Aaaa. s, ra,se.y SITE CONDITIONS ❑ Contractor reports any changes to design plan ❑ Existing septic tank properly abandoned, if present ❑ Internal plumbing all to one building sewer ® Topography not appreciably altered Comments: 12/29/21 — Existing tank remains to be abandoned. Could not access basement to examine plumbing but it is a newer house and likely only has one building sewer pipe existing. D. Ottenheimer SEPTIC TANK ® Building sewer in continuous grade, on compacted firm base ® Cleanouts per plan ® Bottom of tank hole has 6" stone base ® Tank size and loading per plan ® Monolithic tank construction } ® If monolithic, water tightness of tank has been achieved by visual testing ® Inlet tee installed, centered under access port ® Outlet tee installed, centered under access port ® Effluent filter installed ❑ If effluent filter, riser to finished grade over filter ❑ Riser with cover to within 6" of finish grade installed over one access port ❑ Manhole and riser minimum inch diameter ® Pipe penetrations appear watertight using rubber boots / hydraulic cement (circle one) Comments: 12/20 — 6" stone noted across tank & pump chamber hole. Existing tank still hooked up until new ones arrive. 12/29/21 — Building sewer has bend in it so a cleanout to grade was installed. Pipe penetration into inlet side of septic tank is at a severe angle however it appears watertight and was not requested to be fixed. Effluent filter selected is not one proposed by designer. Manhole to finished grade over effluent filter to be installed. D. Ottenheimer PUMP CHAMBER (Delete if not present) ® Bottom of tank hole has 6" stone base ❑ Weep hole plugged ® 1000 gallon Pump Chamber installed ® H-10loading ® Monolithic tank construction ❑ Inlet tee installed, centered under access port ❑ Pump(s) installed on stable base ® Alarm float working ® Pump On/Off floats working ® Drain hole in pressure line ❑ _" cover at final grade installed over pump access port ® Water tightness of tank has been achieved by Visual testing ® Neoprene boots around inlet & outlet Comments: 12/20 — OK, 6" stone noted 12/29/21 — Pump selected is per plan. Riser to finished grade over pump to be installed CONTROL PANEL (Delete if not present) ❑ Alarm & Pump are on separate circuits ❑ Visual & audible alarm works as intended ® Location of control panel: Basement Comments: 12/29/21 — Could not access basement but was able to hear audible alarm, could not see if visual alarm but assumed to be present DISTRIBUTION-BOX ❑ Installed on stable stone base ® H-20 D-Box ® Inlet tee (if pumped or >0.08'/foot) ® Hydraulic cement around inlet & outlets ® Even distribution observed ® Schedule 40 PVC Pipe Comments: 12/29/21 —transition pipe from 2" to 4" installed for flow entering distribution box. D. Ottenheimer SOIL ABSORPTION SYSTEM (General) ® Bottom of SAS excavated down to specified soil layer, as provided on plan ® Size of SAS excavated as per plan ® Sand installed, if specified on plan ® Sand displays few fines when handled ® 40 Mil HDPE barrier installed, if specified on design plan ® Laterals installed and ends capped or connected to header (and vented if impervious material above) ❑ Retaining wall material, location and height if specified on plan Comments: 12/14/21 — 24' x 60' excavated, sand (one load) looks good. S. Casey 12/29/21 — Contractor appears to have built trenches 2.5.'-3.0' wide instead of 2.0' as indicated on design plan thus the spacing between them is reduced. Not a critical error which would trigger the removal and re-construction of the trenches but note worthy enough to be documented herein. D.

See septic tank detail Sheet 2 of 2. Michael Stephen Casey<scasey@northandoverma.gov> Wed, Jan 12, 2022 at 10:16 AM To: "nks, Thanks Scoyy"<mgoneill1@verizon.net> Hi Michael, Thank you for reaching out. Mill River noted that the filter observed during the final inspection at 37 Scott Circle was not a Zabel A1800 filter but it was a Polylok-brand effluent filter instead. Is this Polylok filter acceptable in place of the Zabel A1800 filter? If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
