Re: Application for improvement permit for Wastewater system for property described
on plat PLS-2648 prepared by Ernest B. Wood, Jr., July, 2000
Dear Mr. Hughes:
On August 3, 2001, the Person County Health Department, Environmental Health Division evaluated the
above-referenced property at the site designated on the plaUsite plan that accompanied your
improvement permit application. According to your application the site is to senre a three bedroom
residence with a design wastewater flow of 360 gallons per day. The evaluation was done in accord.ance
with the laws and rules governing wastewater systems in North Carolina General Statute 130A-333 and
related statutes and Title 15A, Subchapter 18A, of North Carolina Administrative Code, Rule .1900 and
related rules. �
Based on the criteria set out in Title 15A, Subchapter 18A; of the North Carolina Administrative Code,
Rules .1940 through .1948, the evaluation indicated that the site is UNSUITABLE for a ground absorption
sewage system. Therefore, your request for an improvement permit is DENIED. The site is unsuitable
based on the following:
1. Unsuitable soil characteristics (expansive clay minerology, unsuitable soil structure) (Rule.1941).
2. Soil wetness conditions indicated by chroma colorization (Rule .1942)
3. Available space (Rule.1945) . .
These severe soil or site limitations could cause premature system failure, leading to the discharge of
untreated sewage on the ground surface, in surface waters, directly lnto ground water or inside your
structure.
The site evaluation included consideration of possible site modifications, and modified, innovative or
alternative systems. However, the Health Department has determined that none of the above options will
overcome the severe conditions on this site. A possible option might be a system designed to dispose of
sewage to anothe� area of suitable soil or off-site to additional properry' . . �
For the reasons set out above, the properry is currently classified UNSUITABLE, and an improvement
permit shall not be issued for this site in accordance with Rule .1948(c).
However, the site classified as UNSUITABLE may be classified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE if
written documen#ation is provided that meets the requirements of Rule .1948(d). A copy of this rule is
enclosed. You may hire a consultant to assisst you if you wish to try to develop a plan under which your
site could be reclassified as PROVISIONALLY SUITABLE.
You have a right to an informal review of this decision. You may request an informal review by the soil
scientist or environmental health supervisor at the local health department. You may also request an
informal review by the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources regional soil specialist. A
request for an informal review must be made in writing to the local health department.
You also have a right to a formal appeal of this decision. To pursue a formal appeal, you must file a
petition from a contested case hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Center,
Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. To get a copy of a petition form, you may write the Office of Administrative
Hearings or call the office at (919) 733-0926. The petition for a contested case hearing must be filed in
accordance with the provision of North Carolina General Statutes 140A-24 and 150B-23 and all other
applicable provisions of Chapter 150B. N.C. General Statue 130A-335 (g) provides that your hearing
would be held in the county where your property is located.
Please note: If you wish to pursue a formal appeal, you must file the petition form with the Office of
Administrative Hearings WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE OF THIS LETTER. Meeting the 30 day
deadline is critical to your right to a formal appeal. Beginning a formal appeal within 30 days will not
interfere with any informal review that you might request. Do not wait for the outcome of any informal
review if you wish to file a formal appeal.
If you file a petition for a contested case hearing with the Office of Administrative Hearings, you are
required by law (N.C. General Statute 150B-23) to send a copy of your petition to the North Carolina
Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Send the copy to: Office of General Counsel, N.C.
Department of Environment and Natural Resources, 1601 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-
1601. Do NOT send the copy of the petition to your local health department. Sending a copy of your
petition to the local health department will NOT satisfy the legal requirement in N.C. General Statute
150B-23 that you send a copy to the Office of General Counsel, NCDENR.
You may call or write the Person County Environmental Health Department if you need any additional
information or assistance.
Sincerely,
