Dear Rick and Tina Mazzaferro,
On C)ct�ber �0, 2008, I attempted to reach you by telephone regard.ing �our Singulair
Innovative/Alternative {I/A) septic system. I left a message asking you to call me and to date have
received no response from you. '
We have been informed by Siegmund Environmental Services, your last service provider of
record,that your operation and maintenance contract with them for your Singulair system expired or was
cancelled on or about February 1, 2004.
I am writing to remind you that the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection
(MA DEP) and the Town of Yarmouth require you to keep an operation and maintenance (O&M)
contract in effect at a11 times for your system. These requirements may be found on the MA DEP
website at:

My department oversees UA septic system management and compliance efforts for the Board of
Health in your town. We are authorized by your Board of Health to contact you to inform you of the
above requirement and to request your compliance. Accordingly, please forward a copy of a signed
contract via mail, fax or e-mail within fifteen (15) days of receipt of this letter. For your '.
convenience, I am enclosing a list of wastewater operators we are awaze of that do business in
Barnsta.ble County. 'The firms listed operate multiple types of UA technologies and are not associated
with any particular technology or vendor.
Please be advised that if you do not respond within 15 days of your receipt of this letter, I will
refer your property to the Board of Health far further enforcement action.
