OF HEALTH & ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION RECEIVED On 10/30/87, a testhole was dri]led on the subject lot to monitor for ground water. See attached soil log. The testhole was drilled downslope of the existing bed. Ground water was encoutered at 8 feet, which would be 9 feet below the bottom of the bed. $otl was completely dry to 6 feet where it became slightly moist. The hole filled with water quite rapidly indicating an artesian pressure in the testhole. On 11/12/87 the water level was at 2.6 feet below ground surface, or 3.6 feet below the bed. You were on the site on 11/30/87 and found the water level at 2.8 feet below ground surface or 3 8 feet below the bed. ' · I believe these water monitor readings are inaccurate due to the artesian pressure showing a high static level. At worst case, I would say 6 feet below the surface, or 7 feet below the bed, would be a more accurate groundwater level which is where the soil showed some moisture content. We request that you approve the septic system on the subject lot. If you have any questions, please call. Sincerely, Alan C. Wien Engineering Technician 1200 LUest 33rd Auenue. Suite B · Anchoraqe.

ALASKA erlUIROlqmellTAL COrlTROL $eRUICe$, (~n§incerin§ 6, (~nuironm~nt~l $1uclies Re: Lot 8, Block 1, Birchtree Estates Subdivision Dear Mr. Bolles: On December lOth, 1987, I visited the subject lot to look at the depression in the snow that you had previously discussed with Mr. Alan C. Wien. Morris Johnson showed me the area that you were talking about. I could see the area which was near where you had walked. The snow pack is heavy. I dug through at the locations shown on the attached sketch. With the heavy snow pack and the relatively mild winter coupled with the fact that the insulated shallow bed receives relatively warm water from the tank, there was no frost in the ground at the site where the depression was shown. The soils at that point were moist but not wet. From the measurements it would appear that this depression was very close to the edge of the bed. See sketch location 1. In the snow there are ice crystals from the ground surface to approximately 4 to 5 inches. This would indicate that the moisture coming from the ground is condensing and freezing in that range. At location 2 it is slightly decreased and at location 3 the crystal limit is about 1 to 2 inches from the ground surface. Also the ground at position 3 possibly had a frost right at the ground surface. However, it was not so deep that I could pentrate the ground surface just by taking my index finger and pushing it into the soil. I do not know if you have had the experience but whenever you have a heavy snow pack over a shallow bed you will get the 32 degree isotherm moving upward and fluctuating between the ground surface as much as a foot into the snow. This is evidenced by the evaporated water from the system moving up and then cooling to 32 degrees and crystalizing in the snow pack. As the winter goes on, if the snow pack continues the ice crystals will increase in size and in depth. By spring some of the crystals will be approximately 1/4 of an inch thick and may be as long as 1/2 of an inch. This phenomenon is not new. I have experienced it and reported it in the years since beds are being used in Anchorage. We know that evapotransporation does occur in shallow beds. Particularly in the winter there is evidence of evaporation of water and precipitating into the snow pack over top. You will also notice that in the spring the snow will disappear quicker over a bed than from the surrounding area. Because the 32 degree isotherm is at or above ground surface, some slight melting of snow will occur at the snow-soil interface. Therefore during the winter, unless there is a heavy period of extremely low temperatures, the ground over a bed will remain thawed. Since it is thawed and covered with a water bearing substance the soils will be slightly damp. 1200 LUesl 33rcl Ptuenue. Suile B ·/~nchoroqe. ~loska 99503.(907) 561-50/-10 I do not believe water is coming out of the lower part of this bed. If anything there might be less ground cover at that one point or the insulation did not completely cover the edge of the rock. Therefore, heat is escaping from that point faster than at other points. You might get one of the technical books on arctic engineering and check what I am saying. This is a common phenomenon which most engineers who work in cold climates have seen and experienced. It is nothing to be alarmed about. If you have any questions, please give me a call.

Per Alaska Statute 18 AAC 72 and AMC 15.65.060 B1, the existance of an on-site septic system within 100 feet of surface water is not permitted. The existance of water bearing ditches constructed along the western and southern boundaries of your property would preclude the site selected for on-site disposal. There also exists concern over possible encroachment on the four foot separation required by AMC 15.65.020 C between the base of the seepage bed and ground water, as well as the possible contamination of your well by surface water runoff. I would like to discuss this matter as soon as possible and would suggest both you and your engineer be present to go over our findings. Please call me for any further clarification you might need at 264-4744. Sinc~erely,, ~ Daniel N. Bolles Engineering Tech On-site Services DNB/lJw unicip ityof nchor ¢ P.O. BOX 196650 ~--'~ ....
