C-A A-G e—K <br /> Mound System Management Plan <br /> Pursuant to Comm 83.54, Wis. Adm. Code <br /> Septic Tank <br /> The septic tank shall be maintained by an individual certified to service septic tanks under s. 29' =c, Slays. -h:e :--ntents or ;he <br /> septic tank shall be disposed of in accordance with NR 113, Wis,Adm. Code. The operating concihon :f :he se-:;c tarK and <br /> outlet filter shall be assessed at least once every 3 years by inspection. The outlet filter shall be ::eine," as ,:ecessar :c <br /> ensure proper operation. The filter cartridge should not be removed unless provisions are mace retain sciics :ne :ank :nat <br /> may slough off the filterwhen removed from its enclosure. If the filter is equipped with an alarm, :re filter snail oe service," if <br /> the alarm is activated continuously. Intermittent filter alarms may indicate surge flows or an tmpecaing _onrinucus alarm. -he <br /> septic tank shall have its contents removed when the volume of sludge and scum in the tank exceeds i,- the limo:," volume or <br /> the tank. If the contents of the tank are not removed at the time of a triennial assessment, maintenance oersonne: shall acvise <br /> the owner of when the next service needs to be perf&med to maintain less than maximum scum and sluoge acccmuiation in <br /> the tank. Thi addition of biological or chemical additives to enhance septic tank performance is ,encmily not recuirec. <br /> However, if such products are used they shall be approved for septic tank use by the Department of Commerce. �arery and <br /> Buildings Division. <br /> iPump Tank <br /> The pump (do$ing)tank shall be inspected at least once every 3 years. All switches, alarms, and pumps shall oe .este," to <br /> verify proper operation. If an effluent filter is installed within the tank it shall be inspected and ser. cad as necesr, r <br /> Mound and Pressure Distribution System <br /> No trees or shrubs should be planted on the mound. Plantings may be made around the mounc'_ :erineter, enc 'he mcunc <br /> shall be seeded and mulched as necessary to prevent erosion and to provide some protection frci- tros: ,)enerr.�-n T arflc <br /> (other than for vegetative maintenance) on the mound is not recommended since soil compaction may hinder aerr:aen sr the <br /> infiltrative surface within the mound and snow compaction in the winter will promote frost penetration. CJId weather <br /> installations (October-February) dictate that the mound be heavily mulched for frost protection. <br /> Influent quality into the mound system may not exceed 220 mglL BODS, 150 mg/L TSS, and 30 mc;_ FCG. intlur.nt fico may <br /> Oct exceed maximum design flow specified in the permit for this installation. <br /> he pressure distribution system is provided with a Flushing point at the end of each lateral, and it s recommence," that each <br /> ateral be flushed of accumulated solids at least once every 18 months. When a pressure test is ;;erformed it should be <br /> ompared to the initial test when the system was installed to determine if orifice dogging has occ erred and if orifis cleaninc s <br /> required to maintain equal distribution within the dispersal cell. <br /> Observation pipes within the dispersal cell shall be checked for effluent ponding. Ponding levels shall be repcnec c the owner, <br /> pind any levels above 4 Inches considered as an Impending hydraulic failure requiring additional, ;pore frequent monitoring. <br /> eneral <br /> )this system shall be operated in accordance with Comm 82-84 Wis.Adm. Code, and shall maintained in accordance with its' <br /> or'lno t manual f d local or state rules pertaining to system maintenance and maintenance <br /> eporting. <br /> a one should ever enter a septic or pump tank since dangerous gases may be present that could cause death. Septic and <br /> ump tank abandonment shall be in accordance with Comm 83.33,Wis.Adm. Code when the tanks are no longer :sed as <br /> OWTS components. <br /> epdc or pump tank manhole risers, access risers and covers should be inspected for water tightness and soundness. Access <br /> penings used for service and assessment shall be sealed watertight upon the completion of service. Any opening deemed <br /> nsound, defective, or subject to failure must be replaced. Exposed access openings greater than a-inches in diameter shall <br /> e secured by an effective locking device to prevent accidental or unauthorized entry into a tank or component. <br /> Contingency Plan <br /> If the septic tank or any of its components become defective the tank or component shall be repaired or replaced :c ':keep the <br /> system in proper operating conditJon. <br /> I'f the dosing tank, pump, pump controls, alarm or related wiring becomes defective the defective component shall ee <br /> I�nmecilately repaired or replaced with a component of the same or equal performance. <br /> I/the mound component fails to accept wastewater or begins to discharge wastewater to the ground surface, it will ze repaired <br /> r replaced in its' present location by increasing basal area if toe leakage occurs or by removing biologically clogged adsorption <br /> nd dispersal media, and related piping, and replacing.said components as deemed necessary to drj-i the system into proper <br /> perating condition. <br /> Questions on the operation or maintenance of this system should be directed to y;ur county zoning or heolth inspector <br /> �9 e s-G - 7o,> 7 <br />
