STATUS OF PERMIT:
A Permit and Registration was issued to V&S Septic Service, Inc. to operate a Septage Management Firm on January
12, 2013.

PURPOSE OF SITE VISIT:
Comprehensive Inspection

STATUS OF PAST NOTED VIOLATIONS:
15A North Carolina Administrative Code 13B .0844(b) states: All permitted septage management firms shall
display decals or lettering on each side of every pumper vehicle operated by the firm. The decals or lettering shall
include the name, address (town name), phone number, and septage management firm permit number. All decals or
lettering on the pumper vehicle shall be no less than three inches in height and plainly visible. All decals or lettering
shall be permanently attached (i.e., no removable signs)

Inspections of the pumper vehicles performed on February 2, 2013 and February 20, 2013 found that the majority of
lettering on each vehicle did not meet the minimum height requirement of 3-inches. Therefore, V&S Septic Service,
Inc. was found in violation of 15A NCAC 13B .0844(b).

Inspection of the pumper vehicles on April 4, 2013 found that the lettering on each vehicle had been replaced with
lettering 3-inches in height meeting the requirements of 15A NCAC 13B .0844(b). Therefore, this violation is
resolved. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS

1. The purpose of this inspection was to perform a follow-up inspection to determine efforts to comply with the
Notice of Deficiency that was issued to V&S Septage Service, Inc. on February 25, 2013. Please refer to “Status
of Past Noted Violations” for comments.
2. The Septage Firm name shown on the approved permit and application is V&S Septic Service, Inc. However, all
trucks inspected did not have “Inc.” included within the firm name affixed to the pumper vehicles. Therefore,
within 60 days complete one of the following:
a. Submit a revised permit application with the firm name shown as it is currently affixed to the pumper
vehicles, or
b. Provide decals or lettering on all pumper vehicles to display exactly what is shown on the approved
2013 permit and application.

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