V. ADDITIONAL REGIONAL STAFF REVIEW ITEMS
The application field(s) are in a wooded area which needs typical maintenance for wire -fencing, removal of small
saplings and downed trees and fill dirt for depressions.
This is and older system and does not have a rain -sensor, so permittee must monitor system during inclement weather.
There was a small area within Zone 3 that exhibited slight ponding, at the time of inspection. The application fields
qppeared in good order given the unusually wet weather conditions over the past several months. The field sites are
slightly upslope from the owner's yard, which was soft -to -wet, and could be contributing some drainage to that area,
but there was no obvious sign of run-off, at the time of inspection.
