Subject: Waiver Request for Lot 2 Straley Subdivision
Waiver Request Number WR87-069
Dear Mr. Corwin:
Your request for waiver for the above mentioned parcel has been
denied at this time. It is my belief that a waiver is not
required. The crib on Lot 3, off the west side of the house,
has been abandoned and two 1,000 gallon holding tanks serve
this dwelling according to our files. A well could be placed
on the subject lot closer to these holding tanks and still meet
the 100 foot setback from the standpipe on Lot 9.
On October 14, 1987 we received an application for a permit to
drill a well on the subject lot. Two concerns need to be
addressed before a permit may be issued. They are as follows:
The crib on Lot 3 needs to be inspected to verify that
it is no longer part of the household plumbing. Proper
abandonment must be verified.
There is no record in our files of a septic system on
the subject lot. An as-built of the system showing all
dimensions along with a soils log with water monitoring
must be supplied.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me at 343-4744.
Sincerely,
Daniel J. Roth

SUBJECT: LOT 2, STRALEY SUBDIVISION
Dear Mr. Bowles:
We have been asked to prepare a plot plan for a well permit on
the subject property. After as-builting the area and drawing
the plot plan, we have not been able to place a new well with
adequate separation distance to all adjacent sewage systems.
We request a waiver be granted to allow the new well
installation within 90 ft. of an adjacent on-site septic system
and the permit issued for installation of a new well.
The present well has been having problems meeting demand and
the property owner, of their own free will, would like to
install a better well.
We have investigated the area within a 200 ft. radius of the
property and found that we could locate the new well to meet
all separation distances except for one adjacent septic system
at the rear of this lot. The maximum separation which we can
achieve from this system is 90 ft. in order to meet all other
distances. Please refer to the submitted plot plan. The
entire area has numerous systems and we feel the proposed
location is the best possible solution.
The new location will provide more separation distance than
that currently provided with the existing well. In this way,
we are improving the overall situation by providing more
separation distance with the new well.

We have enclosed well logs from two nearby wells which indicate
that there are layers of fractured rock and bedrock below the
upper layers of sand and gravel. Since this is indicative of
the general area, we feel that there is no chance of damage to
the aquifer due to the 90 ft. waiver request.
We strongly urge your approval of the permit and waiver on the
subject well installation. Should you have any questions,
please let us know.
