RE: 314 Rea Street,North Andover septic system
To Whom It May Concern:
The construction of the septic system repair at 314 Rea Street,North Andover was installed
according to the approved design plan and should operate as intended, providing that regular
pumping of the septic tank and water conservation practices are maintained. A variance was
given for separation to ground water from the minimum four feet to three feet. The system was
installed 2.9 feet above groundwater which condition should not affect its operation, but an
additional variance was given for this separation distance. Consequently this system does not
conform to the letter with current Title 5 regulations, but as stated above, will function properly if
maintained.

Re: 314 Rea Street
Dear Bill:
This is to notify you that waivers have been granted to allow the installation of septic
leach area not less than 50 feet to a wetland and to vary the depth to ground water to 3
feet instead of 4 feet.
Please inform your client that with the second waiver there can be no additional rooms
added to the dwelling until it is tied-in to sewer. With the waiver to these variances, the
plans for the repair of the septic system at 314 Rea Street are approved.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Board of Health Office at
978-688-9540.
Sincerely,
Sandra Starr, R.S., C.H.O.
