UPDATE FAILED SEPTIC SYSTEMS – Holden Sanitation:

786 Princeton Street:  The defective sand has been removed, and the bottom scarified.  The Board still needs the sand certification.

450 Sterling Road:  Needs a Title 5 inspection every year for 5 years.  The old sand is still in place and appears to be functioning.

20 North Street:  The installer will be Cove Construction, with Chris Kaunth as the engineer on the project.  There is some concern regarding water run-off near the system.  J. Morin sent in the letters for 786 Princeton St. and 450 Sterling Rd., but has not sent in the Title 5 inspection for 20 North St. yet.

OTHER BUSINESS:

Mixter Road:  Jeffrey Larson, applicant, is requesting a perc test out of season for new construction on a 16 acre parcel.  This was taken under advisement at the July 23, 2007 meeting.  The Board agreed that this is site specific with extenuating circumstances.  M. Johnson motioned to approve the perc test out of season.  M. Waite seconded.  All in favor, approved.  The applicant will submit a perc test application and fee.

Waite motioned to approve a one (1) year only extension for lots 5, 6, and 7, not be to extended again, and original conditions apply.  M. Johnson seconded.  All in favor, approved.
