M <br />3) Design and size a system expansion that will use conventional wastewater disposal <br />technology (pump- conventional), recirculating filtration (to extend system life), dual <br />nitrification fields (new fields and existing fields), minimize immediate impact to Kennedy <br />tract and preserve nitrification field potential on Kennedy tract <br />4) Continue looking for remote but nearby nitrification field property <br />The strategy as contained within these recommendations is designed to maximize the flexibility <br />in wastewater treatment system technology while preserving the potential to maximize the size <br />and capacity of an expanded treatment system so that the NHSC site remains viable when the <br />existing system eventually fails or wears out. This strategy does have some drawbacks in that it <br />eliminates the use of the front area for driveways and parking (at least in the near term), limits <br />expansion of the use of the facility and increases the system maintenance (low flow fixtures as <br />well as enhanced wastewater treatment system) and operations costs. If it is determined that <br />expanding the use of and access to the facility in the near term are the core values, then these <br />values can be achieved at the cost of losing many, if not most, of the.hardwood trees in the <br />nitrification field areas of the Kennedy tract. <br />If I may provide additional information at this time, please advise. <br />
