1 <br /> ORANGE C O U N T Y <br /> BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br /> ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br /> Meeting Date: June 6, 1994 <br /> Action Agenda <br /> Item # 'rX_A <br /> SUBJECT: Monitoring and Maintenance Program for on-site alternative <br /> technology waste treatment systems <br /> DEPARTMENT: Health Department PUBLIC HEARING: Yes _X—No <br /> ATTACHMENT(S) : INFORMATION CONTACT: <br /> Health Director ext.. 2400 <br /> Chart <br /> TELEPHONE NUMBERS: <br /> Hillsborough - 732-8181 <br /> Durham - 688-7331 <br /> Mebane - 227-2031 <br /> Chapel Hill - 967-9251/968-4501 <br /> PURPOSE: To bring back before the BOCC the Monitoring and Maintenance <br /> Program, related inspection frequency options and a revised <br /> inspection fee schedule for review and approval <br /> BACKGROUND: At the 17 May 1994 public hearing on the Monitoring and <br /> Maintenance (MMA) Program, staff presented information on <br /> two frequency-of-inspection options which could be <br /> utilized to monitor the various types of on-site <br /> alternative technology wastewater treatment systems <br /> included in the program. The options presented (see the <br /> attached chart) differ significantly in terms of <br /> monitoring/maintenance inspection theory. The theory <br /> behind Option I is that, while some level of system <br /> inspection is necessary, there is insufficient cause to <br /> embark on a course of frequent - and expensive - inspection <br /> without solid evidence that the expense is justified. <br /> Specifically, Option I advocates providing inspections for <br /> DEB-regulated systems at frequencies which are mandated by <br /> state health regulations. This option also advocates that <br /> DEM-regulated systems be inspected at frequencies specified <br /> for DEB systems of similar treatment process complexity. <br /> However, Option I does provide for increased inspection <br /> frequencies at specific systems or types of systems where <br /> normal inspections, complaints of operating failures and <br /> nuisance conditions or operating records indicate a need to <br /> provide more frequent inspections. The theory behind <br /> Option II is that a) most or all systems will eventually <br /> fail to provide adequate waste treatment, due to <br /> preventable operator deficiencies or mechanical failures; <br />
