Conditionally Passes
Needs Further Evaluation by the Local Authority
Fails
Inspector's Signature: Date:
The system inspector shall submit a copy of this inspection report to the Approving Authority(Board of Health or
DEP)within 30 days of completing this inspection.If the system is a shared system or has a design flow of 10,000
gpd or greater,the inspector and the system owner shall submit the report to the appropriate regional office of the
DEP.The original should be sent to the system owner and copies sent to the buyer, if applicable,and the approving

Inspection Summary: Check A,B,C,D or E/ALWAYS complete all of Section D
C. System Passes:
have not found any information which indicates that any of the failure criteria described in 310 CMR
15.303 or in 310 CMR 15.304 exist.Any failure criteria not evaluated are indicated below.
Comments:
B. System Conditionally Passes:
One or more system components as described in the"Conditional Pass"sect' need to be replaced or
repaired.The system,upon completion of the replacement or repair,as approved y the Board of Health,will pass..
Answer yes,no or not determined (Y.,N,ND)in the for the followi gstatements. If"not determined" lease
explain.
P
The septic tank is metal and over 20 years old*or the septi ank(whether metal or not)is structurally
unsound,exhibits substantial infiltration or exfiltration or tank failure is imminent. System will pass inspection if the
existing tank is replaced with a complying septic tank as approved by the Board of Health.
*A metal septic tank will pass inspection if it is structurally,s6und,not leaking and if a Certificate of Compliance
indicating that the tank is less than 20 years old is available.
ND explain: ;{
i
Observation of sewage backup or break out or high static water level in the distribution box due to broken or
obstructed pipe(s)or due to a broken,settled or,tineven distribution'box. System will pass inspection if(with
approval of Board of Health):
broken pipe(s)are replaced
obstruction is removed
/ distribution box is leveled or replaced

C. Further Evaluation is Required by the Board of Health:
Conditions exist which require further evaluation by th/Brd f Health in order to determine if the system
is failing to protect public health,safety or the environment.
1. System will pass unless Board of Health deter es in accordance with 310 CMR 15.303(l)(b)that the
system.is not functioning in a manner which ill protect public health,safety and the environment:
_Cesspool or privy is within 50 feet of surface water
Cesspool or privy is within 50 feet a bordering vegetated wetland or a salt marsh
2. System will fail unless the Board of Health(and Public Water Supplier, ' any)determines that the
system is functioning in a manner that protects the public health,safety and nvironment:
_The system has a septic tank and soil absorption system(SAS)an a SAS is within 100 feet of a
surface water supply or tributary to a surface water supply.
The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS is withi Zone 1 of a public water supply.
_The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS is w' in 50 feet of a private water supply well.
_The system has a septic tank and SAS and the SAS ' less than 100 feet but 50 feet or more from a
private water supply well". Method used to determi distance
"This system passes if the well water analysis,pe ormed at a DEP certified laboratory,for coliform
bacteria and volatile organic compounds indicates tl t the well is free from pollution from that facility and
the presence of ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitr�gen is equal to or less than 5 ppm,provided that no other
failure criteria are triggered. A copy of the analysis must be attached to this form.

D. System Failure Criteria applicable to all systems:
You must indicate"yes"or"no"to each of the following for all inspections:
Yes No
Backup of sewage into facility or system component due to overloaded or clogged SAS or cesspool
Discharge or ponding of effluent to the surface of the ground or surface waters due to an overloaded or
clogged SAS or cesspool
_xZ Static liquid level in the distribution box above outlet invert due to and overloaded or clogged SAS or
cesspool
Liquid depth in cesspool is less than 6"below invert or available volume is less than '/2 day flow
Required pumping more than 4 times in the last year NOT due to clogged or obstructed pipe(s).Number
of times pumped
Any portion of the SAS,cesspool or privy is below high ground water elevation.
Any portion of cesspool or privy is within 100 feet of a surface water supply or tributary to a surface
water supply.
Any portion of a cesspool or privy is within a Zone 1 of a public well.
Any portion of a cesspool or privy is 50 feet of a private water supply well.
a/ Any portion of a cesspool or privy is less than 100 feet.but greater than 50 feet from a private water
supply well with no acceptable water quality analysis. (This system passes if the well water analysis,
performed at a DEP certified laboratory,for coliform bacteria and volatile organic compounds
indicates that the well is free from pollution from that facility and the presence of ammonia
nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen is equal to or less than 5 ppm,provided that no other failure criteria
are triggered.A copy of the analysis must be attached to this form.]
Jl�0(Yes/No)The system fails. I have determined that one or more of the above criteria exist as
described in 310 CMR 15.303,therefore the system fails.The system owner should contact the Board of
Health to determine what will be necessary to correct the failure.
E. Large Systems:
To be considered a large system the system must serve a facilit ith a design flow of 10,000 gpd to 15,000
gpd•
You must indicate either"yes"or"no"to each of the followin .
(The following criteria apply to large systems in addition to a criteria above)
yes no
_ —the system is within 400 feet of a surface dr' ing water supply
the system is within 200 feet of aZ
to a surface drinking water supply
the system is located in a nitrogeive area(Interim Wellhead Protection Area—IWPA)or a mapped
Zone II of a public water supply
If you have answered"yes"to any question m Section E the system is considered a significant threat,or answered
"yes"in Section D above the large stem has failed.The owner or operator of any large system considered a
significant threat under Section E r failed under Section D shall upgrade the system in accordance with 310 CMR
15.304.The system owner shou contact the appropriate regional office of the Department.
