" 70 Beechwood Road Mr. Evans relayed, "A septic system is being installed now in which the excavator ran into the leaching pit from the abutting lot. " "The abutters septic system was a repair which was put back in the same spot that it was originally in. " Mr. McQuaid commented, "We are almost sure the pit be- longs to the house at 71 Forest Drive. " "When the installer pulled the repair permit for this it states on the Title V application - remove existing pit, clean out all con- taminants, lower pit 5' deeper and add 3' of stone. " "It ap- pears it originally was not on the correct property. " "We intend to uncover the man hole to this pit to learn whether it is indeed the active pit to the dwelling at 71 Forest Drive. " Mr. ❑oherty relayed, "If the pit was originally in- stalled on the wrong lot and all the installer was doing was a repair and under failed emergency conditions we don't re- quire engineered plans, in my opinion, it is reasonable and safe to assume that the pit Wpuld have been reinstalled in the exact location.
