Section D:Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Mikal Willmer and Dan Boss conducted a Compliance Evaluation Inspection (CEI) at 1736 Hemphill
Road on 10/28/2016. The owner, Frank Hutto,was present for the inspection. The property and
system appeared to be well maintained. The owner said he has the septic tank pumped out every two
years. The owner also states there is a previously unacknowledged drainfield in his yard that is
connected to the septic system.
The effluent pipe was buried in the stream bed and was not accessible for routine monitoring at the
time of the inspection.The permittee offered to fix the pipe again if requested.
Spoke with Mr. Hutto on 11/4/2016. Requested he attempt to locate the effluent pipe a couple feet back
from the stream bank so he can visually inspect the outfall. Inspector, Mikal Willmer spoke with Mr.
Hutto on 11/7/2016. He stated he repaired the end of the effluent pipe and it is now accessible for
permit monitoring.
Inspector Mikal Willmer revisited the"site on 11/8/2016 to document the repair to the effluent pipe.The
pipe was-exposed and repaired, but was sitting on the stream bed. Mr. Hutto agreed to sever the pipe
closer to the stream bank so it sits above the stream bed.
