RE: Title V review for 223 Forest Street
Dear Sandra,
I find that the design plans adequately address Title V and local regulations.
Various local upgrade approvals and local variance requests are noted. In my
professional opinion the requests seem reasonable for the conditions of the lot.
(One comment is that this is an existing 3 bedroom dwelling,but the design calculations
as to size of leaching bed are based on a 4 bedroom dwelling. The review of this design
was treated as an upgrade of a failed system for a 3 bedroom house. if an additional
bedroom is added in the fixture(to make a total of 4 bedrooms) the system will have to
be brought to"new construction" standards. (One area where it does not meet new
construction standards is that there is no reserve.))
If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely
Carlton A. Brown,PEIPLS
