Length: 144 wordsOfficial source
(a) The following are minimum separation distances from the bottom of the proposed absorption trench to the true water table (aquifer) and bedrock.
(b)(1) These conditions shall be met before the soil is considered suitable for subsurface renovation.
(2) True water tables. Minimum hydraulic conductivity in depth zone extending six inches (6”) above and twelve inches (12”) below planned depth to base of soil absorption trench:
Low or Moderate Hydraulic Conductivity 24 inches
High Hydraulic Conductivity 36 inches
(3) Bedrock. Minimum hydraulic conductivity in depth zone extending six inches (6”) above and twelve inches (12”) below planned depth to base of soil absorption trench:
Low or Moderate Hydraulic Conductivity with redoximorphic features
indicating SWT of moderate duration or longer. 18 inches
Low or Moderate Hydraulic Conductivity with no redoximorphic features
or redoximorphic features indicating a brief SWT. 24 inches
High Hydraulic Conductivity 36 inches
