Mr. Mason replied that the top of it would be three feet. Mr. Harrington <br /> had spoken to him about moving the mound closer to the street also. <br /> There were some past test holes that were on record. He didn't include <br /> them in his plans. However, they weren't favorable. Also, the area is all <br /> wooded and the homeowners wanted to keep the privacy from the road. <br /> Mr. Ball noted that from the road you wouldn't see the mound. <br /> Mr. Mason confirmed that that was a correct observation. <br /> Mr. Doherty continued that you wouldn't need a mound if you went up <br /> there... <br /> Ms. Warden interjected that Mr. Harrington felt that the area where it <br /> sloped up more so towards the road would be a more feasible location. <br /> She continued by stating that the BOH members should have copy of Mr. <br /> Harrington's recommendations. <br /> Mr. Mason confirmed that he understood Mr. Harrington's <br /> recommendations. But, his only concern continues to be the test hole <br /> results that are on file. That is why he purposely did it in the same area <br /> as the original system. That is probably where they found the best soil. <br /> Mr. Doherty stated that he was on a "new kick" that whenever somebody <br /> asks for a variance. He asks for a denitrification system. <br /> Ms. Warden continued by stating that she didn't know how the original <br /> system ever got approved. She has never seen anything so pitiful in her <br /> life. There was groundwater coming in at some ridiculous level, 39". <br /> Ground water was encountered at 130". There was standing water. It <br /> was weeping at one of the other holes at 72". It was just pouring down <br /> off the hill. The whole system was just sitting in groundwater. The clean <br /> out pipe located at the front step of the house. What a mess. <br /> Mr. Ball asked if this was a sales transaction, too. <br /> Mr. Mason confirmed that that was correct. He stated that that was what <br /> caught the existing condition. <br /> Mr. Santos asked what the footage would be for separation. <br /> Mr. Mason replied that he would need five feet and the mound would only <br /> be three feet about the natural break. <br /> Ms. Warden stated that there is no alternative but a mounded system on <br /> 10 <br />
