Re: Septic System Design Plan for 50 Famum Street
(Map 107.A Parcel 087)
Dear Mr. LaGrasse:
It is our opinion that the covered porch does not have a cellar or crawl space and is not a slab
foundation and therefore does not need to meet the setbacks set forth in 310 CMR 15.211. The raised
covered porch does rest on CMU blocks around a portion of the perimeter, however the area below the
porch is not completely enclosed. The building sewer runs underground beneath the covered porch. As
such, the offsets to the septic tank and leach field should be from the foundation wall where the building
sewer exists the actual foundation as shown on the approved plan.
Very truly yours,

Thanks the plan is sufficient but we need you to please submit an explanation of the structure located 5.5'from the septic
tank. The design plan depicts this as a covered porch but the pictures of the tank excavation submitted by the installer
clearly show this as a cinder block foundation with a crawl space or more which includes a window beneath the covered
porch. Please submit an originally signed and stamped letter stating that this setback distance of 5.5' meets Title 5
criteria without a variance and we will issue the COC.

Brian, Michele, Toni -
Attached please find our initial disapproval letter for the septic system design at 50 Farnum Street.
You will note that the date of the letter is in red and would need to be adjusted for when you send this out, plus I did not
have handy the date of their submission so would kindly ask you to fill that item in (also shown in red) as well.
Any questions, please do let me know.
Best,
Dan
