Infiltrative surface definition

Infiltrative surface means designated interface where effluent moves from distribution media or a distribution product into treatment media or original soil. In standard trench or bed systems this will be the interface of the distribution media or product and in-situ soil. Two separate infiltrative surfaces will exist in a mound system and an unlined sand filter, one at the interface of the distribution media and fill sand, the other at the interface of the fill sand and in-situ soil.

Infiltrative surface means the surface within a treatment component or soil dispersal component to which effluent is applied and through which effluent moves into original, undisturbed soil or other porous treatment media.

Infiltrative surface means the point or area of application of effluent to the soil or sand fill for purposes of treatment, dispersal, or both.

Examples of Infiltrative surface in a sentence
