CITY of ORONO <br />Poet Office 13ox 66•Crystal Ray, Mtnneaota 5.`i:141*Municipal Offices <br />On the North Shore of Lake Minnetonka <br />April 2, 1986 <br />Michael P. Dale <br />261 Cygnet Place <br />Long Lake, MN 55356 <br />Re: Septic System <br />Dear Mr. Dale: <br />I was contacted by Jill Monson of Wayzata Mortgage Company to inspect <br />the septic system serving your home. On April 2, 1986 I inspected the <br />syst_m, and wish to make the following comments regarding the condition of <br />the system: <br />1) The system was installed in 1960 according to City records. <br />Joe Boyer was general contractor for the house but it is unknown <br />who installed the septic system. <br />2) No record exists of any percolation tests, and it is <br />unlikely that any were done when the system was built. <br />3) Records indicate the installation c,f 2-800 gallon concrete <br />block tanks. From my inspection, it appears that the tanks may <br />be somewhat less than 800 gallons capacity, and do not have solid <br />bottoms. In fact the first tank appeared to have 12"-18" of <br />s' ►idge in the bottom. <br />4) It appears that the tanks were recently uncovered and <br />inspection pipes installed. The second inspection pipe is tilted <br />and is not condusive to easy inspection of the tanks. It was <br />impossible to determine whether this pipe was located over a <br />baffle. Perhaps the contractor that did the work can shed some <br />light on this. City records indicate the tanks were pumped on <br />1-2-85 by Sullivans Services, and a total of 1400 gallons was <br />removed. <br />Bl ILDING R LONtN(, 4717317 • ADMINISTRATION & FINA.N( I - 471 7358 • Pt BI k NORks 414 . 1Cu <br />ASSESSING <br />
