Anchorage, AK 99504
Subject: Lot 15, Blk 1, Birchtree Est. PID #017-141-23
Dear Mrs. Widmer,
A careful review of the permit application for the subject lot
has shown that the soil conditions do not meet the minimum
requirements for on site wastewater disposal. As set forth in
AMC 15.65, the lack of sufficient permeable soil and the
presence of seasonally high groundwater prohibit development of
a conventional soil absorption system.
An appeal of this decision may be made through the office of the
director pursuant to AMC 15.05.090 and AMC 15.65.015. Please be
advised that any appeal must be made within twenty (20) days of
the date of this decision.
If you wish to discuss the matter further please do not hesitate
to contact my office at 343-4744.
Sincere~l~y,.~~/~~~

Lot. 15'Block 1, Birch Tree Estates Subdivision
Dear Mrs. Widmer,
We are submitting herewith the percolation results and our conLments regard
ing soil conditions encountered at the subject site.. This investigation was
perfo'L~med in accordance with your req-aest of July 28, 1975, and those pro-
cedures outlined in a letter dated July 15, 1975 by Mr. Roll Strickland of
the Greater Anchorage Area Borough Department of Environmental Quality.
A'single test hole was put down within Lot 15, Block 1 of Birch Tree Estates
S~.~bdivision for-the purpose of defining general subsurface soil conditions
L©r the proposed sanitary system. Excavation was accomplished with a hand
powered post hole digger. The test hole was extended to a hotal depth of 6.5
feet below ground surface.
The material encountered was found to consist of 4 inches of organics over-
lying 3 feet of clayey Silt with some sand and trace gravel grading to
clayey sandy silt with some gravel.
The materials from 2,0 to 6.0 feet were saturated with water for a period
of eight hours before the percolation test was started. The results of the.
test are enclosed.
Ground water was not encountered in the test hole.
We appreciate being given this opportunity to be of service 'to you. Should
you have any questions with regard to the above, please do not hesitate to
