Box 102954 Anchorage, Alaska, 99510 (907) 272-8218 Fax Mr. Dan Rot. h: I am writing to request your department revise Permit No SW 020346 and grant a separation waiver for the drain field and new advantex tank to surface water. While preparing to install the designed and permitted upgrade, surface water was found north of 147th avenue and along the south property line. Both of these drainages were dry when the initial permit was requested. The wet October Anchorage experienced has caused these drainages to start carrying water. The design as permitted will not work due to proximity of surface water. I propose the following: 1. Install a new Advantex septic system with an AX20 treatment pod instead of a 1250 g septic tank. The new fiberglass Advantex tank will be located approximately 85 feet north of the stream running along the south property line. 2. Connect the effluent line from the Advantex system to the existing field. The connection will be where the 100-foot separation setback crosses the existing field. The south 20 feet of the existing field will be abandoned in place and disconnected from the north 45 feet. 3. The northern 45 feet of the existing trench will be reused for the effluent disposal from the Advantex system. Based on the application rate for the soils encountered, only 17 linear feet of trench is required. The northern 20 feet of the existing trench is located approximately 75 feet from the stream running along 147th avenue. 4. I have attached a revised design based on the above information. C:\Work\Letters\25-1 Birch Tree.002.doc Mr. Dan Roth November 23, 2002 Page 2 The grade of the lot is such that if any untreated sewage escapes from the trench or Advantex treatment system, that it will flow to the approximate mid point of the west lot line, then to the south via an existing three foot deep trench. The total overland flow distance will be greater than 100 feet before the sewage intercepts any existing surface water. Reconstruction of 147th avenue a few years ago, rerouted the stream into a culvert that crosses under 147th avenue. This reconstruction project diverted the stream so it flow to the west instead of along the west property line. The existing ditch is dry and remained dry even through the wettest part of this fall. Based on the above information, I request your department reissue Permit Number 8W020346, and grant a separation waiver to the Advantex system tank to 85 feet and 75 feet for the drain field Steven R.

Box 196650 Anchorage, Alaska 99519 Subject: Lot 25, Block 1 Birch Tree Est. S/D Septic System Upgrade Permit Request Gentlemen: My £nuu was contacted to upgrade the existing septic system serving this lot. The existing system is designed for three bedrooms and the owner would like to increase the size of his house to four bedrooms. A single test hole was excavated on August 19, 2002 on the lot. The soils report and a percolation test result is attached. Ground water was monitored for seven days. No bedrock or ground water was encountered in the test hole. However, past experience has shown that ground water is present in this subdivision at a depth of approximately nine feet. This will be used for the ground water design depth. There is surface water on the surrounding lots. The proposed upgrade and reserve area are located greater than 100 feet from these wet area. The lot is approximately 25,187 square feet in size. Lot 25 slopes to the west at approximately 1 percent in the area of the test holes. The existing septic tank will be abandoned. The proposed upgrade will be located on the eastern portion of the lot. A flow splitter will be installed to evenly distribute the flow between the two trenches. The lot is served by a private well. The proposed upgrade is greater than 100 feet away from existing & neighboring wells and 25 feet from the water service lines. The existing drain field is 97 feet from the well, but a waiver was obtained in 1987. The surrounding wells are located greater than 100 feet from the proposed installation. The proposed installation will not affect the future development of the surrounding or existing lots. See the attached design. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at 227-3522 or 272-8218. Sincerely, Steven R. Pannone, P.E.

BOX 6-6650 ANCHORAGE, ALASKA 99501 APRIL 4, 1987 SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF SEPARATION DISTANCES FOR PRIVATE WELL. LOT 25, BLOCK 1, BIRCH TREE ESTATES Gentlemen; We are submitting a request for waivers from the separation distances stated in Title 18, Alaska Administrative Code Chapter 80.020 On a Health Authority Inspection conducted on April 2, 1987, it was found that the drainfields on Lots 24 and 25 were 95 feet and 97 feet distant from the well on Lot 25. Said well is 142 feet deep. The installation of the septic systems were inspected by a Municipal Inspector who noted the distances to the well. The permit for Lot 24 has a note on it that a waiver is granted for 85 feet from well to tank. The installation was accepted by the Municipality in spite of the noted non-compliance with the code. There is absolutely no possibility that the separation distance of 95 feet constitute a potential for contamination of this well. I request that a waiver be issued for this property. CONSULTING ENGINEER 203 W. 15th AVE 'C" SUITE 203 ANCHORAGE. ALASKA 99501 TELEPHONE: (907) 279-3916 MUNICIPALITY OF ANCHORAGE DIVISION OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES P.O.BOX 6-6650 ANCHORAGE, ALASKA 99502-0650 APRIL 6, 1987 Subject: Fee Schedule For Waivers Gentlemen; I was informed that the fee schedule for the Health Depart- ment is up for review and may be revised in the near future. During this review I would appreciate if an unfair situation caused by this fee schedule could be resolved. In the past the Health Department ~was lax in enforcing the requirements of the Municipal Code. Waivers for the required separation distance of 100 feet between well and elements of the septic system were routinely granted down to 85 feet. In some cases the construction permits will have a waiver noted on them, in other cases the Municipal Inspector has noted on the inspec- tion report that the separation is less than the required 100 feet. No effort was made to satisfy the Code Requirement even if the requirements could easily be meet by moving the tank or the trench. These systems were approved by the Department with the noted deficiencies. At present the Health Department does not honor these wai- vers and requires that a formal waiver request be submitted together with a fee of $ 240.00 for a tank waiver and $ 340.00 for a waiver for the field. There is no quarantee that a formal waiver will be granted. Each case is judged on its own merit. Of the three requests I have submitted this year, for systems with previous approval by the department, all have been granted, but I do wonder what will happen if a request for waiver turned down. These fees and the uncertainty of not knowing if the waivers will be granted is not appropriate when the owner/builder in good faith obtained a permit from the Department to install wells or septic systems with less separation distances than 100 feet or paid an inspection fee to the Department to have a Municipal Inspector inspect the installation to insure compliance with the Code. Another problem situation is when a second builder has installed a well or a septic system too close to his neighbor and the neighbor is seeking refinancing or is selling his house. It is the neighbor who has to obtain the waivers and pay the fees, though he did not create the non-compliance in the first place. I hope some considerations can be given to these situations. c/c A~sembly Members 'X CONSULTING ENGINEER 203 W. 15th AVE "C" SUITE 203 ANCHORAGE, ALASKA 99501 TELEPHONE: (907) 279 3916 SEPTIC SYSTEM ADEQUACY TEST LEGAL: LOCATION: OWNER: RESIDENCE: WELL: SEPTIC SYSTEM: LOT 25, BLOCK 1, BIRCH TREE ESTATES 5245 E147TH AVENUE GARY BOGART ,~ SINGLE FAMILY, THREE BEDROO S PRIVATE, ON SITE ~.,':~'.

TEST PROCEDURE: SYSTEM WAS INSPECTED AND MEASURED ON APRIL 1, 1987. TANK WAS FOUND WITH 4.5 FEET OF COVER AND WITH 51 INCHES OF LIQUID. TRENCH SUMP WAS 5 FEET DEEP WITH 20 INCHES OF LIQUID. ON APRIL 2, 400 GALLONS OF CLEAN WATER WAS ADDED TO THE SUMP WHILE THE WATER LEVEL WAS MONITORED. NO WATER ENTERED THE EMPTY TANK. 400 GALLONS CAUSED THE WATER LEVEL IN THE TRENCH TO RISE 8 INCHES. AFTER 45 MINUTES THE LEVEL HAD DROPPED 2.5 INCHES AND AFTER 24 HOURS THE LEVEL WAS BACK TO 20 INCHES. TEST RESULT: THIS SYSTEM MEETS THE CODE REQUIREMENTS THE MUNICIPALITY OF ANCHORAGE. OF The operational life of all septic systems depends on the local soil conditions, groundwater levels that may fluctuate during the year, and the water usage of the family being served by th~ system. These conditions are outside the control of the evaluator of this septic system. We can therefore not give any estimate of how long the system will continue to meet the operational requi- rements of the Municipality and State.

AT THE BEGINNING OF THE TEST WATER LEVEL WAS FOUND AT 117 FEET BELOW TOP OF CASING. WELL IS 143 FEET DEEP. AFTER 20 MINUTES OF PUMPING WATER LEVEL WAS AT 142 FEET AND REMAINED AT THAT LEVEL FOR AN ADDITIONAL 45 MINUTES. A TOTAL OF 400 GALLONS WERE WITHDRAWN IN A TIME PERIOD OF 55 MINUTES. THE RECOVERY RATE WAS MEASURED FOR 10 MINUTES. DURING THIS TIME THE WELL RECOVERED TO 122 FEET, OR 80%. TEST FOR COLIFORMS: WATER WAS TESTED FOR COLIFORM BACTERIA ON APRIL 1, 1987. TEST WAS NEGATIVE. TEST RESULT: THIS WELL MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF ANCHORAGE. The Municipal requirement for well flow is 150 gallons of water per bedroom per 24 hours.This well surpasses this requirement. The assessment of the condition of this well applies only to the conditions as of this date. The flow rate of the well may change due to subsurface conditions that may not be observed from the surface, and changes in land use and other factors that may impact the conditions of the aquifer feeding the well. ~' _ ....
