nn ^ Meets or exceeds current City standards in ail respects relating to design, construction, and loci (ion. Appears to be operating
properly.
02
□ 3
Does not meet all current City standards for new construction (1978 Code) but in most rei uects appears to be designed,
located, and constructed generally in accordance with previous codes. System appears to be fi nctioning properly; no major
upgrading of the system is required at this time.
Does not meet current City standards in many respects relating to design, construction, or lof ition. Appears to be operating
adequately at this time, but has a relatively high potential for future problems. No major up, rading of system is required at
this time.
□ 4 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 0** 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.
