1. Pump all toilets to standard

2. Pressure wash interior walls of pit, vault, or septic

3. Add water to pits, vaults, and septic tanks per specifications

4. Clean up and disinfect all contaminated areas resulting from pumping process.

C.3-1 Standards:

As a minimum, each task order issued for the pumping of toilets on the Mammoth and Mono Lake Ranger Districts will guarantee the following: Two Vaults

PUMPING WHEN AN OUTSIDE MANHOLE IS AVAILABLE:

Vaults are to be emptied of sewage to a point of 2-3 inches from the bottom.

Compacting of waste material in the bottom of the vault by tamping will not be allowed. Any debris in the vault will be removed.

As long as the outside pump out access is in excess of 20 inches in diameter (or 20 inches square) the contractor shall not be allowed to remove the contents through a toilet riser.

Using a pressure washer system, wash down the interior walls of the vault before the clinging debris has a chance to dry. If at this time there is a heavy concentration of solids on the bottom of the vault, use the pressure washer system to break up and dilute the solids and then pump this diluted waste down again to the 2-3 inch level. Compacting of waste in the bottom of the vault to obtain the 2-3 inch level will not be allowed.

The flat bottom vault shall be recharged with enough water to bring the depth of water up to 10 inches. For sloped vaults, pump the waste down (at the deep end) to where the hose begins to suck air. Remove any remaining debris and then go inside the building with the pressure system and wash the remaining waste down the sloped bottom. Pump out the remaining waste until the suction hose begins to suck too much air to make pumping practical. Recharge the vault with clean fresh water so there is 10 inches of water covering the bottom under the toilet riser.

Clean up and disinfect all contaminated areas resulting from the pumping process. Either sweep or wash all waste that is deposited on the concrete surrounding the manhole cover back into the vault if possible. Avoid getting waste on the adjacent gravel or dirt.

PUMPING THROUGH THE TIOLET RISER: MANHOLE IS NOT AVAILABLE

Remove Debris and pump per above specifications. Extra care shall be taken to prevent waste spillage onto the interior wall and floor surfaces. The toilet paper dispenser and toilet riser shall be protected from damage and contamination.

During the final cleanup, the interior wall and floor surfaces contaminated by waste shall be thoroughly disinfected. Thoroughly disinfect both inside and outside of the toilet riser. The riser, door handles, and knobs shall be dry before the contractor leaves.

Each unit shall be available for immediate use after the pumping and final cleanup. The contractor shall not leave any toilet location until the final cleanup is complete.

OFFSITE DISPOSAL OF SEWAGE AND DEBRIS

The contractor shall be responsible for making disposal arrangements, including disposal of all effluent, debris, and trash and shall be responsible for payment of all fees.

Disposal shall conform to all Federal, State, and local laws and ordinances. The Contracting Office (CO) shall approve all disposal sites before dumping begins.

C.4 Public Safety

Contractor shall follow all posted speed limits within campground boundaries and on Inyo National Forest Roads.

Contractor shall ensure facilities are vacated prior to pumping.
