ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
This report is the result of 3 field trip investigations conducted June 26, 1981
and August 20, 1981, on the proposed subdivision of B.L~M. Ldt 5, located within
Section ~5~ TI2N, R3W, S.M. This lot is located west along 104th'Ave. from Birch
Road.
This subdivision consists of 4 lots from the original B.L.M. Lot. The lots will
have 1.25 acres each which conforms to the R-6 zoning.
The proposed area is planned exclusive of public water and sewer utilities.
Development of adequate sanitary facilities will be the responsibility of the in-
dividual property owners, although, there exists a well and a septic system the
proposed Lot 3 serving the existing residence. The sewerage disposal will consist
fo convential septic tanks draining into a seepage pit and/or drain field'. Drawings
extracted from the Department of Health and Environmental protection, Municipality
of Anchorage, have been made a part of this report for the purposes of depicting the
septic system required. Water source will be from individually drilled wells.
The purpose of this report is to define the soils conditions within the propoerty
and determine' the area requirements for proper sewerage seepage, in that particular
soil. '~
SITE DESCRIPTION
Loudermilk Subdivision is located on the south side of 104th Ave about
¼ mile west of Birch Road. The ground slopes gently from the SE cot :~
to the NW corner of the subdivision. The slope within the subdivision ·
is about 1 to 2 percent. The area is covered with a plush growth of birch,
spruce and underbrush, with the exception of the area where the house is
located. There is no evidence of water problems from surface drainage nor
would any be expected within this area. The road (104th Ave.) is constructed
past the proposed subdivision..The owner has been appraised of his resp-
onsibility of road construction to the interior of the subdivision.
SUB-SURFACE SOILS AND CONDITIONS
The surface soils found in ~this area is a varing depth of topsoil and over-
burden rootmat material. It i~s a moderately light colored, loam probably not
too good a quality .for nutrients for plant growing without additi~onal suppli-
ments The thickness varies from'2 to 2.5 feet in depth. Below the' loam in
hole I there was a layer of sand about 1.3 feet deeP. This layer of sand gave
way to a hard-pan material of a silty sand gravel material to 7.0 feet. Below
that there was a gravelly sandy silt material. The total hole did not seem to
have a good prospect for septic system, so I asked_Mr. Tobbin Spurkland to per-
form a~perk test on this hole. He confirmed that perk could be achieved. He
then went to the' northwesterly portion of the lot and dug a new hole ~2 where
he perfOrmed ,the necessary tests for percolation. Those results are made a part
of this r.eport. Alaska Testlab was~used for the MA's on the original testhoie
#1 and %he results are also made a part of this report. As' is shown in test hole
#2 peri~ormed by Mr~ Spurkland, the material changes very substantially. This can
be confirmed by the test results within Leland Stanford Subdivision just to the
Northwest of this subdivision. The results of test hole #1 seem to be the non-
conforming hole within the area. Test'Hole #3 showed a much different result;
more like what was found north of the B.L.M. lot.
There were very good loose.gravels of GP classification where there should be no
trouble setting a septic system.
CONCLUSIONS
These materials have fair to excellant percolation ability, and the fair soils
have been tested and passed for percolation in the location of the second hole
dug.
Lot #3 has a dwelling with septic tank and well, conforming to the requirements
of thm;Municipality.of Anchorage.
Bedrock was not encountered nor should there be any.likelyhood of ~t. No perma-
frost was encountered and no water was found in either of these holes.
Bases on the information obtained in these holes, it is proven that this sub-
division is suitable for single family units, as zoned. It is felt that the soils
conditions encountered do not preclude the utilization of septic tanks and soils
absorption systems for residential sewerage disposal.
It must be pointed out at this time that further a~proval may be required for
septic tank locations by.the Municipality of Anchorage, Department of Health and
Enviromental Protection. ~

Gentlemen;
Per your reo~est I conducted a percolation investigation on subject lot on June 26.
I utilized a Massey F~rguson ~0 backhoe to dig a test pit on the North Wear corner
of the lot.
Th~ attached soillog shows the conditions found in the pit.
These soil are well suited for soilabsorption systems, ~d any:~system installed
can be expected to perform satisfactory for many years.
