At the time of the inspection EHD staff determined <br /> that your septic system may serve more than 20 people per day. Since ground water is a source <br /> of drinking water, subsurface waste disposal is regulated under the United States Safe Drinking <br /> Water Act. <br /> EHD has implemented a Local Agency Groundwater Protection/Underground Injection Control <br /> (UIC) Program in accordance with guidelines prepared by the United States Environmental <br /> Protection Agency(USEPA). The primary focus of the program is to protect drinking water by <br /> identification and evaluation of subsurface disposal of waste fluids that may lead to the <br /> degradation of drinking water supplies. <br /> By definition any septic system that serves more than 20 people per day is a shallow injection <br /> well, so your facility has been placed on the EHD list of UIC sites. If your septic system is used <br /> for the disposal of solely sanitary waste and serves fewer than 20 persons per day, please inform <br /> EHD of this in writing. In addition, please provide in writing the disposal method for your storm <br /> water(on site pond, ditches, dry wells). Following review of the information submitted, EHD will <br /> evaluate if your storm water disposal method meets the definition of an underground injection well <br /> and if modifications are necessary and/or if it should be inventoried as an underground injection <br /> well. Enclosed is an "Inventory of Injection Wells" form that is to be completed and submitted to <br /> USEPA in San Francisco (address on page 2 of form)if your facility has a septic or storm system <br /> that meets the definition of an underground injection well. Please submit a copy of the form to <br /> EHD if it is completed. <br /> The above requested information about your facility should be submitted to EHD by July 1, 2005. <br /> If you have any questions contact me at (209)468-3449. <br /> Donna Heran, REHS, Director <br /> Environmental Health Department <br /> Margaret Lagorio, Supervising REHS <br /> Unit IV <br /> Enc. <br />
