1 These distances have been
				  determined for use in clay, silt and loam soils only. The minimum distances
				  required for use in sand or other types of soil shall be determined for the
				  proposed private sewage disposal system and approved by the Department.
				  Approval will be given if the Department determines that the soil will provide
				  treatment of the sewage.
2 For separation distances to
				  closed loop wells, see 77 Ill. Adm. Code
				  920.180.
3 See Section
				  905.20(d)
				  for additional details on water line and sewer separation.
4 If a common property is used,
				  the boundary of the common property shall be used.
5 The building sewer or surface
				  discharge effluent line may be located to within 10 feet of a well or suction
				  line from the pump to the well when cast iron pipe with mechanical joints or
				  Schedule 40 PVC pipe with watertight joints is used for the building sewer or
				  surface discharge effluent line.
6 Any surface discharging system
				  installed, repaired or renovated after January 1, 2014.
7 Class V Injection Wells are
				  defined in Illinois Pollution Control Board rules. They are typically a shallow
				  well used to place fluids directly below the land surface. See, e.g., 35 Ill.
				  Adm. Code
				  704.105.
				  704.106
				  and
				  704.280.
8 A lesser separation distance may
				  be obtained with approval or a waiver from IEPA.
9There shall be 25 feet separation
				  from public water supply water mains and water service lines. The terms public
				  water supply, water main and water service line shall have the same meaning as
				  in the Illinois Pollution Control Board's Public Water Supplies rules. See,
				  e.g., 35 Ill. Adm. Code
				  653.118
				  and
				  653.119.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
Percolation tests shall not be made in frozen ground or
				  ground that has been filled in the preceding 12 months. Percolation tests shall
				  be performed in accordance with the following procedures:
1. Number and Location of Percolation Tests.
				Select an area where the seepage field will be located. When digging the holes,
				avoid animal burrows, large root channels, etc. At least 3 separate percolation
				tests shall be performed at the site of each proposed disposal area. The
				percolation test holes shall be at least 50 feet apart. At least one hole shall
				be located at the lowest elevation of the proposed absorption field area. The 2
				holes with the highest results shall be used to determine percolation
				rate.
2. Depth of Percolation Test
				Hole. Dig or bore the holes with horizontal dimensions approximately 4 to 6
				inches in diameter to the depth of the proposed seepage field or seepage
				bed.
3. Preparation of Test Hole.
a) Carefully pick the bottom and sides of the
				hole with a knife blade or sharp pointed instrument to remove smeared or
				smoothed soil and to provide a natural soil interface into which water may
				percolate.
b) Remove all loose
				material from the hole.
c) Add 2
				inches of coarse gravel to protect the bottom from scouring and sediment. A
				removable hardware cloth screen to line the lower part of the hole also helps
				prevent sloughing of the hole sides during testing.

Illinois Administrative Code › Title 77 - PUBLIC HEALTH › Part 905 - PRIVATE SEWAGE DISPOSAL CODE › Appendix A - Illustrations and Exhibits › ILLUSTRATION I - Seepage Field Construction › Exhibit E - Chamber Sizing Requirements

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
Example: Chamber systems shall be sized on the absorption
					 area of the chamber that is equivalent to the bottom area of a gravel system.
					 The equivalent chamber absorption area per lineal foot is equal to the average
					 inside width of the chamber times an equivalency factor of 2.5. For example, a
					 chamber that has an average inside width of
					 1.25 feet
					 provides an equivalent absorption area of 3.125 square feet per lineal foot.
					 (1.25 feet times
					 the 2.5 equivalency factor equals 3.125 square feet per lineal foot.
To determine the length of chambers required, first
					 calculate the absorption area required for a gravel system based on Appendix A,
					 Illustration H, Exhibit A or Appendix A, Illustration M, Exhibit A. Then divide
					 this area by the equivalent chamber absorption area per lineal foot. For
					 example, if a 3 bedroom house requires 870 square feet of absorption field and
					 chambers
					 1.25 feet wide
					 are being used, then the length of chambers needed is 278 feet. (870 square
					 feet divided by 3.125 square feet per lineal foot equals 278 feet.)
Chamber systems with an average inside dimension equal to
					 or greater than 20 inches shall not be designed to receive an equivalent
					 absorption area of greater than 5 square feet per lineal
					 foot.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) This Part is
			 promulgated by the Illinois Department of Public Health in order to establish
			 requirements for the design and construction of mounds in Illinois which are to
			 be used as private sewage disposal systems. All such mounds must be constructed
			 in accordance with the requirements of this Part.
b) Plan approval must be obtained from the
			 Department or local authority prior to beginning any construction of a mound
			 system in accordance with Section
			 905.190 of
			 the Private Sewage Disposal Code (77 Ill. Adm. Code 905). All individuals who
			 construct such systems must be licensed as a Private Sewage Disposal System
			 Installation Contractor.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
"Absorption Area" means the area of coarse aggregate in the
				absorption bed or trenches in a mound.
"Basal Area" means the area of natural soil under a mound which
				is effective in absorbing effluent.
"Depression" means an area that is sunk below its
				surroundings.
"Dosing" means the application of sewage under pressure to a
				sewage disposal system at constant intervals or in constant amounts per
				application.
"Drainageway" means a natural or artificial channel for the
				discharge of surface water through a given tract of land or region.
"Flood plain" means the land bordering a stream, built up of
				sediments from overflow of the stream and subject to inundation when the stream
				is at flood stage.
"Mound" means a soil absorption sewage treatment system that is
				elevated above the natural ground surface in a suitable fill material as
				defined in
				906.40.
"Perched Water Table" means groundwater which is trapped above
				a normal water table by an impervious formation.
"Percolation Rate" means the downward movement of water through
				a saturated soil.
"Permeable Soil" means soil which has a percolation rate
				between 18 and 180 minutes. (See Appendix A, Illustration G of the Private
				Sewage Disposal Code for meaning of percolation rate and percolation test
				procedure.)
"Shallow Permeable Soil" means pervious soil over creviced or
				porous bed rock, 51/2 feet or less in thickness.
"Slowly Permeable Soil" means soil having a percolation rate of
				between 180 and 360 minutes.

a) Below
			 Absorption Area
1) A mound system shall be
			 provided with a fill material beneath the absorption area (trenches or bed).
			 One of the following fill materials shall be used.

C) FA-3
D) FA-8
E) FA-9
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 77 - PUBLIC HEALTH › Part 906 - PRIVATE SEWAGE MOUND CODE › Section 906.50 - Mound Design

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) A mound
			 system shall include a septic tank for pre-treatment of sewage. The septic tank
			 and piping between the septic tank and the pumping chamber shall conform to the
			 applicable rules in the Private Sewage Disposal Code (77 Ill. Adm. Code
			 905).
b) The design of the mound
			 shall be based upon the expected daily waste water volume using the data
			 contained in Appendix A, Illustration A, of the Private Sewage Disposal Code,
			 (77 Ill. Adm. Code 905) and the soil percolation rate. Mounds shall be sized
			 such that they can accept the daily waste water flow without surface seepage,
			 and the basal area, which is the natural soil area beneath the mound, shall be
			 sufficiently large to conduct the effluent into the underlying topsoil. The
			 system shall also be designed to avoid encroachment of the water table into the
			 mound.
c) For homes having up to
			 and including 4 bedrooms or for flows less than 800 gallons per day the mound
			 shall be designed in accordance with
			 906.60.
			 For homes with 5 or more bedrooms or for flows greater than or equal to 800
			 gallons the mound shall be designed in accordance with
			 906.70.
d) Design of the Absorption Area
1) Sizing the absorption area. The size of
			 the absorption area is dependent upon the daily waste water flow. The design
			 infiltration capacity of the fill material shall be 1.2
			 gal/ft2/day.
2) Absorption Area Design
A) System configuration. The absorption area
			 within the mound shall be constructed as trenches or beds. An illustration of
			 construction using trenches and bed is shown in Appendix A, Illustration A
			 through D. The location of the water table and soil permeability will dictate
			 whether a trench or bed shall be used. In slowly permeable soils, two or three
			 narrow parallel trenches shall be used instead of a bed. Trench widths shall be
			 between 24 and 48 inches. For permeable soils either a narrow rectangular bed
			 or two or three narrow parallel trenches may be used. Bed widths shall not be
			 greater than 10 ft.
B) On sloping
			 sites, the trenches and beds shall be situated perpendicular to the slope in
			 order to prevent the concentration of effluent into a small area as it moves
			 laterally downslope. Sufficient basal area shall be provided so all the
			 effluent infiltrates into the natural soil before it reaches the toe of the
			 mound. With a trench system, the trench spacing shall be such that the effluent
			 from an upslope trench shall be absorbed by the natural soil before reaching
			 the area under the next trench downslope.
C) The bottom of the absorption area within
			 the bed and trenches shall be level and at the same elevation.
Illinois Administrative Code › Title 77 - PUBLIC HEALTH › Part 906 - PRIVATE SEWAGE MOUND CODE › Section 906.70 - Distribution System (for sewage flows in excess of 800 gallons per day)

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) Design criteria
			 for laterals.
1) The variation in discharge
			 rates from the perforations in any lateral shall not exceed ten
			 percent.
2) The variation in
			 discharge rates between the perforations of any two laterals shall not exceed
			 15%.
3) The pressure at the distal
			 ends of the lateral shall be at least 2.5 feet of water.
