Dear Ted,
The purpose of this letter follows to clarify the number of Quick4 Infiltrators needed to address your email
to Brandyn Bair of our office on March 13, 2024. As a matter of reference, Terry Bendetti, PE, of SGM
provided the design of this system for Mr. Jablonsky. Mr. Bendetti has since retired from SGM and is not
able to provide consulting services in support of this design. I will provide the follow up consulting and
answer questions and concerns regarding the same.
In his design calculations, Mr. Bendetti identified a requirement of 131 Quick4 Infiltrators to be arranged in
a series of five (5) twenty-two (22) unit trenches along with one (1) twenty-one (21) unit trench. The
necessary square footage of the 131 units is just shy of the total requirement by 3 sf. By adding another
unit to the twenty-one (21) unit trench, we can easily provide the necessary square footage and equalize
the lengths of all the trenches.
Note that we have spoken with Mr. Jablonsky regarding this issue and are amending the design to
implement such. At the time of as-builts, the revision can be reflected for County records.
Upon your receipt and review, if you have questions, please don’t hesitate to call.
Respectfully
SGM
