at 1 <br /> leakage is still likely to be occurring intermittently. As we are nearing summer and the snowmelt and <br /> the rainy season are gone,the tanks will not leak as much. If the septic tanks are found to be leaking, <br /> they must be resealed to become watertight. <br /> The goal of the City is to assure that the existing system is functioning properly and if the system is <br /> not functioning properly to understand why so we can effectively repair or replace the system. <br /> At this time, no vegetation has been established in the drainage swale and mound. A water meter <br /> must be installed in the residence to confirm the quantity of water being used within the residence. <br /> When the flow from the residence is quantified, we will be able to determine how much water is <br /> leaking into the septic tanks. The City has a water meter which we will allow the owner to use for <br /> free on a temporary basis, but their plumber must install the unit. Until we know that the septic <br /> system will not work properly and that it is being overloaded by excessive quantities of water, the <br /> City does not believe additional work to the mound or tanks is justified at this time. After it is <br /> determined that the system is not able to work and it is not being overloaded, the City will then <br /> recommend repair or replacement of the septic system as is necessary. <br /> Please contact me at the City Offices if there are any questions. <br /> Sincere , <br /> 0-/ <br /> Steph n Weckman <br /> On-Site Systems Manager <br /> I <br /> i <br />
