Hey Rhonda. I did look at that western neighbor McKaig and anchored it into my cad file. Yes it's
100 + from the applicants parcel and upgradient. It's right up close to the southern side of
home. I didn't see any signs of surface water sources either. If you drove out there you'd clearly
see it's up gradient and I believe 150'+\- from parcel.
I hope this email suffices, as I don't have access to my PC for a couple weeks. You are welcome
to add a note yourself and put "per designer" or something. Or just attach this email to your
scanned copy.
Thank you!

Hey Alex,
I am reviewing the Zane Vanderwal application at 60 E Lexington P1(421257690043). I am good with this
proposal, but I know management wants to see some depiction on the site plan of the 200ft
downgradient of the primary drainfield without surface water or wells. I see the downgradient well on the
lot to the north that is over 200ft away but it looks like the 200ft downgradient of the drainfield actually
extends onto the property to the west.Would you be able to provide an updated site plan showing this?
Or even just add a note on the site plan that tells us you looked on that parcel for their well or any surface
water?
Thanks,
Rhonda Thompson, RS
