Box 66 Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 February 25,2000 Arthur M. Blair 790 Old Crystal Bay Road South Long Lake,Mn 55356 Dear Mr. Blair: 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 checking the system for compliance with State and City codes. The inspection also includes examining the septic tanks to determine if a pumpout is needed. Finally,the inspector looks for any site limitations that would inhibit the septic system from 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 separation 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 years. 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 separation 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 regularly 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. If this 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 regarding this letter,feel free to contact me at the City Offices at 249-4600.
