ADDITIONAL COMMENTS

1) An appropriate septage land application sign was present at the entrance to the site.
2) Roads where passable in most areas, some areas of the access road were flooded and muddy.
3) Some field markers were run over or missing. Any field markers knocked down or out of place need to
be restored.
4) Waste activated sludge was discharged on the boundary of permitted area west of storage tanks in a
manner violating permit conditions. (see observed violations pg.1)
5) Areas of field 1 and 2 have little to no crop cover. Soil surfaces in areas of field 1 and 2 were crusted by
past applications of lime mud contributing to poor crop stands. Fields 1 and 2 have areas where weeds
dominate existing vegetation. Weed control is needed and lime mud affected areas need Bermuda
grass crop stands reestablished
6) pH not checked. No application at time of inspection.
7) No objectionable odors noticed.
8) Setbacks not checked.
9) Records not checked.
