Dear Mr. Bagwell:
Please find enclosed the Compliance Evaluation Inspection for the site visit conducted on August 11,
2015 by Mr. Ori Tuvia and myself. Your cooperation during the site visit was much appreciated.
An area of concern is that annual effluent testing is not being performed as required by the permit.This
testing is necessary to ascertain whether or not your wastewater treatment system is functioning
properly. As discussed during the inspection,when effluent is not being generated for sampling,you
may need to schedule your effluent collection on days when significant amounts of water will be used at
the residence,such as on wash days. Please note that your prompt attention to these issues will help
avoid future compliance problems.
If you have any questions, please contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,
7zeo,
Michael Parker, Regional Supervisor
