ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. The tanks appear structurally sound, but a full visual inspection was not possible in some areas.
2. It appears that septage is being transferred to/from the facility in a safe and sanitary manner, but again a full
visual inspection was not possible. No obvious spills or leaks. No vectors or odors noted.
3. The required signs are posted and the access road is adequate.
4. It appears that the approved setbacks are being met.
5. Within the containment wall one of the tanks is still tilted. No septage detention may occur in these two new
tanks within the containment wall until the new permit is issued. The lower outlet holes on the back of the
containment wall have not been closed in yet. PVC lines are now installed thru the top of the concrete wall in
front of all the tanks.

Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding this inspection report.
