MINUTES August 20, 1995 7 BOARD OF HEALTH <br /> APPOINTMENT; Peter Durmer- 48 & #12 Sextant Circle <br /> Mr, Peter Dunner, lot owner and Mr. Wesley Lohr from Wes Construction was in <br /> attention for this scheduled appointment. <br /> Mr. McQuaid relayed, "We approved this septic plan on June 14, 1995." "It has a <br /> new Title V system proposed and there are no abutters on private wells." "There is one <br /> abutter across from Sextant Circle, #7, whose well is more than 150' away from the <br /> leaching facility." "Mr. Durmer called because his original well appears to be less then <br /> 100' from the proposed leaching facility however, Mr. Durmer hooked into town water <br /> about one year ago." "His feeling is that he may at some future time want to reconnect his <br /> private well as his source of drinking water which will then be less then the required <br /> minimum distance of 100' away." "I explained to him that his well is now considered an <br /> irrigation well and that in fact, he couldn't hook back-up to his old well and disconnect <br /> from town water because of this septic system being approved as staked on site." "I <br /> would further like to point out that according to the new Title V, the minimum distance <br /> from an irrigation well to a septic tank is 10' and from an irrigation well to a Soil <br /> absorption system is 25'." "He definitely has the 25' therefore, the issue of his irrigation <br /> well prohibiting the installation of this leaching facility, in my opinion, is mute however, <br /> since I could not convince the person of that suggested that he come before the Board." <br /> Mr. Durmer stated, "It is going to very difficult to convince you gentlemen that I <br /> don't have an irrigation well." <br /> Mr. Cram questioned, "You hooked up to town water?" <br /> Mr. Durmer replied, "That's correct." "I have never left my well as drinking <br /> water." "I continue to use my well for drinking water and making cofJ'ee." <br /> Mr. Cram questioned, "You have two separate feeds coming into the house which <br /> is required by the Water District, it is not co-mingled?"' <br /> Mr. Durmer responded, "That's correct." <br /> Mr. Cram questioned, "Do you have two faucets in your kitchen?" <br /> Mr. Durmer responded, "No sir, I tap the well from down at the well head." "I <br /> bring my water upstairs just as if I buy it at the supermarket." "I've been drinking; water <br /> out of the well for 16 years and been a resident of the town for about 21 years." "I <br />
