Page_of <br /> sTART'UP AND OPERATION <br /> For new construction, prior to use of the POWiS check treatment tank(s) for the presence of painting products, solvents or.other <br /> chemicals that-may-impede the treatment process and/or damage the soil dispersal cell(s). If high concentrations-are detected have-the <br /> contents of the tank(s)removed by a septage servicing operator prior to use. <br /> System start up shall not occur when soil conditions are frozen at the Infiltrative surface. <br /> During extended power outages pump tanks may fill above normal highwater levels. When power is restored fhe excess wastewater will <br /> be discharged to the dispersal cell(s) in one large dose and may overload them,resulting in the,backup or surface discharge''of effluent.` <br /> To avoid this situation have the contents of the pump tank'removed by a Septage Servicing Operator prior to restoring power to the <br /> effluent pump or contact a Plumber or POWfS Maintalner to assist in manually operating the pump controls to restore normal levels <br /> within the pump tank. <br /> Do not drive or park vehicles over tanks and dispersal cells. Do not drive or park over, or otherwise disturb or compact,the area within <br /> 15 feet down slope of any mound or at-grade soil absorption area. <br /> Reduction or elimination of the following from the wastewater stream may improve the performance and prolong the life of the POWTS; <br /> antibiotics; baby wipes; cigarette butts; condoms; cotton swabs; degreasers; dental floss; diapers; disinfectants; fat; foundation drain <br /> (sump pump) discharge; fruit and vegetable peelings; gasoline; grease; herbicides; meat scraps; medications; oil; painting products; <br /> pesticides;sanitary napkins;tampons;and water softener brine. <br /> ABANDONMENT <br /> When the POWiS falls and/or is permanently taken out of service the following steps shall be taken to insure that1he system is properly <br /> and safely abandoned In compliance with chapter 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 Septage Servicing Operator. <br /> • After pumping, all tanks and pits shall be excavated and removed or their covers removed and the,void space filled with soil, <br /> gravel or another inert solid material. <br /> CONTINGENCY PLAN <br /> If the POWiS fails and cannot be repaired the following measures have been, or must be taken, to provide a code compliant <br /> replacement system: <br /> _. . <br /> ❑ A-suitable replacement area has been evaluated and may be utilized for the location of a replacement soil absorption <br /> system. The replacement area should be protected from disturbance and compaction and should not be Infringed upon by- <br /> required'setbacks from existing and proposed'structure;lot lines and wells. Failure to'prote'dt the nepr4cement 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 suiteblq replacement area Is not available due to setback and/or soil limitations. Barring advances in POWiS technology <br /> a holding tank maybe Installed as alast resort to replace the failed POWiS. <br /> The site has not been evaluated to identify a suitable replacement area. Upon failure of the POWfS a soil and site <br /> evaluation must be`performed to locate a suitable replacement area. If no replacement area is available a holding tank may <br /> be installed as a last resort to replace the failed POWiS. <br /> ❑ Mound and at-grade soil absorption systems may be reconstructed in place following removal of the biomat at the <br /> Infiltrative surface. Reconstructions of such systems must comply with the rules in effect at that time.. <br /> <<WARNING>> <br /> SEPTIC, PUMP AND OTHER TREATMENT TANKS MAY CONTAIN LETHAL GASSES AND/OR INSUFFICIENT OXYGEN. DO NOT <br /> ENTER A SEPTIC,PUMP OR OTHER TREATMENT TANK UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. DEATH MAY RESULT. RESCUE OF A <br /> PERSON FROM THE INTERIOR OF A TANK MAY BE DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE. <br /> ADDITIONAL COMMENTS <br /> POWT INSTALLER POWiS MAINTAINER <br /> Name 1&ayc� NA <br /> ame — � ICG t/i C� <br /> Phone' - I5 '•. _ Phone I .5 �P is <br /> SEPTAGE P <br /> SERVICING OPERATOR LIMPER) LOCAL REGULATORY AUTHORITY <br /> Name A'- 'C' f Name uye�2 . .. <br /> Phone -i IS U5(o - -70 —( Phone -715. 3Lfq - al 3 <br /> ThIQ AM9,manr WAa drafted by fhn atnfra nr rho rr n 1 PRP MamIIPNP and WOIIahAm Cnllnh/-Inninn Anrl anonrip% In n nlinnro W*h rhanfnr <br />
