The treatment and disposal systems appear to be operating satisfactorily. The system appears to be in compliance with the permit. As discussed on site during the inspection, the potential future addition of non -domestic wastewater flow from a separate source such as a restaurant would require a permit modification. The attached inspection report should be self-explanatory. However, should you have any questions or concerns regarding the report, please feel free to contact me at 704-235-2198 or via email at Edward.watsongncdenr. _ og_v.
