❑ Mound,At-Grade,In-Ground Pressure <br /> The inspection shall include recording the levels of ponding,if any in the observation tubes and a visual inspection for any <br /> evidence of surface seepage or discharge.Any discharge to the ground surface must be promptly reported to the regulatory <br /> authority. Ponding greater than 75%of the height of the component may indicate overloading or impending hydraulic failure <br /> necessitating more frequent monitoring. <br /> The pressure distribution system is provided with an opening at the end of each lateral to be used for flushing.The laterals <br /> should be flushed at least once every three(3)years.Pressure checks of systems with multiple laterals should be done to <br /> ensure that equal distribution of effluent is occurring to promote the longevity of the system. <br /> REPORTS <br /> Reports for maintenance, inspection,and monitoring shall be submitted in accordance with COMM 83.55 Wisconsin Administrative <br /> Code. <br /> ABANDONMENT <br /> When the POWTS fails and/or is permanently taken out of service the following steps shall be taken to ensure that the system is <br /> properly and safely abandoned in compliance with Ch.COMM 83.33, Wisconsin Administrative Code. <br /> - All piping to tanks and pits shall be disconnected and the abandoned pipe openings sealed. <br /> - The contents of all tanks and pits shall be removed and properly disposed of by a Se ea a Servicing Operator. <br /> - After pumping,all tanks and pits shall be excavated and removed or their covers removed and the void space filled with <br /> soil,gravel or other inert solid material. <br /> CONTINGENCY PLAN <br /> If the POWTS fails and cannot be repaired the following measures have been,or must be taken,to provide a code compliant <br /> replacement system: <br /> A suitable replacement area has been evaluated and may be utilized for the location of a replacement soil absorption system. <br /> The replacement area should be protected from disturbance and compaction and should not be infringed upon by required <br /> setbacks from existing and proposed structure,lot lines and wells.Failure to protect the replacement area will result in the <br /> need for a new soil from existing and proposed structure,lot lines and wells.Failure to protect the replacement area will <br /> result in the need for a new soil and site evaluation to establish a suitable replacement area.Replacement systems must <br /> comply with the rules in effect at that time. <br /> ❑ A suitable replacement area is not available due to setback and/or soil limitations.Barring advances in POWTS technology a <br /> holding tank may be installed as a last resort to replace the failed POWTS. <br /> ❑ The site has not been evaluated to identify a suitable replacement area. Upon failure of the POWTS a soil and site evaluation <br /> must be performed to locate a suitable replacement area.If no replacement area is available a holding tank may be installed <br /> as a last resort to replace the failed POWTS. <br /> ❑ Mound and at-grade soil absorption systems may he reconstructed in place following removal of the biomat at the infiltrative <br /> surface. Reconstructions of such systems must comply with the rules in effect at that time. <br /> :<WARNING>> <br /> EPTIC,PUMP AND OTHER TREATMENT TANKS MAY CONTIAN LETHAL GASSES AND/OR INSUFFICIENT <br /> OXYGEN.DO NOT ENTER A SEPTIC,PUMP OR OTHER TREATMENT TANK UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. <br /> TATH MAY RESULT.RESCUE OF A PERSON FROM THE INTERIOR OF A TANK MAY BE DIFFICULT OR <br /> "POSSIBLE. <br /> DDITIONAL COMMENTS <br /> JWTS INSTALLER POWTS MAINTAINER <br /> 'me E)APREI L I.U.WEU— MP 221073 Name <br /> lone L715) 2,?3—to560 Phone <br /> ?PTAGE SERVICING OPERATOR(Pumper) LOCAL REGULATORY AUTHORITY <br /> ime sTejL-15 st pTe Agency13UKkJvrr CoWJt 20 iNG <br /> one (l15) $bb- HIqS Phone its _3i4,?- 2138 <br /> WPDATAIERTOWTS OWNER'S MANUAL.doc <br /> Page_of <br />
