C. Further Evaluation is Required by the Board of Health:
Conditions exist which require further evaluation by the Board of Health in order to determine if the system
is failing to protect public health,safety oi-the environment.
1. System will pass unless Board of Health determines in accordance with 310 CMR 15.303(1)(b)that the
system is not functioning in a manner which will protect public health,safety and the environment;
Cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of a surface water
-- Cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of a bordering vegetated wetlauid or a salt marsh
2. System will fail unless the Board of Health(and Public Water Supplier,if any)determines that the
system is functioning in a manner that protects the public health,safety and environment:
_ The system has a septic tank and soil absorption system(SAS)and the SAS is within 100 feet of a
surface water supply or tributary to a surface water supply.
The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS is within a'gone l of a public water supply.
-- The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS is within 50 feet of a private water supply well.
_ The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS is less than 100 feet but 50 feet or more frorn a
private water supply well".Method used to determine distance__
**This system passes if the well water analysis,performed at a DEP certified laboratory,for coliform
bacteria and volatile organic compounds indicates that the well is free from pollution from that facility and
the presence of ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen is equal to or less than 5 ppm,provided that no other
failure criteria are triggered.A copy of the analysis must be attached to this form.

Flo Discharge or ponding of effluent to the surface of the ground or surface waters due to an overloaded or
— ^clogged SAS or cesspool
No—Static liquid level in the distribution box above outlet invert due to an overloaded or clogged SAS or
cesspool
_
—No_Liquid depth in cesspool is less than 6"below invert or available volume is 1/2 day flow.__ io_ Required pumping more than 4 times in the last year NOT due to clogged or obstructed pipe(s).
Number of times pumped
No Any portion of the SAS,cesspool or privy is below high ground water elevation.
__ o_ Any portion of cesspool or privy is within 100 feet of a surface water supply or tributary to a ssurface lrl
water supply.
_faro Any portion of a cesspool or privy is within a Zone I of a public well.
_No_ Any portion of a cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of a private water supply well.

supply well with no acceptable water quality analysis. [This system passes if the well water analysis,
performed at a ICDEP certified laboratory,for coliforrn bacteria and volatile organic compounds
indicates that the well is free from pollution from that facility and the presence of ammonia
nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen is equal to or less than 5 pprn,provided that no other failure criteria
are triggered.A copy of the analysis must be attached to this farm.)
o (Yes/No)The system fails.I have determined drat one or more of the above failure criteria exist as described
in 310 CMR 15503,therefore the system fails.The system owner should contact the Board of Health to
