promote efficiency and the environment.
ON THE COVER: When Nathan Officer wanted to start a pumping business to work
cooperatively with an onsite company co-owned by his father, he was determined to
use technology to build efficiency. Officer is shown with his truck, a 2013 International

Is a New Septic Service Truck

in Your Plans for 2016?
Work truck buyers report steady fleet upgrades in a strengthening economy,

declining interest in alternative fuels as long as oil prices are depressed By Jim Kneiszel, Editor
here was a noted excitement over new trucks displayed at the Water
& Wastewater Equipment, Treatment & Transport Show earlier this
year. Plenty of serious buyers joined the tire-kickers inside the Indiana
Convention Center, as truck builders I talked to reported selling spec trucks
off the show floor.
My unscientific evidence of a strong market for wastewater industry
rolling equipment seems to be backed up by the findings of the 2016 Fleet
Purchasing Outlook released by the NTEA The Association For the Work
Truck Industry. The annual survey of truck fleet buyers gives a generally
positive forecast for truck purchasing this year. Thats good news following a
span of volatility in the market after the economic downturn starting in 2008
and a surge of replacements of aging vehicles in the past few years.
The roller-coaster economy over the past decade seemingly led to periods where a glut of trucks were available, followed by periods of short supplies of chassis and some reported longer wait times for work truck buildouts. At some points, pumpers I talked to seemed gun-shy about replacing
older rigs, and at other times impatient to update trucks that were showing
reliability issues. Fleet buyers and truck builders seem to be finding an equilibrium, with replacement trends becoming more predictable.
SENSE OF OPTIMISM
The relatively healthy business environment has prompted interest in
aggressive acquisition plans. With generally stable funding levels, fleets are
focused on replenishing dated vehicles and considering new truck productivity technologies, Steve Carey, NTEA executive director, said in the survey
introduction. This years study reveals a general sense of optimism among
responding vocational fleets, influenced by modest gains and overall stability across the industry.
But theres room for more robust work truck updating, the outlook indicates. Many fleet buyers continue to take a conservative approach, holding on to trucks longer than they would have anticipated previously, and the
collapse of oil prices seems to have muted interest in some alternative fuel
technologies.
Important findings for 2016, noted in the NTEA executive summary,
include:
40 percent of those surveyed report a rising average truck age
60 percent report their average truck age is 5 to 10 years
Nearly one-third intend to expand truck numbers
More than half continue to exceed their normal replacement cycle
95 percent report likely-to-sure funding for planned purchases
10
Pumper June 2016
Interest in alternative fuel technologies has declined

due to persistently low oil prices driving down the
cost of diesel and gasoline. The report indicates that
interest in alternative fuels will likely remain muted
until oil prices bounce back.
RESULTS MAY VARY
When considering statistics provided by a wide variety of fleet buyers, I
have to say that results and attitudes may vary among the subset of pumping
and portable sanitation companies. Pumpers have unique requirements for
their vehicles and typically have smaller fleets. Running a few trucks every
day, they have limited resources to replace the rigs, and they must remain
flexible and nimble with their purchases because they usually cant go too
long with an unreliable truck parked in the garage. When they need a truck,
they really need a truck, typically.
The NTEA survey respondents included a broad sampling of fleet purchasers across the U.S. and Canada; among them the largest number (38
percent) manage municipal or government fleets. About 40 percent of the
responses were from buyers within several smaller fleet categories, those
with less than 100 trucks, while only 9 percent of those surveyed have less
than 10 trucks. So its fair to state that less than half of the responses came
from buyers that would align closely with the pumping industry.
That said, the report says that smaller fleet buyers have a shorter truck
life cycle and will have slightly newer fleets in 2016 over 2015. For those with
less than 10 vehicles, 53 percent of the equipment is less than 5 years old, 16
percent is 5 to 10 years old, and 31 percent is 10 to 15 years old. For larger
fleets, generally more trucks fall into the 5- to 10-year age and fewer trucks
are less than 5 years old.
The overall trend is for strong work truck purchases in 2016, according
to the report. More than 60 percent of respondents indicated fleets will remain the same size as 2015. More than 30 percent expect fleet size will grow,
while only 5 percent say they will decrease in size, with that number declining dramatically over recent years.
Although fleet purchasing plans have become a bit more conservative
in 2016 as compared to the last two years, levels remain high, with 86 percent

of respondents seeking acquisitions, the report reads. In fact, 66 percent

hope to add at least as many trucks as last year. While 2016 data shows fleet
buyers are less inclined to acquire more trucks than last year (24 percent
compared to 38 percent for 2015), plans to purchase the same number largely offset the change, with an 11 percent gain, suggesting fleets are following
a more regular replacement cycle.
In short, heres the breakdown of expected purchases in 2016 over 2015:
24 percent will acquire more
42 percent will acquire the same number
20 percent will acquire less
14 percent have no new purchases planned
OIL PRICE FACTOR
Not unexpectedly, interest in alternative fuel technologies has declined
due to persistently low oil prices driving down the cost of diesel and gasoline. The report indicates that interest in alternative fuels will likely remain
muted until oil prices bounce back. Support for alternative fuels dropped
from 37 percent of buyers in 2014 to 18 percent this year. In 2016, 53 percent
of fleets plan to modify truck specs to improve fuel economy or reduce utilization, off 11 percent from last year.
Respondents arent showing much interest in auxiliary power units,
electrification of truck systems or improved vehicle aerodynamics. They are
showing modest interest in powertrain optimization, telematics and route
optimization, use of engine stop/start technology, and vehicle weight reduction. The most prevalent alternative fuels being used presently are biodiesel,
E85 and compressed natural gas. Biodiesel is being used by 18 percent of
fleets now, up from 15 percent in 2015. Gains also recorded for propane/au-
togas, full electric and hydraulic hybrid technologies, but trends are mostly
down from 2013, however.
Given the diverse range of available tax advantages, financing options
and potential cost savings, implementing alternative fuels can be a smart
decision in the long term, the report concludes on an optimistic note.
The report uncovered an interesting trend in vehicle maintenance. It
states that use of an in-house mechanic is on the decline, from 80 percent
of fleets in 2015 to 68 percent in 2016. The buyers reported moving toward
outsourcing maintenance to a fleet management company or other outside garage.
These are just a few of the trends outlined in the 24-page fleet outlook. The NTEA makes the complete report available to member companies or for a fee to nonmembers. To learn more, go to www.ntea.com or call
800/441-6832.
HOW ABOUT YOUR PLANS?
Im interested in learning if Pumper readers reflect the trends from
the NTEA survey. Will you be shopping for a new vacuum truck for septic
or portable sanitation service this year and selling off an older rig? Is your
fleet aging to the point that inconvenient breakdowns are hurting your ability to meet customer demands? Is an improved business climate prompting
you to upgrade a truck or put another one on the road? Let me know your
thoughts at editor@pumper.com.

Michigan
hen Terry and Nancy Fiedler, of Mason, Michigan, bought

their first septic company in 1990, they figured it would
blend well with their existing landscaping business and
provide stable income through difficult economic times. Shunk/
Fiedler, and later addition R & L Septic Service, has provided the
stability they expected albeit with a few challenges along the way,
including adapting to changes in Michigans septage disposal rules.
I wanted a companion business, something I could do in the
winter, Terry says. He hit on the idea of being a pumper when his
own septic system failed, and he called Jerry Shunk. The two talked
about the business and Shunks plan to retire. By 1990 Shunk was
ready, and the Fiedlers purchased his business, which included a
1970 GMC truck with a 1,500-gallon steel vacuum tank.
(continued)
At the time, septage could be applied year-round, and the

Fiedlers rented the same land Shunk had used for application.
As planned, Terry had one of his trusted employees take care of
pumping during the summer and Terry pumped in the winter.
Then, state regulations tightened.
They shut us down from Dec. 15 to March 15 for applying
on the field. So we have to store everything in the lagoon and
wait until springtime and then get it in, Nancy explains, noting that now its a frozen ground rule, which still means about
three months of shutdown.
So landscaping and pumping occur at the same time. But
the Fiedlers have made it work.

in the office.
There is a good, complete
division of labor, Terry says, and
the businesses are run separately.
LAGOON LOGISTICS
The ability to land-apply has
always been the economic dealmaker for the pumping business.
When the Fielders bought a second
company, R & L Septic, in 1995, they
had five 20,000-gallon tanks to store
septage before it was field-applied.
Instead of buying more Slurrystore tanks (CST Industries) for additional storage, the Fiedlers decided it was more economical to spend $80,000
for a 200,000-gallon lagoon, including a $10,000 liner. While it took several
years to get a return on their investment, the

us a little bit, Terry says. I have 10 acres and
6 acres that I flip every year that are certified for land application. Soil testing is required once a year to get a license.
The Fiedlers are also required to send notices to neighbors
every five years for license renewal.
Jason unloads septage into a concrete trash tank,
where a steel bar screen with 3/8-inch gaps captures the
flushable wipes and other large debris. The septage then
flows into the lagoon. When timing and field conditions are
right, the septage is pumped back in the truck and spread
on the field using a reverse funnel. Terry follows up within
six hours with the tractor and disc.

to grow. With just one
truck, its easy to keep a
handle on the business
and maintain a
good reputation.
EQUIPMENT INVESTMENTS
With two companies, the Fiedlers
inherited a good client base and incorporated both business names for continuity with customers. The trucks from
both businesses, however, were old.
While they ran two trucks for a time, they
typically have only had one.
Its very important with one truck
that the truck keeps running, Terry says,
Terry Fiedler noting he was reminded of that last summer when the transmission went out. He
lost two days of work and possibly customers hell never get back.
His strategy has been to upgrade regularly and sell trucks through
Pumper magazine classifieds. His current 2010 Freightliner built by Tank
Truck Service & Sales Inc. with a 2,500-gallon aluminum tank and Challenger pump will soon be replaced with a newer model. Important features
include automatic hydraulic valves and heated collars, which are necessary
for Michigan winters. It also has a large-screen Garmin GPS unit to help Jason efficiently plan routes.

Another factor when purchasing a truck is size. Terry sticks to trucks

with 2,500-gallon tanks.
I like that size, because the next size adds an extra axle, and everything
is more expensive from the truck to the license, Terry says. The biggest issue with the tank size is that most new onsite systems he encounters have
1,500-gallon tanks, so only one tank can
be pumped instead of two of the older

required.
To help customers schedule pumping, Nancy provides a maintenance
log. It reminds them that systems should be inspected and serviced every
three to five years, things to avoid putting in the system and room to make
notes such as tank location. Her hope is that it educates customers and
makes finding tanks easier in the future.
CREDIT CARD EDGE
Another thing that makes it easier for customers is that the Fiedlers offer a credit card option, online and on the phone. We started doing credit
cards about four years ago. We had a lot of requests, Nancy says. Its been

Managing a lagoon
Land application of septage saves on disposal fees and time waiting in line at a busy treatment plant. But it also takes planning, preparation and flexibility, says Terry Fiedler, owner of Shunk/Fielder and R
& L Septic Service.
He uses two approved fields, 6 and 10 acres, alternating between
them every other year. The land is in the middle of 110 acres he owns,
which is important to meet regulations for setbacks for wells, property lines and wetlands. A farmer rents all the acres to plant crops for
animal feed, except for the land Fiedler uses for applying septage that
year. The soil is tested annually. Finding someone to rent his land is
easier than finding land to rent, Fiedler says.
Just as in farming, he needs to prep the field. While he had a small
tractor for his landscaping business, it was not large enough, and he
purchased separate equipment for the pumping business a John
Deere 5000 Series 4WD tractor and a 9-foot disc. If there is time in
the fall, he likes to work the field after his renter has harvested the
soybean or corn crop. If not, Fiedler works the ground as early as he
can in the spring, and he discs often throughout the season.
I disc in between land applications to keep it in good condition all
the time, Fiedler says. I dont want any foliage in the field.
Its also important that the field is accessible for his two-wheeldrive truck.
Pumper trucks arent meant to go on a field, so I disc it to make
everything nice and smooth, Fiedler says.
The tool that really makes land application work is a duckbill nozzle he purchased at a Michigan Septic Tank Association conference.
It couples into the trucks 6-inch dump valve and does a good job of
evenly dispersing the septage the width of the truck.
Its the best $150 I ever spent, Fiedler says. It never plugs.
Still, the job can be wet and sloppy when he follows up with the
tractor and disc to incorporate it into the soil.
During the summer and fall he is at the mercy of the weather.
Heavy rain means the truck cant get in the field without leaving deep
ruts, so he has to wait a few days until the soil dries. The 200,000-gallon lagoon provides plenty of storage, but Fiedler likes to land-apply
between 20,000-30,000 gallons every week in order to keep up. Once
the ground freezes, he continues to pump and stores the septage in
his lagoon until it freezes.
a huge boon to us. Its made a tremendous difference in collections. We dont have to go back and
bug them or track down insufficient checks.
Its well worth the $100 per month for credit
card services, she says. Jason uses a phone app
when customers pay him on location.
The Fiedlers credit their technology-savvy
son, Casey, 25, for setting them up with a website
and using the right words to get a high number
of views, a process called SEO or search engine
optimization. He set up Nancys computer when
she moved her office from the shop to her home
in 2008.
I use Software Control, a basic accounting
program for billing and payroll, and if you do
inventory, you can take care of that. We started
out with that for landscaping, then we took this
(pumping) on and use it for that.
Because of their strong internet presence
through Google (at a cost of $300 to $400 per
month), the Fiedlers only take out small phone
book ads.

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE

At 60, Terry realizes he needs to plan for retirement. The Fiedlers children, son Casey and
daughter Sam, put in their share of time with the
businesses, but have gone on to other careers.
Though he has the most experience with
landscaping, he says its the business he will let
go in a couple of years, because it is more physically demanding.
We are going to keep the septic business
because it pretty much runs itself, Terry says.
One thing the economic downturn illustrated
was that people can live without landscaping,
Nancy says. Terrys three crews were reduced to
two men, to mostly maintenance and mowing.
But people have to have septic tanks pumped,
especially when there are problems, she says.
Keeping the pumping business going ensures work for Jason. Most of my guys have
worked for me for 15 years, Terry says. We try to
treat them right with good compensation.
With good help and an efficient system in
place, the Fiedlers plan to operate their pumping
business as long as they can.
We are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and will keep doing this as long as its a good
retirement income, Terry says. We dont need
to grow. We are a small mom and pop business,
and Nancy and Jason have a good rapport with
customers. With just one truck, its easy to keep
a handle on the business and maintain a good
reputation.

New Chemical Threats

Found in Onsite Effluent
Micropollutants with unknown long-term impact on human health are being

studied in New York, Massachusetts By David Steinkraus
esearch into groundwater contamination from onsite wastewater

systems has primarily focused on the bacteria and viruses that make
people sick. But there is another imminent problem wastewater professionals need to be aware of: micropollutants. These chemicals, present in
very low concentrations, are an emerging issue for wastewater plants, and
two recent studies suggest they may be the same for onsite systems.
In daily life, micropollutants are medicines, sunscreen, cleaning products and artificial sweeteners used in products such as toothpaste. Except
for a few cases, scientists generally do not know the effects
when people and animals are
exposed for a long time to very
small amounts of these substances.
Two recent studies found
micropollutants flowing from
onsite wastewater systems
and migrating to nearby priLaurel Schaider
vate wells. These were not ad- Patrick Phillips
vanced treatment systems, but
densely clustered conventional onsite systems, and the study results hold
lessons about how public health officials and onsite professionals should
think about this newly discovered problem.
SANDY SOILS, OLD SYSTEMS
Fire Island in many ways is a worst-case scenario, says Patrick Phillips,
a scientist with the U.S. Geological Survey in Troy, New York. His study, published last year in Science of the Total Environment, looked at onsite systems
on the island and at a health care facility for the elderly in New England.
Fire Island stretches along the southern shore of Long Island. Clustered
along its narrow length are small communities of mostly seasonal homes.
Treatment consists of cesspools, typically a hole lined with cement blocks,
Phillips says. This was the system of choice when the island developed after
World War II. Its a barrier island so theres lots of sand. There is little organic matter in the soil so transit times are very quick. And there are about
four dwellings per acre.
The 60-bed health care facility had a septic system more than 20 years
old consisting of a settling tank, four septic tanks and two drainfields of
about 5,400 square feet each and alternately dosed for two to three days at a
time. The aquifer is sandy.
A study of Cape Cod well contamination was led by Laurel Schaider, a
research scientist at the Silent Spring Institute in Newton, Massachusetts.
26
Pumper June 2016
Cape Cod homes are typically served by standard septic tanks discharging
to drainfields. The aquifer is sand and gravel.
Wells downstream of the treatment areas ranged from a depth of about
3 feet on Fire Island to about 130 feet on Cape Cod.
MEDICATIONS FOUND
At the elder care facility, tests of water wells detected several chemicals,
among them a sedative, a muscle relaxant, the antibiotic sulfamethoxazole,
the topical anesthetic lidocaine, an anti-seizure drug and an opioid pain
reliever. On Fire Island, tests found traces of the insect repellent DEET, a
fragrance called galaxolide and a food additive called triethyl citrate. Tests
of Cape Cod water looked for 117 chemicals, and 85 percent of the tested
wells contained detectable amounts of at least one. Among others found
were sulfamethoxazole, another drug called carbamazepine used to treat
seizures and nerve pain, several flame

concentrations well below the threshold. But the absence of a safety guideline
Laurel Schaider
does not mean chemicals are risk-free.
This is particularly true for chemicals
that can act like hormones.
This is a new area, Phillips says. There have been reports of subtle
effects on fish. Fish arent killed, but their mating behavior changes, and its
pretty well established that some chemicals will change the ratio of males
to females and their sexual characteristics. These results have been found
in fish exposed to discharge from wastewater treatment plants, he says. The
effects of septic systems have not been studied, although Cape Cod ponds
affected by septic systems show elevated levels of hormones.
For a lot of these chemicals, we dont have a basis for evaluating
the effects of chronic exposure: a long period of time at very low doses,
Schaider says. The effect of exposure to combinations of the chemicals is
also not known, she says. We tend to study one chemical at a time, but
a certain combination of chemicals may act to block the effects of one or
enhance its effects.
How well chemicals are broken down depends on the chemical and

the wastewater treatment system. Some arent degraded unless there is

very advanced treatment or a blast of UV light, Phillips says. Some chemical compounds readily bind to soil particles and break down in the biologically active zone of soil. Some chemicals dont break down at all, such
as acesulfame, an artificial sweetener widely used in everything from soft
drinks to toothpaste.
WHAT CAN THE ONSITE INDUSTRY DO?
A key point from Schaiders study and others is that the minimum required distance from wells to drainfields may not be enough to allow treatment for chemicals. One idea for new developments is to have a single well
serving all the homes and to locate that well upstream in the groundwater
flow, she says.
A wastewater professional who wants to test well water for the presence of chemicals migrating from an onsite system faces a difficult task.
Testing for the chemicals detected in the studies required specialized laboratory equipment. Schaider said her group spent $1,800 per water sample
to search for those 117 chemicals. An alternative is to use markers, easily
found substances that tend to appear with the substances youre looking
for. One is nitrate.
When contaminants turned up in wells, so did nitrate, she says. The
same was true for boron, which is used in home cleaning products. The
problem with nitrate is it can also come from fertilizer, which makes it a poor
indicator in areas dominated by agriculture. Another option is to test for the
artificial sweetener acesulfame, Schaider says. It doesnt break down in our
bodies or in the soil, and because it is used in consumer products, its presence signals the presence of other chemicals.

wner Brad Piesch started out his septic service business by

rejuvenating a white 1993 Kenworth T800 with a 3,800-gallon steel
tank and Masport pump built out by Engle Fabrication. The truck
is powered by a Cummins engine tied to a 10-speed Eaton transmission.
Piesch freshened the truck with new Alcoa aluminum wheels up front and
powder-coat white drive wheels, had the tank repainted by LaRue Brothers
and added graphics by Signs of Times. He added a drop axle and had FMI
Truck Sales & Service add a new 3-inch valve on the rear for backflushing,
in addition to another 3-inch inlet and a 5-inch dump valve. Also new are
LED running lights, heated mirrors and chrome accents. Valves have heated
collars. The truck also features two sight glasses, a stainless steel toolbox, top
and rear manways, Garmin GPS, power windows and AC. Piesch drives the
truck, used mainly for residential septic service.

The combined teams of Septic Pumping Service and

Sandie Officer, Michael Wilder, Keith Condon, Wayne Officer,
Amanda Auge, Nathan Officer and Kaisha Officer (holding
Landon Officer). In the background is the ABCO Industries
dewatering truck used by the pumping company.
His answer was a dewatering truck from ABCO Industries that separates
septage into solids and liquids and puts clear water back into the tank. After
a short time in the field, he says the mobile dewatering technology helps
him save on operating expenses and promote an environmental solution to
pumping that has become popular with customers.
FAMILY TIES
Officer grew up in the decentralized wastewater industry, often working
weekends and summers for his fathers company. Any time school was out,
I was not at the beach I was working with my dad, he says. I learned how
to run equipment and about trucks and plumbing.
Septic Pumping was established by Officer and his wife, Kaisha, in response to frequent requests from Septic Solutions customers. The company
had been referring customers to other local pumpers, so it made sense

quickly after California passed a law
that required the use of an advanced

LIGHTEN THE LOAD
The San Diego area presents challenges for pumping professionals, not
the least of which is a scarcity of disposal sites that drives up operating costs
and customer invoices. Thats where the ABCO Industries rig came in. The
38
Pumper June 2016
truck essentially vacuums septage from a septic tank,

then uses a polymer and filters to separate the water
from the solids. After completing that process, the
truck dumps the water back into the tank, thereby reducing disposable waste volume by up to 90 percent.
The significant reduction in disposable waste is
critical because the nearest treatment facility is 50 miles
away, says Officer. The substantial decrease in disposal
trips from one or two per day down to once or twice
a week coupled with a huge decrease in waste volume (the company pays 9 cents per gallon) helped Officer justify the cost of the truck, which costs more than
a conventional septic service truck. Moreover, fewer
disposal trips allows time to pump out more tanks per
week, which boosts profitability, he notes.
I had buying this truck in mind from the day we
started the business, he says. A regular truck can only manage about two
jobs before we need to discharge, so I figured if we were going to do it, we

No paper trail? No problem.

Its unlikely that Septic Pumping Service in Fallbrook, California, will buy
any filing cabinets in the years ahead. Why not? The company operates almost
completely paperless, a move that increases efficiency and profit margins and
enhances customer service and satisfaction, says Nathan Officer, who co-owns
the company with his wife, Kaisha.
We do everything paperless, from septic system inspection certifications
to billing to truck inspections, he explains. Its much faster and so much easier to keep track of records. And with unlimited storage capacity, we can keep
records on hand longer.
Officers brother, Kyle, who works in information technology, helped set up
the paperless system. To find out what systems work best, we also called a
lot of other pumping companies in Orange County and Los Angeles, he says.
Some people would give me good information.
Going paperless saves substantial amounts of time and money, Officer says,
eliminating hand-written invoices and receipts a practice that could easily
consume untold numbers of hours over the course of a year. We did a costbenefit analysis and found were easily saving about $10,000 a year in administrative costs by doing things paperlessly, he says. When we need to refer
back to something, bam! Its right there. (Information is stored wirelessly onto
an external hard drive.)
Going paperless also enables Officer to spend more time on customer service
explaining things to customers on job sites, for example and reducing expenses leaves more money available for other things, such as more advertising.
The company relies on smartphones to handle almost all administrative
tasks, although Officer still carries a printer and a laptop in the truck for oldschool customers who prefer paper documents, or for situations where failed
wireless connections render smartphones unusable for transactions. We also
have a card reader that allows customers to pay their bill by credit card via a
smartphone, he adds. Its an added-value convenience. People expect to be
able to pay for things with a credit card.
The company uses credit card software made by PayPal and Square and
a wireless hotspot device from Verizon. The company pays a per-swipe fee
of 2.5 percent of the total transaction. It adds up, he notes, but the convenience outweighs the cost. Plus, I think wed lose some customers if we didnt
have it. PayPal and Square integrate seamlessly with the companys QuickBooks accounting software, which reduces by about one-third the time spent
on bookkeeping because theres little need for hand-keying financial data. For
example, the per-swipe credit card fees get automatically deducted from our
bank account, he says. We dont do anything manually its all automatic,
except when people pay by cash or check.

capability to do more jobs in the same period of
time outweighs my concerns. In the long run, its a truck payment and eventually it will go away.
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
Using the dewatering truck requires a little more time at each job site
because the water/solids separation process takes about 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the sludge. Then it takes an additional 15 to 25
minutes to filter the water and pump it back in the tank. The truck filters
and discharges the cleaned water back into the tank simultaneously, he
says. The filtered water contains solids of only .02 parts per million. And its
good for the tank because it restarts the bacteria.
40
Pumper June 2016
The sludge that Officer takes to a treatment center is typically about 85

percent solids. He says his company pays a few cents more per gallon for
disposal because the sludge is thicker than typical septage; that higher rate
applies even when he takes in septage that hasnt been dewatered.
Built on a 2013 International 7500 WorkStar chassis, the truck features
an 1,800-gallon waste tank made of polyvinyl-coated steel; a 600-gallon water
tank; dewatering capability of 200 gpm; an 850 cfm Wallenstein pump; 240
feet of hose; and an articulating hose reel that mechanically retracts the hose.
If conditions warrant it such as tanks that havent been cleaned for
so long that its almost impossible to separate the solids from water the
truck can also be used like a traditional vacuum truck. In fact, Officer gives
each customer the option of cleaning a tank either in traditional fashion or
by using the dewatering technology.
CUSTOMER EDUCATION
We explain the technology after we get on a job site, not over the
phone, because it can be confusing, he says. Most of our customers love it
because its saving a precious resource, plus it allows us to charge less than
competitors. But we want to be up-front about the technology were using.
The last thing we need is a customer coming out to ask us what were doing,
then having them say, No, I dont want it done

truck is larger than a conventional septic service truck, so sometimes its too big for the job
site; in those instances, the company refers the customer to another pumper.
We try to overcome that issue by carrying more hose than a typical
truck, Officer explains. Weve found we have to ask customers a lot of questions up-front. We also have to explain the technology, so we need someone
in the truck that can articulate it in a way that customers can understand.

ALL-IN ON PUMPING
The transition from installing to pumping was relatively easy,
Officer says, and he notes that he
works closely with his fathers company, sharing equipment and services as necessary. It made sense
financially for our businesses, he
explains. We became more of a
one-stop shop, which in turn makes
us more attractive to customers.
And before, we were taking money
out of our own wallets. Revenue in Nathan Officer creased substantially since we started pumping.
In a few years, Septic Pumping has grown from about 30 pumping jobs
per month during the first six months to about 45 jobs per month. Were on
a steady and consistent rate of growth, Officer notes.
Looking ahead, Officer envisions more slow but steady growth that
enables the company to keep providing
superior customer service. He also plans

SPOTLIGHT
MyTana Midsize Camera

a Solution for Septic Line
Inspections
By Craig Mandli
ften, the business that succeeds is the one that can offer the most
to its customers. That means not only streamlining operations, but
also diversifying service offerings in essence, offering more with
less. That idea was on full display in the MyTana Mfg. Company booth,
as the company highlighted its MS11-NG midsize video inspection camera at the 2016 Water & Wastewater Equipment, Treatment & Transport
(WWETT) Show.
The MS11-NG system can be used to inspect 3- to 4-inch lines with up
to 150 feet of range. According to MyTana President Jock Donaldson, the
camera is not only a fit for sewer and drain cleaners, but its lightweight portability also gives plumbers and septic pumpers a viable option for inspecting septic drainlines.
Thats why I feel that this camera is such a great fit for this crowd, he
says. Its a product that fits both a private contractor or municipality equally
well, or allows a contractor to diversify services. It has the capability of allowing a drain cleaner to perform municipal sewer inspections, or a septic
pumper to also do plumbing jobs. Its one of our most versatile products.
The camera allows the user to record or upload an inspection using the
MyTana viewer app, available for iPhone, iPad and Android. Built-in Wi-Fi
allows multiple viewers, as inspection video can be viewed wirelessly at up
to 100 feet away. Otherwise the user can save the job video, upload it to YouTube and email either the video link or still photos to the customer for viewing within minutes.
Almost everyone has a phone or some other portable device that can
receive files, says Donaldson. With this system, the customer can review
the video or photos in the comfort of their own living room nearly as the
inspection is happening. Theres very little delay.

counter. The unit can be powered with either household electric current or an onboard battery with a two-hour life.
Media connects through RCA jacks on the front of the unit.
The self-leveling feature is very popular, especially for customers
watching the video, as it keeps the image consistently upright, says Donaldson.
MyTana is a longtime WWETT Show exhibitor, as Donaldson considers it a must-attend for companies looking to get their products in front of
the wastewater industry. The company launched the MS11-NG four years
ago, but just recently added the Wi-Fi capability a feature that he says is
already proving popular.
Certainly having the ability to wirelessly send the video to an unconnected device is a huge benefit, he says. We believe that weve taken a
product that was already very strong and desirable, and made it even better.
The feedback weve received has been overwhelmingly positive.
Donaldson says his company is at work on several innovations to present at the 2017 WWETT Show. As portable devices continue to offer more
functionality, he says his company needs to work hard to keep up.
The technology is changing so fast every day, Donaldson says. You
really have to keep on top of it or youll miss something. We intend on staying on the cutting edge. 800/328-8170; www.mytana.com.

EPA Targets Nitrogen Reduction in Five Eastern States

By Doug Day
he U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has warned five states that

they arent doing enough to reduce nitrogen in Long Island Sound.
EPA proposed new strategies to reduce nitrogen in a letter to officials
in New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont and New Hampshire.
Besides continuing to upgrade wastewater treatment plants, EPA said nitrogen targets for each state would help reduce the amount of nitrogen reaching the Sound from other sources such as storm drains, septic systems and
lawn fertilizers.
Colorado
Illegal dwellings are popping up all over Colorado as people look to
cash in on the states new legal marijuana industry. Its not known how many
people are living off the grid with no running water, sanitation or proper
heating systems. One fire chief in Park County said he counted 287 illegal

homes in a single 50-mile drive, including RVs, campers, tents and makeshift structures. The county has hired two additional code enforcement officers and are updating zoning codes to make sure local ordinances properly
regulate the dwellings.
Hawaii
With a new tax incentive program to encourage people to replace
cesspools with modern septic systems, several legislators have asked Gov.
David Ige not to approve strict rule changes to ban all new cesspools. Hawaii is the only state that still allows new cesspools, with about 3,000 approved every year. In a letter to Ige, lawmakers say a proposed rule that
would require all cesspools to be replaced would cost $1.5 billion on the
Big Island (Hawaii) alone, which has more than 50,000 cesspools. They say
a new septic system runs from $20,000 to $30,000 in Hawaii, while a cesspool costs $2,000 to $3,000.
The tax credit has been available since January, offering up to $10,000
to replace cesspools located within 200 feet of a shoreline, perennial stream,
wetland, or within a source water assessment program area over the next
five years, with an annual cap of $5 million in credits.
New York
The Chautauqua County Board of Health began inspecting all private
onsite wastewater systems within 250 feet of its five lakes in May. The inspections will focus on two lakes in 2016, with the project expected to take
a few years to complete as the county reduces phosphorus reaching into
the lakes and contributing to algae blooms. The county will be looking at
systems more than 30 years old and those installed before permits were
required.
Property owners will not be charged for the inspections but will have
to pay the cost of uncovering the system and the cost to have it pumped for
inspection. Local health officials will conduct a visual inspection and dye
testing to determine the capacity and structural integrity of systems. The
Environmental Health Department will work with owners of failed systems
to determine actions needed to repair or replace them in order to meet
sanitary codes.
Officials in Astoria, New York, say it will be 2019 before a popular parks
bathrooms can be reopened. Last spring, it was discovered that the bathrooms for Astoria Park pool and playground were draining directly into the
East River for decades because of an outdated septic system installed in the
1930s. Portable restrooms are being used in the interim as repairs go through
the communitys design and procurement process.

4 Steps to Building
an Abundance Mentality
Promoting teamwork and recognizing a job well done will not only motivate employees
but will help grow your business as well By Richard J. Bryan
ave you ever worked with people who had a scarcity mentality? In
other words, they believed that if someone else was successful, there
was less opportunity for them. Their whole belief system was one of
winning at all costs, at the expense of friends, colleagues, customers and
even family members. They had a win/lose outlook on business and life
in general.
Typically, this sort of approach is less successful in the long run because it
is not conducive to building long-term relationships. Other people are turned
off by this compulsive will to win, regardless of who loses in the process.
It is far more productive if, as a manager or small-business owner, you
can promote an abundance mentality in the workplace. This helps you and
others find creative solutions in problem-solving, and it is far more motivational for employees, ultimately leading to business growth. How do you do
this? Try adopting these four simple steps in your business:
Become a coach and mentor
Dont be so quick to criticize members of your staff if they get something wrong or fail at a particular task; instead view it as a coaching opportunity. If you can become more of a coach and mentor rather than a taskoriented leader, you create an opportunity to grow your people and let them
learn from their mistakes. This also makes the team of people working for
you more self-sufficient and stronger, enabling you to focus on other strategic priorities.
Seek creative solutions
Encourage your employees to come up with creative solutions to issues.
This will empower them to discover new and better ways of doing things that
can directly impact the bottom line.
For example, Peter, a longtime owner of a car dealership, was amazed
at how much money he saved when his employees offered to paint the white
lines that marked out the 500 car spaces on the site. Normally this simple
task would have cost thousands of dollars each year by employing outside
contractors to paint the lines every six months. However, with his own staff
doing the job, not only was it completed at half the cost, but they also did a
far better job because they took more pride in the task at hand.
Encourage risk-taking
Persuade your team to take calculated risks and learn from their mistakes. By doing this you send a signal that you want them to think bigger and
help to grow the business rather than just sticking with the status quo. This

collaboration, you will build an abundance mentality
that promotes teamwork and what is best for your
company and its customers.
can deliver results and create a culture in which looking for new and better
ways of doing things is not only encouraged but also rewarded.
Remember that the first attempt at doing this may not result in the best
solution, but this approach does encourage outside-the-box thinking rather
than worrying about being right and playing it safe. Allow time for both
you and the team to get accustomed to this approach.
Give praise and recognition
It is amazing how something as simple as giving regular, positive feedback can be so effective as a strategy for growing your business. What is even
more amazing is how few organizations do this well.
Bob, the general manager for a successful retail store, had more than 50
salespeople working for him. He maintained that his team was motivated by
winning the Salesperson of the Month award, not because of the financial
bonus they received but because of the peer recognition and praise from
their manager and colleagues. It is a huge motivator for our team, he said.
So ask yourself: What ways can you find to give genuine praise and recognition to your employees?
THE BOTTOM LINE
A CEO of a multibillion-dollar software company put it best when asked
about the many things his organization had achieved during the past 10
years. He was quick to praise his management team and said, We take it as
a given that you need to have the skills and the experience to come and work
as part of our team. Then we look to hire those who have a positive outlook
and an attitude of abundance. This is what helped us to grow revenues and
profits even during tough times.
If you can lead in a way that encourages collaboration, you will build
an abundance mentality that promotes teamwork and what is best for your
company and its customers. More creative ways of doing things are discovered and a win/win philosophy becomes the norm.

Poor Financial Planning Can

Tarnish Your Golden Years
Small-business owners and their employees can utilize easy online retirement calculators
and Social Security to prepare for life after work By Erik Gunn
ometime in the future, youre thinking, youll pass the business along
to the next generation and go fishing. Sounds wonderful! How will
you get there?
Planning for retirement can seem overwhelming, but it doesnt have to
be. Start early, take it in small bites and keep at it. Youll be pricing bass boats
before you know it.
COLLECT THE DATA

Start with information gathering. Pull all your (your means belonging
to you and your spouse) financial information together: life insurance policies, bank accounts, retirement savings plans, your most recent Social Security income statement, mortgage information, pensions, and the last couple
of years of tax returns personal and business.
Include any divorce decrees, marital settlement agreements or child
support agreements you or your spouse are a party to, as well as basic information about your children (dates of birth, college plans, any insurance
policies or savings accounts you have for them) and a short comment about
circumstances particular to your spouse or children (special needs children,
a spouse who is much older or younger than you are, children with a broad
age span from oldest to youngest).
Last but not least, you need a copy of your will and power of attorney,
the articles of incorporation or partnership agreement for your business,
and your financial statements for the last couple of years.
CONTEMPLATE YOUR FUTURE
Next, talk to your spouse about your mutual expectations. Buy an RV
and see the United States, or move next door to the grandkids? Work at
something different? Volunteer?
Dont take the answers for granted. Better to find out now that you have
different ideas about retirement than after youve sold the business to your
foreman and applied for Social Security benefits.
Other questions: How much longer do you want to work? Do you have
significant personal debt? Are you expecting to pay for your childrens college education? How healthy are you?
Of course these answers can change over time, but thinking about them
as early as possible will help you keep track of where you want to be, where
you are and how to adjust as your vision for the future changes.
MAKE SOME PROJECTIONS
Then look at projecting possible outcomes. Heres where the web can

Talk to your spouse about your mutual expectations.

Dont take the answers for granted. Better to find

and applied for Social Security benefits.
help. Choose a calculator, enter your specific financial information and

some personal data, and youll get a report.
As with any calculator, the old adage garbage in, garbage out applies.
If the calculator only asks a few questions, you get basic information with
limited applicability. Try several calculators and think carefully about the
information provided.
The Social Security Administrations website (www.ssa.gov) gives the
complete picture of the government retirement benefit, including helping
figure out how much youre projected to receive at full retirement age. (If you
were born between 1943 and 1954 its age 66; for those born between 1955
and 1960, the age rises by a few months each year until its 67 for those born
in 1960 and after.)
Create an account and you can get a personalized statement based on
your record of Social Security earnings that will tell you exactly what youre
projected to receive, or just take a quick look for a rough projection based on
your last couple of years of earnings.
Social Security sends you a paper statement every five years, but youll
get current data if you create an account, and you can check it any time.
HELP IS ON THE WAY
You can find lots of information to help as you sort out your plans for
retirement. Some are fairly simple, others more sophisticated. Each has advantages and drawbacks.
For basic projections:
No-load mutual fund company Vanguard, (www.vanguard.com) on its
personal investors page, offers a variety of planning calculators, including a
basic When can I retire? simulator and worksheets for retirement income
and expenses. Discount broker Schwab (www.schwab.com) offers a simple
calculator. AARPs (www.aarp.org) calculator winds up with a handy graph
with green for your money and red for any expected shortfall. It also allows
for changes in expected savings withdrawals and amounts of preretirement
savings.
More details, but still free:
Discount broker Fidelity (www.fidelity.com) allows for detailed expenses, various scenarios including retirement work, Social Security estimates/override, tax calculations, and you can also save your data. Analyze
Now (www.analyzenow.com) offers a pre- and post-retirement planner,
which has good explanations, lets you save data and allows you to consider
real estate purchases and various financial events.
A deeper dive at a cost:
J & L Financial Planner (www.jlplanner.com) is Windows-based and offers a 21-day free trial; cost ranges from $109 to $169 with more interesting
and complicated features in the more expensive versions. Flexible Retirement Planner (www.flexibleretirementplanner.com) works on Java, the web,
Windows, Mac and Linux. A personal edition is available for as small a donation as $20.
OnTrajectory (www.ontrajectory.com) is web-based and allows you to
track progress and view your history; pay $3 per month or $30 per year.
OTHER HELPFUL RESOURCES
Laurence Kotlikoffs book Get Whats Yours is a guide to maximizing
your Social Security benefits especially useful if you have complicated
personal circumstances such as a disabled family member.
Jane Bryant Quinns recent book, How to Make Your Money Last, is full
of practical, straightforward explanations of the financial world, both preand post-retirement, and of financial products from the basic to the arcane.
She also includes extensive information about Social Security claiming it
and maximizing it.
Also consider booking a session with a fee-only financial planner. These
are people who do not sell financial products of any kind and thus have no
built-in bias for a specific companys products.
Expect to pay around $350 an hour for their time, which might sound
steep, but consider: They have no hidden agenda. You give them information
regarding your resources and objectives, they give you recommendations.
The National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (www.napfa.
org) has an advisor search function and explains the qualifications necessary for a planner to make that list.

STATE OF THE STATES
A New Focus on Septic System

Inspection in Mississippi
The state will have fewer inspectors, but they will be well-versed in onsite issues and technology,
says a Department of Health official By Doug Day
ts a time of transition for the Mississippi onsite wastewater industry.

While the number of state health department inspectors is being reduced
greatly, their duties are now specific to wastewater services and they are
expected to benefit from better supervision and access to more training and
resources.
Jim Weston, the director of onsite wastewater for the Mississippi State
Department of Health, says budget cuts led to several recent changes, but he
is expecting an improvement that will help the onsite
installing and septic service industry.
What is the major change in the inspection

program?
Weston: We used to have 103 environmentalists
statewide who did all kinds of things: food programs,
wastewater, rabies inspections, all kinds of stuff. As
of March 1, weve gone to 33 locally based inspectors spread around the state with three supervisors
in each office. They will focus exclusively on onsite Jim Weston, director
wastewater and hopefully become subject matter of onsite wastewater
experts over time by being able to concentrate on for the Mississippi
State Department of
training on a single program. Were going to assign
Health
duties based on where they are located and reduce
the amount of travel. Were also going to leverage
technology using iPads to generate recommendations, issue violations and
provide services.
I think the most positive of this is that before, we had a supervisor in
each of the nine districts. But we didnt have anyone above that person who
had knowledge of the wastewater program. Now, the local environmentalists will be in a chain of command that goes all the way up to the Division of
Onsite Wastewater and theyll have more support because the supervisors
will be more technically savvy.
We did 7,100 site evaluations last year in which we made recommendations. But we did only about 1,600 final approvals, which are required by law.
Thats one of the problems we had with the old system. That doesnt mean
people are just doing whatever they want with those other systems or dont
take action on our recommendations.
Being such a rural state, oftentimes there are not mechanisms to ensure
final inspections take place. Of 83 counties, 27 have their own code that requires a final approval, so thats a separate mechanism from us that ensures
people in those counties get final approval. Fortunately, most of those are
the counties with larger populations. We hope to bring up those numbers.

So I think its going to be a positive change. Onsite wastewater is a very

technical field and having them specialize and having the opportunity to
train them and spend time making them the best inspectors they can be will
make a huge difference.
How many onsite professionals do you deal with across the state?
Weston: There are about 490 installers, 170 pumpers and 80 certified
manufacturers. We have a Wastewater Advisory Council with 21 members
including certified installers, business people, real estate agents, the chair
of Mississippi State University Engineering, and others. They give us advice
on regulatory changes and provide feedback from the industry. When we
change regulations, they generally set up a subcommittee and we meet with
them. We try to make adjustments as we can to meet the
needs of the onsite and public

own people annually; we have
courses in systems and soils for
the staff, and we spend time
with them in the field to make sure everyones on the same page.
With our new system, were looking at ways to reduce the number of
hours but increase the opportunities for installers and pumpers to get their
credits, and offering them online and having home-study courses. Were going to give them credit for taking community college courses, helping us with
training and serving on the advisory committee. There are ways to learn other
than sitting in a classroom so were thinking about options for continuing
education credits or professional development hours.
We hope we can encourage onsite professionals to help each other. One of
the things were thinking about is development of an apprenticeship program.
What types of systems are common in Mississippi?

Weston: We use (conventional) septic systems with drainfields when
we can. In the southern third of the state we have coastal plains soils that
are very sandy and we run into water table problems as we get close to the
ocean, of course. Across the state, we have a wide variety of soils ranging
from sandy loam to clays. So we offer advanced treatment systems that rely
on secondary disposal like overland or spray distribution, drip irrigation and
elevated sand mounds.
We make good recommendations and do good final inspections when
were involved. I think the changes will definitely make it to where were enforcing the laws and regulations as theyre written. And were going to start
holding people more accountable for their actions when it comes to installing
these systems to make sure installers are doing it correctly and that the property owners are doing what they have to do so their systems work properly.

SEPTIC SYSTEM ANSWER MAN
Jim Anderson, Ph.D., is an emeritus professor

Soil, Water and Climate and recipient of the
pumping industrys Ralph Macchio Lifetime
Achievement Award. Email Jim questions
about septic system maintenance and
operation at editor@pumper.com.
Get Ready to Address the Scarcity of H2O

With population growth in desert regions and aquifers being depleted nationwide,
will your future onsite systems incorporate a water reuse component? By Jim Anderson, Ph.D.
s Ive mentioned in past columns, I have spent a lot of time in the

desert Southwest. Some say this is just to escape the snow and cold of
Minnesota and Wisconsin, but I actually have family ties in Arizona
and did graduate work at the University of Arizona in Tucson.
I have developed an appreciation for the unique environments found
throughout the Southwest and the impact limited water resources has on its
residents. The small community where my mother lives gets its water supply from a private well more than 600 feet deep within an aquifer where the
water level continues to drop despite conservation efforts.
So what does that have to do with our industry?
This type of situation is not confined to the Southwest; water scarcity
receives a lot of attention because of the extended drought period currently
being experienced. Even Minnesota a water-rich state at the headwaters
of three major river systems has areas where aquifers are being depleted.
The growing concern over water means we are going to be challenged as an
industry about how we plan to incorporate reuse and aquifer recharge into
decentralized wastewater treatment systems.
REUSE IS GROWING
The concept of using treated wastewater for irrigation and aquifer recharge is not a new idea. In California, treated water has been used to irrigate open park areas since the early 1900s and used to irrigate golf courses
since the mid-1900s.
We also see reuse in terms of recycling water within buildings for use
in flushing toilets combined with waste separation to conserve water. As the
need for water conservation increases, you will see this in your communities if it is not already happening. Even in Minnesota, municipal buildings
around the Twin Cities have these features built into them.
To this point, most examples of reuse have involved municipal treatment plants or collections systems involving millions of gallons. This involves large expenditures of energy and the need for significant infrastructure (pipes, pumps, etc.), which makes it somewhat inefficient and does
nothing to provide advantages for the more than 60 million Americans
served by decentralized systems. These systems do not move large quantities of water and reuse systems could operate at a much lower cost.
There are many ways decentralized systems could realistically present
water reuse opportunities. Serving single residences, clusters or small communities, they are smaller in size, scope and operation costs. The collection, treatment and reuse occurs near the point of generation. Treated water
could be used to generate energy locally or for horticultural or agricultural
purposes as well as contributing water for aquifer recharge.

extended drought period currently being experienced.
The growing concern over water means we are going
to be challenged as an industry about how we plan to
incorporate reuse and aquifer recharge into decentralized
wastewater treatment systems.
CAN WE CHANGE?
So back to my moms community. It was designed in the early 1960s by
renowned architect Bennie Gonzales, a disciple of Frank Lloyd Wright. The
landscaping and housing units were to emulate a Mediterranean village with
a Southwest flair. It involved open turf grass spaces and a large variety of plantings from both Arizona as well as non-native species. To lose the turf grass
and plantings would destroy the appearance and appeal of the community.
Of course, there is resistance to move to desert landscaping to conserve water.
This is where our industry and reuse comes into the picture. Ongoing
research is looking at subsurface drip irrigation using treated effluent for
turf grass areas. In the grand scheme of things it does a couple of things. It
reuses the water on site, can be managed locally, uses the nutrients in the
wastewater to benefit the plants, and since it is applied, becomes part of the
treatment process to make sure water that moves downward to replenish the
aquifer does not carry unwanted contaminants.
What does this type of system look like and what is involved? Researchers at the University of New Mexico are evaluating a system that uses a
membrane bioreactor (MBR), a relatively new technology for our industry,
in combination with a sequencing batch reactor aerobic treatment system.
Some of the problems with simply using aerobic treatment units to provide
the additional treatment common for drip applications are the variable flow
quantities and quality encountered day to day in onsite systems.
CONSERVATION FOCUS
This type of system uses a combination of nitrification and denitrification processes so specific qualities of effluent can be produced over a few
days. This can occur under rapidly changing conditions due to different
household use patterns that create problems for some technologies. This
also means different water qualities can be obtained through management

that fits particular plant needs whether turf grass, trees or shrubs based
on the soil types at the site.
The final treatment and dispersal area is then a subsurface drip irrigation system like those we currently employ. Putting in a subsurface system
helps allay public concerns about wastewater at the surface, reduces losses
of water through evaporation and promotes movement of water through the
soil for aquifer recharge.
Whether this is a long-term solution or not for my example remains to
be seen. Perhaps additional conservation will be required, but the system
takes advantage of the decentralized wastewater treatment approach. A
question for our industry going forward: Are we prepared and knowledgeable enough about the installation, operation, maintenance and management of systems like this so we can be involved in the future? If not, now is
the time to obtain the education and the skills necessary to play a part in
innovative solutions to our wastewater and water use problems.

SepticSmart Week
Each year, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency holds SepticSmart
Week with outreach activities to encourage homeowners and communities
to care for and maintain their septic systems.
The fourth SepticSmart Week is Sept. 26-30. NAWT requests you join
in during SepticSmart Week to encourage and inform homeowners and
communities on proper septic system care and maintenance, assist local
agencies in promoting homeowner education and awareness, and educate
local decision-makers about the infrastructure options available to improve
and maintain septic systems.
Across the country, local environmental groups, health departments
and governments face the challenges posed by improperly maintained and
failing septic systems. The EPA and NAWT, with your help, seek to assist
these local agencies in promoting homeowner education and awareness.
Nearly one-quarter of all American households depend on septic
systems to treat their wastewater. Failure to maintain a septic system can
lead to backups and overflows. As we know, this can lead to costly repairs,
well contamination, polluted local waterways and risks to public health and
the environment.
The SepticSmart website (www.epa.gov/septicsmart) has a toolkit
with materials that can assist us in providing this information to
homeowners and communities. If you cant find what you are looking for

What is Bio-Tab?
Bio-Tab is a highly concentrated tablet of bacteria (both aerobic and
anaerobic) and enzymes that acts as a biological activator for septic tanks.
In short, Bio-Tab helps septic systems work like they were intended.
Unlike most competitors dusty powders or messy liquids, Bio-Tab is in a
tablet form. Easy to use and easy to store, Bio-Tab is highly concentrated
(one jar contains a years supply). It is a safe, non-toxic, non-corrosive and
non-poisonous product that will not harm plumbing or septic systems.

DEWATERING EQUIPMENT
ABCO INDUSTRIES
LIMITED DEWATERING
TRUCK
The Dewatering Truck from ABCO
Industries Limited is a self-contained solution for the dewatering
of private, municipal and industrial sludge. It conditions incoming
sludge with a polymer, and the onboard filter system separates the solids
and liquids. The solids are stored in a holding chamber on the truck, while
liquid filtrate and useful bacteria are returned for normal on-site treatment.
Solids on the truck can be disposed of at an approved composting or landapplied area, eliminating the need for further processing at a lagoon. Operating costs are reduced due to minimal transport of water, meaning fewer
trips to the off-load site, reducing fuel costs, mileage, truck wear and tear,
and disposal fees. It can be outfitted with a high-pressure jetting system for
clean-out applications, and can be used as a conventional vacuum truck if
required. 902/634-8821; www.abco.ca.

stainless steel and lined with PVC filter tiles. The unit can dewater 18,000 to
25,000 gallons per fill and works overnight to separate liquids from solids.
The drum provides consistent results with any material that will flock, including grease. Filling can be done multiple times prior to rotation, then the
unit rotates one turn every two hours. The unit is energy-efficient, as it only
requires 1/4 hp to operate. 317/539-7304; www.itrdewatering.com.
PARK PROCESS GEOCAT

The GeoCat dewatering container from Park
Process uses disposable filters to remove
solids from wastewater. The disposable filter
media is available in different weights and
equivalent mesh sizes to match the requirement of the application. When the container
is emptied, the filter is discarded, leaving the
inside of the container clean and ready for a
new filter to be installed. The support basket for
the filter media is removable for periodic cleaning of
the inside of the unit. Drain ports for filtered water are located on the back bottom of the container. They are available as roll-off containers, dump hoppers or front loaders. 713/937-7602; www.parkprocess.com.

BIO-PLIER LAND
APPLICATOR
The KSA-unit from Simon Moos

Maskinfabrik A/S combines a
sludge tanker and on-site dewatering unit. The sludge is taken up into the vacuum tank, and when the vacuum
tank has been filled, the sludge is then pumped into the dewatering chamber
via the machine room. During this process a polymer is added to cause flocculation. During and after the pumping process, dewatering takes place through
the filter screens. The flocculated dry material is held back by filter screens. The
dewatered sludge can be transported to a treatment plant, disposed of in landfills, composted or used on farmland. The reject water is returned to the tank
and only the dewatered sludge remains in the unit. www.simonmoos.com.
The Bio-Plier Land Applicator from

Linco-Precision is a custom-built
truck with a 350 hp 4x4, 380 hp 4x2
or 475 hp 6x6 chassis. They are available with automatic or manual transmissions, and specd for number of axles,
with recommended weights per build. Pressure or vacuum tanks are available
in aluminum, stainless steel or steel, and available from 800 to 6,000 gallons

Processes dewaters wastewater and
produces clarified effluent. The flatbed design has a small footprint, but
is highly scalable. It can operate as a
stand-alone unit or integrate into existing systems, with or without polymers. Rows of oval discs rotate between
stationary plates during the dewatering process. Low speed minimizes power
requirements. Precision machining ensures nonclogging. The system requires
little maintenance. It is constructed from durable 304 stainless steel. 800/7993740; www.tridentprocesses.com.
CASE STUDY
ROTARY PRESS EFFECTIVELY
REPLACES DRAINAGE BAG SYSTEM
Problem: Organic Systems & Solutions of Milford, Indiana, processes septage and previously used drainage bags to dewater the material. In addition to the continual need to
purchase the bags, each bag required one full week to properly dewater. Not only were
bags cumbersome to move and haul away, they
let a significant amount of particulates through
and were not a reliable technology.
Solution: The company installed a Fournier
Industries rotary press in 2007, equipped
with two dewatering channels to treat its current flows, and was built with the capability of
adding an additional channel in the future. The
press would allow the septage to be dewatered
continuously with little operator attention, and
would free up space that was being taken up by multiple drainage bags.
Result: The system operates at a current level of 50,000 gpd, processing septage coming
in on 12 trucks per day. The rotary press receives the sludge at 2 to 3 percent solids and
discharges the material as dry cake that is typically 35 to 40 percent solids a significant
improvement over the old technology. The capture rate is consistently 96 percent or better,
solving the particulate issue associated with the previous system. In addition to the clean
filtrate leaving the system, the press only uses a small amount of wash water at the end of
the shift. 418/423-6912; www.rotary-press.com.
SCREENCO
SYSTEMS PORTA
SPREADER
The Porta Spreader screening
system from ScreenCo Systems
doubles as a mobile screening

flexes up and down and moves in and out while traveling across the field. It
has a telescoping and adjustable tongue height, and its 2-inch ball receiver
makes it adaptable to virtually all vacuum trucks. It has hinged trash chutes,
a powder-coated steel frame and aluminum hopper assembly construction
with 2- to 12-inch fan spreaders on the bottom rear. Its 3.8-inch gapped steel
screens meet ecology 503s. It has a complete trailer light package and comes
with custom cleaning tools. It works with either 4- or 6-inch dump valves, with
a capacity of up to 500 gpm. 208/790-8770; www.screencosystems.com.
RECEIVING STATIONS
DRYCAKE DSS-R
The DRYCAKE DSS-R septage receiving system
receives and pretreats effluent from septic haulers to prevent solids from overcharging or overloading the downstream plant. The installation
can be as simple as the DSS-R 100 in-tank screw
screen, rock trap and a scale, or complete as a
hauler access station with flowmeter and actuated plug valve. The hauler access
station can be integrated with existing accounting and logging software. The
database can be managed remotely either by DRYCAKE or by the end user. The
logger has the capacity to accept additional input parameters, such as pH or total suspended solids or others, and as standard has the capacity to produce the
drive signal (typically a form C contact output) to open and close the septage
receiving system automated valve. The logger can trigger a sample of the hauler
load as it is transferred to the plant. 877/379-2253; www.drycake.com.

WASTEQUIP
DEWATERING
CONTAINER
Dewatering containers from
Wastequip separate liquids from
solids with the goal of reducing the
overall cost of waste disposal. They can be used at wastewater treatment facilities, manufacturing facilities, spill sites, construction sites, refineries and
mines, and can be custom-configured for specific applications. To ensure
no leaks, they undergo stringent hydro-testing and have a rear door with
neoprene rubber or T-gaskets. Bolt-in, easy-to-remove liners are available.
When removed, the container can be used for sludge containment. With a
1/4-inch floor, 7-gauge sides, continuous inside welds, solid steel nose cone
and outside rail understructure, the containers are available in 20- or 25-cubic-yard sizes, with round bottom or rectangular configurations. Custom
sizes are also available. 877/468-9278; www.wastequip.com.
STORAGE TANKS
Problem: The City of Jackson, Mississippi, had three equalization basins at the Savanna Street Wastewater Treatment Plant that received overflow sewage during heavy rain
events. Over the years, biosolids had built up to the point that there was a 70 percent reduction in the available storage volume.
The city needed to remove approximately
92,000 dry tons of solids from the basins, while keeping them available to
handle overflow during wet weather.
Solution: Denali Water employed hydraulic dredging together with TITANTubes from Flint Industries as the
method to remove, dewater and store the solids. Because of the limited space, the tubes
needed to be stacked four high, and the contractor was required to achieve at least 22
percent solids after 30 days of tube dewatering. The dredged slurry was injected with aged
and mixed polymer flocculent and then pumped to the high-flow geotextile tubes.
Result: The dewatering process exceeded expectations by dewatering the sludge faster
than anticipated. This allowed the contractor to keep pumping and safely stack the tubes,
and to use fewer tubes than originally expected. The UV stability of the TITANTubes also
allowed the city to put off hauling and disposal to a future budget cycle. 912/685-3375;

sources. An epoxy-coated finish adds corrosion resistance and durability to
the cast iron construction, while the cutting system provides tight cutting
clearances, according to Scott Stayton, director of portfolio management at
Franklin Electric.
Our design is very efficient, and our grinder mechanism is one of the keys
to its success, Stayton says. We have a patented floating (stationary) cutter;
this allows us to focus on the two pieces of the mechanism (stationary and
rotating) in the manufacturing process and maintain a very close tolerance for
a clean cut, in conjunction with efficiencies in the motor and pump head.
We also pump throughout the complete performance curve, he continues.
We find grinder pumps in applications where they dont belong, and it can be
detrimental to the pump. So we removed the issue altogether, and said, Lets
let it pump all the way through the curve, so that we could cover applications
where higher pressure is demanded and others cannot reach.
Units incorporate a nonclogging, corrosion-resistant brass impeller staged
for efficient pumping of sewage slurries with a shut-off head of 130 feet, which
Stayton says minimizes downtime and maintenance.
The key to grinding is you want very fine particles so that it travels through
the impeller assembly without clogging, Stayton says. If you have longer
pieces of material, it can cause roping. It will essentially tie itself together and
can clog up the unit, so thats one area we really wanted to focus on.
When youre not getting clogs, its a real advantage for contractors because theyre not getting a callback for something that should have been a
nonissue.
Pumps operate across voltages ranging from 208 to 230 volts. A singlephase, capacitor start/run motor with built-in overload protection prevents
over-current and over-temperature damage. 260/824-2900;
