A summary of the inspection is below. Septic Tank Condition l. Pumpout needed as the tanks become full The septic system is non-compliant because it is failing by visibly discharging untreated sewage to the surface. This is considered to be an imminent public health threat. This discharge could have adverse effects to the environment including contamination of your well or neighboring wells. City Code requires that the system be repaired or replaced within 90 days upon the date of this letter. The septic system must be replaced by September 31,2000. Until the system is repaired or replaced, the septic tanks must be used as holding tanks and pumped when full so as not to dischazge untreated sewage to the surface. Enclosed is a list of state licensed septic contractors who regularly work in Orono. Also enclosed is a fact sheet explaining how a septic system functions. Finally, an as-built drawing is enclosed showing the approximate location of the septic system. Please contact the inspector at the City Offices at 249-4600 as soon as possible to discuss your options regazding this situation. Re ectfully �,� �iL� �s Pence On-Site Systems Manager Enclosure In the event this inspection report is used to satisfy the requirements for a mortgage or other ttansfer of property,be advised that this report does no guarantee or certify the eaisting system will contumue to fimcHon properly,but is merely an opinion of the adequacy of the system under current conditions based on the available mformation This report must be kept on the premises with the system location and pumping records.

Box 66 Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 February 25, 2000 Mathew&Heidi Hoy 500 North Arm Drive Mound,Mn 55364 Dear Mr. & Mrs. Hoy: � The City of Orono implemented a septic system inspection program in 1978. City staff inspects all properties in Orono with a septic system once every two to three years. The inspection entails checlang the system for compliance with State and City codes. The inspection also includes exam;n;ng the septic tanks to deternune if a pumpout is needed. Finally,the inspector looks for any site limitations that would inhibit the septic system &om functioning properly. A report is then mailed to the homeowner explaining the condition of the system and if the septic tanks needed to be pumped. The report also includes information if the system needs repairs and the time frame for when the repairs need to be completed. In 1989, Minnesota passed a law that stated all new and existing septic systems must have a three foot vertical sepazation between the bottom of the drainfield and the seasonal watertable. This then forced City staff to conduct soil borings along with the other aspects of the inspection stated above. City Council then passed a resolution that those properties located with in the shoreland district would need to replace a non-compliant septic system within seven years. Those properties not within the shoreland district must replace a non- compliant septic system within ten yeazs. The septic system at the above described property has been deemed non-compliant by the City of Orono because it does not meet the three foot vertical sepazation requirement in the drainfield. The septic system must be replaced by December 31,2000. If you disagree with the inspection results,there is an appeals process. Enclosed is a list of State licensed � septic contractors and inspectors who work regulazly in Orono. You may contact an inspector on this list to independently inspect your septic system for compliance with State and City codes. If the septic system is found to be compliant and is issued a certificate of compliance,the system will not need to be replaced. If the system is issued a notice of non-compliance,the septic system will need to be replaced by December 31, 2000. ff tlus is the avenue you wish to pursue,please contact an inspector as soon as possible to set up a time for the inspection. City staff will not be on-site when the independent inspector conducts the inspection. � If there are any questions regazding this letter,feel free to contact me at the City Offices at 249-4600.
