Section D: Summary of Finding/Comments (Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Tim Heim of the Asheville Regional Office performed a Compliance Inspection of the Single Family
Residence (SFR) system Permit NCG550692 on August 23, 2022. The system was found to be well
maintained and in compliance with permit requirements. The owner & permittee: Mr. Shook was
present and had a good understanding of how the system worked and its requirements. The septic
tank was reported pumped as required. There are only one or two occupants at this facility and
bathrooms only experience occasional day use.
The system was not observed to be discharging at the time of the inspection, and the permittee
reports never having observed it discharge. No issues of concern were observed in the area of the
filter field or the receiving stream.
Continue to perform regular maintenance and sampling as required by the permit if discharge occurs.
Maintain clear access to the outfall pipe for future inspections by keeping a clear path through
vegetation.
