Site Evaluation Procedures for Individual Sewage Treatment Systems In Disturbed Soils

摘要

Soil pedogenic processes produce an aggregation of soil particles which results in the development of soil structure. In turn, the development of soil structure incrreases the porosity and interconnection of soil pores. This process has a positive affect on the rate of fluid movement. When soils are moved, manipulated or compacted, the soil structure is demaged or destroyed or particles rearranged, which for many soil textures and flow regimes, reduces the soil's ability to transmit fluids.
