What can be noted from Table 5 is there are no collection system costs as this component isalready in place at each residence. Plumbing costs such as verification and separation of sumppumps, drainage tile, foundation drains, etc. from the existing infrastructure are included in thecosts estimate. On average, this alternative has the least capital cost.4.2 CLUSTER SYSTEM (ALTERNATIVES 2 & 3)Table 6 provides the cost estimates for cluster systems with the installation of a STEP system ateach cluster residence, collection system, and a treatment/dispersal system. MSTS clustersystems may or may not require nitrogen removal as part of the treatment system dependingupon results of a hydrogeological study and nitrogen assessment. As it is not yet known (andcannot yet be determined) if nitrogen removal will be required for the proposed MSTS cluster,costs columns are included assuming both situations-without and with nitrogen removal costs.Table 6: 25-Year Capital Cost Estimates Cluster System AlternativesWastewater <strong>Treatment</strong> SystemComponent CostsAlternative 2LISTS Clusterwith NitrogenBMP + 8 ISTSCostsAlternative 3MSTS Clusterwithout NitrogenRemoval CostsAlternative 3MSTS Clusterwith NitrogenRemoval CostsCluster <strong>Treatment</strong>System Costs* $ 90,000 $ 197,000 $ 180,000ISTS at Non-clusterProperties Costs $ 117,900 $ - $ -Nitrogen Removal SystemCosts $ - $ - $ 242,100Land Acquisition Costs** $ - $ 25,000 $ 25,000Collection System Costs $ 149,000 $ 248,000 $ 248,000Contingency Costs (5%)*** $ 23,900 $ 44,500 $ 67,010Legal, Engineering, andAdministration Costs $ 39,500 $ 97,900 $ 147,500Total Cost Estimate $ 420,300 $ 612,400 $ 909,610Avg.
