"November 18,.1985
W. B. Owens, Administrator
Isle of Wight County
Isle of Wight, Virginia 23397
Dear Mr. Owens:
Enclosed is a revised septic tank permit to reflect the change
of adding a pump system to the septic tank system serving the
Windsor Rescue Squad. The reason for adding the pump system
is that the sewer line was stubbed from the building some 24"
under the top of the ground and the drainfield has to be in-
stalled at a 24" depth due to a seasonal water table.
There is no way possible to have the effluent flow by gravity
since the inlet to distribution box is some 12 - 14" higher
than the outlet from the existing septic tank. A warning on
the original septic tank permit was added to reflect this
possible condition.
If you have any further questions please advise this office.
Sincerely,
s/J. A. Nourse,
Sanitarin
/ch"
