V. ADDITIONAL REGIONAL STAFF REVIEW ITEMS
1. The report is confusing. It references using two existing septic tanks. Are they being used in their original place?
Are they being moved? Are they being closed? Is there an existing house there? Is it being removed and a new
structure being built? If so, what system was there for the previous residence.
2. Attachment 1 Boundary map is different than the aerial map indicating the tracts to evaluate.
3. In Attachment 3: Soil Evaluation and Ksat Map, Map WW-1 indicates an existing septic area and proposed drip
irrigation area. Please explain how or why there is a septic "leach" field, and Granville County denied a new leach
field.
