					 permeabilUitnys. uitable
(2) To
				  provide for adequate soil treatment capability, a minimum of 3 feet of
				  unsaturated soil shall exist between high groundwater elevation or bedrock and
				  the bottom of the infiltrative surface. Greater vertical separation may be
				  required in accordance with the regulations of the city, county, or district
				  health department having jurisdiction under the authority granted by Act No.
				  368 of the Public Acts of 1978, as amended, being §325.1101 et seq. of the
				  Michigan Compiled Laws. Greater vertical separation may also be required where
				  groundwater mounding underneath the soil absorption system or other factors
				  would limit the treatment to protect on-site water supplies or surface waters.
				  For lots or development sites less than 1 acre, the soil below the infiltrative
				  surface of the absorption system shall meet the texture and permeability
				  requirements of Table 3.
(3) If the
				  required 3 feet of unsaturated soils cannot be provided naturally, then the
				  department will consider proposals for fill. Fill is acceptable only if the
				  depth to high groundwater elevation or bedrock, or both, is a minimum of 2 feet
				  below the natural, unaltered ground surface. Fill is only acceptable over soils
				  specified in Table 3 as suitable by texture and permeability.
(4) Fill materials shall consist of medium to
				  coarse sands in accordance with the USDA classification system without
				  excessive fines. Fill materials may be required to be placed for both the
				  initial and reserve sewage disposal system areas before final recording of the
				  plat or approval for on-site sewage disposal of a development site that is less
				  than 1 acre in size. Any of the following persons demonstrating competence
				  shall provide certification of fill materials and placement to the department:
(a) A licensed professional
				  engineer.
(b) A professional
				  surveyor.
(c) A registered
				  sanitarian.
(d) A certified
				  professional geologist.
(e) A
				  certified professional soil scientist.
(f) A professional approved by the
				  department.

Current through Vol. 24-12, July 15, 2024
Rule 422.
(1) If
				  suitable soils, as specified in Table 3, are not present within the upper 6
				  feet of the soil profile and alternative methods of sewage treatment and
				  disposal have been considered under R 560.424, then the department may approve
				  the use of deep cut excavations to expose acceptable underlying soils that
				  exist within 20 feet of the natural grade.
(2) Acceptable underlying soils shall consist
				  of a minimum of 4 feet of soils which have a permeability of greater than 30
				  minutes per inch and which are not permanently or seasonally saturated as
				  confirmed by soil profile evaluations.
(3) Deep cut excavations are not allowed if
				  the soils that are cut through are seasonally or permanently saturated.
				  Exceptions may be considered where drainage of groundwater from overlying soils
				  would not be expected to adversely impact the function of the sewage disposal
				  system.
(4) Deep cut excavations
				  are not allowed unless hydrogeologic information confirms that the underlying
				  soils being exposed have no direct hydraulic connection to a useable aquifer
				  intended for drinking or household purposes.
(5) For deep cut excavations the department
				  may require alternative methods of sewage treatment. The department may require
				  such excavations to be completed and filled with medium to coarse sands in
				  accord with the USDA classification system before final recording of the plat
				  or approval for on-site sewage disposal of a development site that is less than
				  1 acre in size. Any of the following persons demonstrating competence shall
				  provide certification of fill materials and placement to the department:
(a) A licensed professional
				  engineer.
(b) A professional
				  surveyor.
(c) A registered
				  sanitarian.
(d) A certified
				  professional geologist.
(e) A
				  certified professional soil scientist.
(f) A professional approved by the
				  department.

(1) The
				  department may approve the use of a proposal that includes surface and
				  subsurface drainage systems to control high groundwater elevation conditions
				  for a development site that is less than 1 acre in size or
				  subdivision.
(2) Before approval,
				  the owner or his designated representative shall install drainage systems
				  specified in subrule (1) of this rule and shall monitor high groundwater
				  elevations during the normally wettest time period of the year and at least
				  from March 1 to June 1. Any of the following persons shall provide monitoring
				  results to the department:
(a) A licensed
				  professional engineer.
