Ok, thank you Jane. To be clear, I'm not setting this up as if our client's are trying to not inform the next buyers. It's merely to find out who is
responsible for the previous violations and if there's a mechanism in place to be sure that the consumer is made aware of it when they purchase.
It appears there really is no mechanism except the hope that a seller discloses it. Which the previous owners did not.

Possible civil action Would It not be unethical? At this point it is In violation of the permit I did not wrte It as a violation because the new
owners were not aware If the deadlines to the letter are not met I can follow-up with further action If needed.

It is the Permittee's responsibility to fix the problems. We visit the sites every 3-5 years. If time allows follow-ups are completed. It is also the
Permittee's responsibility to disclose all information and records to the buyer. We try to track progress but unfortunately we have over 800 of
these permits and all of our staff are tasked with numerous SFR inspections per quarter in addition to their primary job duties.
If I am contacted by a buyer they are given all information available.

Hi,
Thank you everyone for trying to clarify what's going on with this.
In reading both emails, I have some questions. When Jane's email says: The inspection was the result of a complaint regarding the lack of UV
disinfection. I just received a note from Vanessa Manuel (copied on this email as well as my immediate supervisor Michael Hall) that stated
"UV not working".
thought our system didn't have UV so I'm not sure if that complaint is mistaken or if I'm still not understanding this system.
In terms of the dechlorinator, the email says "suspected discharge" and that the dechlorinator hasn't been located yet due to leaves. So from
my understanding a problem hasn't been confirmed yet, is that right?
just want to make sure I'm understanding this as best I can.
Thanks,
Tavi Hawn, LCSW-C

year so I requested that it was assigned to me so it d:d not get inspected multiple times this year.

The 2019 inspection was completed by Vanessa Manuel and can be viewed in our Public Record, link above and in the signature line
My inspection will be uploaded as soon as I complete the letter and get it signed by Vanessa Manuel.
I can make arrangements for the rest of the file to be uploaded as wel .
Vanessa's inspection (September 10, 2019) was not written as a violation.
In her Inspection she does refer to the chlorinator and dechlorinator and that both were being utilized.
Samples (annual permit requirement) were requested and submitted. The results indicated that TSS exceeded the permit limit and the BOD
was not sampled. CBOD was sampled which is the incorrect parameter, should have been BOD. I can not locate any follow-up sampling or
the Permit required annual sampling. All samples are to be maintained by the Permittee.
am not sure why you are referring to soil samples in your email. Soil samples are not required. Effluent samples are required on an annual
basis.

conveying a clear title? This feels majorly important, but the title was clear according to the attorney who performed the closing because
Ro ment'on was made otherwise.
We are working diligently and really hard to get this right for everyone involved - the seilers and the current buyers. We feel our sellers
were not provided sufficient information prior to buying the home based on the current information we've received. They had an
inspection performed on the system by a certified septic company prior to their purchase and the inspection did not note any of the
issues we are being presented with. nor did the listing agent. Arden and myself did not represent the buyers when they purchased the
home.
And now the sellers are disadvantaged in the process of selling this home because this information wasn't accessible to them prior to
purchasing it.
We are asking for any documentation regarding 629 Donlee Dr in regards to any inspections, violations, and any other
information that tan be provided to help the sellers determine how they are going to proceed and what avenues they will need to
take to determine who is at fault for this information not being accessible or provided to them prior to buying the home.
There are a ton of moving parts in this process. And again. we are here to help facilitate this for our sellers to get this right for everyone
i nvolved.
