DocuSign Envelope ID:81E05E8E-EED7-43D3-8B8A-08110E72140A <br /> Conclusions: <br /> In North Carolina, two primary options for septic system permitting exist. In the <br /> traditional option, the local county health department can evaluate and permit any site. A <br /> new version for the traditional permit is now allowed by NC Session Law 2018-114. In <br /> this version, a NC Licensed Soil Scientist can evaluate a lot and submit soil information <br /> on each lot to the Health Department in lieu of the Health Department evaluation. In the <br /> traditional permitting model, the county in the form of an Improvement Permit grants site <br /> approval. An Authorization to Construct a Wastewater System is issued once building <br /> floor plans are reviewed and the Improvement Permit is issued. The county issues an <br /> Operation Permit after the system has been installed to meet the specifications of the <br /> Authorization to Construct. Septic layouts and system design can be performed as <br /> needed. The totally private permitting option is the Engineer Option Permit(EOP). A <br /> NC Licensed Engineer, a NC Licensed Soil Scientist and a NC Registered Septic Installer <br /> can evaluate, design and install a septic system without Health Department involvement <br /> other than record keeping. <br /> The attached soil map and septic layout maps are based on soil boring,property iron and <br /> flag locations collected using an EOS Arrow 100 GPS and iCMTGIS Pro app and then <br /> overlain over the Orange County tax parcel layer, topography(contours), hydrology and <br /> aerial imagery layer in PCGIS X software. A one inch to 125'scale version of the maps <br /> will be provided. The map is scaled to print on I I"x 17" (Tabloid)paper in Landscape <br /> format. The GPS locations can be accurate to submeter but should not be considered as <br /> accurate as survey located points and property lines. Property corners where found were <br /> collected and are noted on the soils map. <br /> Site Recommendations: <br /> 1. Construct protective fencing around the soil area and septic layout to protect from <br /> grading, compaction, livestock and construction traffic. <br /> 2. Contact NC 811 prior to any digging <br /> This LSS Evaluation is being submitted pursuant to and meets the requirements of <br /> SL 2018-114 Section 11. (c). <br /> Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions. <br /> Alan Clapp <br /> NC Licensed Soil Scientist#1058 <br /> NC Registered Environmental Health Specialist#1118 <br /> NC Subsurface Wastewater Operator#1009092 <br /> Project# 320059 <br />
