SEPTIC REVIEW <br /> 10163 MILL CREEK ROAD SE. AUMSVILLE, OR 97325 <br /> <br />I stopped by this property November 15th and November <br />lSth to review the soil test pit which is dug within the <br />area of the proposed replacement septic system. Unfortu- <br />nately, the water table was so near the ground surface <br />(at 16 & 13 inches of the surface) during the visits that <br />I could not examine the soil profile at the depth neces- <br />sary to consider any septic system other than a substan- <br />dard alternative sand filter/capping fill system. <br /> <br />If I understand correctly, the current septic system <br />drainfield is partially on the adjacent property which <br />must be re-located wholly within the boundaries of your <br />own property. <br /> <br />It appears that there4are two problems with the proposal: <br />First; the substandard soil conditions. And, second; too <br />little space to construct the appropriate replacement <br />system. The enclosed setback list outlines minimum set- <br />back and separation distances for components of septic <br />systems. Note, especially the 100 feet from all wells. <br /> <br />A sand filter/capping fill septic system can be quite <br />complicated and expensive. Also, it probably can only be <br />successfully constructed during the dry soil summer <br />season. We have hand-out information of the different <br />septic systems which may be of benefit to you. I suggest <br />that you stop by our office Monday through Friday, during <br />the morning hours to further discuss your proposal. <br /> <br />Call, if you have any questions. <br />office betweeo% 8 and 10 AM. <br /> <br />LEE A.
