8C (1)
a.)
The new WWTP structure and treatment system will not
negatively impact a neighboring building, public health or the environment.
8C (2)
a.)
There is a technical hardship in relocating the Post
Aeration Tank, UV structure, and Sand Filters to meet the required minimum
distance in that it would disrupt the optimum
treatment layout and not fit on the existing County owned property. It would also increase the cost of the project.
b.)
There are no other viable options to relocate the Post
Aeration, UV structure, and Sand Filters to meet the minimum required isolation
distance.
