Box 66 <br /> Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 <br /> April 16, 1998 <br /> Mr. &Mrs. Arne <br /> 125 Truffula Trail <br /> Long Lake, MN 55356 <br /> Dear Mr. &Mrs. Arne: <br /> Mr. and Mrs. Arne contacted me on February 23, 1998 to inspect their septic system to get my <br /> opinion of problems they had observed at their new residence (a Certificate of Occupancy was issued <br /> Oct. 10, 1997). The inspection revealed that the septic tanks leak and the sewage pump has a short <br /> circuit which needs to be fixed as soon as possible. The septic tanks leak (mainly the pump tank) at <br /> the manhole riser which can be remedied by regrading the area around the tanks and by resealing <br /> joints with tar strips. <br /> Following my initial inspection, I indicated to the Ame's and Mr. Olson that the electrical problem <br /> requires immediate attention to prevent a sewage backup into the residence and to eliminate unsafe <br /> electrical connections, but the leaking tanks could be repaired when the soil conditions are right. The <br /> ground must be either dry or slightly frozen to assure the ground is firm enough to get grading <br /> equipment on site without damaging the yard. <br /> I contacted Mr. Olson, on February 24 and described the aforementioned problems on the property. <br /> He informed me that he would fix the problems and contact me when the work was done so that I <br /> could reinspect the system. The following is a chronology of events regarding the septic system <br /> repair since February 23, 1998. <br /> CHRONOLOGY <br /> • February 23, 1998 Mike Arne called and asked for inspection as soon as possible regarding <br /> septic problems. <br /> • February 23, 1998 I inspected septic system and discovered tank leak and blown circuit <br /> breaker. <br /> Telephone (612) 473-7357 • FAX 473-0510 <br />
