Re: Subsurface Sewage Disposal System Plan for 49 Windsor Lane,Map 106D,Lot 65
Dear Mr. &Mrs. Garron:
The proposed wastewater system design plan for the above site dated May 8, 2014 with a final
revision date June 16, 2014 received on June 17, 2014 has been approved.
The design has been approved for use in the construction of a replacement onsite septic system
for a 4-bedroom (max 9-room) home. This plan is generally good for 3-years from the date of
approval however, as this is for a repair system, this is reduced to 2- years.
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. 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 also 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

requirements.
Please feel free to contact the office with any questions you may have. We look forward to
working with you to obtain a wastewater treatment and dispersal system which will be in
compliance with all regulations and assure protection of public health and the environment of
North Andover.

Hi, I hadn't realized you had Norse visit, but yes, I believe the 130' estimate to be fairly accurate. I don't think you need
to revise the plan, but if you can send Susan an e-mail and just ask her to note it on the plan, that should be fine.
Thank you,

In response to the Board of Health's requirement that wetlands within 150 feet be shown on the plan,
I had Norse Environmental do a site visit and give me a verbal confirmation that no wetlands existed

within 150 feet. Subsequently I revised my plan stating no wetlands existed within 150 feet and I re-
submitted the plan to the BOH already.
I
In light of the fact that you also did a site visit and that your assessment is approximately 130 feet,
would you like me to revise the plan stating 130 feet or perhaps Susan would allow me an e-mail
authorizing an edit to 130 feet? t

Please advise.
Thank You,
Bill

Hi Bill, For 49 Windsor Lane the wetlands are approximately 130 feet from the corner proposed system. We are not
confident that access/delineation permission would be granted by the owner of the land where the wetland is and
because it is far enough from the system for conservation regulation purposes that instead of requesting that you seek
permission we are comfortable with you adding a notation to the plan stating that wetlands are estimated to be
approximately 130'from the system. Instead of re-printing the plan,Susan has said that you can send her an e-mail
requesting her to make the edit on the plan on your behalf.

Dear Mr.Nemchenok:
The proposed wastewater system design plan for the above site dated May 8,2014 and received
on May 15, 2014 has been reviewed. Unfortunately, the plan cannot be approved until the
following items are corrected. The specific section in Title 5: 310 CMR 15.000, or North
Andover regulation that is not met by this design follows each item.
l. On sheet 1 of 2,the septic tank appears to be potentially less than 5 feet to the existing
` deck footings. Please depict the location of the deck footings or request a variance from
Please sZletlands ll wetlands within 150 feet of the proposed soil absorption system (NA
3.2). If existing within 150 feet of the proposed soil absorption system then
p �lea e4iidicate this in a note on the design plan.
1-4 A riser to within 6 inches of finish grade is required above the distribution box if greater
than 9 inches below grade. Magnetic tape cannot be used as an alternative to providing a
riser. Please modify the note in the profile on sheet 2. If a riser is proposed above the
distribution box then please clearly indicate this requirement on the design plan.
V 4. ,.,Please specify all system components shall be marked magnetic marking tape (3 10 CMR
15.221(12)).
5. It appears that the Bw layer is proposed to remain below the soil absorption system.
Please clearly indicate this on the design plan to assist the installer.
