I don't <br />know where things stand on the project right now, so lot me or Torn know if you need anything else. <br />We in Environmental Health do not have further work planned for the site until the County is ready to <br />finalize the soil work on the Kennedy tract or begin evaluation of the Fuqua tract. It was our <br />understanding that the Fuqua tract may also be considered as part of the project. <br />First, we ran some numbers both for the existing wastewater flow and for the potential of expanding the <br />septic system to 6,000 gallons per day. This is the most current figure we have to work with, but keep in <br />mind this is an approximation of the useable area of good soils on the Kennedy tract after preliminary <br />soil work only. Further investigation and testing are necessary before any figure can be confirmed and <br />permits issued. <br />The design flow for the current use of the building, based on usage numbers from Recreation and Parks, <br />is just over 3500 gallons per day. The current septic system is sized for 2,400 gallons per day, so it is <br />overloaded by approximately 45% with the existing use.
