The contractor shall furnish all labor, supervision, equipment, tools, parts, supplies and materials,
as necessary, to perform the services as described herein:
A) Conduct onsite sewage system site evaluations and submit onsite sewage system designs
pursuant to the Sewage Handling and Disposal Regulations (12VAC5-610-10 et. seq., the
Regulations) and the Regulations for Alternative Onsite Sewage Systems (12VAC5-613-10 et.
seq., the AOSS Regulations), and all other applicable state and local laws, regulations and
ordinances for repair of existing onsite sewage systems. Site evaluations and design shall be
submitted to the applicable local health department for the following properties:
o 345 Airport Rd, Mattaponi, VA 23110 (2023-MPPDC-06S)
Site evaluations and designs shall include property marking of all utilities, and review of all
relevant records for neighboring parcels. Designs shall fully comply with the Regulations and
AOSS Regulations; designs cannot rely upon the issuance of treatment or pressure dosing waivers
for permitting.
B) Prior to all site and soil evaluations, the contractor shall have the contents of the existing septic
tank serving the subject properties pumped by a properly licensed sewer hauler to allow for a
complete malfunction assessment.
C) Provide or subcontract with a licensed surveyor to survey and mark the boundaries for all
subject properties. Partial property boundary surveys of only the boundary closest to the proposed
repair site are allowable for properties greater than 3 acres in size.
D) Obtain an onsite sewage system repair permit for each of the subject properties from the
applicable local health department. Please note that all homeowners have already been determined
to be fiscally eligible for a permit fee waiver so there will not be a cost associated with acquiring
the repair permit.
E) Comply with all requirements of the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulations
(DPOR) for contracting and executing the contract with the Virginia Department of Health. Must
provide a copy of a Master Alternative Onsite Soil Evaluator license from DPOR.
Optional site visit: Available upon request.
Notes: A past survey, photo, and LHD documentation are attached. Site visit is encouraged as the
site is compact with some potential design challanges. The LHD notes in their Construction
Permit denial "Insufficient depth of suitable soil to seasonal water table.", and "Insufficient area of
acceptable soil for a conventional drainfield." "Contact Private Sector to design proposed repair."
