The system consists of 2- 1000 gallon septic tanks, 1 -1000 gallon pump tank, a pressurizedmound system with a 10' x 66' rock bed, built In 2002 for a 5 bedroom home. Soil boring #1 found mottled soil (redox features) at 1.8' into the original soil & the original soil at elev. 97.5 & the bottom of the rock bed at elev. 99.6 leaving 2.1' of sand below the rock bed & a 3.9' separation from the bottom of the rock & redox features. Soil boring #2 found mottled soil at 1.5' into the original soil & the original soil at elev. 97.0 & the bottom of the rock bed at elev. 99.2 leaving 2.2' of sand & a 3.7' separation. This system meets the required 3' separation from the bottom of the rock bed. The tanks were pumped by Duane's Septic Service & were found to be compliant. Nothing other than gray water (laundry, showers etc.) human waste & toilet tissue should be disposed of into the septic tanks. Garbage disposals are not recommended due to adding more solids & fine solids passing through into the system. Iron filters are also not recommended & should be diverted out of the system. Excessive amounts of soaps, antibacterial soaps, cleaning agents, shower cleaners used every shower & chlorine agents may kill the bacteria you need living in the system. Additives are not recommended. Recommend to pump & clean you tanks through the manhole by a certified pumper every 2 years. Check with your pumper to set up a schedule. This certificate of compliance is no guarantee that this system will continue to function indefinitely. Steven B. Schirmers SP TESTING INC. Steven B.
