Box 66 <br /> Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 <br /> June 12, 2000 <br /> Bob Wyatt <br /> 4220 Watertown Road <br /> Maple Plain, Mn 55359 <br /> Dear Mr. Wyatt: <br /> This letter is in regards to the damage to your septic system by Northern States Power Company(NSP) <br /> on or around December 20, 1999. <br /> The existing septic system is a non-compliant septic system due to the fact that the drainfield does not <br /> meet the required three (3) foot separation to the seasonally high watertable. A soil boring was <br /> conducted by Orono City staff to determine the depth to the watertable. Due to the fact that the septic <br /> system is non-compliant, the septic system will need to be replaced. <br /> Orono Municipal Code does not allow an existing non-compliant septic system to be repaired. This <br /> is found in Section 12.30, Subdivision 5, Letter C, Number 3: <br /> "Existing non-compliant systems shall be replaced by code systems whenever such classification is <br /> reasonably attainable. If a code system is not achievable due to soil, watertable, or lot limitations, the <br /> ISTS may be replaced or repaired such that it becomes a compliant system." <br /> The existing septic system cannot be repaired as per Orono Municipal Code. Orono Code requires that <br /> a"code" septic system be installed. A septic design submitted by S-P Testing appears to meet all the <br /> requirements of a "code" system required by Orono. The septic tanks will need to be pumped and <br /> inspected by Orono Staff. The tanks can be used if they are water tight and of the appropriate size. <br /> If the tanks do not meet both criteria, new tanks will need to be installed. <br /> Please contact me if there are any questions regarding this letter at(952) 249 -4600. <br /> R pec , <br /> V.614,// <br /> ris Pence <br /> On-Site Systems Manager <br /> Telephone(952)249-4600 • Fax(952)249-4616 <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us <br />
