Re: On-Site Wastewater Disposal, E~TF
Dear Ms. Richter:
This will continue correspondence on the referenced subject ending with your
letter dated May 17, 1985. We have reviewed the proposed site (NW/4 of
Section 29 - T16N - R1E) for the Eklutna Water Treatment Facility (EWTF) and
the general topography of that general area. There does not appear to be a
problem in permitting the installatioa of an on-site wastewater dispesal
system at the EWTF site even though the site is located in a watershed area.
The location of the o~-site system should allow maximum separation from any
stream or t:ributary, and both this office and the Alaska DEC should review and
approve the system design and location prior to the commencement of construc-
tiono The permit to construct and the permit to operate the on-site system
will be issued by the A~laska DEC 1. oc~. office.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Robinson~
As you are aware, the Anchorage Water and Wastewater Utility is
presently in the design stage for the Eklutna Water Treatment
Facility (EWTF) which is to be located in the northwest 1/4 of
Section 29, T.16 N.~ R.i E. The EW'rF site is located in an area
that was recently zoned as a Watershed District.
We understand that water- treatment plants and accessory uses are
permitted land uses within a Watershed District (21.40.250). The
purpose of this letter is to request approval in the form of a
variance from the Health and Environmental Protection Department
to install an approved septic tank/soil absorption system for
domestic waste disposal at the EWTF.
The EWTF is being designed to provide sanitary facilities to 11
full-time operating personnel and 9 full-time administrative and
maintenance personnel, as well as up to 2 busloads (30 people per
bus) of visitors per day. Conservatiw~ly~ ultimate wastewater
flow is projected to be a maximum of 750 gallons per day.
The Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADE[~) has
reviewed the preliminary plans for the EWTF and has appreved those
plans. In addition, attached to this request is a letter from
Bruce Erickson~ District Offices Coordinator, stating that ADEC
has no objection to the installation of an approwed septic
tank/soil absorption system at the EWTF.
