Soils and Site Evaluations for Septic Disposal Systems and Stormwater BMPs
October 3, 4 and 5, 2011
$695 before 9/19/11; $725 after; $645 multiple Course Code: ES0301CA12
Thousands of septic systems and stormwater basins malfunction for the same reason: failure to understand how water moves (or doesnt move!) through soil. You cannot hope to design and build these structures without a down-and-dirty understanding of these soils. Thats what this hands-on course is all about. Every day, you will spend equal time moving between lectures in the classroom and soil pits in the field, evaluating soils using your eyes, hands, and nose. You will observe, record and evaluate the site-specific soil characteristics required to write and support a complete soil log, as well as evaluate the soil and landscape data to determine design input. Most importantly, you will develop the necessary tools to determine whether a site is right legally and practically -- for a septic system or stormwater runoff Best Management Practices (BMP) facility. Day one and day two will be held on campus in New Brunswick, with day three off-campus and in the field. No matter the location, be prepared to leave with mud on your boots! In just three days, you will learn: Soil fundamentals for successful septic system design and installation, stormwater BMP design, and other applications, ` such as wetland design and soil remediation; Necessary components for estimating seasonal high water table; Differences between infiltration and percolation and how to maintain infiltration; and, How to be more efficient (and effective!) in choosing where to test and site BMPs and septics.

Attention Professionals Health Officers/Registered Environmental Health Specialists The health and safety of the public depends on your site evaluations. Increase your efficiency in the field while earning continuing education credits towards your HO/REHS license. Engineers and Scientists In todays economy, every decision must be precise and cost effective. Using the Soil Survey (now online!) is only the first step in evaluation a site. Get fast in the field, too. With BMP requirements, knowing the soil limitations at rhe beginning can prevent costly design revisions down the road. This course has been submitted for New Jersey PE Continuing Professional Competency credits. Faculty Coordinator Marilyn Mroz, PE, President of Cushetunk Technical Services, Inc. and former NRCS staffer, has a unique gift for soils instruction while standing nose-deep in a soil pit. She will be assisted by a team of soil scientists from around the state. Instructional Team

Stormwater Management

Course Code: EW0302CA12

ArcGIS: Introduction

Managing stormwater runoff from land development is becoming more complex every day. In light of New Jerseys recently adopted statewide Stormwater Management Rules, engineers, reviewers, developers and others will need to acquire both greater knowledge and new skills. This three-day course is designed to address these needs by presenting the most pertinent and up-to-date information on the scientific and regulatory aspects of stormwater management in New Jersey. This course will cover the recently adopted NJDEP Stormwater Management Rules, including those dealing with groundwater recharge, TSS and nutrient removal, and stormwater quantity control. A presentation of the new NJDEP BMP Manual, Groundwater Recharge Spreadsheet (NJGRS) and other technical aspects of the new rules will also be included. The course will conclude with a workshop problem that applies the information and techniques presented to a sample development site in accordance with the new NJDEP Rules.
