Can VDH answer these questions?
1. In the past 12 years how many chamber system drainfields were installed in Virginia and how many of those failed?
2. In the past 12 years how many gravel system drainfields were installed in Virginia and how many of those failed?
3. How many practicing OSEs vs. chamber system manufacturers were on the TAC committee?
4. Why are there so many private sector OSEs who will not allow a reduction for chambers?
5. Why are there so many private sector OSEs who will not allow the use of chambers at all?
6. Why has all the negative anecdotal evidence regarding chambers been ignored?
7. Why does this regulation discriminate againsts gravel manufacturers?
Gravel has proven to be an excellent product. Please level the playing field and give the gravel manufacturers the same reduction.
