STRAW IS TO BE IMMEDIATELY INSTALLED ON THE AGGREGATE AND THE TRENCH
BACKFILLED WITH EXCAVATED SOIL. IF THE TRENCHES CANNOT BE IMMEDIATELY BACKFILLED, THE
TRENCHES SHOULD BE TEMPORARILY COVERED WITH AN IMPERVIOUS MATERIAL, SUCH AS TREATED
BUILDING PAPER TO PREVENT SIDEWALL COLLAPSE AND SILTATION INTO THE AGGREGATE.
7) THE EARTH BACKFILL IS TO BE MOUNDED SLIGHTLY ABOVE THE ORIGINAL GROUND LEVEL (I:E., NOT
COMPACTED) TO ALLOW FOR SETTLING. FOLLOWING SETTLEMENT, THE ENTIRE AREA SHOULD BE
GRADED WITHOUT THE USE OF HEAVY EQUIPMENT AND SEEDED WITH GRASS. HEAVY EQUIPMENT
SHALL NOT ENTER THE ABSORPTION FACILITY AREA OR THE PROPOSED EXPANSION AREA AFTER THE
SUBSURFACE SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEM HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED.
8) A MINIMUM HORIZONTAL SEPARATION OF 10 FEET SHOULD EXIST BETWEEN THE HOUSE SEWER AND
ANY WATERLIN7'WHERE LINES MUST CROSS, THE WATER SERVICE LINE SHALL BE AT LEAST 12
INCHES ABOVE THE HOUSE SEWER. IF A WATER LINE MUST PASS BELOW THE HOUSE SEWER, THE
VERTICAL SEPARATION MUST BE AT LEAST 18 INCHES.
9) ROOF, FOOTING, GARAGE, CELLAR AND SURFACE WATER DRAINAGE MUST BE EXCLUDED FROM THE
SYSTEM. WATER SOFTENER, WATER RECHARGE AND BACKWASH WASTES NORMALLY ARE NOT TO BE
DISCHARGED TO THE SYSTEM UNLESS A SEPARATE SUBSURFACE DISCHARGE TO AN AREA 250 FEET
FROM WELLS OR WATER COURSES IS UNAVAILABLE.
