This inspection was conducted to determine if the system is being operated and maintained in compliance with General Permit no. NCG550000. Prior to the inspection, Ms. Armeni spoke with the owner, Mr. Bill Mulcay. Mr. Mulcay indicated the septic tank is pumped every three years. The tank was last pumped on April 3, 2019 and will be pumped again this year (2022). The property is used as a vacation home for Bill and Kathy Mulcay, and both the system and property appeared well-maintained. Mr. Mulcay said they have not seen the system discharge, therefore annual sampling has not been required. The system was not discharging at the time of the inspection. NCG550343 17 (Cont.)
