Stat.§ 115.55)An imminent threat to public health and safety(ITPHS)must be upgraded,replaced,or its use discontinued within ten months of receipt of this notice or within a shorter period if required by local ordinance. If the system is failing to protect ground water,the system must be upgraded, replaced, or its use discontinued within the time required by local ordinance. If an existing system is not failing as defined in law,and has at least two feet of design soil separation, then the system need not be upgraded,repaired,replaced,or its use discontinued, notwithstanding any local ordinance that is more strict. This provision does not apply to systems in shoreland areas, Wellhead Protection Areas,or those used in connection with food, beverage, and lodging establishments as defined in law. www.pca.state.mn.us • 651-296-6300 • 800-657-3864 • TTY 651-282-5332 or 800-657-3864 • Available in alternative formats wq-wwists4-31b • 6/4/14 Page 3 of 3 ONSITI TI4LAT` Soil Observation Log Tilcnrr•,r Nr PRooanr. �. �- Project ID: v 04.17.2C Client: Mr. Mrs. Tom Egan Location / Address: 360 Big Island, Orono, Soil parent material(s): (Check all that apply) El Outwash ❑ Lacustrine ❑ Loess El Till ❑ Alluvium Cl Bedrock ❑ Landscape Position: (check one) ❑ Summit El Shoulder ❑ Back/Side Slope ❑ Foot Slope ❑Toe Slope Slope shape Vegetation: Grass Soil survey map units: Slope%: 6.0 Elev.
