Susan Sawyer/Jennifer Hughes Frown: Philip Christiansen CC: oat : May 23, 2013 R : 858 Johnson St changed the plan slightly so that the work would be farther from the wetlands. I changed to the low profile chambers which are only 8 inches high. This change allowed installation of the chambers without having to change the surface topography for breakout and enables the chambers to be installed in the parent soil without excavation of the top and subsoil 5 feet around the system. Jennifer said that wetland flag 1 was missing so I had Leah Basbane go back out. She established a new flag 1 and also a flag 0.The plan shows those flags. Additionally Leah did two soil probes in the brush pile and found the soil to be upland soil RECEIVED HEM (a ,u°� I E T r • North Andover Health Department Community Development Division May 24, 2013 Phillip Christiansen, P.E. Christiansen and Sergi, Inc. 160 Summer Street Haverhill, MA 01830 Re: Subsurface Sewage Disposal System Plan for 858 Johnson Street(Map 107A,Lot45) Dear Mr. Christiansen, The proposed wastewater system design plan for the above site dated April 25, 2013 and received on May 23, 2013 has been reviewed. Unfortunately, the plan cannot be approved until the following items are corrected. The specific section in Title 5: 310 CMR 15.000, or North Andover regulation that is not met by this design follows each item. 1. Please reference the Lake Cochichewick watershed in the notes on sheet 1 (NA 3.2). 2. Please demonstrate that a conventional system in compliance with 310 CMR 15.000 can be built on the site in order to use the Infiltrator Chamber system according to Section 1(3) of the DEP General Use approval letter. An outline and brief description of a conventional system on the site plan is sufficient. 3. The design plan references two different Infiltrator Chamber models (High Capacity and Standard Low Profile). It appears the design is based on the Standard Low Profile model. Please modify the design accordingly to correct the discrepancy. 4. Please indicate if the existing garage adjacent to the leaching facility has a slab foundation. If so, it must be 10 feet away from the proposed leaching facility. 5. It appears the existing dwelling is proposed to be removed and a new dwelling constructed. However, the design plan indicates the existing dwelling to be razed. Please clarify this note.

The leaching detail on sheet 1, indicates a trench length of but the design calculations indicate a trench length of 48'. The detail also indicates 11 bers per row but the design calculations indicate 12 chambers per row. 7. On the profile view on sheet 1, the pipe from the D-box should be connected to the inlet of the chamber. Please feel free to contact the office with any questions you may have. We look forward to working with you to obtain a wastewater treatment and dispersal system which will be in compliance with all regulations and assure protection of public health and the environment of North Andover.
