FOR ALL SYSTEMS TYPICAL SEWAGE DISPOSAL SEPARATION SCHEMATIC '.:: ' NOT TO SCALE Septic Tanks 1. Septic tank covers shall always be accessible. Where man holes are more than 12 inches below final grade, an extension collar shall be provided over each opening. Extension collars shall not be brought flush with the ground surface unless the cover can be locked to prevent tampering. Driveways or other facilities shall not be constructed above septic tanks unless specially designed and reinforced to safely carry the load imposed. 2. Design and installation. A. General Requirements. The following applies to all septic tanks regardless of material. a. A minimum liquid depth of 30 inches. The maximum depth for determining the allowable design volume of a tank shall be 60 inches. Deeper tanks provide extra sludge storage, but no credit shall be given toward design volume, b. The minimum distance between the inlet and outlet shall be six feet. All tanks shall meet the minimum surface area requirement for the specific design volume. c. The effective length of rectangular tanks should not be less than two nor greater than four times the effective width. d. Tanks must be watertight, constructed of durable material not subject to corrosion, decay, frost damage, or cracking. After installation all septic tanks shall be able to support fro g g p at least 300 pounds per square foot (psf). i e. Tanks with a liquid depth of 48 inches or more shall have a top opening with a minimum of 20 inches in the shortest dimension to allow entry into the tank. Tanks with a liquid depth less than 48 inches shall have a top opening that is at least 12 inches in the shortest dimension. f. Tanks shall have inlet and outlet baffles, sanitary tees or other devices to prevent the passage of floating solids and to minimize disturbance of settled sludge and floating scum by sewage entering and leaving the tank. Outlet designs such as gas deflection baffles are strongly recommended in all tanks. Inlet and outlet baffles shall extend a minimum of 12 inches and 14 inches respectively, below the liquid level in tanks with a liquid depth of less than 40 inches, and 16 and 18 inches respectively, in tanks with a liquid depth of 40 inches or greater. The distance between the outlet baffle and the outlet shall not exceed six inches. Baffles shall be constructed of a durable material not subject to corrosion, decay or cracking. g. There shall be a minimum of one inch clearance between the underside of the top of the tank and the top of all baffles, partition and/or tees to permit venting of tank gases. Multi- chamber and multi -tank systems shall also be designed to permit the venting of tank gases. h. Tanks shall be placed on at least a three inch bed of sand or pea gravel. This will provide for proper leveling and bearing. Additional instructions provided by the manufacturer shall also be followed. i. There shall be a minimum drop in elevation of two inches between the inverts of the inlet and outlet pipes. j. Garbage grinders. An additional 250 gallons of capacity and seven square feet of surface area is required when a garbage grinder can reasonably be expected at the time of construction or in the future. A gas deflection baffle or other occeptobie outlet modification, and a dual compartment tank or two tanks in series must also be provided. B. Multi -compartment tanks or tanks in series. a. Dual compartments are recommended for all tanks and shall be required on all tanks with an interior length of ten feet or more. b. The first compartment or tank (inlet side) shall account for 60 - 7590 of the required total design volume. c. The baffle separating the compartments shall extend from the bottom of the tank to at least six inches above the invert of the outlet pipe. d. Compartments shall be connected by a four inch vertical slot at least 18 inches in width, a six inch elbow, or two 4 -inch elbows located at a distance below the liquid level equal to one-third the distance between the invert of the outlet and the bottom of the tank. At least one access manhole shall be provided into each compartment. e. Tanks in series should be connected by a single pipe with a minimum diameter of four inches. f. The volume and surface area for meeting the requirements of the design shall be based upon the total volume and surface areas of all the tanks and chambers to be installed. C. Concrete tanks. a. Concrete shall have a minimum compressive strength of 2,500 pounds per square inch (psi) at 28 days set; 3,000 psi concrete is recommended as a minimum. b. Wall thickness shall be a minimum of three inches unless the design has been certified by a New York licensed professional engineer as complying with all appropriate requirements for thin-wall construction. All walls, bottom and top shall contain reinforcing to assure support for 300 psf. c. All joints shall be sealed such that the tank is watertight; joints below the liquid Level must be tested for watertightness prior to backfilling. d. The walls and floor of cast -in-place tanks shall be poured at the some time (monolithic pour). D. Fiberglass and polyethylene tanks. These tanks must meet the following additional requirements: a. These tanks shall not be installed in areas where the groundwater level can rise to the level of the bottom of the septic tank. b. Particular care must be taken during installation, bedding, and backfilling of these units so as to prevent damage to tank walls. The manufacturer's installation instructions shall be followed. c. All tanks should be sold by the manufacturer completely assembled. If, because of size, the tank is delivered to the site in sections, all joints shall be sealed with watertight gaskets and shall be tested for watertightness after installation, and prior to backfilling. 2" TOPSOIL MOUND FOR SETTLING LANDSCAPE FABRIC, STRAW OR GEOTEXTILE MEMBRANE 4" DISTRIBUTOR PIPE - 6'-0" O.C.

T. S. 1. ENDS OF ALL DISTRIBUTOR PIPES MUST BE CAPPED OR PLUGGED 2. ALL LATERALS TO BE OF EQUAL LENGTH. House Sewer 1. House sewers are laid on firm foundation at a minimum grade of one-quarter inch per foot preferably without bends. At least one cleanout with a properly fitted plug is to be provided. The house sewer shall allow for venting of gases from the sewage system. 2. House sewer construction including materials shall comply with the applicable requirements of the State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code contained in 9 NY6RR, Parts 903 through 907, inclusive, and Part 1250. 3. A minimum horizontal separation of 10 feet should exist between the house sewer and any water line. Where lines must cross, the water service line shall be at least 12inches above the house sewer. If a water line must pass below the house sewer, the vertical separation must be at least 18 inches. 4. Suction waterlines shall never cross under house sewers or any other component of the sewage system. Distribution Devices 1. Gravity Distribution. The maximum length of absorption lines used in conjunction with gravity distribution shall be 60 feet. A. Distribution Box. a. For accessibility, it is necessary that the distribution box be located and have a removable cover not more than 12 inches below grade. Where, due to site conditions, a distribution box must be greater than 12 inches below the surface, on extension collar shall be installed to within 12 inches of the surface. b. All outlets from the distribution box shall be at the some level to insure the even distribution of flow. c. To minimize frost action and reduce the possibility of movement once installed, distribution boxes must be set on a bed of sand or pea gravel at least 12 inches thick. d. The drop between inlet and outlet inverts shall be at least two inches. A baffle is required at the inlet side of the box when the slope from the septic tank to the box exceeds 1/2 inch per foot or when siphon dosing is used. e. There shall be a minimum two inch clearance between the inverts of the outlets and the bottom of the box to prevent short-circuiting and reduce solids carry-over. f. Distribution boxes may be constructed in place or purchased prefabricated. When concrete is used to construct boxes, it shall have a minimum compressive strength of 2,500 psi at 28 day set. g. Prefabricated boxes may be constructed of concrete, fiberglass, or plastic. The boxes shall be installed in conformance with the manufacturer's instructions in addition to the requirements above. Absorption Field Systems. A. Site requirements. a. The minimum distances that absorption fields shall be separated from other facilities are shown in the table provided. b. A minimum of four feet of useable soil shall exist above bedrock and groundwater with a minimum separation of two feet to the lowest part of any trench. c. Absorption fields shall not be built under driveways, parts of buildings or under above- ground swimming pools or other areas subject to heavy loading. Surface waters shall be diverted from the vicinity of the system. B. Design criteria. a. The required length of absorption trench is determined from the percolation test results and confirmed by the on site soil evaluation. The maximum trench width for design purposes shall be 24 inches. b. Adjacent trenches shall be separated by at least four feet of undisturbed soil. Individual trenches shall be constructed parallel to the ground contours with trench bottoms as near level as possible. They need not be perfectly straight but abrupt changes in direction shall be avoided. C. Materials. a. Perforated distributor pipe shall be used in the trenches. Solid (non -perforated) pipe shall be used between the distribution box and the trenches. Perforated pipe shall be made of rigid or corrugated plastic and be labeled as fully meeting ASTM standards for use in septic systems. Corrugated plastic pipe delivered in coils is not to be used unless provision is made to prevent the recoiling or movement of the pipe after installation. b. Aggregate shall mean washed grovel or crushed stone 3/4- 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Larger diameter material or finer substances and run -of -bank gravel are unacceptable. c. The aggregate shall be covered with a material that prevents soil from entering the aggregate after backfilling, yet must permit air and moisture to pass through. The preferred material for covering the aggregate is a permeable geotextile. Untreated building paper or a four inch layer of hay or straw is acceptable. Polyethylene and treated building paper are relatively impervious and shall not be used. D. Construction. a. Trench locations and depths should be marked by stakes before the trenches are excavated. b. The natural surface shall not be significantly disturbed. If the site is regraded or similarly disturbed, the soil shall be allowed to stabilize and new percolation tests conducted. c. The trench depth shall be as shallow as possible, but not less than 18 inches. At least six inches of aggregate is placed below the distribution line and two inches above the line. d. The earth cover over the aggregate should not exceed 12 inches in order to enhance natural aeration and nitrogen uptake by plant life. Trenches shall be excavated to design depth with bottoms practically level. Heavy equipment shall be kept away from the field because the weight may permanently alter soil characteristics due to compaction, cause trench cave-ins, and/or misalign and break pipe. e. Trench bottoms are to be raked and immediately covered with at least six inches of aggregate. Any smeared surfaces on the trench walls are to be raked. Distributor lines are carefully placed on the aggregate and covered with aggregate to a depth of at least two inches over the top of the pipe. Additional aggregate may be required to bring the top of the aggregate to within six to 12 inches of the surface. f. In gravity distribution systems, the pipe shall be carefully sloped at between 1/16 inch and 1/32 inch per foot. Grades shall be determined by an engineer's level, transit or carpenter's level. g. After the upper aggregate is placed, the geotextile, untreated building paper, hay or straw is to be immediately installed and the trench backfilled with native soil. if the trenches cannot be immediately backfilled, they should be temporarily covered with on impervious material such as treated building paper to prevent sidewall collapse and siltation into the aggregate. h. The earth backfill is to be mounded slightly above the original ground level to allow for settling and after settlement the entire area should be graded without the use of heavy equipment and seeded with grass.
