RE: DEP REVIEW OF PLAN FOR SEPTIC REPAIR PLAN AT 544 FOSTER STREET
Dear Ms. Starr:
We have received review comments from the Northeast Office of DEP for our septic system repair at
544 Foster Street. The review did not result in any significant changes. The following two
clarifications were completed:
1. Our details and specifications were designed around the Bio-Microbics MicroFAST 0.5
system. We edited our notes to clarify the appropriate model.
2. Since this system does not require a distribution box, we removed the distribution box
specification from our general notes.
We also Submitted a letter to DEP that authorizes us to sign for the applicant on Title 5 issues. These
clarifications do not affect any previous Board of Health or Conservation Commission concerns. We
have enclosed three revised plans (latest revision July 9, 2001) for your records. Please let us know
if you need an additional fee for this submittal. If you have any questions or require additional
information,please call me at 508-339-0806. Thank you for your attention.
Sincerely,

RE:PLAN REVISIONS FOR SEPTIC REPAIR PLAN AT 544 FOSTER STREET
Dear Ms. Starr:
As requested by your office last Friday we are submitting a $60 check to cover your review of the
revised septic system plan for 544 Foster Street. We have also enclosed three revised plans (latest
revision April 26, 2001).
We moved the septic tank and pump chamber to the front of the house to increase the separation
from the wetlands. Please disregard the previous plans submitted April 16, 2001. We have also
enclosed a revised buoyancy calculation and a revised system curve calculation for your records.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please call me at 508-339-0806. Thank
you for your attention.

Re: 544 Foster Street
Dear David:
This is to notify you that the plans dated April 26, 2001 will be approved depending upon
DEP approval. On February 22, 2001 at our regular meeting, the Board of Health granted
a variance to 310 CMR 15.140 to allow a sieve analysis to determine LTAR. This must
also receive DEP approval.
Local variances that were granted are as follows:
• NA 5.02 distances—
1. 50' to wetlands instead of 100' for leach area
2. 25' to wetlands instead of 75' for septic tank
• NA 9.04—no reserve area
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Board of Health Office at
978-688-9540.

j Dear Ms. Starr:
Today, I received a letter from Ms. Susan Ford dated March 12, 2001. T am somewhat confused by
the content. Do you need any additional information from my office to complete your plan review?
' Our F'ehruary 16, 2001 cover letter transmitted three copies of the proposed plan, a North Andover

As you know, we did not notify abutters for the 5Qard or Health nearing wndilu—tcu vi► kC;Ulua y Lys
2001. We had specifically asked leis. Ford if the isOi-i required notification for the variances
requested. The answer was "no". Based on Title 5 (18.404 (2jj, the variances that were granted did
1 not require abutter notification. For your convenience, we have enclosed the list of the variances
grated at the February 22,2001 public hearing.
q
We concede that there was a concern raised at the public hearing regarding the permitting status of
the Single Home FAST system_ At the hearing, we said that we suspected there was some clerical
misunderstanding regarding the FAST permit and that we would be willing to investi gate other
alte:n,lives if t1'.: FAST system permit had expired. As discussed with yoii- last week; the Single
Hole FAST system proposed for this project is accepted by DEP®it does not expire until 2063_
