Re: Septic Repair— 1550 Salem Street
Owner/Applicant: Pamela & Henry Smith
Dear Board Members:
Please find enclosed a sanitary disposal system repair design plan for the above referenced
property. The existing leaching facility has failed a Title 5 inspection and needs to be replaced.
Based on the existing lot's shape, wetland resource areas and limited space for a replacement
leaching facility we are proposing the use of Infiltrator Chambers in a bed configuration. This
system is an alternative septic system approved by the Department of Environmental Protection;
find attached the General Use Approval, dated Feb. 19, 2015, issued by the Department of
Environmental Protection. The General Use Approval for this technology is used in remedial
situations.
The existing dwelling is 4 bedrooms but has a total of 11 rooms as defined by Title 5. Based on
the room count a replacement system designed for 5 bedrooms is required unless a deed
restriction limiting the number of bedrooms to 4 bedrooms is provided. There is not enough
room on the property to design a conventional septic system for 5 bedrooms with a reserve
area that would fully comply with the Code. Therefore, our client is proposing to offer a deed
restriction limiting the number of bedrooms in the dwelling to 4. Please find attached a DRAFT
copy of the deed restriction.
Based on the location of the existing dwelling, the lot's topography, wetland resource areas out
back and the property lines, there is limited space for the location of a replacement septic
system. Based on these existing lot constraints, we are requesting Local Upgrade Approvals
from Title 5 in order to design a replacement leaching facility for this property. Please find
enclosed Form 9A "Application for Local Upgrade Approval".
Local Upgrade Approvals Requested:
® In accordance with 310 CMR 15.405 (1) (a) we are proposing to reduce the required
setback from the proposed leaching facility and the front property tine from 10 feet to 7
feet.

• In accordance with 310 CMR 15.405 (1) (k) we are proposing only one test pit in the area
of the leaching facility instead of two. Based on the existing site constraints it was
difficult to dig 2 test pits in the area of the proposed leaching facility; this was discussed
with the BOH Agent who was witnessing the test who also discussed this with the BOH
office before we left the site the day of the testing.
• In accordance with 310 CMR 15.405 (1) (h) we are proposing to reduce the required
separation distance from the bottom of the SAS to the estimated seasonal high water
table from 4 feet to 3 feet. This will eliminate the need for a pump and eliminate a
mound in the front yard.
Please note the proposed leaching facility will be 100 feet from the isolated wetlands out back
where the existing leaching facility is approximately 80 feet from the wetlands. The existing
leach bed is approximately 88 feet from the existing well. In order to meet the required setback
from the wetlands the new proposed leaching facility will only be 60 feet from the existing well.
Based on this fact our client is proposing to install a new public water service to the existing
dwelling. The existing well will be used for irrigation only.
In accordance with Condition II (18) (d) of the "Standard Conditions for Alternative Soil
Absorption Systems with General Use Certification and/or Approved for Remedial Use" issued
by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) with a revision date of September 26,
2014 please find enclosed the Owner Certification.
We look forward to meeting with the Board at their next regularly scheduled meeting on April
30, 2015 to discuss this project.
If you have any questions prior to the meeting please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
THE MORIN-CAMERON GROUP, INC.

RE: Subsurface Sewage Disposal System Plan for 1550 Salem Street (Map 1068, Lot 54)
Response to Comments
Dear Ms. Grant:
We are In receipt of your review letter dated April 13, 2015. Please find enclosed copies of the
design plan that have been revised to incorporate the comments below and changes to the
wetland line which we will discuss later in this letter.
The following numbered responses correlate with your numbered comments from your review
letter:
1. A "Locus Boundary Key Map" has been added to Sheet 1 of 2 of the Sanitary Disposal
System Repair Plan showing the entire parcel and lot dimensions.
2. A note indicating that watertight access risers shall be set within 6" of finish grade on the
septic tank has been added to the 1,500 Gal, 2-Compartment Monolithic Septic Tank
detail and the System Profile on Sheet 2 of 2 of the Sanitary Disposal System Repair Plan.
3. A note (number 5) has been added to the 9-Outlet (H-20) Distribution Box detail and the
1,500 Gal. 2-Compartment Monolithic Septic Tank detail both shown on sheet 2 of 2,
indicating that they shall be watertight.
4. The current DEP soil evaluation forms are attached.
5. A conventional 20'-0" x 30'-0" leach bed was shown on Sheet 1 of 2 of the Sanitary
Disposal System Repair Plan. Supporting Conventional System Capacity Calculations
were also provided on Sheet 1 of 2. It is a little difficult to see because of all the line
work; I reviewed this issue with Isaac Rowe of Mill River Consulting and he informed me
that he is satisfied that a conventional leaching facility is shown.
6. A note has been added to the 9-Outlet (H-20) Distribution Box detail and the System
Profile, both shown on sheet 2 of 2, stating that "Watertight access riser shall be installed
to within 6" of finish grade if cover is greater than 9"".

7. The location of the percolation test has been added to Sheet 1 of 2 of the Sanitary
Disposal System Repair Plan.
8. Even though the existing potable water supply well is proposed to be converted to an
irrigation well only, we feel that the 100 foot radius from the well should still be shown
on the plan.
9. Even though the required setback from an irrigation well to a leach field is 25 feet, we
feel that we should still show the 100 foot radius from the well as it shows that the well
cannot be used as a potable water supply because the 100 foot setback encroaches into
the proposed leaching facility.
We trust that these responses satisfy your questions/concerns outlined in your review letter.
Today we met with Jennifer Hughes, Conservation Administrator, to review the wetlands on site.
Ms. Hughes made several changes to the wetland line which included connecting the isolated
wetlands. Please note the wetland series in question is still considered an isolated wetland.
Because of the change in the wetland line, the septic tank is now proposed 72 feet from the
wetlands, 75 feet is required per your local regulations, and the proposed teaching facility is 84
feet from the wetlands, where 100 feet is required. We have a little room to move the septic
tank further from the wetlands, however, setbacks are tight on this project so it would be helpful
to have a little room if we need it so that is why we are requesting relief from this section.
Based on the changes in the wetland line it is not possible to locate a leaching facility 100 feet
from the wetlands within the front of the property. There appears to be room to design a
leaching facility 100 feet from the wetlands in the rear of the property, however, it will most
likely be a large fill condition since it appears the rear yard is all fill, and we anticipate a high
water table in this location. The system would be located at the toe of a large hilt which could
pose some grading issues with runoff from the hill. A system in this location would require a
force main that would run under the existing driveway and travel approximately 250 feet to the
proposed leaching facility. Based on the existing topography the force main would not drain
empty between pumping cycles and therefore would need to be installed below frost or
insulated to prevent freezing. Since the proposed setbacks from the septic tank and teaching
facility exceed the minimum State required setback to wetlands, and the proposed septic tank
and leach field are further from the wetlands than what currently exist, the system, as proposed,
should have no impacts on the resource area. Also, the existing dwelling is located between the
septic components and the wetlands limiting the potential impacts even further. We feet that
the system, as designed, wilt not have any impacts on the resource areas and to require the
additional disturbance and costs associated with positioning the leaching facility 100 feet from
the wetlands at the rear of the property is not warranted and would result in a hardship for our
clients.
Ms, Michele Grant Page 3
April 16, 2015
At this time we respectfully request that the Board of Health issue two variances from Section 3,
Table 1 — Setback Distance Table of your local Board of Health regulations "Minimum
Requirements For the Design, Construction And Maintenance of Onsite Wastewater Treatment
and Disposal Systems" for a reduction in the required setbacks from a wetland resource area to
a septic tank and leach field as discussed above, The two variance requests have been added to
sheet 1 of 2 of the design plan, We shall notify all abutters by certified mail 10 days before the
Board of Health meeting, as required.
Please schedule us for your next Board of Health meeting on Thursday, April 30t�', so that we
may review this application with the Board,
If you should have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me,
Sincerely,

Attached are the soil testing results for the above referenced property. I allowed only one test to be conducted to avoid
digging through the existing system and gas line.This will likely need an I/A system due to the location of the well
({100').
Let me know if you have any questions.

Isaac noted this issue to me, but I didn't know that town water was nearby
What type of system are you proposing to design to provide equal protection.

Hi Susan,
We are doing a septic repair at the above referenced property; soil testing was done last week and we were only able to perform
one deep and pert because of the limited space out front and wetlands out back. Fortunately the soils are pretty good;
unfortunately there is no way to design a replacement system 100 feet from our own well. Our client just spent money fixing the
well pump before they realized the septic would need to be replaced. Town water does exist in the street however the water
service that was provided to this lot is on the opposite side from where the well is so it will be a costly project to install the water
service from the existing water main.
We are currently working on the design but I think we will be able to maintain a 50 foot setback from our own well which is
allowed as a Local Upgrade Approval (LUA) if approved by the BOH. Do you think your Board will entertain this LUA? We will be
submitting a LUA for the one test pit.
Thanks,
John M. Morin, P.E.

Hi Susan,
We have finalized the septic design for the above property; you may recall this is the property where the owners were
hoping to save their existing well so we were going back and forth between Conservation and BOH in an attempt to do
this. After we told them it was not going to happen they went and discussed the issue with both the BOH and the
Conservation offices and got the same answer.
Now that the system is designed we will need several Local Upgrade Approvals and a deed restriction. The existing
house is 4 bedrooms, the Assessors records show 4 bedrooms but the house has 11 rooms. Based on room count we
would need to design for 5 bedrooms; since this would be an increase in flow we would have to provide a reserve area
and we would not be allowed the Local Upgrade Approvals so we need the deed restriction limiting to 4 bedrooms. I
spoke with Michelle earlier in the week and she said the BOH needs to approve all deed restrictions. I asked if we had to
notify abutters and she told me to check your regulations and Title 5. Based on the Local Upgrade Approvals requested I
do not see that we have to notify abutters so the only questions would be the deed restriction. Title 5 is silent on this
issue and your local regulations only state that you have to notify abutters if you are requesting a variance; I don't see
the deed restriction as a variance so I don't believe we need to notify abutters.
Please give me a call to discuss (I left you a vm regarding this also).
Thanks,
John M. Morin, P.E.

Lisa/Michele,
Attached is the final construction report for the above referenced property. Everything looked good.
Also attached are a few photos of the waterline from the existing well into the house and new waterline from the street.
This plan required the well to be used for irrigation only. The well waterline has been disconnected from the internal
plumbing and the new waterline from the street has been installed. You may wish to review the proper irrigation
plumbing requirements with the plumbing inspector or verify if he has inspected this disconnection.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanksr..,...
