1. All photographs were taken by Troy Harrison on March 10 2016.

2. This facility is currently permitted to operate two 10,000 gallon tanks and three 30,000 gallon tanks for the
storage of domestic septage and grease trap pumpings. One 10,000 gallon tank has been removed and the other
10,000 gallon tank is for water only.

3. A screening box (box) was observed just under half full. Part of the top of the box was covered and inside of
one corner was a six inch PVC pipe. There is a concern about vectors and how long the waste is stored in the
box before disposal. According to Mr. Lentz, a bar screen has been ordered to place in the box for better
collection of bigger trash items. A letter describing how the box is used has been received by the Solid Waste
Section. A dumpster was observed nearby with no sign of septage waste just general solid waste.

4. Current Set-back/buffer requirements appear to have been met.

5. Appropriate signage (No Trespassing signs) is posted for the site.

6. All weather roads are maintained for access to the site.

7. The tanks appeared to be structurally sound.

8. The area around the detention and treatment area was found to be free of spills and debris.

9. Odors observed in the area of the detention and treatment area but not off property boundary.

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