Dear Mr. Logarides:
As requested we have completed a soils study at the referenced site. The purpose of
the study was to determine the suitability of the soils for the disposal of sewage by
means of a septic tank drainfield system. The investigation has consisted of drilling a
series of five (5) hand auger test holes to determine soil profiles on the property. A
log of each test hole is shown on the enclosed soil profile sheet. The approximate
location of the profile holes is shown on the enclosed site plan prepared by Gloeckner
Engineering and Surveying, Inc. The holes have been flagged with orange ribbon for
future reference. Also enclosed is a soil information summary sheet containing
information pertinent to the design of the proposed drainfield.
Based on our investigation it is our opinion that the soils in the vicinity of holes A-E
are suitable for installation of drainfield lines under the current Health Department
regulations.
We have submitted a copy of this report to Mr. Bill Craun with Charlottesville-
Albemarle Health Department for his review.
The contents of this report reflect our opinion as to the suitability of the soils in the
area investigated to support a septic tank/drainfield system under the current Health
Department regulations. Final approval and design of the drainfield rests with the
Charlottesville-Albemarle Health Department.
