    Hi Andrew,

    Specifically it’s a Advantex Treatment System with High Head Pump Chamber. This is a walled system. This system was chosen by the Engineer at this point we are just trying to deal with it! The sand filter is 32′ x 12′ exposed about 2′ above grade and the pump chamber is 11′ x 20′ it is also exposed about 2′ above grade. At this time we are trying to hide the pump under the covered porch providing access to chamber, etc.  Our main issue is with filter itself.  You can’t plant in it or anything large around it. Looking for creative solutions like sculpture garden or potted plants. Another option could be an alternative system type such as a geomat 3900 system, but again the proposed system is already permitted by the engineer. 

    I’ll give you a little more background info. The system is proposed for a existing residential property located within 50′ of the wetland buffer (note: existing house is within buffer zone including old septic system, it’s an old house). 

     

    Thanks again, Chris

    Tath,

    Thanks for the reply. I have taken Section E twice. My first time was was June 2006. I actually didn’t think this exam was too bad. I was not prepared very well for it. I took the test again in Dec 2008 and it was a much more difficult test I will definetly be taking this again!

    The PPI books are not up-to-date for this latest version of the exam. I’m hoping this class will give me enough skills to get the section done. It’s the only section left for me!

    What would you estimate the total cost at? Tution is 1,700 + ________

    Thanks, Chris

    Brittany,

    I live in Rhode Island and I was laid off almost 2 months ago also. I’m hoping for better times also. I was planning to study for the LEED exam over the winter between job searches. Did you purchase study materials from PPI? Do you have any recommendations? Good Luck on your exam!
