3.0 Soil absorption system:
3.1 The soil absorption system shall be constructed by excavating a 40 foot long trench to a depth of
no greater than 10 feet below ground level in the vicinity of test hole #3.
3.2 The bottom of the excavation shall be level. Any compacted or smem'ed surfaces shall be raked to
allow proper infilu'ation.
3.3 A total of 5.5 feet of approved sewer gravel shall be placed in the bottom of the excavation with
the perforated disu'ibution pipes laid level such that the pipe inverts are no less than 5.0 feet above the
bottom of the sewer gravel. Sewer gravel shall be 0.5" - 2.5" screened gravel, with less than 3% passing
the #200 sieve.
3.4 Monitor tubes and cleanout pipes shall be of 4" diameter and installed in the locations shown on
the design ch'awings. The portion of the monitor tube extending through the sewer gravel shall be
perforated.
3.5 Approved filter fabric shall be placed over the enth'e top surface of the sewer gravel. A minimum
of 2 feet of soil cover is to be placed over the filter fabric. If the soil cover thickness is less than 3 feet,
two inches of rigid, burial type insulation is to be placed over the enth'e top surface of the gravel, in
addition to the filter fabric.
3.6 The top surface of the cover material shall be raised a minimum of 12 inches higher than the
surrounding terrain to allow for subsequent settlement, and shall be graded to smooth contom's. Fill
slopes shall be no steeper than 3:1.
3,7 Unless specifically agreed otherwise the homeowner shall be responsible for arranging to have the
site finish graded after the backfdl material has stabilized, and for placement of adequate topsoil and seed
to promote rapid revegetation of all m'eas disturbed by the consu~uction.
4.0 Inspections:
4.1 A ~rdnimum of 4 engineering inspections will be required during the course of the project: (1)
initial stakeout with the contractor to establish the location of the system and to discuss the plans,
specifications and consU'uction procedures, (2) after the native material has been excavated to expose the
infiltrative sm'face to ensure that it is level and at the right elevation, and conforms with the soil test
hfformation, (3) after the sewer gravel is in place and the disu'ibution pipes have been laid and connected
up to the septic tank, but prior to placement of insulation or filter fabric, and (4) after rough backfill and
grading is complete. The septic tank requh'es one inspection after it is set level and the piping connected,
but prior to backfill. This inspection may be incorporated with any of the above inspections.
4.2 The installer shall coordinate the timing of the inspections with the engineer sufficiently faa' in
advance to ensm'e the availability of the engineer.

Dem' Sks:
The purpose of tiffs letter is to provide the mquh'ed design nan'ative in support of our application for a
permit to construct water supply and wastewater disposal facilities on Lot A6B Siefker S/D, located at
11425 Avion Street. Soils logs, perc test results, a site plan, design drawings and specifications m'e
enclosed for your review.
The proposed system will be constructed in the vicinity of test hole # 2. As can be seen fi'om the soil
log for test hole #2, the native material between 6 feet and 18 feet is a somewhat silty gravelly sand with a
measured perc rate of 2 minutes per inch. This gravelly sand is overlain by a mixture of clean gravel and
silt. Using the soil application rate of 1.2 gpd/sq, ft. specified in the wastewater ordinance for soils with
perc rates of between 1 and 5 minutes per inch, this proposed 3 bedroom residence requires a total
absorption area of (3 x 150)/1.2 = 375 square feet. The proposed 40 foot long trench design with 8 feet of
gravel between 3' and 11' below ground level has a total absorption m'ea of 400 squm'e feet for the portion
in the gravelly sand stratum, plus another 240 feet for the portion in the overlying gravel m~d silt strata.
The topography of the lot in the m'ea of the proposed construction is geuerally flat with a low 1~oll to
the west upon wlfich the house will be constructed.
The proposed project will have no significant impact on present or future water supply and wastewater
disposal systems serving adjacent properties, nor will it have any significant impact on reserved space-
surface and subsurface, or on ch'aiuage.
Please give me a call at 345-1355 if you have any questions on this submittal.

On 6/21/96 you issued permit # SW960135 for the inshallation of a well and septic system
on Lot A6B of Siefker S/D. We m'e requesting a modification of that permit allowing the septic
system to be constructed in a different location as shown on the enclosed ch'awings. A new soils
test (see enclosed log) which was conducted in the new location indicates the soils to be somewhat
cleaner and sandier than in the originally proposed location.
We would appreciate yom' review of the enclosed ch'awings and approval of the proposed
new configuration. Please feel free to give me a call if you have any questions.

of 2 feet of soil cover is to be placed over the filter fabric. If the soil cover thickness is less than 3 feet,
two inches of rigid, burial type insulation is to be placed over the entke top surface of the gravel, in
addition to the filter fabric.
3.6 The top surface of the cover material shall be raised a minimum of 12 inches higher than the
surrounding terrain to allow for subsequent settlement, and shall be graded to smooth contours. Fill
slopes shall be no steeper than 3:1.
3.7 Unless specifically agreed otherwise the homeowner shall be responsible for re'ranging to have the
site finish graded after the backfill material has stabilized, and for placement of adequate topsoil and seed
to promote rapid revegetation of all a'eas disturbed by the construction.
4.0 Inspections:
4.1 A minimum of 4 engineering inspections will be required dm'ing the course of the project: (1)
initial stakeout with the contractor to establish the location of the system and to discuss the plans,
specifications and construction procedures, (2) after the native material has been excavated to expose the
infiltrative sm'face to ensm'e that it is level and at the fight elevation, and conforms with the soil test
information, (3) after the sewer gravel is in place and the distribution pipes have been laid and connected
up to the septic tank, but prior to placement of insulation or filter fabric, and (4) after rough backfill and
grading is complete. The septic tank requh'es one inspection after it is set level and the piping connected,
but prior to backfill. This inspection may be incorporated with any of the above inspections.
4.2 The installer shall coordh~ate the timing of the inspections with the engineer sufficiently far in
advance to ensm'e the availability of the engineer.

5. STATEMENT OF INSPECTION BY ENGINEER
As certified by my seal affixed hereto and as of the validation date shown below, I verify that my investigation, based on procedures
outlined in the Certificate of On -Site Systems Approval Guidelines for this application, shows that the on-site water supply and/or
wastewater disposal system is (are) safe, functional and adequate for the number of bedrooms and type of structure indicated
herein. I further verify that based on the information obtained from the Municipality of Anchorage files and from my investigation and
inspection, the on-site water supply and/or wastewater disposal system is (are) in compliance with all applicable Municipal and State
codes, ordinances, and regulations in effect at the time of installation.
In conducting an adequacy test, I attempt to provide a thorough, conscientious engineering analysis of the system in accordance with MCA
COSA guidelines and regulations. The reported results describe the performance of the system under the conditions encountered at the time
of the test, and separation distances measured to readily identifiable features. The operational life of all wells and septic systems depend on
the local soil condition, ground water levels that may fluctuate during the year, and the water usage of the family being served by the system.
These conditions are outside the control of the evaluator of this system. All systems eventually fail and satisfactory test results do not
guarantee future performance of the system, nor do they guarantee that there are no hidden defects or encroachments. Therefore we cannot
provide any warranty for future performance, nor can we estimate remaining life of the system. The content of this report is for the sole
benefit of the owner listed above. Reliance on this report by another person is at their own risk. Pannone Engineering Services LLC highly
recommends buyers hire their own engineer to evaluate this report.

Nitrate Advisory
Certificate of On -Site Systems Approval # OSC211425
Subdivision: Siefker #2 Lot A613
A water sample revealed a nitrate concentration of 5.65 milligrams per liter (mg/Q.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has established a maximum,
contaminant level (MCL) of 10.0 mg/L for public drinking water systems. While
private wells are not subject to this regulation, EPA standards are based on existing
health information and can therefore be used to gauge the relative quality of water
from private wells. Please see the attached "Nitrate Fact Sheet" for important
information regarding nitrate.
This advisory must be attached to all copies of the subject Certificate of On -Site
Systems Approval.

From Northern Testing Laboratories, Inc.
Nitrate is a negatively charged compound of nitrogen and oxygen, which is very soluble in water. Nitrate
is not readily filtered or otherwise removed in the soil and can pass rapidly into ground water wells.
SOURCE: Nitrate is a major component of fertilizer and wastewater. Often the nitrate is in the form of
ammonia or protein first, which through contact with oxygen and certain bacteria, converts to the
oxidized form known as nitrate. Sources of nitrate from wastewater include urea, ammonia cleaners,
food solids, and bacterial cells. It may also result from the breakdown of organic matter buried in the soil.
TOXICITY: Nitrate is generally not toxic to adults or children over the age of two or three years but is
associated with a potentially fatal infant disease called methemoglobinemia. In the digestive system of
young children, nitrate converts to nitrite, which can pass through the intestinal wall into the blood
stream. There it combines with the hemoglobin and interferes with the ability of the blood to carry
oxygen. For this reason, methemoglobinemia is referred to as "blue baby" disease. The EPA limits the
concentration of nitrate in public drinking water supplies to 10 mg/L. The standard has been lowered
from a previous level of 45 mg/L set by the US Public Health Service and the World Health Organization.
TREATMENT: due to its solubility in water and negative ionic charge, filtration and other common home
water treatment systems such as softening, or iron filtration does not readily remove nitrate. The best
method for limiting nitrate in well water is source control. This can include avoiding overdosing of
fertilizer near the well and maintaining good separation distances between septic tank leach fields and
the well. A special anion exchange filter that contains a media with a strong affinity for negatively charged
ions in water, or by a reverse osmosis treatment system or distillation can remove nitrate.
TESTING: Nitrate analysis is usually done by one of the several "wet chemical" methods using a
spectrophotometer to read the final color endpoint. Specific ion electrodes also can be used to detect
the activity of nitrate in water. This laboratory uses several different wet chemical methods approved
under the public water supply laboratory certification program. They also have test kits available, which
the laboratory uses to perform an inexpensive "screening test", and with which the homeowner can
monitor the change in nitrate levels from their well. They recommend comparing the test kit results
against a certified analysis from the lab occasionally to verify the accuracy of the kit. We recommend
using a specially prepared bottle that has been rinsed in hydrochloric acid for collecting samples.
