THEODORE F. MOORE, P.E. September 4, 2002
PH: (907) 345-1355 ANCHORAGE, ALASKA 99516
Jeannie and Ron Guitreau
P.O. Box 110589
Anchorage, AK 99511
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Guitreau:
Per your request, on August 22, 2002 1 conducted adequacy tests of the water supply ~nd
wastewater disposal systems serving the residence you own on Lot 16, Block 2, Dalzell-Schneiter S/D,
located at 10221 Evergreen Street. I am pleased to report that both systems appear to be functioning
adequately at this time. I am now submitting an applkation with the Municipal Development Services
Department (DSD) for a Health Authority Approval (HAA) certificate. You or your Realtor can call
them at 343-7904 to find out if the HAA is ready and then pick it up from their office at 4700 South
Bragaw Street. The following is a report of my test procedure and findings.
According to the driller's log the well was drilled in November of 1979 and has a total depth of
40 feet and a yield of 8 gpm. On the date of my test the static water level stood at 23.5 feet below the
top of the casing. During the course of the test I pumped a total of,1744 gallons of water from the
system at the maximum pump rate of 5.73 gpm which caused the water level inside the casing to be
drawn to 28 feet, but no further. Based on the test datg, I determined that the well yield is'in excess of
5.7 gallons per minute, which is more than adequate for a single-family residence. Water samples
collected on 8/27/02 were satisfactory showing 0 coliform or other bacteria per 100ml. and 3.20 mg/1 of
nitrate nitrogen. The well seal you arranged to have replaced was necessary to bring it into compliance
with code.
According to the as-built inspection reports on file with the Municipality, the wastewater
disposal system was installed in October of 1978 and consists of a 1250-gallon steel septic tank followed
by 29 lineal feet of soil absorption trench containing 6 feet of sewer gravel. The monitor tube at the eno
of the trench, however, extends approximately 2 feet below the invert of the distribution pipe. To assess
the adequacy of the system on August 22, 2002 1 added 1744 gallons of water to it through the second
compartment of the septic tank while monitoring fluid levels in the septic tank and soil absorption trench
standpipes before, during and after the flow of water was stopped. The monitor tube at the end of the
trench was dry at the start of the test, and no fluid ever built up in this pipe during the course of the test.
Since the exact reabsorption rate couldn't be measured, I based my conclusion that the system is still
adequate on its extremely large surge capacity (approximately 3 times the design daily water
consumption, and significantly greater than the theoretical void space in the sewer gravel in the trench).
On the date of the test which was near the end cfa prolonged rainy stretch there was a significant.
flow of water in the drainage ditch between this lot and the lot to the north which is located
approximately 67 feet from the septic tank and 75 feet from the sci,1 absorption trench. If this were
classified as surface water a waiver would be necessary before a HAA certificate could be issuedl
However, when I reinspected the ditch 5 days later it was completely dry, and after consultation with
Dan Roth at DSD he informed me that this temporary drainage should not be classified as surface water.
In conducting an adequacy test I attempt to provide a thorough, conscientious engineering
analysis of the system. The reported results describe the performance of the system under the conditions
encountered at the time of the test and the separation distances are measured to readily identifiable
features. All septic systems eventually fail and satisfactory test results do not guarantee future
performance of the system under different conditions, nor do they guarantee that there are no hidden
defects or encroachments. Please feel fi'ee to give me a call if you have any questions on this report.
Sincerely,
Ted Moore, P.E.
