NE, Aurora has been completed. Unfortunately, the stakeout <br />conflicts with the requirements of the Depamnent of Environmental Quality On-Site <br />Sewage Disposal Rules. A separation of fifty (50) feet is required between the <br />dralnfield and any downslope manmade excavation which is greater than 30 inches <br />in depth. The proposed house with a full basement is directly downslope of the septic <br />system stakeout. As a result, the septic system, as proposed, cannot be approved. <br /> <br />It appears that there is inadequate area on the lot to install a standard septic system <br />and meet the required separation distances fi:om the house as it is cun'ently proposed <br />with a full basement. It may be possible to install a sand filter system on the property <br />and meet the separation requirements. Sand filters require a smaller amount of <br />drainfield and it may be possible to lay out a system that is not directly upslope of <br />the house. The drainfleld sizing for a sand filter system requires 125 lineal feet of <br />drainfleld for the initial system and area for 125 lineal feet ofdrainfleld for the future <br />repair. If this amount of dminfield can be staked on the property to meet the required <br />setbacks, we will reconsider your application for a septic system construction permit. <br /> <br />If you have any questions, pleas call our office. I am normally available during the <br />morning hours between 8:00 and 9:30. <br /> <br />Registered Sanitarian <br /> <br />Donald Woodley <br />Building Official <br /> <br />copy: City of Aurora <br /> <br />Community Development Center · 285 Church Street N.E., Room 132 · Salem, Oregon 97301-3670 <br /> <br /> <br />
