AREAS OF CONCERN AND COMMENTS:

1) “No Trespassing” sign present as you enter the site.
2) Area around the tanks and facility is well maintained.
3) No issues noticed with the tanks present. No leaks noticed. Inspected the three additional 6,500 gallons
plastic tanks. No issues noticed with the three additional tanks. No issues noticed with the added
screening box. While no visual issues noted, an application for permit modification, updated drawings,
and updated operation manual needs to be submitted.
4) No septage spills noticed.
5) No objectionable odors or vector issues noticed.
6) With the added tanks, the setback distance to the well on the current drawing comes into effect because of
double setbacks with the added volume now over 25,000 gallons. David has abandoned the well. I need
documentation that the well was properly closed out.
7) Records not checked.
8) An application for permit modification, updated drawings, and updated operation manual needs to be
submitted as soon as possible. Also, the documentation for the closure of the well needs to be submitted.
