<br /> FB: "OK, l have here a,Metter and a mote from Barnstable County
<br /> Health Department, July 6th 18 4.
<br /> On July 6. 1984, 1 received a request from Mr. Thomas O'Neill to inspect
<br /> his property at 8:25 Heath Way in Mashpee. The purpose of the inspection
<br /> was to ver i�' r that sewage was not present or being discharged on top of
<br /> the ground on his lot. This letter is to inform you that at this time
<br /> sewage was not on top of the ground, nor was there Ind I ation of recent
<br /> overflow. I did, however, note that the leaching pit was ne r ly full-'
<br /> .and advised the o er to have the system pumped since an overflow seemed.
<br /> imminent*
<br /> Due to the entire sequence of events regarding the property and the
<br /> apparent contentions regarding repairs ordered by the Mashpee Board
<br /> of Health, 1 advised the owner to petition the Board for a hearing on
<br /> these matters, since any misunderstanding can best be clarif ed by
<br /> them. In the interim prior to repair, I advised the owner to pump
<br /> the system at hhe required frequency which will avoid an overflow.
<br /> If you have any questions regarding this matter,, pleasd do not
<br /> hesitate to ask,
