Guidance Document For An Application For Rapid Infiltration Basins: Rapid Infiltration Basins (RIB)
allow land treatment and disposal of wastewater. Applied wastewater percolates through the soil and the
treated effluent drains via hydraulic pathways to groundwater or surface water. The fact sheet contains
information that must be present in an application for a RIB. The Bureau of Water Pollution Control reserves
the right to require further site characterization and additional design criteria (2 pages) |

necessary for developing a monitoring well for the Division of Environmental Protection or pursuant to an
Administrative Order require by NDEP. |
WTS - 5

This Fact Sheet outlines the policy for implementing NAC 445.181 |
WTS - 22 Design Criteria for Individual Sewage Disposal Systems (ISDS) related to Subdivisions: The fact sheet outlines minimum design criteria for individual sewage disposal systems. (Note: This fact sheet is not for large-capacity septic systems or high-density clusters of small septic tanks. Please see WTS-23 for these systems.) This criteria is not meant to supersede or circumvent any existing state policy, statute or regulation and the Bureau of Water Pollution Control reserves the right to require further site characterization and additional design criteria |
WTS - 23 Design Criteria for Large Capacity Septic Systems: The fact sheet outlines minimum design criteria for individual sewage disposal systems that are equal to or greater than 5,000 gallon capacity. Please note that a large capacity septic system can be made up of one large tank or a group of smaller tanks on one property that exceed the 5,000 gallons design capacity. This criteria is not meant to supersede or circumvent any existing state policy, statute or regulation and the Bureau of Water Pollution Control reserves the right to require further site characterization and additional design criteria.
