THE SUBDIVISION PROCESS In order to subdivide land in Garfield County, an Applicant is required to complete the following land use processes in the following order: 1) Sketch Plan Review Process, 2) Preliminary Plan Review Process, and 3) Final Plat Review Process. This section will briefly describe the nature of each process and provide general direction including subdivision regulation citations to a potential applicant requesting subdivision approval in Garfield County. All of the Garfield County Zoning and Subdivision Regulations are located for purchase at the Planning Department and can also be found on the World Wide Web at the following address: http://www.garfield-countv.com/building and planning/index.htm A) The Sketch Plan Review (Section 3:00 of the Subdivision Regulations) 1. Purpose The purpose of the Sketch Plan process is to allow an individual an opportunity to propose a subdivision in a "sketch" format to the Planning Department and the Garfield County Planning Commission in order to obtain a cursory review for compliance with the County's land use review documents, regulations, and policies to identify any issues that would need to be addressed if the proposed subdivision were to be pursued. 2. Applicability Any individual proposing a subdivision in Garfield County is required to complete the Sketch Plan review process as the first step in Garfield County's Subdivision process. More specifically, Garfield County defines a subdivision (Section 2:20.48) as the division of a lot, tract or parcel of land into two (2) or more lots, tracts, parcels or separate interests, or the use of any parcel of land for condominiums, apartments or other multiple -dwelling units, as further defined by Colorado state law. 3. Application / Submittal Requirements In order to apply for a Sketch Plan Review an Applicant is responsible for reviewing Section 3:00 of the Subdivision Regulations and providing enough information to the Planning Department in the application to conduct a thorough review and provide the resulting comments to the Planning Commission for their review and comments. Specifically, Section 3:30, 3:32, and 3:40 of the Subdivision Regulations contain the specific information required to be submitted to the Planning Department in order to satisfy the application requirements in addition to the information requested on this application form. 4. Process / Public Meeting The Sketch Plan review process is considered a 1 -step process because the application is reviewed only by the Planning Commission at a public meeting. In order to appear before the Planning Commission, an applicant will have submitted all required application submittal requirements mentioned above to the Planning Department Staff. Once submitted, Staff will have 15 working days to review the application to determine if all the required submittal information has been submitted as required. If Staff determines that all the required information has been submitted, a letter will be sent to the applicant indicating the application has been deemed "technically complete." It is at this point Staff will also indicate when the application has been 3 scheduled to be reviewed before the Planning Commission and will request the applicant supply additional copies to provide the Commission for their review. If Staff determines that all the required information has not been submitted, a letter will be sent to the applicant indicating the application does not comply with the submittal requirements and therefore has determined the application to be "technically incomplete." The letter will also outline the applications deficiencies so that the applicant knows what additional information needs to be submitted. At this point, the applicant has 6 months (180 days) to provide the necessary information to the Planning Department to remedy the application so that it may be deemed technically complete. If the application has not been deemed technically complete within this time, the application will be terminated. Once the application has been deemed technically complete and a date has been established as to when the Planning Commission will review the application, Staff will conduct a land use review of the application using the County's land use regulatory documents including the Zoning Resolution, Subdivision Regulations, and the Comprehensive Plan of 2000. In addition, Staff will also consider referral comments provided from a variety of state and local agencies who may also review the application. As a result, Staff will write a Memorandum on the proposed subdivision to the Planning Commission containing the results on the land use analysis. This Memorandum will also be furnished in advance to the applicant. At the date and time set for the public meeting before the Planning Commission, Staff will present the findings in the Memorandum and the applicant will be required to present the proposed subdivision and respond to comments and questions provided by the Planning Commission. The comments provided to the Applicant by the Planning Department and the Planning Commission as a result of the Sketch Plan Process will be kept on file in the Planning Department for 1 -year from the meeting date before the Planning Commission. If an Applicant does not submit a Preliminary Plan application to the Planning Department within the 1 -year timeframe, the Sketch Plan file will be closed and the Applicant will need to reapply for a Sketch Plan review prior to a Preliminary Plan review. B) Preliminary Plan Review (Section 4:00 of the Subdivision Regulations) 1. Purpose The purpose of the Preliminary Plan review process is to conduct a thorough review of the many aspects that are associated with dividing land in Garfield County for the purposes of residential, commercial, and industrial development. This is the most intensive review step where the Building and Planning Staff, the Planning Commission, and the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) will conduct a thorough review of all the issues associated with the proposed subdivision against the County's regulatory requirements. Ultimately, the purpose of this process is to identify all the major issues in the proposed subdivision by using the County's Zoning Resolution, Subdivision Regulations, Comprehensive Plan of 2000, as well as other state and local referral agencies that will provide comments on any issues raised in their review. This is the process that will either approve or deny the application request. 4 2. Applicability Any individual proposing a subdivision in Garfield County is required to complete the Preliminary Plan review process as the second and most intensive step in Garfield County's Subdivision process. More specifically, Garfield County defines a subdivision as the division of a lot, tract or parcel of land into two (2) or more lots, tracts, parcels or separate interests, or the use of any parcel of land for condominiums, apartments or other multiple -dwelling units, as further defined by Colorado state law. 3. Application / Submittal Requirements In order to apply for a Preliminary Plan Review, an Applicant must have already completed the Sketch Plan review process addressed in Section 3:00 of the Subdivision Regulations. An applicant requesting Preliminary Plan review will be required to submit this application form, all the required submittal information contained in Sections 4:40 to 4:94 of the Subdivision Regulations as well as address all of the applicable Design and Improvement Standards in Section 9:00 of the Subdivision Regulations. In addition to the substantive submittal information related to the proposed subdivision project itself, an applicant is required to complete all the public notice requirements so that legal public hearings can be held before the Planning Commission and the BOCC which is addressed in Sections 4:20 — 4:31 of the Subdivision Regulations. 4. Process / Public Hearings The Preliminary Plan review process is considered a 2 -step process because the application is ultimately reviewed by two County decision-making entities during public hearings: the Planning Commission who makes a recommendation to the BOCC. In order to obtain dates for the public hearings before the Planning Commission and the BOCC, an applicant will have submitted all required application submittal requirements mentioned above to the Planning Department Staff. Once submitted, Staff will have 30 working days to review the application to determine if all the required submittal information has been submitted as required. If Staff determines that all the required information has been submitted, a letter will be sent to the applicant indicating the application has been deemed "technically complete." It is at this point Staff will also indicate when the application has been scheduled to be reviewed before the Planning Commission / BOCC. Additionally, Staff will provide the applicant with the notice forms to be mailed, published, and posted. If Staff determines that all the required information has not been submitted, a letter will be sent to the applicant indicating the application does not comply with the submittal requirements and therefore has determined the application to be "technically incomplete." The letter will also outline the applications deficiencies so that the 5 applicant knows what additional information needs to be submitted. At this point, the applicant has 6 months (180 days) to provide the necessary information to the Planning Department to remedy the application so that it may be deemed technically complete. If the application has not been deemed technically complete within this time, the application will be terminated. Once the application has been deemed technically complete and a date has been established as to when the Planning Commission / BOCC will review the application, Staff will conduct a land use review of the application using the County's land use regulatory documents including the Zoning Resolution, Subdivision Regulations, and the Comprehensive Plan of 2000. In addition, Staff will also consider referral comments provided from a variety of state and local agencies who may also review the application. As a result, Staff will write a Memorandum on the proposed subdivision to the Planning Commission / BOCC containing the results on the land use analysis. This Memorandum will also be furnished in advance to the applicant prior to the public hearings. As mentioned above, Staff makes a recommendation to the Planning Commission and the BOCC regarding the issues raised in the analysis of the proposed subdivision. The Applicant will first propose the subdivision to the Planning Commission who is responsible for making a recommendation of approval, approval with conditions, or denial to the BOCC. Next, the application will be reviewed by the BOCC during a regular public hearing. The BOCC will consider the recommendations from the Planning Staff and the Planning Commission, the information presented by the applicant, and the public. As a result, the BOCC is the final decision-making entity regarding the proposed subdivision and will either approve, approve with conditions, or deny the application. If the BOCC approves the subdivision application at the public hearing, the approval shall be valid for a period not to exceed one (1) year from the date of Board approval, or conditional approval, unless an extension of not more than one (1) year is granted by the Board prior to the expiration of the period of approval. (See the specific information provided in Section 4:34 of the Subdivision Regulations.) Following the hearing, Staff will provide a resolution signed by the BOCC which memorializes the action taken by the Board with any / all conditions which will be recorded in the Clerk and Recorder's Office. Once an applicant has Preliminary Plan approval, they are required to complete the third and final step in the County's Subdivision Process: Final Plat Review. C) Final Plat Review (Section 5:00 of the Subdivision Regulations) 1. Purpose The purpose of the Final Plat review process is to provide the applicant with a mechanism to prove to the County that all the conditions of approval required during the Preliminary Plan review process have been met / addressed to the satisfaction of the Planning Staff and the BOCC. This being the case, the chairman of the BOCC will 6. sign the Final Plat and have it recorded memorializing the subdivision approval granted by the BOCC. This is the last step in the County's subdivision process. 2. Applicability Any individual proposing a subdivision in Garfield County is required to complete the Final Plat review process as the third and last step in Garfield County's Subdivision process. More specifically, Garfield County defines a subdivision as the division of a lot, tract or parcel of land into two (2) or more lots, tracts, parcels or separate interests, or the use of any parcel of land for condominiums, apartments or other multiple -dwelling units, as further defined by Colorado state law. 3. Application / Submittal Requirements In order to apply for a Final Plat review, an Applicant must have already completed the Preliminary Plan review process addressed in Section 4:00 of the Subdivision Regulations. An applicant requesting Final Plat review will be required to submit this application form, all the required submittal information contained in Section 5:00 of the Subdivision Regulations and responses to all the conditions of approval required as part of the Preliminary Plan review process. 4. Process The Final Plat review process is considered a 1 -step process because the application is ultimately reviewed by the Building and Planning Staff and presented to the BOCC for their signature if the application satisfies all the required submittal information to the satisfaction of the Building and Planning Department. If Staff determines that all the required information has been submitted, a letter will be sent to the applicant indicating the application has been deemed "technically complete." It is at this point Staff will also indicate when the application has been scheduled to be presented to the BOCC for signature. (This is not a public hearing or meeting and therefore does not require public notice.) If Staff determines that all the required information has not been submitted, a letter will be sent to the applicant indicating the application does not comply with the submittal requirements and therefore has determined the application to be "technically incomplete." The letter will also outline the applications deficiencies so that the applicant knows what additional information needs to be submitted. Once the application has been deemed technically complete and a date has been established as to when the BOCC will review the Final Plat, Staff will review the application / Final Plat in terms of adequacy to determine if all the submittal information satisfies the Final plat requirements as well as the responses to the conditions of approval. During this review, Staff will forward the Final Plat the County Surveyor for review and a signature. In the event there are additional questions or clarification issues to be addressed, the County Surveyor will generally contact the applicant to have the plat adjusted as necessary. Once, Staff has completed the review and all required information has been submitted to the satisfaction of the Planning Department 7 and the County Surveyor has signed the Final Plat in Mylar form, it will be scheduled at the next BOCC meeting to be placed on the consent agenda with a request to authorize the Chairman of the BOCC to sign the plat. Once the Final Plat is signed, it is then recorded by the County Clerk in the Clerk and Recorder's Office for a fee of $11 for the first sheet and $10 for each additional sheet thereafter. This fee shall be paid by the applicant. This act of recording the signed Final Plat represents the completion of the Garfield County Subdivision Process. Please refer to the specific language in the Final Plat portion (Section 5:00) of the Subdivision Regulations for specific timelines and additional responsibilities required of the applicant to complete the Final Plat process. Please Note: This information presented above is to be used as a general guide for an applicant considering a subdivision in Garfield County. It is highly recommended that an applicant either purchase the Garfield County Zoning Resolution and Subdivision Regulations or access them on-line at: http://www.garfield-county.com/building and planninq/index.htm in order to ascertain all the necessary requirements for each of the three steps including Sketch Plan Review, Preliminary Plan Review, and Final Plat Review.

Checks, including the appropriate Base Fee set forth below, must be submitted with each land use application, and made payable to the Garfield County Treasurer. Applications will not be accepted without the required application fee. Base Fees are non-refundable in full, unless a written request for withdraw from the applicant is submitted prior the initial review of the application materials.

Bookcliff Survey Services, Inc. 230 C.R. 261 136 E. 3rd St. Silt, CO 81652 Rifle, CO 81650 (970) 948-3153 (970) 625-2773 March 19, 2008 STATEMENT OF PURPOSE North Bell Ranch Subdivision will divide two 2 plus acre lots from an existing 35 -acre parcel with the remaining 30 -acres encompassing the farming/ranching operations of the property. The existing residence will be on one of the 2 -acre parcels and the second 2 -acre parcel will have a building envelope allowing a single family residence. The remaining 30 -acre parcel will allow a single family residence. The purpose of this application is to request Final Plat approval for North Bell Ranch Subdivision as depicted in the attached documents and plans. The proposed North Bell Ranch Subdivision is located on Silt Mesa just north of the Silt Mesa Road (CR 233). The property is bounded on the south by the Silt Mesa Road (CR 233), County Road 214 and a single family parcel; on the east by County Road 228 (Pretti Lane); on the west by County Road 261 (Groff Lane); on the north by private parcels. The property topographically consists of a level bench area on the west adjacent to CR 261 separated from a bench area and the irrigated pasture to the east by two drainage channels converging within the property. The drainage channels have relatively steep sides with varying degrees of height up to approximately 15 -feet. No development is proposed within the drainage channels. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT North Bell Ranch Subdivision (NBRS) proposes two lots (Lots 2 and 3) along the western edge of the property each being 2 plus acres in size. These lots abut County Road 261 and will have direct access to the County Road. Proposed Lot 2 will contain the existing single family residence with an existing driveway. Currently, there are 5 parcels on the west side of CR 261 ranging in size from 1.63 to 3.74 acres with accesses onto CR 261. These parcels contain single family residences with no agricultural or ranching production. The two parcels directly to the west of the existing residence have approximately 1 - acre building sites due to the steep hillside on the west side of the parcels. The remaining approximately 30 -acres of the property (Lot 1) will have a single family residence and will contain the irrigated hay field along with the agricultural/ranching structures which are to remain in use. These structures currently consist of a hay barn and riding arena.

Irrespective of the amount of water actually transferred to the Applicant's point of diversion, the Applicant shall make annual payments to the District based upon the amount of water allotted under this Contract. In the event the Applicant intends to apply for an alternate point of diversion and to develop an augmentation plan and institute legal proceedings for the approval of such augmentation plan to allow the Applicant to utilize the water allotted to Applicant hereunder, the Applicant shall give the District written notice of such intent. In the event the Applicant develops and adjudicates its own augmentation plan to utilize the water allotted hereunder, Applicant shall not be obligated to pay any amount under Paragraph 19 below.

Costs of Water Court Filing and Augmentation Plan: Should the District, in its own discretion, choose to include Applicant's Contract herein in a water court filing for alternate point of diversion or plan of augmentation, then Applicant hereby agrees to pay to the District, when assessed, an additional fee representing the District's actual and reasonable costs and fees for Applicant's share of the proceedings. Applicant shall be assessed a pro -rata share of the total cost incurred by the District in preparing, filing and pursuing to decree the water court case. The pro -rata share shall be calculated by dividing such total cost by the number of contractees included in the filing. To the extent that the District is caused additional costs because of objection filed specifically due to the inclusion of Applicant's Contract in the filing, such additional costs may be charged specifically to Applicant and not shared on a pro -rata basis by all contractees. 20.

Water Rights: Applicant shall own water rights at the point of diversion herein lawfully entitling Applicant to divert water, which will be supplemented and augmented by water leased herein. If Applicant intends to divert through a well, it must be understood by Applicant that no right to divert exists until a valid well permit is obtained from the Colorado Division of Water Resources. 2. Quantity: Water applied for by the Applicant in the amount set forth above shall be diverted at Applicant's point of diversion from the District's direct flow water rights, and when water is unavailable for diversion pursuant to administration by the Colorado State Engineer during periods when said direct flow water right is not in priority, the District shall release for the use of Applicant up to said quantity in acre feet per year of storage water owned or controlled by the District. It is understood that any quantity allotted from direct flow, storage or otherwise, to the Applicant by the District will be Limited by the priority of the District's decrees and by the physical and legal availability of water from District's sources. Any quantity allotted will only be provided so long as water is available and the Applicant fully complies with all of the terms and conditions of this Contract. The District and the Applicant recognize that some of the District's decrees may be in the name of the Colorado River Water Conservation District, and the ability of the District to allot direct flow right to the Applicant may be dependent on the consent of the Colorado River Water Conservation District. If at any time the Applicant determines it requires less water than the amount herein provided, Applicant may so notify the District in writing, and the amount of water allotted under this Contract shall be reduced permanently in accordance with such notice. Rates shall be adjusted accordingly in following water years only. 3. Beneficial Use and Location of Beneficial Use: Any and all water allotted Applicant by the District shall be used for the following beneficial use or uses: industrial, municipal, domestic and related uses, or commercial (except for commercial use from Alsbury Reservoir and except to the extent that Ruedi Reservoir water may not be available for commercial as that term is defined on Page 5 of Contract No. 2-07-70-W0547 between the United States and the West Divide Water Conservancy District). Applicant's beneficial use of any and all water allotted shall be within or through facilities or upon land owned, leased, operated, or under Applicant's control. 4. Decrees and Delivery: Exchange releases made by the District out of storage from Ruedi Reservoir, Green Mountain Reservoir, A lsbury Reservoir, or other works or facilities of the District, or from other sources available to the District, shall be delivered to the Applicant at the outlet works of said storage facilities or at the decreed point of diversion for said other sources, and release or delivery ofwater at 1 such outlet or points shall constitute performance of the District's total obligation. Delivery of water by the District from Ruedi Reservoir or Green Mountain Reservoir shall be subject to the Districts lease contracts with the United States Bureau of Reclamation. Releases from other facilities available to District shall be subject to the contracts, laws, rules, and regulations governing releases therefrom. Furthermore, the District hereby expressly reserves the right to store water and to make exchange releases from structures that may be built or controlled by the District in the future, so long as the water service to the Applicant pursuant to this agreement, is not impaired by said action. Any quantity of the Applicant's allocation not delivered to or used by Applicant by the end of each water year (October 1), shall revert to the water supplies of the District. Such reversion shall not entitle Applicant to any refund of payment made for such water. Water service provided by the District shall be limited to the amount of water available in priority at the original point of diversion of the District's applicable water right, and neither the District, nor those entitled to utilize the District's decrees, may call on any greater amount at new or alternate points of diversion. The District shall request the Colorado Division of Water Resources to estimate any conveyance losses between the original point and any alternate point, and such estimate shall be deducted from this amount in each case. Water service provided by the District for properties located within the Bluestone and Silt Water Conservancy Districts is provided pursuant to Agreements with said Districts.

Obtaining such decree is the exclusive responsibility of Applicant. The District reserves the right to review and approve any conditions which may be attached to judicial approval of said alternate point of diversion as contemplated or necessary to serve Applicant's facilities or lands. Applicant acknowledges and agrees that it shall be solely responsible for the procedures and legal engineering costs necessary for any changes in water rights contemplated herein, and further agrees to indemnify the District from any costs or losses related thereto. Applicant is solely responsible for providing works and facilities necessary to obtain/divert the waters at said alternate point of diversion and deliver them to Applicant's intended beneficial use. Irrespective of the amount of water actually transferred to the Applicants point of diversion, the Applicant shall make annual payments to the District based upon the amount of water allotted under this Contract. In the event the Applicant intends to apply for an alternate point of diversion and to develop an augmentation plan and institute legal proceedings for the approval of such augmentation plan to allow the Applicant to utilize the water allotted to Applicant hereunder, the Applicant shall give the District written notice of such intent. In the event the Applicant develops and adjudicates its own augmentation plan to utilize the water allotted hereunder, Applicant shall not be obligated to pay any amount under Paragraph 19 below. In any event, the District shall have the right to approve or disapprove the Applicant's augmentation plan and the Applicant shall provide the District copies of such plan and of all pleadings and other papers filed with the water court in the adjudication thereof. 6.

Form #WDWCD 050901 CONTRACT. 6 APPENDIX G ISDS O&M INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEM (Septic Tank and Leach Field) OPERATION and MAINTENANCE GUIDE PREPARED BY: Bell Consulting, LLC. INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEM OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE The following tips and suggestions are intended to increase the useful life of your engineered sewage disposal system and to prevent disposal system failure due to neglect and abuse. The design of this system is designed for a specific number of persons occupying the stated structures. A larger occupancy rate than the design rate may result in an overload of the septic system and cause immediate system failure or a reduction of the life span of the leaching area. MINIMIZE THE LIQUIDS Practicing water conservation practices within your home can minimize wastewater that enters the system. The less wastewater you produce, the less wastewater there will be to treat and dispose. 1. Repair leaky fixtures. Check the toilet by dropping food coloring dyes in the tank and see if it shows up in the bowl prior to flushing. 2. Wash clothes only when you have a full load. 3. Take short showers instead of baths. Don't turn on the shower all the way and turn it off while lathering. 4. Install and use water saving fixtures and devices in your bathrooms, laundry rooms and kitchens. 5. Do not let the water run while washing, shaving, brushing teeth, rinsing vegetables, dishes, etc. Use a stoppered basin where possible. 6. Provide adequate drainage around the engineered system area to divert surface runoff from higher ground during storms or winter snowmelt. MINIMIZE THE SOLIDS Septic systems are "anaerobic" treatment systems. Digestion of solid materials is very slow and requires air or "aerobic" conditions to "disappear". The less material you put into the system, the less often it will require pumping. A good rule to follow is: "Don't use your septic system for anything that can be disposed of in I.S.D.S. 0&M Manual page 2 of 4 some other way" 1. Avoid using a garbage disposal. Properly dispose of scraps and other garbage by composting, recycling, or with the trash. 2. Collect grease in a container rather than pouring it down the sink. 3. Minimize the disposal of paper products into the system. Non- degradable items such as disposable diapers, sanitary napkins, tissues, cigarette butts and paper towels are especially harmful to the system. 4. Only three things should go into the septic tank: Human Wastes; Toilet Paper; and Water. 5. Ordinary household chemicals (bleaches, detergents & soaps) will not hurt the bacteria in your system when not used in excessive amounts. 6. DO NOT DISPOSE OILS, PAINTS, THINNERS, FILM DEVELOPMENT OR OTHER TOXIC LIQUIDS INTO YOUR SYSTEM. SEPTIC TANK ADDITIVES Advertised chemical additives, bacteria, enzymes, etc. do not help solids breakdown in the septic tank and will not reduce the need for pumping the septic tank. REGULAR INSPECTIONS Septic Tank: To inspect the septic tank, remove the manhole cover at the inlet end of the tank. Use a shovel to push the scum layer away from the side of the tank and estimate its thickness. If the scum layer is 12" thick or more, arrange to have the septic tank pumped immediately. Replace the cover and wash off the shovel and your hands. For an average 3 or 4 bedroom residence, the pumping interval for the septic tank is usually between 2 and 4 years. Annual inspection of the septic tank should become part of your overall home maintenance routine. I.S.D.S. O&M Manual page 3 of 4 Dosing Tank or Pump Station: To inspect the dosing tank, follow the same instructions for the septic tank. However, there should not be a scum layer or sediments inside the tank. Check to see if the water level markings are consistent on the side of the tank. Variability indicates that the siphon or effluent pump is not operating properly. If the water level is near the top of the markings, wait for the siphon or pump to operate and watch for problems. The siphon has an overflow pipe in which the effluent will flow out of the tank by gravity. Should this be occurring, have the tank pumped and check the siphon openings to see if they are plugged. Effluent Filter: To inspect the effluent filter, remove the manhole cover at the outlet end of the tank. However, there should not be a scum layer or sediments inside the tank. Check to see if the water level markings are consistent on the side of the tank. High water indicates that the effluent filter is not operating properly. If the water level is near the top, remove the filter cartridge using the filter cartridge handle. Keeping the filter in the septic tank, spray the filter with water until clean. Replace the filter into the effluent tee. Filter Mound or Trench: Check the observation tubes regularly. Standing water near the same elevation as the natural soil surface (or higher) may be an indication of trouble. Look for seepage or excessive wetness near the base of the filter mound or trench area. SUMMARY A general inspection of the septic tank, dosing tank (or pump station), filter mound or trench area should be made each year. These inspections are best made during the wet season of the year. If these items are not routinely inspected, solids can carry over into the disposal areas from the septic tank and clog the system resulting in system failure and health hazard risks. In areas with potentially high ground water, the septic tank should be pumped during low water months such as September, October, and November. Pumping during high water months may cause the septic tank to float out of the ground. I.S.D.S.
