A-382.30 (4)-3. SLOPE BETWEEN MANHOLES IN CONVENTIONAL GRAVITY SEWERS. Section NR 110.13(2) (c) reads:

"Slope.

1. Conventional gravity sewers shall be laid with uniform slope between manholes. All sewers shall be designed and constructed to give average velocities of not less than 60 centimeters per second (2.0 feet per second) when flowing full. The minimum slopes in Table 1 shall be provided. Slopes less than 0.4 % may be permitted for 20 centimeter (8 inch) sewers. In such cases, however, the slope may not be less than 0.3 %. The department [DNR] will approve these sewers only when the owner demonstrates that physical circumstances warrant the lesser slope. Furthermore, approval will not be granted until the department [DNR] has received written assurance from the operating authority that the authority will provide the additional maintenance which may result from the sedimentation due to decreased velocities."

NR 812.08 Well, reservoir and spring location.

(1) GENERAL. Any potable or nonpotable well or reservoir shall be located:

(a) So the well and its surroundings can be kept in a sanitary condition.

(b) At the highest point on the property consistent with the general layout and surroundings if reasonably possible, but in any case protected against surface water flow and flooding and not downslope from a contamination source on the property or on an adjacent property regardless of what was installed first, the well or the contamination source. When a contamination source is installed upslope from a well in violation of this section after the well construction has been completed, the violation is not the responsibility of the well driller, except if the well driller knew or should have known of the proposed upslope installation of the contamination source. When there is no location on the property where this requirement can be met, a well may be constructed without a variance if it is constructed with a minimum of 20 or more feet of well casing pipe than is required by ss. NR 812.12 and 812.13 and Tables I and II or with a minimum of 60 feet of well casing pipe provided that the minimum well casing pipe depth requirements of s. NR 812.12 or 812.13 and Table I or II are met. This exception does not apply to high capacity, school or wastewater treatment plant wells. A well or reservoir is located downslope from a contamination source, regardless of the presence or absence of a structure between the well and the contamination source, if:

1. The ground surface elevation at the well or reservoir is lower than the elevation at the contamination source, and

2. Surface water that washes over the contamination source would travel within eight feet of the well or reservoir, or over the well or reservoir.

(c) As far away from any known or possible source of contamination as the general layout of the premises and the surroundings allow.

Note: Section PSC 114.234 requires that a horizontal clearance of at least 3/4 of the vertical clearance of the conductors, including overhead power lines to the ground required by Rule 232 shall be maintained between open conductors and wells. Persons installing wells must comply with this requirement.

(d) Such that any potential contaminant source, not identified in this section or in Table A, is a minimum of 8 feet from the well or reservoir.

(e) Every well shall be located so that it is reasonably accessible with proper equipment for cleaning, treatment, repair, testing, inspection and any other maintenance that may be necessary.

(2) RELATION TO BUILDINGS. In relation to buildings, the location of any potable or nonpotable well shall be as follows:

(a) When a well is located outside and adjacent to a building, it shall be located so that the center line of the well extended vertically will clear any projection from the building by not less than 2 feet and so that the top of the well casing pipe extends at least 12 inches above the final established ground grade.

(b) When a structure is built over a drilled well, it shall have an access hatch or removable hatch, or provide other access to allow for pulling of the pump. The well casing pipe shall extend at least 12 inches above the floor and be sealed watertight at the point where it extends through the floor.

(c) No well may be located, nor a building constructed, such that the well casing pipe will terminate in or extend through the basement of any building or terminate under the floor of a building having no basement. The top of a well casing pipe may terminate in a walkout basement meeting the criteria of s. NR 812.42(9) (b) 1. to 4. A well may not terminate in or extend through a crawl space having a below ground grade depression or excavation.

(3) RELATION TO FLOODPLAINS.

(a) A potable or nonpotable well may be constructed, reconstructed or replaced in a floodfringe provided that the top of the well is terminated at least 2 feet above the regional flood elevation for the well site.

(b) A well may be reconstructed or replaced in a floodway provided that the top of the well is terminated at least 2 feet above the regional flood elevation for the well site.

(c) A well may not be constructed on a floodway property that is either undeveloped or has building structures but no existing well.

(d) The regional flood elevation may be obtained from the department.

(4) RELATION TO CONTAMINATION SOURCES. Minimum separating distances between any new potable or nonpotable well, reservoir or spring and existing sources of contamination; or between new sources of contamination and existing potable or nonpotable wells, reservoirs or springs shall be maintained as described in this subsection. The minimum separating distances of this subsection do not apply to dewatering wells approved under s. NR 812.09(4) (a). Greater separation distances may be required for wells requiring plan approval under s. NR 812.09. Separation distance requirements to possible sources of contamination will not be waived because of property lines. Minimum separating distances are listed in Table A and are as follows:

(a) Eight feet between a well or reservoir and a:

°The minimum separating distance between a well and a collector sewer serving more than 4 living units or lar ger than 6 inch diameter is 50 feet regardless of whether the well or the sewer was installed first. However for such sewers less than 16-inch diameter, wells may be located or sewers installed such that a well is less than 50 feet, but at least 25 feet from gravity collector sewers smaller than 16 inches in diameter or from force main collector sewers 4 inches or smaller in diameter provided that within a 50-foot radius of the well the installed sewer pipe meets the allowable leakage requirements of A WW A C600 and the requirements for water- main equivalent type pipe as follows:

-For sewers >= 4" diameter, but < 16" diameter:

°PVC pipe 4" diameter, but <= 12" diameter shall meet AWW A C900 with elastomeric joints having a standard dimension ratio of 18 or less;

°PVC pipe>12" diameter, but < 16" diameter shall meet A WW A C905 with elastomeric joints having a standard dimension ratio of 18 or less.

°Ductile iron pipe shall meet AWWA C115 or AWWA C151 having a thickness class 50 or more.

-For sewers < 3" diameter, the pipe shall be any rigid pipe in the ch. SPS 384 "Table for Pipe and Tubing for Water Services and Private Water Mains," including approved ABS, brass, castiron, CPVC, copper, (not including type M copper), ductile iron, galvanized steel, polybutylene (PB), polyethylene (PE), PVC, or stainless steel pipe.

*"None" Although there were no minimum separation distances required by the code between these possible sources of contamination and a well or reservoir prior to 1975, and in some cases, prior to 1981, it is strongly recommended that the present standard minimum separation distance requirements be met whenever possible.

**Distances were developed under the Public Health Service Grade A Milk Ordinance and have been used by the department of agriculture, trade and consumer protection field inspectors.

***Variances from these separating distances may be granted for earthen manure storage and temporary manure stacks meeting specifications of Soil Conservation Service Standards No. 425 and 312, respectively.

#Variances from this minimum separating distance may be granted for treatment ponds or for storage or treatment lagoons constructed and maintained to the requirements of an approval granted under ch. NR 213.

##After Feb. 1, 1991 and prior to October 1, 1994 the minimum separating distance between a well or reservoir and a lift station is based on the presence of a sewer force main at the lift station

@ There are several code revisions prior to 1975. The dates of these revisions and the minimum separating distances were as follows:

Note: Single dash indicates source area is not in the land use; double dash indicates insufficient data; and triple dash indicates values are shared with those above for the same source area. The relatively large concentrations of zinc in roof runoff indicate that galvanized roofing materials were a source of the zinc. One-third of the residential roofs had galvanized downspouts. Roofing materials also might be a source of copper and lead in the runoff from residential roofs. Concentrations of dissolved copper and total recoverable copper and lead were slightly larger in the residential roof runoff than in runoff from driveways and lawns.

Note: The department has accepted that a "visible sheen" is defined as 15 mg/L grease and oil.

A-382.36 (3)-1. BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMPs). A description of the proposed best management practices to be used for stormwater management in the protection of water quality include, but are not limited to, the following:

a. Detention, retention and sedimentation facilities, including plans for discharges from the facilities, maintenance plans and predictions of water quality.

b. Areas of the site to be used or reserved for infiltration including a prediction of the impact on groundwater quality.

c. Any other relevant volume controls or measures.

d. Any other relevant source control practices not described.

e. Any treatment device, including plans for discharges from the facilities, maintenance plans and predictions of water quality.

Note: Section NR 151.002(4) reads: "'Best management practices' or 'BMPs' means structural or non-structural measures, practices, techniques or devices employed to avoid or minimize soil, sediment or pollutants carried in runoff to waters of the state."

A-382.36 (4)-1. RATIONAL METHOD. The equation procedure for using the rational method formula is as follows:

Q = Aci (in cubic feet per second)

Where: Q = Runoff (in cubic feet per second)

A = Drainage area (in acres)

c = Coefficient of runoff (a dimensionless number)

i = Intensity of rainfall (in inches per hour)

A-382.40 (7) (a) METHODOLOGY.

Where equipment such as an instantaneous or tankless water heater, water treatment device, water meter, and backflow preventer is provided in the design, the friction loss in such equipment, corresponding to the GPM demand, should be determined from the manufacturer or other reliable source.

Where a direct fired pressurized tank type water heater is provided in the design, the friction loss for such equipment can be assumed as part of the pressure losses due to flow through piping, fittings, valves and other plumbing appurtenances when the developed length of piping is multiplied by 1.5.

The pressure losses due to flow friction through displacement type cold-water meters may be calculated from Graph A-382.40 (7)-1.

A-382.41 (5) (a) AIR-GAP. An air-gap for cross connection control for water supply systems conforming to ASME 112.1.2.

Section SPS 381.01(7) reads: "'Air-gap, water supply system,' means the unobstructed vertical distance through the free atmosphere between the lowest opening from any pipe or faucet supplying water to a tank or plumbing fixture and the flood level rim or spill level of the receptacle."

A pipe/spout that terminates with its outlet above the flood level rim of a receptacle/fixture:

1. Shall terminate a minimum of one inch above the flood level rim of the receptacle/fixture, or

2. Shall terminate a minimum distance of two times the diameter of the effective opening from the end of the pipe/spout to the flood level rim of the receptacle/fixture.

Note: In any case, regardless if the end of the pipe/spout is cut square or at an angle, the air-gap is the distance between the lowest end of the pipe/spout and the flood level rim of the receptacle/fixture.

The following water supply air-gap, although the least desirable, is acceptable to the ASME 112.1.2 standard. A pipe/spout that terminates with its outlet completely below the flood level rim of a receptacle/fixture:

1. Must have an opening in the receptacle/fixture that discharges to the atmosphere through an air-gap.

2. This air-gap must be located as close as possible to the receptacle/fixture.

3. The rate of discharge through this opening as compared to the rate of water entering the receptacle/fixture establishes a "spill level" that is the level at which water entering the receptacle/fixture seeks a balance and does not raise any higher. (A level is established where the flow of water entering equals the flow of water exiting.)

4. The distance then, between this established "spill level" and the end of the lowest water supply pipe/spout, is the air-gap.

5. The minimum air-gap ("Y") is the distance between the supply pipe/spout and the "spill level" established in the receptacle/fixture.

6. The "spill level" shall be a distance no greater that one half of the distance measured as "Y," (1/2 "Y") above the discharge opening in the receptacle/fixture. Therefore, the air-gap between the supply pipe/spout and the highest portion of the opening that discharges to the atmosphere shall be a distance no greater than one and one half "Y" (1 1/2 "Y").

Note: In any case, regardless if the end of the pipe/spout is cut square or at an angle, the air-gap is the distance between the lowest end of the pipe/spout and the "spill level" of the receptacle/fixture.

The measurement for this air-gap, however, could be as much as 3 times the diameter of the pipe/spout depending upon the number of near walls. The distance of a near wall is a relationship to the diameter of the pipe/spout and the measurement from the wall to the closest side of the pipe/spout:

1. If there is one near wall, and the distance between that near wall and the closest edge of the supply pipe/spout is greater than 3 times the diameter of the supply pipe/spout, then the minimum air-gap is 2 times the diameter of the supply pipe/spout.

2. If there is one near wall, and the distance to the closest edge of the supply pipe/spout is less than 3 times the diameter of the pipe/spout, then the minimum air-gap is 3 times the diameter of the supply pipe/spout.

3. If there are 2 near walls, and the distance between the near wall(s) and closest edge of the supply pipe/spout is greater than 4 times the diameter of the supply pipe/spout, then the minimum air-gap is 2 times the diameter of the supply pipe/spout.

4. If there are 2 near walls, and the distance to the closest edge of the supply pipe/spout is less than 4 times the diameter of the supply pipe/spout, then the minimum air-gap is 3 times the diameter of the supply pipe/spout.

It has been determined that 2 or more near walls generally have little effect on the need to increase the air-gap to more than 3 times the diameter of the supply pipe/spout.

Note: See the following sketches as examples of an air-gap with pipe/spouts terminating above the flood level rim of the receptacle/fixture, of an air-gap with pipe/spouts terminating below the flood level rim of the receptacle/fixture and of an air-gap with pipe/spouts when terminating by one near wall.
