RE: Septic System Monitoring Inspection Report
SITE ADDRESS:231 W KINKAID ST
PARCEL#961806503
CASE#: SOM80-00236
Dear: SUSAN SHARBONO
A review of our files for the above referenced property shows that when the title was transferred on or
about December 3,2015 a monitoring inspection was not on file for the onsite sewage system serving the
residence. Jefferson County Code 8.15.150(7)d.iii. requires that a monitoring inspection in compliance
with the frequency identified in code be on file prior to the sale or transfer of property.
A list of O&M Specialists and a copy of the record for your system, if available, is enclosed for your
convenience.
The purpose of proper maintenance is so the County,for the benefit and protection of the public's health,
is assured by this department that these systems are designed, installed and maintained in a proper
manner. We appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. If you should have further questions
please contact this office at 385-9444. The code sections referenced are attached for your information.
This letter is intended to serve as formal notice that no further approvals shall be granted until a
monitoring inspection is completed and any required corrections are made and approved by Health
Department staff. A permit is required for repair or modification of an onsite sewage system, per
Washington Administrative Code 246-272A and Jefferson County Code 8.15.
Sincerely,
