{' -3- <br /> George Benway: Negative. I go by there every day. <br /> Mr. Hennigan: Barbara, even if this were the case, the importance here for the shell- <br /> fish, as I have already explained, the only count that they have ever gotten out of <br /> there in the past eight years has been in the neighborhood of 40 coliform. And these <br /> systems have been in existence. There has been a system at the old location for 25 to <br /> 30 years. <br /> Barbara: I think my question,and I should make it more clear, is when Courtemanche <br /> wrote that letter was he looking :,on both sides? <br /> Mr. Hennigan: Oh, yes. If you will read the letter. As a matter of fact, Bob has maps <br /> and if you will refer to your guidelines there you will notice that they give alot of <br /> credence to the shellfish statements as your guides do including fill. <br /> Barbara: I realize that. It was just not clear in that letter. <br /> Pauline gives Barbara a copy of the letter to read. <br /> Charles: What youare doing in essence here, you found ground water in both sites within <br /> feet? I want to make this clear in my mind. <br /> Mr. Hennigan: I am glad you asked that question because if you will read the drawing and <br /> yoti � Mimiliar with this discipline, Charlie, Sanitary Engineering, you will know that at <br /> elevation of 6 feet on those lots, you will find water at 10 feet. We do not have any <br /> concern about shellfish because the main criteria of shellfish are oxygen principally and <br /> salinity. The only, bacteria count that anyone has every gotten out of there has been <br /> fecal excrement from wild life not from humans. <br /> Charles: The only concern with the closeness fto:.i this side of the road there would be <br /> of a lateral transference, a lateral flow rather than a . . . (interrupted) <br /> Mr. Hennigan: But the permeability. rights if you have read the notice of intent, at 20 <br /> inches per hour with soil as excellent as this is that has an infiltrative capacity. This <br /> is ideal. The only soil that is any better in all the whole United States is green soil <br /> found in New Jersey. <br /> Charles: I'll go along with that, Tim, but what I am asking about in these two particu- <br /> lar areas where your leaching fields appear (interrupted) <br /> Mr. Hennigan: You're talking about lateral flow or surface flow. Now there is a differ- <br /> ence. <br /> Charles: No. What I want to arrive at is you are talking of bringing fill -in, right? <br /> Mr. Hennigan: Yes. <br /> Charles: This will mean that you will be raising this level. What I am getting at is <br /> when you put your cess pit in and you're using pits in both instances, right? <br /> Mr. Hennigan: No, Charlie, this is not a pit. <br /> Charles: Pre-Cast. <br /> Mr. Hennigan: It's a pre-cast. Actually what this is, there is 51 to 512 sq, ft. of <br /> leaching area on the surface plus your depth which gives you a little over 200 sq, ft. <br />
