(A) Prior to construction permit application or permit issuance, an on-site evaluation must be performed by the Health Officer to evaluate each lot or parcel for suitability for a private on-site sewage system or privy, to establish minimum sizing requirements and to ascertain any special engineering necessary. Before an on-site evaluation will be performed, all lot corners must be visibly marked so they can be easily located. All existing utilities (gas, electricity, phone and any or all other utilities present on the property) must be marked prior to providing a soil description.
(B) Soil borings.
(1) Repair and/or replacement systems. The minimum number of borings required for repair and/or replacement private on-site sewage systems is one per existing lot or parcel in the area of installation for the repair and/or replacement.
(2) New construction. The minimum number of borings per lot or parcel is one per proposed system location and must include the reserve area(s) or such number as stipulated in The Matrix and The Standards, whichever is greater.
