ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
1. An appropriate No Trespassing sign was displayed.
2. Access to the tanks was limited by vegetative growth and materials around the tanks. The area around tanks is required to be free of debris and vegetation to allow for access and inspection for a distance of 5 feet. Within 5 feet of the permitted tanks was a plastic storage tank for use with a mobile or modular office appearing to be partially filled with septage. When used in an SDTF, only tanks that have been inspected and approved by the Division should be used for the storage of septage. This tank needs to
be emptied, the contents properly disposed of, and the tank moved at least 5 feet away from the permitted tanks. 3. The tank numbered S2 is rusted through and cannot not be used until repaired. If the tank cannot be repaired, it should be replaced or taken off of the permit. The visible parts of the other tanks appeared structurally sound. No leaks or spills were observed.
4. Septage transferals appear to have been made in a safe and sanitary manner. 5. No vectors or objectional odors were noticed. 6. Approved setbacks appear to be met 7. The access road was passable.
