and monitoring requirements established within the General Permit. The items below show what conditions were noted at
your facility:
The following violations were present and on -going on the site:

prevent seepage of sewage to the surface of the ground. At the time of this compliance inspection the.following

b. The chlorinator had several inches of solids/sludge accumulation. See photo 1.
