The Delaney's purchased the home in August of 2001. The existing system is a mound system. The rockbed was found 5' below grade. The maximum fill allowed over the top of a rock bed is 12".

With the drainfield being saturated , surFace discharging is classified as an imminent health hazard which requires the system to be repaired or disconnected within 10 months. I contacted a pumper who has an invoice from April 2001 which indicates there were problems with the drainfield. None of this data was made available to the buyer prior to closing. State Law Chapter No. 617, H.F. No. 2158 Subd.6 Disclosure of Individual Sewage Treatment System to Buyer states that after August 31, 1994, before signing an agreement to sell or transfer real property, the seller must disclose in writing to the 1
