ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH DIRECTOR'S REPORT
REQUEST FOR WAIVER: WAC 246-272-140; JERRY AND CINDY
CHRISTOFFERSON: This is a request to reduce the horizontal setback between a drainfield
and well from 100' to 95'. Larry Fay presented a summary of the actions by the Health
Department. The Christofferson's had an application to install a septic system on their property
located in Port Ludlow. Between the time the permit was issued and the time the system was
installed the well had been drilled in the corner of his property, approximately 95' uphill from the
septic system drainfield. The Onsite Sewage Regulations require a separation of 100' but they do
allow Counties to grant variances as low as 75' without going to the State Department of Health
for concurrence. The Christofferson's cannot get final approval on their house until they comply
with the regulations.

The well was drilled and found to be "dry". Since there was not adequate production for it to be
used, another well was drilled. Mr. Christofferson explained that the first well was drilled down
to 473' and hit bedrock. The well drillers said if they continued drilling through the bedrock they
could eventually get water but there may be salt water intrusion. Rather than continuing with that
well a different well was drilled at another site on the property which now yields about 15
gallons of water per minute. The "dry" well was supposed to be drilled 100' from the septic
system drainfield but mistakenly was not. Since the process of abandoning the well is expensive,
and the Christofferson's cannot afford to do that at this time, they are requesting a variance. The
approval of this variance would also give the Christofferson's the option to develop the "dry" well
at some point in the future.
Larry Fay stated the Health Department has two concerns with this request. First, whether the
well is in production or not, it is still a hole in the ground and could be a potential pathway for
contamination. Even though the well is uphill from the drainfield and there is only a difference
of 5' from the required separation distance, it still poses a risk. The second concern is regarding
the appropriateness of this request. The well drilling regulations set by the Department of
Ecology outline the procedures for non-producing wells. The appropriate procedure is to properly
abandon the well. Thereby sealing up the hole. Mr. Christofferson stated the well is lined with
steel casing and surface sealed for 18'.
The Health Department recommends this request be denied because it is not consistent with the
proper procedure for dealing with an abandoned well. Larry Fay feels a reasonable approach
would be to allow a certain amount of time for the Christofferson's to become financially
prepared to either develop or abandon the well.
Discussion ensued regarding the Department of Ecology's responsibility to monitor wells.
Commissioner Huntingford moved to approve the Christofferson's request for the variance and
reduce the setback between the well and the drainfield from 100' to 95'. Commissioner Wojt
seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
APPEAL; DENIAL OF BUILDING PERMIT #BLD94-0308: JAMES AND ROSE
ANN OLSEN: Larry Fay explained that the Olsen's have applied for a building permit to
convert an existing garage into a beauty salon. In order to get approval of the building permit
the Olsen's will need to either contact a designer to bring the septic system up to current
standards and determine if it is feasible to expand the system to allow for the expanded use, or
implement one of the existing septic permits that has been issued for the property. Mr. Olsen's
brother had the property before them and applied for two septic permits because he had planned
on building two homes. Larry Fay stated that they could implement one of the existing permits
using the 3 bedroom building permit, two bedrooms for the house and 1 bedroom for the one
chair salon.
This project began two years ago. Initially it was proposed that two houses were going to be
built on the property. Later the Olsen's decided to remodel the existing house on the property
and at that time the Health Department evaluated the current septic system. It is an older system
that was installed before there were permit requirements in the County. While the evaluation
showed no apparent failure, it is not designed to assess compliance with siting requirements or
capacity of the system. In the past the Health Department has given their approval provided that
the system is functioning and the building permit does not constitute an expanded use of the
system. When there is expanded use of a system they require the older system to be brought up
to codes in terms of capacity and design. This application to convert their garage into a salon
constitutes an expanded use of the system so the Health Department has recommended to the
Building Department not to issue the permit until the Olsen's have met the requirements.
HEALTH BOARD MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 27,1994
Page 3
The present system is designed for a single family residence. Mr. Olsen stated the house initially
had two bedrooms and they converted them into one. The Olsen's claim that the addition of the
salon essentially makes the house a two bedroom home, which is what the house was permitted
for to begin with. Therefore, they feel that this does not constitute an expanded use of the septic
system but just goes from a one bedroom back to a two bedroom home.
Larry Fay stated the building permit application dated May 3, 1993 indicates that there was an
existing one bedroom home and that it was going to remain a one bedroom home and so an
upgrade was not required at the time of the remodel. The Olsen's contend that the house initially
had two bedrooms regardless of what the building permit application states.
Commissioner Wojt stated that bedrooms are used to determine how much water a household
uses. The concern is that the Olsen's do not use more water than the system can handle and that
they do not overload the drainfield. He asked if there was some way that the water usage could
be monitored? Larry Fay answered that the Onsite Sewage Regulations do not require metering of
individual water supplies. Discussion continued regarding the bedroom approach to water usage.
The current average water usage is 120 gallons per day, per bedroom. This figure represents 87%
of households in the country. About 13% of households exceed that amount. The Health
Department tries to get the systems upgraded from the start to prevent system failure at a later
date.
Mr. Olsen stated the drainfield is in their front yard and they have spent thousands of dollars on
their yard and they do not want to have to dig it all up. If the system ever failed they would fix
it. Had they known ahead of time that this would be required they would have waited until later
to spend that money on their yard. He stated that they were led to believe by the Permit Center
that they were all right, but later found out that they would have to meet the requirements of the
Health Department. Mrs. Olsen stated they were never told that they would have to go to the
Health Department. She feels there is a problem with the whole permitting process. Since the
public is not familiar with all the procedures they should be informed by the Permit Center
employees of every requirement they will have to meet. Larry Fay replied that the Hearing
Examiner approved the Conditional Use for the beauty salon, however, he did not explicitly write
in the findings that they are required to comply with health regulations. Nor did he state they
had to comply with building regulations, etc. The zoning approval is the underlying authorization
for the Health Department to evaluate the project. Had the Olsen's not received the zoning
approval the Health Department would not be reviewing their project. Zoning does not preempt
Health Department regulations anymore than the Health Department can preempt zoning. The
employees of the Permit Center do not know at the time of application all the procedures the
applicant will have to go through. If it had been a specific written condition in the findings it
would have been more clear to the Olsen's. Nevertheless, the permit for the remodel indicates the
house has one bedroom. He has to go by what the documents state. Therefore, until the Olsen's
meet the requirements of the Health Department for expanded use, they cannot get approval of the
building permit.
Chairman Hinton asked if there is any data on how much water a beauty salon station uses?
Larry Fay answered that research indicates that the average figure is 55 gallons per day, per
station. Chairman Hinton stated that is way below the 120 threshold for a bedroom.
Commissioner Huntingford asked if the original building permit indicates how many bedrooms the
house has? Larry Fay stated the original permit probably does not contain that information. He
added that if the Board is considering a waiver they may also want to consider looking into the
Policies and Procedures to see if there is a problem with them.
HEALTH BOARD MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 27, 1994
Page 4
After further discussion Commissioner Huntingford moved to approve the waiver and that Larry
Fay work with the Olsen's on a monitoring program. Commissioner Wojt seconded the motion
which carried by a unanimous vote.
GEODUCK TAVERN ONSITE SEWAGE SYSTEM REPAIR PERMIT AND
CONDITIONAL FOOD SERVICE PERMIT: Mr. Murray Perley, owner of the Geoduck
Tavern had a failing drainfield. In June he was issued a temporary food service permit for 60
days which tied into a compliance schedule for evaluating the nature of the failure. Recently he
was issued a repair permit which includes additional tank capacity, vacuuming out the failed
drainfield and some modifications to the food menu and the meals that they are open for. He
will also do monitoring for biological oxygen demand (BOD). Mr. Perley hired a consultant to
look at his operation. The Board reviewed the recommendations that were based on the test
results, the Health Department's review and the consultant's review.
Larry Fay stated Mr. Perley's temporary permit expired on September 26, 1994. The Health
Department is willing to issue a food service license valid through the end of the year and make
it renewable contingent on the compliance and monitoring of the system. Mr. Perley is in
agreement with this.
Commissioner Wojt moved to approve the issuance of the food service license on the conditions
as stated. Commissioner Huntingford seconded the motion. The motion carried.
PROCEDURES FOR CONDUCTING FOOD HANDLERS EXAMINATIONS:
Gwen Howard prepared a draft policy related to food service and beverage worker permits. The
reason for this policy is that there was a person who took the test and failed and then sat all
afternoon taking the test over and over again. Finally, one of the staff members told him to study
and come back at another time to take the test. There are no written procedures that state how
many times a day a person can take the test before they are turned away.
The policy was presented to the Board for review. If no changes are made it will be brought
back to the Board for adoption at the next meeting.
NURSING DIRECTOR'S REPORT
UPDATES: Jean Baldwin reported that the Health Department is starting a conference
for professionals, parents, and teachers that will be held at the library. It's called "Attention
Deficit Disorder". Three sessions will be held and 170 individuals have signed up. This
workshop will be televised and tapes will be made.
Jean reported that the Aids walk was very successful. The organization coordinating the walk
raised over $10,000.
The Family Planning Clinic has been open for 4 months and the Health Department has been
reviewing the costs and the number of clients seen. Approximately 102 clients are seen per
month. The clinic has had a large impact on the Health Department's services. The Health
Department is applying for a start-up grant from the State. Client fees pay for about 113 of
Family Planning services. The STD Clinic and the Family Planning Clinic costs are being
combined because they are so similar. The funds received from the City of Port Townsend for
the STD Clinic will also be used for the Family Planning Clinic. A second meeting will be held
with the Friends of Family Planning Advisory Group. The group has offered to do fundraising
which the Health Department has approved. The Health Department is unable to do any
fundraising until the end of the UGN campaign.

The Family Support Network is meeting tonight from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at the Chimacum
High School.
ALCOHOUDRUG ABUSE SERVICES DIRECTOR'S REPORT
Chester Prudhomme noted for the record that the following changes need to be made to the
Minutes of August 23, 1994, Under "Funding for Port Townsend School District Student
Assistance Counselor":
On the second page, line 46, the words "continue to" should be added between the words "to" and
"contribute" .
On page three, line 2, the words, "although this is the first time they have contributed funding"
should be added to the end of the sentence.
He stated that at the last meeting Commissioner Huntingford asked how many County Health
Department's fund this type of program? It was learned that all Counties fund them either
through their Health and Human Services or through a direct contribution.
Chester Prudhomme will send the Board the written record of this program since its inception
which will be discussed at the next meeting.
DIRECTOR'S REPORT
David Specter introduced Judy Morris, the new office manager of the Health Department, to the
Board. She was hired to replace Harriet Brunner who recently retired.
FINANCIAL REPORT: David Specter reported that 66.8% of the budget was
expended and 63.8% of budgeted revenues have been collected as of August 31, 1994. A year
end forecast has been completed for revenue and expenses to determine what the remaining
balance will be. According to the forecast the Health Department is in good shape and that has
been reflected in the preliminary budget.
He noted that the Health Department compared this years salary and benefit costs with next years,
and assuming no changes in staffing, there will still be an $86,000 increase related to the new
contract. That includes the 3% cost of living, and the new eligibility benefits. In addition there
will also be an increase of $8,000 for the rent. He doesn't feel that the Health Department can
absorb these costs. They will have some funds to carryover next year which will cover part of
the costs but not enough to cover all of them. He has asked in the preliminary budget for
$48,000 from the Current Expense fund.
PROGRAMS AND GRANTS: David Specter added to Jean Baldwin's report on the
Community Network, that Jefferson County was approved to be a separate network even though
we are under the 40,000 person threshold. The Health Department is working on appointing
members to the Community Network Council Board.
Health reform on the national level has been pronounced dead. Health reform has been enacted in
Washington and last week the Health Services Commission issued for the first time their proposed
uniform benefits package that outlines the services that will be provided to every resident of the
State with estimates of what it will cost. This will help to get a sense of what the cost to the
employers and individual subscribers will be. A teleconference is being held in Chimacum this
afternoon at 3:00 p.m. to give the Health Department and 19 other rural sites around the State an
opportunity to provide direct input to the Health Services Commission on what this means to rural
communities. He feels it would be beneficial if the Board were there. Approximately 25 people
HEALTH BOARD MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 27,1994
Page 6
from the community will be there, including businessman and health care providers. A meeting
will be held at 2:00 p.m. to strategize and develop some comments. The head of the Washington
Health Services Commission will lead the panel. Evan Jones is the local facilitator.
The Association of Counties is meeting in Long Beach in early October. David Specter stated he
was asked to sit on panel that will be presenting information about the Washington State Public
Health Improvement Plan.
David Specter stated that he is one of two people from Washington State and one of fifty people
from the whole Country that have been awarded a scholarship to the Public Health Leadership
Institute which is co-sponsored by the Federal Center for Disease Control. This is an all expense
paid scholarship and is done interactively via computers and teleconferences over a period of one
year and in the spring a one week program will be held at the Institute. Washington is getting a
lot of attention because of what the State has done with health reform which is why they want
people from our State to participate in this program.
Chairman Hinton stated there are concerns with the livaboards and pollution at the Port of Port
Townsend boat haven and asked if the Health Department has ever conducted any water quality
testing in the haven? Larry Fay stated that they have never conducted any water quality testing at
the haven. He stated that the Puget Sound Water Quality Authority looked into the livaboard
situation a few years ago and did some monitoring around a number of facilities in Puget Sound,
but he doesn't think that Port Townsend was included. They did come up with a list of
recommendations on Port Facilities relative to livaboards based on measured water quality impacts.
The problem lies with enforcement. Larry Fay has talked with the Port regarding this matter.
The Port would need to adopt some rules and regulations with conditions for livaboards. To date
this hasn't happened.
The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, October 25, 1994 at 1:30 p.m.

FROM: Jerry and Cindy Christofferson
P.O. Box 65189
Port Ludlow, 98365
SUBJ: Variance on 100' separation between well and septic drain field.
We hereby request a variance from the 100' separation requirement
between the well and drain field for our property located at 735 Tala
Shore DR., Port Ludlow.
The well is located 95' uphill from the inlet end of the first leg of
the drain field, the uphill slope is approximately 15 degrees. Due to
the uncertain and varying depth of the aquifer in this area of Tala Point
this well was not producing an adequate amount of potable water, but
could with further development. To keep the option open of further
development we are requesting this variance.
cindy and I appreciate your consideration of this matter, thank you
very much.

bedroom residences, there is an existing cabin on the property and is
intended to be torn down.
5-3-93 Health Department receives building permit application for
improvements on existing cabin (under James Olsen) .

are no records in the Health Department regarding the existing sewage
disposal system on this site. This was required as part of the building
permit evaluation.
5-20-94 Conversation with Mike Ajax, he explained the building permit
application for cabin is for a complete rebuild.
5-21-94 A site visit was made to evaluate the existing sewage disposal
system at 30040 Highway 101. Mr. James Olsen was present. The septic
tank was uncovered. The location nor the size of the drainfie1d area was
determined at this visit. The discussion came up in regards to placement
of a reserve drainfie1d. Mr. Olsen indicated we could designate one of
the drainfield areas identified in the pending sewage permits issued in
his brother's name (now his permits).
5-23-94 The building permit application was approved from the Health
Department for the remodel of the existing one bedroom cabin.
6-10-93

Re: IZA94-0016
Dear Ms. Robinson;
It has been brought to my attention that you have been having problems
getting final approval for a home business to be located in your garage.
Jefferson County has had a process for property owners to follow when
they desire to build or remodel a structure. The process involves permits
for building and in this case, a change in zoning and a change of use.
The problems you have been having seem to go all the way back to
when you rebuilt your house. No permits were applied for and the
Building Official was forced to stop construction until the proper
applications were submitted. The same pattern repeated itself when the
garage was constructed. At this time, the construction of the garage
has not been finaled. When the Building Official came to help you he
was treated in a less then desirable manner. Abusing the Building
Official will not speed up the process. He is providing you with a
service and is not required to take abuse and insults.
Now, you have made preparations to begin operation of a Beauty Salon
in the garage. The process requires that you apply for a Change of Use
permit. The Health Department will need to approve your septic and
water system and your garage will need to be altered to meet safety
standards before you begin operation of the Beauty Salon. Please make
arrangements to get final approval for your garage as per the Building
Official's requirements. This is a recommended condition of the
Conditional Use permit application reviewed by the Hearing Examiner.

Then you can file an application for a Change of Use permit. At that
time, the Health Department will evaluate your septic system and water
system. All of these requirements will need to be addressed prior to
commencement of business operations. There are no guarantees in this
process.
Please call me if you have any further questions or comments.

SUMMARY OF GEODUCK TAVERN CASE
A temporary (Emergency) operating food service permit was issued
following the June 28, 1994 Board of Health meeting. This permit
expired September 26, 1994. This permit was issued due to the
failing drainfield on the site. Mr. Perley was instructed to have
BOD testing completed on the system and complete a plan of action
for repair of the system.
A site visit and discussion was completed on September 8, 1994.
Mr. Perley, Bud Smith (installer) and Linda Atkins were present.
The following was agreed upon based on previous observations of the
drainfield, BOD test results received from Aqua-Test, and
recommendations made by Joseph J. Domincyzk, P.E..
1) Single service only (i.e. paper)
2) No breakfast will be served
3) No automatic dishwasher will be used, 3 compartment sinks
are required.
4) BOD (biological oxygen demand) test shall be done at 5
mos, 8 mos, and 11 mos from the date of issuance. Results
shall be submitted to the Jefferson County Environmental
Health Department within 30 days of the date the test is taken
each time.
5) Two, 1000 gallon tanks shall be added with an outlet
baffle filter on the last outlet.
6) Fill will be added to the southern most drainfield bed to
a depth of 12" maximum.
7) Low flow toilets (1.6 gal/flush) are highly recommended.
8) Observation ports shall be placed in each drainfield bed
for monitoring purposes.
A repair permit for the septic system was issued September 21, 1994
and repairs must be completed within 30 days.
A Food Service Permit will be issued to the tavern based on
compliance with the above conditions. Fees have been paid for 1994
and a food service license fee will be required for 1995.
An evaluation of the septic system will be required in September
1995 to determine if the above efforts have been successful in
repairing the onsite sewage disposal system. If they are
successful the Food Service Permit will be extended. Further
monitoring and evaluation may be required to insure continued
operation of the onsite sewage system.
