On May 29, 2025, representatives <br />from the Department conducted observations on Parcel 3503121120001 and verified the soil and site <br />conditions. Based on the findings submitted by designer Josh Putt, each proposed parcel appears to <br />have 10,000 ft2 of suitable soil for wastewater treatment. <br /> <br />It should be noted that the soil testing conducted for this lot was preliminary and only for the purpose of <br />determining suitability of this lot to support long -term sewage treatment. Section 9.5 of the Washington <br />County Development Code, Chapter Four, Individual Sewage Treatment System Regulations (Washington <br />County Ordinance #206) states: <br /> <br />Complete soil testing on each individual lot must be conducted prior to permit issuance <br />independent of any prior subdivision or lot approval testing. For permit issuance, a minimum of <br />four (4) soil observations encompassing the proposed sewage treatment ar ea are required. At <br />least one soil observation must be performed in the portion of the soil treatment area anticipated <br />to have the most limiting conditions. Larger areas may be required where conditions of use, soils, <br />topography, or vegetation require. <br /> <br />If you have any questions or comments, please contact me at 651 -430-6695. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br />Marlee Dietrich <br />Environmental Specialist
