He informed me that he does have a well but there is no plumbing inside the cabin. They wash dishes in a dish pan and throw the water in the woods. They have an outhouse 90 feet from the lake and the well is on the other side of the cabin from the outhouse. Mr. Faus wanted to know what was required of him for updating the septic system. I told him that unless the use intensifies(3-4 times a summer currently)or he adds plumbing inside the cabin that Orono was not going to worry about his system. He is willing to do whatever is necessary but it doesn't seem to warrant anything right now. His number is 612- 926-0677. 1 � -� � SEPTIC SYSTEM INVENTOR Y Address: 550 Big Island PID: 22-117-23 31 0001 Building residence BRs Install'd for: 1 In Musa: No Tvne: Permit#: none Date of Permit: Installer: unknown System Type outhouse Experimental: no Appliances SYSTEM CONDITION Conformity: 3 Tank Condition: DF condition: 14 Failure Pot: SEPTIC TANKS Material: Capacity: Setback to Bldg: Cesspool: DRAINFIELD Length of Lines # Lines: Trench Width: Treatment Area: Type of Filter Soil Boring: yes Tile Size: Under Tile Perc Rate: Setback DF-Bldg: DF Ht above Wt: 1 Soil Type: sandy loam, loam, clay loa Limitations: none WELL DATA Setbacks - Well-Tanks: Well-DF: Report in File no Pump Type: Depth: Diameter: Method: INSPECTION RECORD PUMPOUT RECORD DA TE DESCRIPTION COMPLIANCE DA TE GALL ONS 6/21/82 located well and OH 10/16/85 no change 10/31/90 no change; OH 3' above NoHW 4 5/13/96 non-conforming,repair by 12/31/98 3 10/24/O1 non-compliant,replace by 12/31,�.�6'1TT 3 �� I�c��orl r�.on _C�l�ar�f-- 1,�,4�er- �-er�— ��d 1��° --1-5 /a�i c� � . - _ go' �o�-� _ � -- � . --, a 1�� 1�-!� � o� O �� O CI'TY OF ORONO a _:- I � „?� � MunicipalOffices �, Street Address Mailing Address: `�� G'�' 2750 Kelley Parkway P.O. Box 66 �i Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 �kESH�4 August 16, 2007 Dear Owner of 550 BIG ISLAND: This is a friendly reminder to all Orono property owners with non-compliant, on-site septic systems: Septic System Upgrade Deadline is Fast Approaching Beginning in the mid-1990s the City began to identify those septic systems that made use of trench drainfields, a majority of which do not maintain the minimum required vertical separation above seasonal water tables. Each existing system was subjected to soil borings to determine the seasonal water table depth. When a system was identified as non-compliant, the owner was notified of the need to bring the system into compliance and given several years to complete the upgrade. The deadlines to upgrade were divided into whether or not the property was in the Shoreland District (within 1000' of a lake or within 300' of a protected tributary stream). Properties in the Shoreland District were given until December 31, 2007 to become compliant. Properties outside the Shoreland area with non-compliant systems were allowed until December 31, 2010 to conform to the septic code. The above noted property is located in the Shoreland District and needs to be updated before December 31, 2007. Don't wait until the last minute! The City is strongly recommending that property owners not wait until the deadline arrives to bring their systems into compliance. The process to upgrade your septic system can be quite lengthy. The first step in the process is to hire a site evaluator and designer to determine what type of system is required and provide the blueprint for the system installation. Secondly, the property owner must then contract with a septic system installer to have the system constructed. The installation of a septic system is very weather dependent, especially for mound systems, which can only be installed when the ground is relatively dry, i.e. typically June through September. Contractors' schedules fill up quickly, so iYs important to start your planning and design process now to ensure a timely installation. The period of time from deciding to update your septic system to the actual installation can easily exceed three to four months, or more. Please contact the Building and Zoning Department at 952-249-4600 with any questions you may have about bringing your septic system into compliance.
