On-Site Sewage Disposal: Site Suitability, System Selection and Soil Absorption Area Sizing

摘要

Estimates of the reliability of on-site effluent disposal systems indicate that less than 50% perform satisfactorily over their design life. It is the objective of this report to describe a prototype computer information delivery system developed to improve site suitability decision making, on-site effluent disposal system selection, and soil absorption area sizing decisions. The completed computer model is written in the interactive computer language called APL. In the process of developing the model, several other studies were completed.
