) Community (Cluster) System - ANS-A wastewater series and treatment machine that
provides shared collection, remedy, and disposal of domestic wastewater from a couple of
parcels or a couple of gadgets of personally deeded property. Such a gadget would possibly
serve a small subdivision or a condominium complicated. It is imperative with such systems
that a few shape of not unusual ownership and management be hooked up and authorised
via the Department.
2) Large Onsite Wastewater System - ANS-An person machine that treats and disposes of
domestic wastewater discharges in extra of fifteen hundred (1500) gallons according to day
ACCESSIBILITY - ANS-S.C. Code Sections 44-fifty five-1410 and 5-31-2010 authorizes
county and municipal governments to determine if a wastewater treatment facility is
obtainable to houses. Where annexation or easements to cross adjoining assets are
required to connect to a wastewater remedy facility, the wastewater remedy facility shall no
longer be taken into consideration reachable.
All grease traps must be without delay on hand from the floor, and should be geared up with
an extended outlet sanitary tee terminating six (6) to 12 (12) inches above the tank bottom.
The minimal get entry to beginning will be eighteen (18) inches in diameter. - ANS-
ALTERNATIVE INFILTRATION TRENCH PRODUCTS- - ANS-- Products mainly designed to
update or eliminate the combination generally utilized in subsurface infiltration trenches.
Such merchandise should be authorised to be used by using the Department and have to
adhere to required equivalency values mounted herein
ALTERNATIVE SYSTEM - ANS-A device incorporating layout modifications of the proposed
subsurface wastewater infiltration trench vicinity or geometry for the purpose of achieving
compliance with required setbacks and offset to the zone of saturation and/or restrictive
horizons. No such machine will be applied except the Department has mounted a selected
wellknown.
APPLICANT - ANS-- A property proprietor, trendy contractor or agent representing the
property owner, or developer who seeks a allow to construct and perform an onsite
wastewater gadget.
COLOR CHARTS - ANS-Munsell System or equal) - Charts bearing numerous shade chips
mounted through a diagnosed color device which use 3 elements—hue, cost, and
chroma—to make up a particular shade notation. The notation is recorded if the form of hue,
price, and chroma (e.G. 10YR 5/6). The three attributes of colour are organized inside the
gadget in orderly scales of equal visible steps, which might be used to measure and
, describe colour as it should be under popular situations of illumination through evaluating
soil samples to shade chips on numerous charts.
CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM - ANS-An onsite wastewater device that makes use of a
community of conventional wastewater infiltration trenches established in the evidently
occurring soil for the treatment and disposal of home wastewater.
CRITICAL AREA - ANS-S. C. Code Section forty eight-39-10(J) defines vital vicinity as the
following: 1) coastal waters; 2) tidelands; three) beaches; four) beach/dune systems which
are the regions from the mean excessive-water mark to the setback line as determined in S.
C. Code Section forty eight-39-280.
CURTAIN DRAIN - ANS-A subsurface interceptor drain this is set up to acquire and redirect
seasonal groundwater as it flows via the soil profile to the precise discharge point
cuts of two (2) ft or more vertical height while any a part of the wastewater infiltration trench
is to be placed better in elevation than the invert of the reduce or embankment - ANS-2
DOMESTIC WASTEWATER OR SEWAGE - ANS-The untreated liquid and strong human
frame waste and the beverages generated by using water-the usage of furnishings and
home equipment, which includes the ones related to meals service operations. For the
functions of this regulation, home wastewater shall no longer encompass commercial
process wastewater.
EFFLUENT - ANS-The liquid discharged from a septic tank, effluent pump station, or other
sewage remedy device.
ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE WATERS - ANS-Outstanding useful resource waters
(ORW), Shellfish Harvesting Waters (SFH), and Trout-Natural Waters (TN) as described in
R.61-68 and classified in R.Sixty one- sixty nine, and together with lakes greater than forty
(forty) acres in size and the Atlantic Ocean, regardless of their classifications in R.61-69.
EXISTING SYSTEM - - ANS-- An onsite wastewater device, which has received very last
production approval or has been serving a legally occupied house or shape.
EXPANSIVE SOILS - - ANS-Soils containing widespread amounts of expansible-layer clay
minerals (smectites) as evidenced in the area through classifications of "Very Sticky," "Very
Plastic" and wherein "Slickensides" are gift while evaluated in accordance with the Field
Book. Such soil horizons are considered to be restrictive for onsite wastewater systems.
FAILING ONSITE WASTEWATER SYSTEM - ANS-An onsite wastewater device that is
discharging effluent in an incorrect manner or has ceased to function properly.
FIBERGLASS REINFORCED PLASTIC - - ANS-A fibrous glass and plastic combination that
exhibits a excessive power to weight ratio and is highly proof against corrosion
FIELD BOOK FOR DESCRIBING AND SAMPLING SOILS - ANS-A discipline guide posted
