-Increased uses also places
stress on parks septic systems
-West built in 1994
-East built in 1997
-Imbalance of use on two sides…heavier on east
-East leach field close to shoreline compared to west (tennis courts)
*Why does this matter? After wastewater goes through
septic tanks, travels through pipes in leach fields where undergoes more
treatment, if pipes close to lake, increases chance that wastewater will
enter groundwater and then enter into lake water
*Therefore both high usage
of east septic system and close proximity of leach field to lake are issues
need to be concerned about particularly if park traffic increases
