Latest version.
(A) Repair required. The owner or occupant of any property on which a noncomplying or failing SSTS is located shall upgrade, repair, replace or discontinue the use of the SSTS in accordance with the requirements of Minnesota Rules, Chapter 7080 or 7081 as applicable and the notice of noncompliance. Any noncomplying or failing SSTS from which discharge or sewage can be contained within the property the SSTS serves and is not an imminent threat to public health or safety shall be corrected within 300 days, ten months, of the date of service of the notice of noncompliance.
(B) Correction of system. Any noncomplying or failing SSTS from which discharged sewage cannot be contained within the property the SSTS serves or that poses an imminent threat to the public health and safety, shall be corrected within 30 days of service of the notice of noncompliance unless weather conditions prevent correction within 30 days in which case the owner or occupant shall implement temporary corrective measures (such as regular pumping of the SSTS) and complete permanent corrective measures as soon as physically feasible, but in no case later than 300 days, ten months immediately following the date of service of the notice of non-compliance, whichever is longer.
(C) Second inspection. Upon the repair, upgrade, replacement or discontinuance of the use of the SSTS as directed in the notice of non-compliance, a second compliance inspection must be completed within 30 days of the repair, upgrade, replacement or discontinuance and a certificate of compliance must be filed with the city within ten days of the inspection. If the owner or occupant fails to comply with this section, the use of the SSTS must be discontinued immediately.
