Re: Conditional Waiver For Lot 12 Block 21 Alyeska Subdivision #3,
Waiver Number WR970006, P.I.N. 076-022-25
Dear Mr. Garness:
The conditional waiver from a well to public sewer has been given full approval.
The required separation distances from a private well to a public sewer main is
75 feet, public sewer cleanout is 100 feet and private sewer service line is 25
feet. The approved separation distances are:
1. public sewer main of 28 feet
2. public sewer cleanout of 35 feet
3. private sewer service line of 5 feet.
The status change of this waiver request is the result of the property owner and
you completing the requirements of the Alaska Department of Environmental
Conservation's letter from Bill H. Lamoreaux, P.E. to James Cross, P.E. of On'-
Site Services.
If you have questions please give me a call at 343-4761.

Attn: Dan Roth
Subject:
Waiver of separation distance from existing private well on Lot 12, Bk 21,
Aiyeska #3 to sewer service line (serving same lot), and the public sewer
main/clean-out (AWWU).
Dear Mr. Roth:
Per your approval letter, dated 3/14/97, we have performed the work necessary to obtain an
unconditional approval of the subject waivers. The minimum separation distances are as follows:
a. Well to sewer main: 28+ feet
b. Well to sewer manhole/clean-out: 35+ feet
c. Well to sewer service line: 5+ feet
Per the directives outlined in ADEC's letter, dated 2/6/97 the following applies:
1. The sewer service line, within 20 feet of the well, is HDPE pipe, with butt fused joints.
The foundation C/O is HDPE also. The HDPE is connected to the existing service line (at the
house and street) with Romac fittings. The HDPE line was installed by, Dick Redmond
(783-2373), and he contracted with Maskell Robbins (HDPE pipe suppliers) to have their factory
certified technicians prefabricate.the entire line (including the clean-out). All Dick Redmond had
to do was cut the pipe to fit, and connect it with the Romac couplings. The installation was
inspected by Alaska Water & Wastewater (Jeffrey A. Garness, P.E.) and Anchorage Water &
Wastewater Utility (AWWU). A copy of AWWU's inspection report is attached. The new
service line does encroach upon Lot 13, Bk 21, Alyeska//3. The replat of the property (Dowl
Engineers) provides an easement for future maintenance of the service line. The P.O.C at Dowl
Engineers is Tim Potter (562-2000).
2. The newer well (drilled 1988) was grouted to prevent the intrusion of surface waters
which may migrate along the casing wall. Attached is an Email statement from Alpine Drilling
(Dave Harper) regarding the scope of work. This technique was the same method approved by
DHHS for the Doyle Miller property (Lot 8, Bk 22, Alyeska S/D) in 1996.
3. The old well (drilled 1979) was abandoned per M.O.A code by Alpine Drilling.
After the completion of the work, the well was chlorinated (several times) and the water sampled.
On 10/22/97 the nitrate levels were undeteetable, and 114 O.B were detected. The water was
resampled (11/3/97) without re-chlorinating, and the bacteria levels were TNTC with coliform
bacteria, however, the lab's fecal coliform confirmation was ~ We chlorinated the well on
the day the sample was taken (11/3/97), just in case the results were unsatisfactory. A sample
was taken on 11/11/97, and this time the OB levels were TNT,C, without coliform bacteria. The
well was rechlorinated on 11/20/97 and then flushed/sampled on 11/24/97. The well was flushed
for 1.5 hours prior to.sampling on 11/24/97. The analysis indicated that no bacteria was present.
In short, after considerable effort, it appears that the well has been adequately disinfected.
Based upon my evaluation of the work performed, and the recent water samples, it is my
recommendation that the subject waivers be approved. If you have any questions, please contact
me at 337-6179, or 244-9612. Thank you. for your assistance.

The work that was described in the earlier e-mail has been completed.
The well which was no longer functioning was decommissioned using
bentonite grout. After being filled with grout, the well was then
cutoff below grade and capped.
was pump tested to find water entrance. Incoming water appeared to be
at 77 feet below TOC. The pump was pulled and the well lined with 4"
PVC from 12 feet below TOC to 87 feet below TOC. Shale packers had been
installed on the PVC to be at 67 feet and 70 feet. The well was then
grouted with Benonite grout from the shale packers to above the casing
depth of 40 feet. The well was then ran for a period of time to clear
the water, however the water was not completely clear when I left. The
well will have to be ran again before testing so as to clear the water
of clorine residule left as the last thing done was to clorinate it.
That should sufficiently clear the well also.
Jeff, if you have questions please call.

Jeff. to do the following as we discused would be $2100.00. Abandon old
well by house, Install new well seal, grout usable well on exterior of
PVC liner. Liner would be installed to the bottom of well with packers
at approximatly 60 to 70 feet. Grout would then be installed from
packers back to a point just below the pitless adapter. A pump test
would be ran prior to above so as to find entrancing flow so as to be
able to locate packers at lowesst possible point whereby creating the
best seal possible. We are estimating completion to be within two weeks
from notice to proceed. This basically would cover all labor, materials
etc. that would be needed for above.
questions, let me know.

Attn: Hallie Stewart
Subject: Modification to Sewer Service Line. Lot 12, Bk 21, Alyeska #3
Dear Ms. Stewart:
The subject property has a 4 bedroom house; served by a private well and public sewer. There
are two wells on the lot (see attached drawing). The first well was drilled on 8/14/79, and
produced only 0.5 gpm. The second well (5 gpm) was drilled, without a permit, on 6/6/88. It is
only about 5 feet from the sewer service line, 28 feet from the public sewer nmin, and 35 feet
from the public sewer c/o. The plan at this time is to have the old well properly abandoned, and
utilize only the newer well. We have received a waiver from ADEC regarding the separation
distances to the sewer main/clean-out, and the service line. As a condition of this waiver ADEC
is requiting that the sewer service line, within 20 feet of the well, be replaced with HDPE pipe
with no joints (butt fused). The pipe will be installed and pressure tested by manufacturer
certified personnel. Given the location of the well, it can be seen that a portion of the service line
in the right-of-way will need to be replaced also. Since the portion of the line in the fight-of-way
is technically owned by AWWU, it is reasonable to assume that we will need to have your
approval to perform the proposed work.
At this time, we are requesting your fbrmal approval of the modification, and your input regarding
material and/or construction specifications. Upon receiving your approval to proceed, we will
apply for the connect & right-of-way construction permits. Attached is a copy of all the
correspondence regarding this project. If you have any questions, please contact me at
337-6179, or on my digital pager at 1-800-481-1162. Thank you for your assistance.

Dear Mr. Kleweno:
GENERAL: The subject property has a 4 bedroom house, served by a private well and public
sewer. There are two wells on the lot (see attached drawing). The first .well was drilled on
8/14/79, and produced only 0.5 gpm. The second well (5 gpm) was drilled, without a permit, on
6/6/88. It is only about 5feet,from the sewer service line, 28feet from the public sewer main,
and: 35 feet from the public sewer c/o. Per regulation the following separation distances are
required:
1. Private well to private sewer service line: 25 feet
2. Private well to public sewer main: 75 feet
3. Private well to public sewer clean-out: 100 feet
Clearly, the well is not in compliance with regards to these separation distances. We are
propOsin, g to abandon the old well (per ADEC guidelines), and obtain waivers to the
aforementioned separation distances. Justification for the waivers is summarized as follows: ·
REPLACE THE SEWER SERVICE LINE: In order to mitigate contamination, from the
sewer service line, we are proposing to replace the existing 4 inch cast iron line (within the 25
foot Well radius), With a 4 inch diameter High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), with bUR. fused
joints. The HDPE line will connect to the cast iron line with water tight 'Temco" Couplings.
This will eliminate the possibility of wastewater leaking from a pipe joint and. contaminatin~ the
well. The service line will be pressure tested, and inspected by AWWU. The location of the
v/ater line in relation to the sewer service line is unknown at this time; however, the installation of
the HDPE line will certainly minimize the potential for any cross contamination.
CONDITION OF EXISTING AWWU SEWER LINE: Enclosed with this package is a video
showing TV footage of the AWWU sewer line. Upon viewing it you will see that the pipe and
joints appear to be in good condition (no collapsed pipe, leaking joints, or infiltration). This tape
belongs to AWWU, so I will need to get il back. Also enclosed is a copy of their field report.
PleaSe note their comment, "system in good overall condition". P.O.C at AWWU is Mike
Blanchard (267-4504).
MINIMAL USE OF AWWU SEWER LINE: Attached is a copy of the' AWWU seWer line
as-builts. Within 100 feet of the subject well there are only 3 sewer service lines (Lot 12, Bk 21
and Lots 11 & 12, Bk 22) which "feed" into the AWWU sewer line, and only two of them serve
developed lots (see drawing). A t this time, the A WWU line is equivalent to a private sewer line
(serving only Lot 12, Bk 21) down to the service connection for Lot 11, Bk 22, approximately 82
feet away from the well (> 75feeO. When Lot 12, Bk 22 is developed, the AWWU line, within
the?5, foot radius of the well, will only serve two residences (which will probably only be used
occasionally during the ski season).
STEEP GRADE DOWNHILL FROM AWWIJ CLEAN-OUT TO MANHOLE: The
elevation drop from the clean-out to the manhole is 21.8 feet over 180.2 feet. This corresponds
to a slope of 12.1 percent. This steep slope will ensure that wastewater in the line rapidly runs
away, minimizing the opportunity for it to leak out a bad joint (should a joint deteriorate in the
future). According to the AWWU as-built drawings, the soils around the sewer line are classified
as GM (silty gravel). Any joint leakage would tend to follow the path of least resistance, which
would be downhill through the pipe bedding material, and away from the well on Lot 12, Bk 21.
In sh°rt, wastewater leaking from the AWWU sewer line would nOt migrate towards the well.
,The elevation difference between the manhole and the clean-out will ensure that wastewater does
not back-up in the sewer line, daylight, and flow towards the well. In order for this to occur,
several of the houses downhill from t,he c/o would have to flood first, a scenario Unlikely to go
unnoticed!
WATER QUALITY: Recent water sampling/analysis (11/17/96) found no bacteria, and nitrate
levels'of0.1 mg/1.. Copies of the lab results are attached.
WELL TEST: On the day of the adequacy test (11/17/96) the static level was 1.5 feet below
the. top of the casing (casing extends approx. 1.2 feet above ground). Water was pumped .from
the well at a rate of 5.21 gpm for 115 minutes (600 gallons). The water level in the casing
dropped approximately 70 feet. During the first 10 minutes of the recovery period, the level rose
35 feet~ Based upon this data, it was determined that the capacity of the well exceeds .42 gpm,
the minimum requirement for a 4 bedroom house (600 gallons per day).
~ Sine,rely,
:.. ~am~'4 ess, P.E., M.S.
'~::'~'~ ARY: Upon considering the mitigating factors, it appears that there is minimal risk
ssQe! M with granting the subject waivers. Attached is a cheek for $230.00, payable~t° the
S~ g~.Alaska, for the waiver review. If you have any questions, please contact: me at
33~ii~: 39, or on my digital pager at 1-800-481-1162. Thank you for your assistance.

Lot 12, Bk. 21, Alyeska #3 Separation Distance Waiver
9721-WV-327-023
Dear Jim,
At your request, our office has completed a review of the well separation distance waiver request
for the above-referenced property. Our review consisted of reviewing a submittal from Jeffrey
Garness, Alaska Water & Wastewater, dated November 21, 1996, and a supplemental submittal
dated January 22, 1997, which included a letter from Rick Mystrom (the property owner) dated
January 20, 1977. The waiver was requested for a horizontal separation distance between a
private well on the above-referenced lot and the service connection, a sewer lateral, and a sewer
clean out. Based on this review, we recommend a conditional approval be granted provided the
following additional criteria are met:
The location of the service connection to the residence where the proposed High
Density Polyethylene (HDPE) ends must be at least 20 feet from the location of
the well. From the information provided, it was unclear where the service
connection to the residence occurred. As this point of connection remains a
potential point of failure, this distance is the minimum the Department could
allow.
The proposed replacement of the service connection with HDPE is acceptable
provided the following conditions exist and the following criteria are achieved:
The HDPE wi!! be installed and tested by manufacturer certified
personnel. The installation and testing will be overseen by a licensed
engineer.
The location of the sewer service line shall be located the maximum
potential distance from the well and in no event can it be any closer than 5
feet.
If the existing service line (to be abandoned) is closer to the well than 5
feet, the abandoned line should be removed and the ditch backfilled and
compacted with a dense soil having low permeability to minimize the risk
of the old trench serving as a conduit to transport sewage.

The well will need to be grouted into the bedrock so as to eliminate any potential
of water entering the well from either the bedrock interface with overlaying soils
or the overlaying soils themselves. Well log information was insufficient to
verify the construction practices used at the time of well completion or the
identity of the producing zone of the well.
4. The abandoned well will need to be properly abandoned as per 18AAC80.
Mr. Gamess has paid the stun of $230.00 to our Department which covers the appropriate DEC
fee for this type of waiver review. Although he submitted the request directly to us, it is our
understanding that your office will process the request and make the formal response as is done
with all other single family systems within the Municipality of Anchorage. We appreciate the
opportunity to assist your office in conducting this review. Please let me know if you have any
questions concerning our recommendations.

Subject: Rick Mystrom Well on Lot 12, Bk 21, Aly~ka #3,
Dear Mri Lamoreaux:
In response to your correspondence, dated 12/16/96, I contacted Mr, Mystrom regarding tho
history of the old well (drilled 8/14/79). Attached is a letter he prepared whloh summarizes tho
problems that necessitated drilling the new well (6/6/88). Based upon his statement it is clear that
1:here are periods when the old well doesn't produce any water at all. Given this flict, it is
reasonable to assume that using the old well, a~d increasing storaso tank capacity, is not a viable
option. Therefore, we are asking that your department gtRher consider the previously requested
wafven.

9721-WV-327-023
Dear Mr. Garness,
This letter is in response to your November 21, 1996 submittal in which you requested a waiver for
the horizontal separation distance between a private well on the above referenced lot and the.s~rvloe
conneotlon, a sewer lateral, and a sewer clean out, We have completed our review and offer the
following response.
Your report indicated that the well was drilled on August 14, 1979 and produced 0.5 gpm. No
'additional information was provided on this well except that it has not been abandoned to date. In
that this well is approximately 80 feet from the sewer clean-out and 70 feet from tbe'.,sewer main, it
would appear that obtaining a waiver for this well involves less risk than for the replacement w~II'
that was constructed without a municipal permit. It may also bo that this well was approved for
conslxuction with kaov~ledge of the location of the domestic s~,-wer.system, In other words~'a waiver
for separation distances may have already been ~btained.
We are requesting that the potential use of this well be examined for serving this lot, If tt 'stills
yields 0.5 gpm, the development of approprlate.storage capability would, eliminate the need for
further consideration of the original request.
On a related topic, our review of these plans is being handled as a courtesy to the Municipality of
Anchorage, Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) as a means of avoiding any
poteatial conflict of interest; between the municipal staff and your client, After discussions with' Mr,
Jim Cross, we have agrgcd that it would bc appropriate to continue our review,, but to do so'thro~gh
the DHHS. The significant difference essentially would be that fees normally paid to the DHHS
would be required, In this case our fee would be subtracted out from the frees due DHHS (this fcc
has already been paid) so that thc total fees due would be thc same that any other client would have
to pay for this same service.
We will continue to work directly with you on the technical aspects of the review, however, out final

Attn: Mr. Ralph Nobrega
Subject: Well test, Lot 12, Block 21, Alyeska Subdivision #3
Dear Mr. Nobrega:
Our office conducted a well flow test in conjunction w~th a
Health Authority ~nvestigation on the subject lot.
The well log reports total depth of the well at 80 feet and
yield at 0.5 gallons per minute. A submersible pump pumps
water to a storage tank in a "well house" underneath the
house. Another pump takes water from this unpressurized tank
and pumps it into a small 22 gallon pressure tank, which feeds
the house. We calculate the volume of the large storage tank
at approximately 288 gallons.
The well was tested by pumping both the tank and the well dry.
Approximately 230 gallons were obtained in 30 minutes. We
surmise the storage tanks were not full as the submersible
pump was running and the well was nearly dry at the start of
the test. The well was allowed to recover and begin filling
the storage tank for 90 minutes. Then the well and storage
tanks were again run dry: 58 gallons were pumped in 9
minutes.
Based on our test data, we calculate the well yielding 0.59
gallons per minute, or 849 gallons per day. This exceeds the
Muncipality of Anchorage criteria of 600 gallons per day for a
4-bedroom house.
A water sample was tested and found to be free of coliform
bacteria contamination.
We suggest a copy of this report be presented with the
documents to a propective buyer, in order for the new owner to
understand how the low well yield is overcome by storage

capacity. The new owner must understand that water usage
should be planned so that a continuous supply is available.
~.e. Do not water the lawn, wash clothes, run dishwasher and
run the bath at the same time.
If you have any questions, plese call.
Sincerely,
Denn~ s Roe
