City Ordinance No. 210 requires that each on-site sewage treatment system in Orono be inspected on a regular basis.The on-site sewage
treatment system at the above address has been inspected and appears to fall into the category checked below.

1 Meets or exceeds current City standards in all respects relating to design,construction,and location.Appears to be operating
properly.
2 Does not meet all current City standards for new construction (1978 Code) but in most respects appears to be designed,
located, and constructed generally in accordance with previous codes.System appears to be functioning properly; no major
upgrading of the system is required at this time.
El3 Does not meet current City standards in many respects relating to design,construction,or location.Appears to be operating
adequately at this time, but has a relatively high potential for future problems. No major upgrading of system is required at
this time.
UJ4 System may or may not meet current City standards for design, construction or location, but is failing to properly treat and
dispose of the current input, and is endangering a water supply,or is a source of pollution to surface or groundwaters,or is
creating a safety hazard,or is otherwise creating a public nuisance.Please contact the City Inspector to discuss system repair/
replacement procedures, If drainfield replacement is necessary,soil testing will usually be required,and a design and site plan
must be submitted for review.Your contractor must obtain a permit before work is started.

City ordinance number 100 requires that each on-site sewage treatment system in Orono be inspected on a regular basis.
The on-site sewage treatment system at the above address has been inspected and appears to fall into the category
checked below.
(This is an existing system [ ] new construction)
SYSTEM CONFORMITY (1-3): I
( "CODE SYSTEM"-A system which meets all the location, design, and construction standards of the current City
Codes, and which is operating satisfactorily by treating and disposing of the entire current sewage input
without discharging any pollutants into ground or surface waters.
2 "CONFORMING SYSTEM"-A system which does not meet all the location, design, and construction standards of the
current City Codes, but was installed according to the code in effect at the time of installation, and which
is operating satisfactorily by treating and disposing of the entire current sewage input without discharging
any pollutants into ground or surface waters.
3 "NON-CONFORMING SYSTEM"-A prohibited system; a system located within a designated 100-year floodplain; any
system which may or may not meet all the location, design, and construction standards of the current City
Codes and which is failing for any reason; and any system with less than 3 feet of unsaturated soil or sand
between the distribution device and the limiting soil characteristics.
(The limiting soil characteristic [ ] has or)has not been identified at this time. If the limiting soil
characteristic has not been identified, this classification may be subject to revision.)
TANK CONDITION (5-10):
T inspection indicates:
Pumpout not needed at this time.
6 Solids accumulation in tanks indicates they should be pumped out this year to help prevent future problems.
7 Solids accumulation in tanks is at a critical level. Tanks should be pumped out as soon as possible.
8 System is discharging to the surface. Tanks must be pumped out within 48 hours to eliminate surface discharge.
9 Inspection risers missing-tanks could not be inspected. Inspection risers (4" dia. pipe) must be installed in each
tank at next pumpout. If tanks have not been pumped out within the last three years, they should be pumped
out now.
10 Inspection pipe is located directly over tank baffle (does not give accurate measurement of solids accumulation).

SYSTEM COMPLIANCE (1-3) : 3
1 Code System: Meets or exceeds current City standards in all respects relating to design,
construction, and location. Appears to be operating properly.
2 Compliant System: Does not meet all current City standards for new construction, but in
most respects appears to be designed, located, and constructed in accordance with previous
codes and is functioning properly.
3' Non-Compliant System: System may or may not meet current City standards for design,
construction, or location, but is failing to properly treat and dispose of the current
input; and any system with less than three feet of vertical separation between the bottom
of the drainfield and the saturated soil level.
(The saturated soil level is X ] or is not [ ] identified under this septic system. If the
saturated soil level is not identified, this classification is subject to revision.)

' Pumpout not needed at this time.
6 Solids accumulation in tanks indicates they should be pumped out this year.
7 System is discharging to the surface. Tanks must be pumped out within 48 hours.
8 Inspection risers missing-tanks could not be inspected. If tanks have not been pumped out
within three years, they should be pumped out and risers installed now.
9 Inspection pipe is located over tank baffle-can not measure solids accumulation. If tanks
have not been pumped out within three years, they should be pumped out now.
10 One or more tanks are cesspools, which means the septic system is non-compliant.
(The tanks are A or are not [ ] water tight or the condition is [ ] unknown. If the tanks
are not confirmed to be watertight, this classification is subject to revision.)

Contact the City Inspector immediately. Repair must be completed within 90 days.
14 Drainfield extent and condition unknown.
POTENTIAL FOR SYSTEM FAILURE: (system age and condition, soils, etc. ) : medium
COMMENTS: In order to confirm that your septic system meets Minnesota standards, soil borings
were performed to verify a 3 foot separation between the drainfield and the seasonal water
table. The separation is 0 feet and the system is non-compliant. Repair or replacement of the
septic system is required by 12/31/2008.

Dear Mr. Osgood:
An inspection of your septic system was conducted on August 28, 2000. A summary of the inspection
is below.
Septic Tank Condition
1. Pumpout needed within one year(last pumpout date unknown).
The septic system is non-compliant due to a lack of a three foot separation distance between the bottom
of the drainfield to the seasonally high watertable. The three foot requirement is a State Code, not a City
Code. A soil boring was conducted to determine the depth of the seasonally watertable. The septic
system must be replaced by December 31,2010.
Enclosed is a list of state licensed septic contractors who work in Orono on a regular basis. Also
enclosed is a fact sheet explaining how a septic system functions properly. Finally, an as-built drawing
is enclosed that shows the approximate location of the septic system.
If you have any questions regarding this report, please contact me at the City Offices at 249-4600.cectfully,

This report must be kept on the premises with the system location and pumping records.
