operated at all times". Please remove the vegetative growth that may be blocking the spray

Deficiencv # 3 Condition 12.d., which states, "The system shall be inspected monthly to make
certain of the proper operation of the spray heads, that the vegetative growth allows a proper
spray pattern, that the soil is assimilating the disposed treated wastewater with no surface runoff,
and no objectionable odors are being generated".

In addition to the above, during the August 20, 2019 inspection staff noticed there is a crack in

heavy rains it may allow rainwater to enter the system. Please plan on repairing or replacing
