SE43-149 Bruce Fulton Lot 16, Tide Run Jehu Pond Ken: Reads Notice of Intent hearing notice -- to construct a single family dwelling at Lot 16, Tide Run, within 100 feet of Jehu Pond. Bruce: This is Tide Run. We have three flow diffusors 10 feet from the road and ?0 feet from the house. Ken: Where is there a water system? Bruce: This is all Righwood Water, From the mean high water, we have 63 feet to the deck. It is a 12 foot deck. It is a total of 75 feet from the edge of the house. It doesn't say how far it is from the septic system. It has to be a good 135 to 140 feet. It is a very high lot. We have 14 feet here and 16 feet there, Wayne: You are still going with the leaching field, though? Bruce: Bill has been updating all the DEQE stdff and he said that is what they like now. They are not going to go with the septic system any more. They are going with three flow diffusors instead. Charles: (Referring to Arlene's letter) What they are looking at is because of the rapid infiltration, they are looking for an increase in the filtering layers below the septic system. Bruce: With this type of system here, we gain about 4 or 5 feet of soil between the bottom of the system and the ground water. In fact, we didn 't even hit ground water. We went down 12 feet. This area right here between Lot 17 and all the way over as a matter of fact -- Lot 18 starts getting low and Lot 19 is very low -- but from Lot 17 over are the highest lots in the whole development. Charles: They are within the 'B". Bruce: There is a small section up in the "B". I think it goes from Lot 16 over to Lot 12 or over to Lot 11 -- somethin!> like; that. Lot 10 sits down in a little hollow, so I know Lot 10 isn't in the "B".
