Messrs. Tucker, Cilimberg, Benish REVIEWED BY:
BACKGROUND:
The applicant,W.J. Kirtley, Jr., requests Jurisdictional Area designation for water and sewer to provide sewer service to
property located on Tax Map 59, Parcel 23B(1)(See Attachment A). This would require access to the Crozet Interceptor
which crosses at the front of the applicant's property. The applicant's property consists of 3.25 acres and is located
outside of the designated Development Area on Route 250 West in the Ivy area. The applicant's property is located in
the Albemarle County Service Authority service area for water only and a portion of the property near Route 250 West
is designated for water and sewer. In 1984, the Board established a policy regarding properties in this area with pre-
existing zoning that sewer service should be provided only to portions of the properties which could be served by gravity
flow and which drained away from the South Fork Rivanna River watershed. This action added that portion of this parcel
that drained away from the South Rivanna River Watershed to the service area for sewer. There are four buildings
located on this property. A realty office is located near Route 250 West and is within the designated water and sewer
area. Three warehouses are located near the railroad tracks and are located in the water only designated area. The
applicant has stated that the drainfield serving the three warehouse in the rear of the property has failed to the extent that
the septic field needs to be pumped weekly. The applicant hired a soil scientist to explore the possibility of locating a new
drainfield to serve these building, but there may not be an adequate area on the parcel due to extreme rock formation
to provide an approved drainfield (See Attachment B). The Health Department has indicated that the system may be in
the early stages of failure, although at the time of the inspector's site visit the system was functioning satisfactorily. One
alternative location for a new drainfield would require the abandonment of an existing well. A second alternative site is
an "uphill" location which would require pumping and would also take up some of the reserve septic site for another
building on the property (See Attachment C).
DISCUSSION
The subject property for this request is not within a Development Area. The Comprehensive Plan provides the following
concerning water service in the Rural Area:
General Principle: Utilization of central water and/or sewer systems or the extension of public water or sewer into the
Rural Area is strongly discouraged except in cases where public health and safety are at issue.
Recommendation: Only allow changes in jurisdictional areas outside of designated Development Area boundaries in
cases where the property is:(1) adjacent to existing lines;and(2)public health or safety is endangered.
The Crozet Interceptor runs along the front of the property on Route 250, so the application meets the adjacent line
requirement. With the applicant's septic system backing up, the request meets the health and safety criteria. However,
the warehouse site drains toward the water supply watershed and, therefore, does not meet the Board's policy for
providing sewer service to this area.

August 6, 1997
Page 2
RECOMMENDATION:
This request is consistent with the strategies of the Comprehensive Plan for the provision of service outside designated
Development Areas if further information were to be provided to substantiate the failing condition of the of the existing
septic system. Regarding the policy for areas draining to water supply watershed, provision of sewer service may be
necessary in this particular case due to the apparent failing system and lack of an adequate replacement site. Sewer
service may need to be provided in order to allow continued use of the buildings.
Staff recommends that the Board proceed to public hearing to consider amending the jurisdictional area map to allow
for limited sewer service to the existing warehouse structures. The public hearing should be scheduled when the
applicant has provided further verification of system failure.

RE : W. J. Kirtley, Jr.
Dear Madam or Sir:
Enclosed is an application from W. J. Kirtley, Jr. , to amend
the service authority area to allow him to hook up to the public
sewer line at the front of this property on Route 250 West . There
is an office building in the front of the property which is within
the service area although it is not connected to the sewer. The
building on the rear of the property is not within the service area
because the sewage would have to be pumped to the sewer line .
The drainfield at the rear area has failed to the extent that
the septic tank needs to be pumped weekly. As you can see from
Steve Gooch' s report, there is not enough space in the rear of the
lot and because of the extreme rock formation there is probably not
enough space behind the office building in the front of the
property.
Enclosed are some pictures taken recently when the water line
was put in showing the rock content of the soil .
If you need any other information or have any questions,
please feel free to call me at the above number, or call Mr.
Kirtley at 295-5090 .
Very truly yours,
Ri hard E. Carter

Re: Soils Study
Proposed Drainfield Sites for Kirtley Distributing Building i
Kirtley Property- Route 250 West
Albemarle County
Dear Mr. Kirtley:
Trl.rphnne
As requested we have completed a soils study at the referenced site. The purpose of the
study was to determine the suitability of the soils for the disposal of sewage by means 804.977.149a
of a septic tank drainfield system. The investigation has consisted of drilling a series of
hand auger test holes to determine soil profiles at two(2) potential sites that you wantediez,,,;imo.
investigated. The first site is located directly behind the existing two-story brick office
building in the front portion of the property. The second site is located in the gravel 8 o q.9 7 7.6 7,$
parking lot in front of the existing warehouse in the rear portion of the property. A log
of each test hole is shown on the enclosed individual soil profile sheets along with a
sketch showing the approximate hole locations. The holes at the first site have been
flagged with red ribbon. The holes at the second site have not been flagged. Also
enclosed is a soil information summary sheet for each site containing information
pertinent to the design of the proposed drainfield.
Based on our investigation, we offer the following comments regarding the areas
investigated:
Site i#1. (Behind the existing two story office building): This area was
investigated with seven (7) soil profile holes. Two of the profile holes (4 and 7)
encountered bedrock at 44 and 42 inches, respectively. The depth to bedrock, coupled
with the fact that there is anywhere from 18 to 26 inches of existing fill in the area, will
limit tAe potential drainfield site to a small area in the vicinity of holes 1,2,3,5 and 6.
Provided that no bedrock is encountered at a depth above 54 inches this area will only
support six (6) 67 foot lines. Using an estimated percolation rate of 40 minutes/inch
and an installation depth of 54 inches below the existing ground surface, this site can
dispose of approximately 600 gallons of water per day. If this site is approved by the
Health Department, a pump system will be required.
Site #2 (In parking lot in front of the existing warehouse building): There is a
very small area in the vicinity of holes 1,2,5 and 6 that should support four (4) 50 foot
lines. Using an estimated percolation rate of 40 minutes/inch and an installation depth of
42 inches below the existing parking lot, this site can dispose of approximately 300
gallons of water per day. If this site is approved by the Health Department, the parking

lot will have to be paved and the existing well will have to be abandoned in accordance
with Health Department regulations.
We suggest that you discuss your situation with the Health Department to determine
how much drainfield will be required in.order to accommodate the change that you are
proposing.
The contents of this report reflect our opinion as to the suitability of the soils in the
areas investigated to support a septic tank/drainfield system under the current Health
Department regulations. Final approval and design of the drainfield rests with the
Charlottesville-Albemarle Health Department.
We hope this is the information you need. If you have any questions, please let us
know.

Dear Mr.Kirtley:
i hope this will help to summarize our meeting last month concerning a building on your property.
located behind the Kirtley Real Estate office on Rt.250 West.
You informed me that the building had about 20 emoloyces and that while there was no leakage of
sewage,the flow of water at the building is slow. This could be an early sign of failure_
In order to repair this septic system, it will he necessary to install between 1000- 1200 square feet
of drainlicld. There is only enough space around this building to install approx. half this amount of
drainficld. It also would involve abandoning un existing well, Another option would be to install
drainfield to an area uphill,behind the Kirtley office building. This would require pumping and would
take up some reserve area required for the Kirtley building.
Since a water line has already been dug to connect to public water, i would recommend that you
look into also connecting to public sewer,as this would offer a more permanent solution to the repair and
any Future problems that may occur.
I shall be happy to discuss this or any related matter as required-
Sincerely,
Zi"/".
