(pictures are attached following the inspection report) - The irrigation equipment at the spray fields need replacement/repair. Please, let our office know how and when these issues will be rectified. The ORC stated that everything is currently working at the facility but that more repairs are in the process (ex. repairing the spray heads). Other items in need of repair/replacement is the gates at the main entrance of the lagoon and across the street at the spray fields. Also, the liner of the lagoon has numerous tears. There was a Ground water violation in March 2019 at MW-3. Total Nitrate Nitrogen was 14.6 mg/L but the limit is 10mg/L. The fields across the street from the lagoon were observed with high grass and fields need to be maintained. Make sure all logs (Maintenance logs and and inspection logs) are kept and maintained. The facility is in noncompliance due to some of the repairs needed at the facility. Continue to work repairs and let us know if you have any questions.

The ORC stated that he is working on replacing the spray heads in Zone 2 site 2 currently. The spray fields behind the lagoon were turned on during inspection. There are some numerous spray heads that need repair. There is no gates that can be locked to restrict access to the lagoon or spray fields since the hurricanes. Section M. number 9. of the current permit states that public access to the irrigation sites and wastewater treatment facilities shall be prohibited. MW-3 was tagged but not locked. ORC stated he was going to get a lock for the well and the ORC stated he would add new stickers to identify the proper well number. Page 6 of 6 'ail q• �- c tyf: ��L � ter � � � t'�{��;�='•� 3��
