Abstract
An economical pressure sewer system with no polluting effluent was designed, constructed, and monitored for effectiveness. The elimination of groundwater infiltration and restrictive elevation tolerances associated with a conventional gravity sewer system enabled this type of sewer system to be installed and to function economically. The treatment process, aerobic and anaerobic lagoon storage with subsequent irrigation of the effluent, yielded no more than normal volume of runoff. Operational problems with the pressure system resulted from inefficient home grinder-pump units. These problems were greatly reduced when commercially manufactured home units became available. The treatment process functioned as anticipated. Because of the new sewer system, summer homes become year around residences and new home construction exceeded expectations.
