Subject: 102 Fern

Problem:
Other

Location of Concern:
At a Home

Nearest physical street address of concern:
6 Timber Ridge in Timber Ridge Development off of Old Highway 11

Description of Violation:
The septic system at the home of Bennie and Denise Dobbins of 6 Timber Ridge has been overflowing for possibly a couple of weeks. Mr. Breland, the manager of the septic/sewer system for the development has contacted the owner at least twice. Apparently the cost of a new pump on the septic tank is $2500 and the owner says he does not have the money. The septic tank has standing water in the Dobbins backyard, and also water is flowing into our vegetable/fruit garden and in our front yard as well, creating standing water which smells, and is breeding e-coli bacteria from the sewage of the 7 persons living in the Dobbins home. We are very concerned about the health impact and contamination of the land and possible infection of pets and humans in these two yards. The Dobbins have been good neighbors in the past, and we are sorry they are having financial problems, and we are at a loss as to how to resolve this problem quickly and peaceably. We are concerned, and must note that the sheriff came out to their house a month ago for an unrelated domestic problem, possibly involving a gun. So we advise diplomacy in their stressful situation. However, this septic health hazard needs to be addressed now, as soon as possible. I hope that your agency is able to resolve this situation very soon.
