ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. The Septage Land Application Site consists of Field 1 (2.0 acres) and Field 2 (4.4 acres) for a total of 6.4 usable
acres.
2. The site is permitted for land application of domestic septage.

3. The site had accessible all-weather roads to the septage land application field covered under the permit.
4. The signage that states “No Trespassing” and “Septage Land Application Site” that was missing on 10/31, 2017 has been replaced.
5. Both fields had disposal area boundaries that were delineated with permanent markers except for the missing marker at the Northwest corner (entrance) of Field 1. 6. All septage discharges appear to have been made within the disposal area boundary.
7. No evidence of standing liquid or pooled waste was observed. The waste appeared to be evenly distributed throughout the field.
8. No ruts were observed. 9. No objectionable odors were observed.
10. The nutrient management plan has fescue and Bermuda grass as the established crop. Areas that develop less
than 80% groundcover by fescue must be reseeded with tall fescue.
11. The possibility of expanding Field 1 was discussed during the inspection. Upon looking at the map in the
permit there is a house located at the northeastern edge of field one. Any expansion of the field must consider the buffer requirements and require a permit modification. Contact Connie Wylie at 910-433-3352 or [e-mail] for additional information.
