Michele definitely did this while Pam was away that is why you haven't seen it yet,.
Jim was asked to have a truck load of sand ready for inspection and he gave her some attitude. He called around
10-11 and Michele went out In the afternoon. He Couldn't even see it as good service. Says that every town
inspects the same day when they are called. I guess he is peterbed about paying the extra 50 for a reinsp, or
maybe it ws because we made him dig up the D-box at the last site. As far as we are concerned it is all business
with hiim.
Please note that on the plan( if Jim shows it to you)the added trench is hard to see as it wasn't connected. It was
changed after the last BOH meeting.
Thanks
Susan

RE: Septic Svstem Design, 94 Boxford Street, North Andover, 104 D, Lot 59
Dear Mr. & Mrs. Gohel:
The North Andover Board of Health has completed the review of the septic system design plan
for the above referenced property, submitted on your behalf by New England Engineering
Services, Inc. dated June 30, 2005, last revision date of August 1, 2005.
The design has been approved for use in the construction of an upgrade onsite septic system for a
four(4) bedroom, total nine-room home. This approval is generally valid for three years from
the date of the approval and during this time a licensed septic system installer must obtain a
permit and complete this work, and a Certificate of Compliance be endorsed by the installer,
designer and the Town of North Andover. The time period for which this plan is valid is reduced
to two years from the date of a septic system inspection that did not meet the acceptable criteria
in the state regulations. In the event an imminent health problem such as sewage backup into the
dwelling is occurring, the North Andover Board of Health may reduce the time period for which
this plan is valid
This approval is subject to the following conditions:
1. If site conditions are found in the field to be different from those indicated on the design plan
and/or soil evaluation, the originally issued Disposal System Construction Permit is void,
installation shall stop, and the applicant shall reapply for a new Disposal Systems
Construction Permit.
2. It is the responsibility of the applicant and/or the applicant's septic system designer, septic
system installer or other representative to ensure that all other state and municipal
requirements are met. These may include review by the Conservation Commission, Zoning
Board, Planning Board, Building Inspector, Plumbing Inspector and/or Electrical Inspector.
The issuance of a Disposal System Construction Permit shall not construe or imply
compliance with any of the aforementioned requirement
3. The plan does not call for the installation of a septic tank effluent filter but one is
recommended. Please be advised that only certain brands of filters are permitted for use in
Massachusetts and ear_ is required to follow certain approval C. _ aria. Your designer or
installer should work with you to assure a licensed brand is selected for use if you choose to
install one.
Your effort to provide a properly functioning septic system for your dwelling is greatly
appreciated. The Health Department may be reached at 978-688-9540 with any questions you
may have.

Dear Mr. Osgood,
The proposed septic system design plans for the above site dated June 30,2005 and received on July 1,2005 has
been reviewed. Unfortunately,the plans cannot be approved as submitted. The following items are in need of
attention prior to approval,with the section of Title 5(3 10 CMR 15.000)noted:
1. The note on abandonment of existing septic tank should be more specific on the procedure. As stated
in 310 CMR 15.345(3)(c): "The tank shall be excavated and removed from the site,or the bottom of
the tank ruptured after being pumped of its content so as to prevent retainage of water and the tank be
completely filled with clean sand."
2. The maximum depth of fill over the distribution box(36")should be specified on the plan.
3. The design includes a Local Upgrade Approval request to reduce the separation from the bottom of the
soil absorption system to the estimated seasonal high ground water from the required 4' to 3'. Several
sections of Title 5 do not allow this request to be granted including 310 CMR 15.401 and 404(1)which
indicate that whenever feasible a design should maintain full compliance with the standards in the
regulations. While the concern stated in the Local Upgrade Approval application regarding site
conditions limiting the location of upgraded system has legitimacy, it cannot displace the regulatory
requirement to maintain full compliance with the code whenever feasible.
4. This review has determined that the home is a four(4)-bedroom system,and the septic plan must be
designed accordingly.
Please feel free to contact the office with any questions you may have. We look forward to working with you to
obtain a replacement septic system which will be in compliance with all regulations and assure protection of public
health and the environment of North Andover.

Infiltrator Systems Inc. (ISI) has been working to clarify some of the installation
details with regard to mounds in fill in accordance with the Massachusetts Title 5. The
MA regulations,Title 5, require that the 15 foot breakout elevation to grade be measured
from the top edge of the SAS. For the Infiltrator mound system,the Massachusetts
Department of Environmental Protection agrees that the top edge of the SAS would be
the bottom outside edge of the chamber unit as shown in the attached drawing.
Additionally, since only bottom area is credited in all bed systems,the fill around the
upper portion of the chamber can be either naturally occurring pervious material or Title
5 fill. See the enclosed drawing for all details on the mound system.
The aforementioned drawing should be considered an addendum to ISI's Massachusetts
Design and Installation Manual dated May 2003. If you have any questions, please
contact your local Infiltrator Systems representative.
We thank you for your partnership with our company and look forward to working with
you in the future with your onsite wastewater treatment needs.
Regards,
