Date of Inspection:
B) SYSTEM CONDITIONALLY PASSES (continued)
Sewage backup or breakout or high static water level observed in the distribution box is due to broken or obstructed
pipe(s) or due to a broken, settled or uneven distribution box. The system will pass inspection if(with approval of the
Board of Health). Describe observations:
broken pipe(s)are replaced
obstruction is removed
distribution box is levelled or replaced
_ The system required pumping more than four times a year due to broken or obstructed pipe(s). The system will pass
inspection if(with approval of the Board of Health):
broken pipe(s) are replaced
obstruction'is removed
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 the
public health, safety and the environment.
1) SYSTEM WILL PASS UNLESS BOARD OF HEALTH DETERMINES THAT THE SYSTEM IS NOT FUNCTIONING IN A MANNER
WHICH WILL PROTECT THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND 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 wetland or a salt marsh.
2) SYSTEM WILL FAIL UNLESS THE BOARD-OF HEALTH (AND PUBLIC WATER SUPPLIER, IF APPROPRIATE) DETERMINES THAT
THE SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONING IN A MANNER THAT PROTECTS THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY AND THE
ENVIRONMENT:
The system has a septic tank and soil absorption system (SAS)and the SAS is within 100 feet to a surface water supply or
tributary to a surface water supply.
The system has a septic tank and soil absorption system and the SAS is within a Zone I of a public water supply well.
The system has a septic tank and soil absorption system and the SAS is within 50 feet of a private water supply well..
The system has a septic tank and soil absorption system and the SAS is less than 100 feet but 50 feet or more from a
private water supply well, unless a well water analysis 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. Method used to determine distance (approximation.not valid).

D) SYSTEM FAILS:
You must indicate either "Yes" or"No" as to each of the following:
I have determined that the system violates one or more of the following failure criteria as defined in 310 CMR 15.303. The basis
for this determination is identified below. The Board of Health should be contacted to determine what will be necessary to correct
the failure.
Yes No
Backup of sewage into facility or system component due to an overloaded or clogged SAS or cesspool.
Discharge or ponding of effluent to the surface of the ground or surface waters due to an overloaded or clogged SAS or
cesspool.
Static liquid level in the distribution box above outlet invert due to an overloaded or clogged SAS or cesspool.
Liquid depth in cesspool is less than 6" below invert or available volume is less than 1/2 day flow.
Required pumping more than 4 times In the last year NOT due to clogged or obstructed pipe(s).
Number of times pumped_.
Any portion of the Soil Absorption System, cesspool or privy is below the high groundwater elevation.
Any-portion of a cesspool or privy is within 100 feet of a surface water supply or tributary to a surface water supply.
Any portion of a cesspool or privy is within a Zone I of a public well.
Any portion of a cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of a private water supply well.
Any portion of a cesspool or privy is less than 100 feet but greater than 50 feet from a private water supply well with no
acceptable water quality analysis. If the well has been analyzed to be acceptable, attach copy of well water analysis for
cohiorm bacteria, volatile organic compounds, ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen.
E) LARGE SYSTEM FAILS:
You must indicate either "Yes" or"No" as to each of the following:
The following criteria apply to large systems in addition to the criteria above:
The system serves a facility with a design flow of 10,000 gpd or greater (Large System) and the system is a significant threat to
public health and safety and the environment because one or more of the following conditions exist:
Yes No
the system is within 400 feet of a surface drinking water supply
the system is within 200 feet of a tributary to a surface drinking water supply
the system is located in a nitrogen sensitive area (Interim Wellhead Protection Area-IWPA)or a mapped Zone 11 of a
public water supply well)
The owner or operator of any such system shall bring the system and facility into full compliance with the groundwater treatment program
requirements of 314 CMR 5.00 and 6.00. Please consult the local regional office of the Department for further information.

Check if the following have been done: You must indicate either "Yes" or"No"as to each of the following:
Yes No
Pumping information was provided by the owner, occupant, or Board of Health.
None of the system components have been pumped for at least two weeks and the system has been receiving normal
flow rates during that period. Large volumes of water have not been introduced into the system recently or
�l as part of this inspection.
As built plans have been obtained and examined. Note if they are not available with N/A.
The facility or dwelling was inspected for signs of sewage back-up.
The system does not receive non-sanitary or industrial waste flow.
The site was inspected for signs of breakout.
Ll All system components, excluding the Soil Absorption System, have been located on the site.
The septic tank manholes were uncovered, opened, and the interior of the septic tank was inspected for condition of
baffles or tees, material of construction, dimensions, depth of liquid,depth of sludge,depth of scum.
The.size and location of the Soil Absorption System on the site has been determined based on:
The facility owner (and occupants, if different from owner) were provided with information on the proper maintenance of
Sub-Surface Disposal System.
