Close Quarters Restaurant will produce an estimated average of 3,000 gallons per day of sanitary sewage (7,500 gallons/day @ 2.5 peak factor). A small flow sewage treatment plant is proposed to be constructed to treat the sewage flows. Flows from the restaurant will be intercepted at the existing grease trap and conveyed to the proposed treatment plant through a 4 inch PVC pipe. The proposed treatment plant will be located on an abandoned seepage bed. Treated effluent will be conveyed across Lake Harmony Road (State Route 1003) and discharged into a tributary of Tunkhannock Creek. A Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Highway Occupancy Permit will be obtained to cross and use the State highway right-of-way. Water supply is provided by an onsite well.
