The Denuit residence is the <br /> only residence located on the subject site. <br /> On July 23, 1990, a representative of our firm <br /> visited 6 residences located near the site. The <br /> purpose of our visits was to obtain information on <br /> septic system use and to inquire about any problems <br /> known to exist with this method of sewage disposal . <br /> Only 1 ( location 2 on Plate I ) of the 6 residences <br /> visited reported having problems with their septic <br /> system. The ages of the septic systems were <br /> reported to be from 1 to 10 years old. No water <br /> quality problems outside of "hard" water were <br /> reported from residences with domestic wells . <br /> ITEM C-2• <br /> "Suitability of soil for development utilizing septic systems . " <br /> On July 18, 1990, representatives of our firm drilled <br /> and set-up 1 3-foot deep percolation test hole at <br /> each of the 3 parcels . The test holes were drilled <br /> with a truck-mounted drill rig using 6-inch diameter <br /> continuous-flight augers . Perforated PVC pipe was <br /> inserted the entire length of the test holes to <br /> prevent disturbance when adding water. The test <br /> holes were then filled with relatively clean water <br /> and left to soak overnight. <br /> 2 <br />
