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 fail'n o protect public health,safety or the environment.
1. System '11 pass unless Board of Health determines in accordance with 310 15.303(1)(b)that the
system is n functioning in a manner which will protect public health,s ety and the environment:
— Cesspool or ivy is within 50 feet of a surface water
_ Cesspool or pri is within 50 feet of a bordering vegetated we d or a salt marsh
2. System.will fail unless the Board of He th(and blic Water Supplier,.if any)determines that the
system is functioning in a manner that pro tec th ublic health,safety and environment:
The system has a septic tank and soil.a orp ' system(SAS)and the SAS is within 100 feet of a
surface water supply or tributary to a s ce water s ply.
The system has a septic tank SAS and the SAS is 'thin a Zone 1 of a public water supply.
The system has a septic and SAS and the SAS is with' 0 feet of a private water supply well.
The system has a tic tank and SAS and the SAS is less than 1 feet but 50 feet or more from a
private water supply ell**.Method used to determine distance
**This system ses if the well water analysis,performed at a DEP certified la ratory,for coliform
bacteria an olatile organic compounds indicates that the well is free from poll ut! from that facility and
the pres ce of ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen is equal to or less than 5 ppm, ovided that no other
fail criteria are triggered A copy of the analysis must be attached to this form.

D. System Failure Criteria applicable to all systems:
You must indicate`yes"or`ono"to each of the following for all inspections:
Yes No
+� Backup of sewage into facility or system component due to 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 0.
_✓ Static liquid level in the distribution box above outlet invert due to an overloaded or clogged SAS or
cesspool
V' Liquid depth in cesspool is less than 6"below invert or available volume is less than 1/2 day flow
V' Required pumping more than 4 times in the last year NOT due to clogged or obstructed pipe(s).Number
of times pumped
v' Any portion of the SAS,cesspool or privy is below high ground water elevation.
V' Any portion of 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 1 of a public wc11.
Lt/ Any portion of a cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of a private water'supply well.
_ y' 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. [This system passes if the well water analysis,
performed at a DEP certified laboratory,for coliform bacteria>and volatile organic compounds
indicates that the well is free from pollution from that facility and the'presence of ammonia
nit togen:and nitrate.nitrogen is equal.to or less than 5 ppm,-provided that;no other failure criteria
are-triggered.A copy of the analysis must be attached to this form.]
N D (Yes/No)_The system fails.I have determined that one or more of the above failure criteria exist as
described in 310 CMR 15.303,therefore the system fails.The system owner should contact the Board of
Health to determine what will be necessary to correct the failure.
E. Large Systems:
To be considered a large system the system must serve a facility with a design flow of 10,000 gpd to 15,000
You indicate either`yes"or`no"to each of the following:
(The followm teria apply to large systems in addition to the criteria a
yes no
_ the system is within 400 feet o ce dr' ter supply
_ — the system is within 200 feet of a tri to a s drinking water supply
_ — the system is located in ogen sensitive area(Interim Wellh tection Area—IWPA)or a mapped
Zone II of a public ter supply well
If you have an "yes"to any question in Section E the system is considered a significant threat, wered
"yes",in S a D above the large system has failed.The.owner or operator of';any large system considered a
sigrYifi t threat under Section E or failed under Section D shall upgrade the system in accordance with 310 CUR
