Please be advised that on November 5, 2014, I conducted a site visit at Waterperry Farm, Free Union, VA
to assess the existing sewage disposal system and water supplies. As indicated on their pre-application,
the owner, Katherine Kane intends to provide suitable venue and facilities for 24 events per year
(weddings, charity events, etc.)
During my meeting with Rebekah Graves, I discussed a number of Health Department related issues and
requirements for approval by the Charlottesville-Albemarle Health Department. It was agreed that the
following requirements would be met for all events:
1. Portable restrooms will be provided in an area/areas designated near the event site.
2. All water supplies that will provide water for the participants will be tested at a minimum once per
year for bacterial content, indicating negative results for coliform bacteria. Proper connections
where needed will be provided (hydrant, food grade hoses, etc.)
3. ALL food for each event will be catered to the site by a VDH Permitted caterer.
4. Use of bathroom facilities is to be limited as much as possible primary event participants (wedding
party members, etc.) and not by attendees.
5. Proper waste receptacles will be provided.
