Star : On June 5 , 1992 , our firm and Mr. Savage of Unit Construction Company performed a site inspection in order to determine the cause of and solution to -the failure of the subsurface sewage disposal system on the subject lot . Using a backhoe , components of the system were excavated . The distribution box was found to be filled with sludge approximately 2 inches deep in the outlet lines . This could possibly have been caused by lack of septic tank maintenance ( i . e . , annual pumping of the septic tank ) and/or malfunction ( or lack of) of the septic tank outlet: tee . Similar sludge material was found upon excavation of the end of one of the leaching trenches . Ledge was encountered during the excavation of the end of the leaching trench approximately 1 foot below the bottom of the trench . However , ledge was riot encountered at the inlet end of the trenches . Our recommendations are as follows : 1 . The septic tank should be pumped out and the outlet tee should be then inspected and , if necessary , replaced or repaired . 2 . The leaching trenches should be reconstructed in place or in the reserve area so long as any contaminated materials , soil , stone , topsoil , or subsoil , etc , is removed within ten feet of the replacement trenches .

Sincerely, Sandra Starr Health Inspector SLS/cj p Enclosure Ms . Star Page 2 June 18 , 1992 3 . The leaching trenches should be constructed 1 approximately two feet higher in elevations then the existing trenches in order to provide additional soil depth above ledge in comparison to the existing situation . Review of the Certified Foundation Plan for this site , dated March 6 , 1985 , by S. L . Giles , R . L . S. , as obtained from the Town Board of Health files shows that the existing septic tank outlet is 2 . 66 feet higher than the existing distribution box inlet , therefore allowing for the trenches to be raised without having to disrupt the septic tank . 4 .
