Vertical separation definition

Vertical separation means the depth of unsaturated, original, undisturbed soil of soil types 1-6 between the bottom infiltrative surface of a soil dispersal component and the highest seasonal water table, a restrictive layer, or soil type 7 as illustrated below by the profile drawing of subsurface soil absorption systems:
Vertical separation means the depth beneath the dispersal field infiltrative surface to a LC.
Vertical separation means the depth of unsaturated, original, undisturbed soil between the infiltrative surface of a drainfield component and the highest seasonal water table, a restrictive layer, or soil types 6 or 7 as illustrated by the profile drawings of drainfields in Figure 1 below.

Examples of Vertical separation in a sentence

  • Supplemental treatment systems shall be sited and designed so as to have a minimum vertical separation of twenty-four (24) inches to groundwater and eighteen (18) inches to restrictive or limiting layers and identified in the definition of Vertical Separation in this Chapter.

  • Operational policies should be developed or reviewed to ensure there are appropriate opportunities for pilots to exercise manual flying skills, such as in non-Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum airspace and during low workload conditions.
