Surface Irrigation Wastewater Treatment
and Disposal System
Person County
On November 6, 2019, staff of the NC Division of Water Resources (DWR), Water Quality
Regional Operations Section (WQROS), inspected the subject single-family residence surface
irrigation wastewater treatment and disposal system. The purpose of the visit was to conduct a
compliance inspection. I would like to thank Mr. Smith who was very knowledgeable of the
System.
On the day of the inspection all of the single family wastewater treatment and application
equipment appeared to be well maintained. The septic tank had been pumped approximately three
years ago. There was not enough waste water in the tanks to run the system. The drip field
appeared to be in good condition.
If you have any questions, please contact me at [phone] [e-mail].
