Page of <br /> All other services, including but not limited to the servicing of effluent filters,mechanical or pressurized components, pretreatment unitts, and any <br /> servicing at intervals of s12 months,shall be performed by a certified POINTS Maintainer. <br /> A service report shall be Provided to the Environmental Health and Labs Division of Public Health Madison and Dane County within 30 days of <br /> completion of any service event. <br /> START UP AND OPERATION <br /> For new construction,prior to use of the POWTS,check treatment tank(s)for the presence of painting products,solvents or other chemicals or sediment <br /> that may impede the treatment process and/or damage the soli absorption cell(s).if high amounts of these materials are detected in the tanks,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 high water levels.When power is restored the excess wastewater will be discharged <br /> to the dispersal cell(s)In one large dose and may overload them resulting in the backup or surface discharge of effluent To avoid this situation have the <br /> contests of the pump tank removed by a Septage Servicing Operator prior to restoring power to the effluent pump or contact a Plumber or POINTS <br /> Maintainer to assist In manually operating the pump controls restore normal levels within the pump tank. <br /> Do not drive or park vehicles over tanks and dispersal cal Do not drive or park over,or otherwise disturb or compact,the area within 15 feet down <br /> 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:antibiotics,baby <br /> wipes, cigarette butts,condoms,cotton swabs,degreasdrs,dental floss,diapers,disinfectants,fat,foundation drain(sump pump)discharge,fruit and <br /> . vegetable peelings,gasoline,greases,herbf sides,meat scraps,medications,oils,painting products,pesticides,sanitary napkins,tampons,and water <br /> softener brine. <br /> ABANDONMENT <br /> When the POWTS falls and/or Is permanently taken out of service the following steps shall be taken to insure that the system is properly and safely <br /> abandoned in compliance with s.Comm 83.33,Wisconsin Administrative Coda: <br /> • AU piping to tanks,pits and other soil absorption systems 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(pumper). <br /> • After pumping,all tanks and pits shall be excavated and removed or their covers removed and the void space filled with soil,gravel or another inert <br /> solid material <br /> CONTINGENCY PLAN <br /> if the POINTS fails and cannot be repaired the following measures have been,or must be taken,to provide a code compliant replacement system: <br /> A suitable replacement area has been evaluated and may be utilized for the location of a replacement soil absorption system.The replacement <br /> area should be protected from disturbance and compaction and should not be infringed upon by required setbacks from existing and proposed <br /> structure,lot lines and wells.Failure to protect the replacement area will result in the need for a new soil and site evaluation to establish a suitable <br /> replacement area.Replacement systems must comply with the rules In effect at the time of their permit issuance. <br /> ❑ A suitable replacement area is not available due to setback and/or soil limitations.If the soil absorption system cannot be rehabilitated and barring <br /> advances in POWTS technology,a holding tank may be installed as a last resort. <br /> ❑ The site has not been evaluated to identify a suitable replacement area.Upon failure of the POWTS a soil and site evaluation must be performed to <br /> locate a suitable replacement area,if no replacement area is available a holding tank may be installed as a last resort to replace the failed POWTS. <br /> ❑ Mound and at-grade soil absorption systems may be reconstructed in place following removal of the biornat at the infiltrative surface. <br /> Reconstructions of such systems must comply with the rules in effect at that time. <br /> WARNING: TREATMENT TANKS AND HOLDING TANKS MAY CONTAIN POISONOUS GASSES AND LACK SUFFICIENT <br /> leOXYGEN TO SUPPORT LIFE. NEVER ENTER A TREATMENT TANK OR HOLDING TANK UNDER ANY <br /> CIRCUMSTANCE. DEATH MAY RESULT. ESCAPE OR RESCUE FROM THE INTERIOR OF A TANK iS VERY <br /> DIFFICULT. <br /> ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br /> , <br /> POINTS INSTALLER <br /> POINTS MAINTAINER <br /> Name: / h11)12FIrd W. t ll.it-tQt<Z Name: <br /> Phone: (,,r)p_ Q,31 -b tO 3 [Phone: <br /> I <br /> SEPTAGE SERVICING OPERATOR(PUMPER) LOCAL REGULATORY AUTHORITY <br /> ■ <br /> Name: <br /> Name; pA-1.,t,t= COUti.ITY Pt4t3L,c b-1EAc.-rI.t <br /> Phone: ,Phone: (Do S-<9.4.a.-[0 515 <br /> This document is Intended to meet minimum requirements of Ch.Comm 83.22(2)(b)(1)(d)&(f)and 83.54(1),(2)&(3),Wisconsin Administrative Code. <br /> Use of this document dpes not guarantee the performance of the POWTS. <br /> 3/8/2010•POWTSMGTplan.doc <br />
