IECA-Paper

International Erosion Control Association paper discussing a paradigm shift in stormwater management.

EPIC Road Filter Dynamics

Discussion of aggregate filters applied to roads, parking lots, alleys, and hardscapes. The EPIC system acts as a passive oil and grease separator, along with bio-treatment of various other contaminants, through the natural processes of biology and nature.

SR 28 Road Filter Performance

Part 2 of the SR 28 articles shows road filter performance results in Lake Tahoe.

EPIC Septic System

Evaluate the inventor’s details, background, and philosophy that created the Environmental Passive Integrated Conveyance apparatus and method. Patented Proprietary Information for Regulators and Installers of Individual Home Sewage Systems.

Synthetic Turf Cooling EPIC Base

Heat trial case study performed in Phoenix, AZ, testing EPIC system sand base as a cooling mechanism through capillary physics to extend playable time on synthetic turf surfaces. Results that are over 50 degrees (F) cooler than conventional methods.

NMSU 2004 report

A technical report from New Mexico State University comparing USGA golf greens. The study included sprinklers, subsurface drip, and subsurface ECS (EPIC System) sand hydroponic technologies. ECS golf greens in the study used 70% LESS WATER than sprinklers/drip and yielded BETTER TURF QUALITY!

Evapotranspiration

A white paper discussing water use and transpiration. In 2001, a study was conducted to measure the water use of 4 acres of turf in EPIC fields in the high desert of Reno, NV. The supplemental water was metered and evapo-transpiration (ET) rates in the EPIC system are amortized over the course of a year to average 0.15 gallons per square foot per day.
