In addition to the above requirement, the system must provide an unobstructed open bottom area equal to at least onehalf the total bottom area of a conventional gravel system. or provide delivery of effluent over the entire projected trench bottom. The system must have a projected product width that fills the trench width within two inches. The system also must have a reserve area at least equal to fifty percent of the size of the installed system.

(e)(5) Lateral trench runs must be as long as practical within the limits of the approved site so as to minimize the linear loading rate. Wastewater may be distributed to a lateral trench run either by gravity flow or by pump. (4) Before installation, the property owner must be provided with a copy of the warranty described in item (1)(a), notification of the type of passive soilbased onsite disposal system to be installed on the property, the current telephone number of the passive soilbased onsite disposal system manufacturer, and notice that the manufacturer has complied with the financial assurance requirements set forth in Section 44551340.” SECTION 4.
