Dear Mr. DiVincenzo,

healthdept@townofnorthandover.com

It has come to the attention of the Health Department that the septic system installation of the property listed above
has not had the final Certificate of Compliance issued on it to date. The file is in need of your signature to be placed
on the Certificate of Installation, along with the designers. We would appreciate it if you would come to the Health
Department to complete your obligations as soon as possible.
In addition, the recent heavy rains have resulted in a previously unseen condition at the above site. This is in regards
to the grading towards the property known as 97 Sawmill. Health Department personnel conducted a site visit to
review the concerns. It appears that the change in the topography close to the lot line has disturbed the previous flow
of water towards the back of the property. There is a small mound of soil, likely placed during the installation,
which appears to be within five feet of the property line. It is located next to a drainage swale on the adjacent
property. This small rise in elevation is inhibiting the flow of water towards the back of the property. This office
would appreciate it if you could return to the site and remove just a few inches of soil, as the top of any slope, no
matter how small, must be five feet from the property line. For convenience, I would be happy to meet with you on
site to review the issue.
Please note that the exact lot line location has not been marked on the field. The Health Department is hesitant to
advise the owner of 97 Sawmill to do this work themselves, due to whether this area is on their property or not. It is
also noted that this will not fully remediate the water problem at 97 Sawmill, rather it will assist the homeowners. It
is clear that this is not a new water problem at 97 Sawmill, as according to the owner; there had been a previous
drainage pipe from their driveway to the rear of the property. It is also not the responsibility of the owners of 81
Sawmill to fully correct the problem. No homeowner can be made to take on a neighbor's water unless there is a
legal drainage easement in place.
In conclusion, the main recommendation of this office is that the owners of 97 Sawmill Road establish their lot line
and then install a drainage system on their own property to address the issue. Without installing a new pipe, the
water problem will likely continue in heavy rain conditions. Please understand that it is not the intention of this office
to hold you responsible for correcting this long-term problem, it is only requested that you help by removing soil that
you placed that appears that it should not be so close to the lot line. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
Sincerely/ublicHealth

Hi Susan,
Page I of 1
Please call Peter Mirandi, the septic designer of above address. (You probably already know this, but Peter is
also the Danvers Health Director). He has questions regarding the tank specifications, as construction is set to
begin shortly. See attached report for additional details. His number is: c: 978.836.9447.
I will leave the file for your perusal on your chair.
Let me know if any questions.
Thanks,
Pam
p.s. — also, Heidi was involved or copied in on alot of the septic plans that came through our office since last
spring, and may be able to give you some history on this plan as well if needed, as I believe that Peter and Sandy
had some heated confrontations about this particular design plan.

RE: Subsurface Sewage Disposal System Plan4� 81 Sawmill Road, p 104B, Lot 108,
North Andover, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Narayanan,
The North Andover Board of Health has completed review of the septic system design plans for
the above referenced property submitted on your behalf by Peter Mirandi dated June 12, 2003,
revised September 13, 2003 and received by this office on September 17, 2003.
The design has been approved for use in the construction of a replacement onsite septic system.
This approval is valid for three years from the date of this letter and during this time a licensed
septic system installer must obtain a permit and complete this work, and a Certificate of
Compliance must 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 which did not meet the acceptable criteria in the state regulations. The time period for
which this plan is valid may be reduced by the North Andover Board of Health in the event an
imminent health problem such as sewage backup into the dwelling is occurring.
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 (3 10 CMR 15.020(1)).
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 and/or imply compliance with any of the aforementioned
requirements.
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
might have.
Sincerely,
feidiffin,
Acting Health Director

while as Peter Mirandi and I were unable to reach each other by phone to answer a
question we had about the design plan. All set now.

Subject: 81 Sawmill Plan Review
This one appears to have extended beyond the 45 days allotted for review. I have
completed it anyhow since it was sent to me. I'd suggest sending it out as written and
wait to see if anyone squawks. There are some significant issues here that it is
probably worth sticking to requiring the revisions even if they bring up the 45 day issue.

Re: 81 Sawmill Road
Dear Mr. Mirandi:
The proposed septic system design plans for the above site dated June 9 and June 12, 2003 have
been reviewed and have been found to have technical deficiencies that must be address prior to
the plan approval. They are as follows:
1. The southwest property boundary and the associated abutter are missing. (3 10 CMR
15.220(4)(a) and NA 8.02j) This may be shown on a separate sheet as this
information is not integral to the design.
2. Ties to the house and property line from the tank and soil absorption system should
be depicted (NA 8.03).
3. Grading appears to be needed around the entire SAS to meet breakout (3 10 CMR
15.220 (4)(g) and 15.255). You may wish to consider use of an impermeable barrier
in compliance with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection
Policy BRP/DVVM/WPeP/G02-1.
4. Please clarify the location of the percolation test in the plan view (3 10 CMR 15.220
(4)(i)).
5. Please provide the percolation test elevation (NA 8.02n).
6. An application for Local Upgrade Approval must accompany a plan which requests
same (3 10 CMR 15.403).
7. Local Upgrade Approval request is for slab foundation setback to the SAS. The
standard is 10' for this item. Perhaps the setback request should be from a cellar
wall?
8. Please provide a statement regarding the presence or absence of regulatory wetlands
(NA 8.02s).
9. A Local Upgrade Approval or variance is necessary for percolation rate > 30 minutes
per inch (3 10 CMR 15.405).
l w M A ff
1 Il\
10. Since the original building sewer is proposed to be re -used, please provide a note to
indicate the designer and health inspector are to confirm compliance with regulatory
standards at the time of construction and that lack of compliance will require a
replacement building sewer. Standards to be met include pipe diameter, pipe
material, watertight joints, continuous grade, proper base, and proper pitch (3 10
CMR 15.222).
11. A manhole is required over the pump chamber to provide access for maintenance
(3 10 CMR 15.228).
12. An inlet tee is required for the distribution box due the pumped dosing (3 10 CMR
15.232).
13. Please clarify soil compaction underneath distribution box (3 10 CMR 15.221).
14. Please clarify pump controls (3 10 CMR 15.220 and NA 12.01), alarms, and alarm
electrical circuitry requirements (3 10 CMR 15.231).
15. Trenches shall be used wherever possible, please explain why they are not used in this
instance. (3 10 CMR 15.240 (6)).
Please explain or remove two items from the site plan: an elliptical shaped object shown on the
front yard, and a line with the words "breakout" adjacent.
While not a reason for disapproval, you may wish to consider increasing the dosing frequency to
at least 4 times daily rather than one time.
Please call the office if you have any questions.

Dear Brian,
WN OF NORTqANDOV.--!
PO FM OF HES;' TH
SEP
The purpose of this correspondence is to respond to your review of the septic system repair plan
for the above referenced dwelling. An attachment of your letter is attached for your convenient
referral. Also attached are three (3) copies of the revised Repair Plan and supporting documents
described below.
Firstly, let me briefly state that your letter represents a very thorough and fair review of the
Plan. Thank you for your courteous remarks. Every point has been carefully addressed,
hopefully, to your full satisfaction.
Next come the issues at hand:
1. Each point has been identified on the revised Plan by its corresponding number, in
superscript (e.g. #3)
2. The last point in your review — #15, requests an explanation for the proposed leaching
field in lieu of trenches. Please consider the following discussion:
Perhaps while addressing the first paragraph after the itemized list, the answer to
this inquiry will be revealed. The referenced paragraph requests an explanation for
the "elliptical shaped object shown on the front yard." The elliptical object in
question is clearly labeled "trees"; you have been on site and may recall the cluster
of stately trees in the front yard. Removal of this healthy vegetation is extremely
costly and unnecessary. The cost to property value is undeterminable; the cost of
removal would be several thousand dollars.
Title 5, section 15.240 (6) requires, "Absorption trenches shall be used whenever
possible When trenches cannot be used because of area limitations, other soil
absorptions configurations may be proposed for substitution." In order to attain the
required 1,760 sqft of SAS, we would require a minimum of 220 linear feet of
trenches. To properly space these trenches, the "trees" would need to be clear-cut!
In my opinion, this is not a reasonable approach to domestic wastewater treatment
for this property.
r /
Page 2
3. The aforementioned paragraph also requests an explanation for the "line with the words
`breakout"'. The line is meant to represent the effluent breakout we observed at the time
of field-testing. (Regular pumping by Stewart's Septic Services since spring, 2003 has
effectively managed this unsanitary condition.)
4. The next paragraph recommends, "increasing dosing frequency to at least 4 times daily".
I am surprised with this comment as it is in direct conflict with Title 5. Further, no data
(that I am aware of) supports this design. I would respectfully request that you
reconsider this approach. Naturally, I remain open-minded if you wish to discuss this
topic further.
5. Enclosed is Form 9 — A, Request for a Local Upgrade Approval. As you know, the two
(2) variances being sought require local Board of Health approval. Please accept this
request to be placed on the agenda of the next available Board of Health meeting, and
notify me of the time, date and location, as I am happy to attend and represent the Plan.
(Some communities, such as Andover, manage these issues administratively and do not
require the design sanitarian to be present.)
On behalf of the owner and residents of this dwelling, your attention in bringing this phase of the
project to closure is deeply appreciated. Please contact me immediately if you have any
questions or concerns regarding the submission of this revised Plan.
Environmentally yours,
Peter M. Mirandi, Registered Sanitarian

Regulation Reference: 310 CMR 15.211(1)4.
310 CMR 15.255
PURPOSE:
These guidelines supplement Title 5, 310 CMR 15.255, which addresses systems
constructed in fill. Specifically, this guidance contains design and installation criteria for
impervious barriers, and slope stabilization when either is required by 310 CMR 15.255 in
conjunction with a system constructed in fill. Additionally, this widance supplements 310
CyIR 15.211(1)[4], which requires slope stabilization for certain soil absorption systems
adjacent to naturally occurring downhill slopes.
APPLICABILITY:
This document is a wide for Massachusetts Registered Professional Engineers (PE)
and Massachusetts Registered Sanitarians (RS) who design True 5 systems using
impervious barriers, and for PE's that design impervious barriers using retaining walls, or
structural barriers such as concrete retaining walls, and for boards of health and DEP staff
who review applications for Title 5 systems and who observe and inspect the installation of
Title 5 systems.

Guidelines for the Design and Installation of Impervious Barriers
INTRODUCTION:
Title 5, 310 CMR 15.255, addresses the construction of systems in fill. An
impervious barrier is required for systems constructed in fill when the designer can not
provide the minimum 15 foot horizontal distance between the edge of the top of the two
inch layer of washed stone (peastone) cover over the soil absorption system, and the top
of the sideslope. For a system constructed in fill, 310 CMR 15.255 requires slope
stabilization, such as a concrete retaining wall, when the sideslopes to a soil absorption
system are steeper than 3:1 (horizontal: vertical). Section 310 CMR 15.211(1)[4] requires
slope stabilization when systems are located in an area adjacent to a naturally occurring
downhill slope steeper than 3:1. When a naturally occurring downhill slope adjacent to a
system is steeper than 3:1, Title 5 requires stabilization in accordance with accepted
engineering practice which may include installation of a concrete retaining wall designed
n in accordance with 310 CMR 15.255(2)(x) through (g),
TEXT:
Impervious Barriers:
Pursuant to 310 CMR 15.255(2), an impervious barrier is required for a system
constructed in fill when the designer can not provide a minimum distance of 15 feet
between the edge of soU absorption system and the top of the side slope. Impervious barriers
must also be incorporated into the design when a minimum 15 -foot horizontal distance
cannot be provided between the edge of the soil absorption system and an adjacent naturally
occurring downhill slope. (see Figure 1)

Guidelines for the Design and Installation of Impervious Barriers
Swales or grading shall be incorporated into the design to preye t ponding by
directing storm water away from the system The grading shall be designed so that the
stormwater is not diverted onto abutting properties in accordance with 310 CMR 15.255 (2).
Any impervious barrier may be designed by a Massachusetts Registered
Professional Engineer. When the system has a design flow of less than 2,000 gallons per
day, a Massachusetts Registered Sanitarian can design impervious barriers that do not
include a retaining wall that provides any structural support for the slope.
Impervious barriers shall have the following design characteristics:
1. A top elevation that is at least as high as the top of the two-inch laver of
peastone covering the pipes in the soil absorption system, or at least as high as
the top of the chambers when leaching chambers are used.
2. The bottom of the impervious barrier shall extend to a minimum depth of at
least one foot below the existing natural ground elevation.
J. There shall be at least a 10 -foot horizontal distance between the bottom of the
n impervious barrier and the edge of the adjacent finished side slope.
4. in remedial situations where there is less than four feet of vertical distance
L' between the bottom of the soil absorption system and ledge or other
impervious strata, (consistent with the requirements for the granting of a
variance specified in 310 CAR 15.415), the bottom of the ' impervious barrier
should be at least six inches above the impervious strata to avoid impounding
the treated eluent.
�L
Clay barriers shall be:
1. constructed of compacted clay (conforming to NRCS classifications for
clay, with a hydraulic conductivity no higher than 10' cm/sec);
2. at least two feet in width; and
F-1 3. covered with at least six inches of cover material (soil) and stabilized
L (e.g., vegetated) to prevent erosion of clay due to weather conditions.
F, Plastic membrane barriers shall be:
L 1. of sufficient tensile strength to withstand perforation, including
cracking, teasing and breaking;
at least 40 mils in thickness, and have significant durability and
L, resistance to the temperature and moisture conditions expected in the
subsurface environment; and
3. installed without holes or gaps and so that perforations do not develop
after installation.
r Additionally, as specified in 310 CMR 15.255(2):
V
Materials for impervious barriers shall:
1. have no weep holes;
2. have a waterproof surface on at least the upgradient side, consisting of a
durable waterproof lining or applied waterproof co •ng
3. be anchored or reinforced as necessary to maintain structural integrity; and
4. not allow seepage or deteriorate over time.
