RE: Operation and Maintenance Contract for the Innovative/Alternative Septic System Installed at 519 Station
Avenue in the town of Yarmouth.
Dear Davenport Realty Trust,
Our records indicate that the operation and maintenance contract with Coastal Engineering, Co. Inc. for your
innovative/alternative wastewater treatment system may have expired or was canceled as of June 18th, 2021.
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 all times for your system.
Information about these requirements may be found at https://septic.barnstablecountyhealth.org. You can access the list of
wastewater operators of whom we are aware do business in Barnstable County. This septic database also provides further
explanation about your I/A septic system, as well as any sample and inspection history for the performance of your system,
as entered by previous service providers.
My department oversees I/A 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 have enclosed a list of wastewater operators we are aware of that do business in Barnstable
County. The firms listed operate multiple types of I/A technologies and are not associated with any particular technology or
vendor.
Please be advised that if you do not respond within fifteen (15) days of your receipt of this letter by forwarding a copy of a
signed contract, you may be referred to the Yarmouth Board of Health for further enforcement action.
