As the volume of the <br />collected material in the tank increases, the effectiveness <br />of the septic tank decreases. This directly affects the <br />waste strength of the effluent that the sand filter re- <br />ceives. Inadequate maintenance of the septic tank can <br />lead to clogging of the sand filter and failure of the <br />septic tank. <br /> <br />Pursuant to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality <br />on-Site sewage Disposal Rules, septic tank pumping is <br />required every four (4) years. The purpose of this letter <br />is to advise you that the septic tank of your sand filter <br />system needs pumping four years from the installation <br />completion date and every four years thereafter. The work <br />must be performed by a licensed septic tank pumper. See <br />your telephone Yellow Pages for a listing of pumpers from <br />this area. A visual inspection of the pump (or dosing <br />siphon) and cleaning of the effluent screen is recommended. <br /> <br />Please remit a copy of the pumping receipt to our office. <br />If you would like an inspection/evaluation of your sand <br />filter system, please submit an application to our office <br />for an Annual Evaluation for an Alternative System along <br />with the appropriate fees. Please feel free to contact our <br />office_~ if you havre any questions pertaining to the opera- <br />tionI~a~and filter syat~m. <br />ROBERT FO~"JER~ REGTST~RED SANITARIAN <br />MARION COUNTY BUILDING INSPECTION <br /> <br />Senator Building 220 High Street NE Salem, Oregon 97301-36;'0 <br /> <br /> <br />
