ADMINISTRATIVE COMPLAINT
FAILURE TO ABATE SANITARY NUISANCE
__ EAILURE TO ABATE SANITARY NUISANCE
FAILURE TO REPAIR FAILED SEPTIC SYSTEMS
EEE SYSTEMS
NATURE OF THE CASE
1. This case arises from Respondent's failure to correct sanitary nuisances of
human. waste and fecal matter pooling on the ground of failed septic systems. This is an-
. administrative action to demand Respondent correct and repair said systems in its licensed
mobile home park as per the requirements of Chapters 381 and 513 Florida Statutes, ,
2. This is.also an administrative action for the imposition of cumulative per diem
administrative fines as authorized in Chapters 381, 386 and 51 3, Florida Statutes, which allows a
fine of $500 for each violation and for each day the violation continues.
“3. Moreover, this case arises from Respondent failing to comply with a
Settlement Agreement as to repairs of failing septic systems, continuing to allow human waste
and raw sewage to pool on the ground surface on multiple lots and therefore failing to maintain
the minimum standards set forth by the Florida Statutes and F lorida Administrative Code
regulating the operation and sanitary standards for a licensed mobile home park.

as defined in Chapter 513 Florida Statutes.
6. On 7/11/08, Lot 6, the Department investigated a sanitary nuisance of fecal
effluent flowing on the ground from a failed septic system. The Respondent was ordered to abate
the sanitary nuisance on 7/12/08. On the repeat inspection on 7/15/08, it revealed no action had
been taken to clean or abate the fecal matter on the ground. The referenced citation is hereby
attached and incorporated as composite Exhibit “A”. This is an ongoing violation which the

to abate the sanitary nuisance on 7/12/08. Respondent failed to résolve the situation on the repeat
inspection on 7/15/08. Voice messages left for agents of property. By 7/22/08 a reinspection
showed the drain field of Lot 52 had been dug up and the area limed. On 7/29/08 another
recheck revealed Lot 53’s septic tank and drain field was saturated and pooled with waste water.
The.area had been limed but the tank was not pumped. Strong odors of sewage directed the
department inspector to a trench that had been dug to redirect wastewater to under a trailer. The
referenced citation is hereby attached and incorporated as- composite Exhibit “B”. This is an
ongoing Violation which the Respondent has refused to correct and the Respondent is in violation
of Chapters 381, 386 and 513 Florida Statutes, and Chapters 64E-6 and 15 Florida
Administrative Code. The Department hereby imposes a Five Hundred Dollar Fine ($500.00) for

9. On 10/13/08, Lot 64, the Department investigated a sanitary nuisance of fecal
effluent flowing on the ground from a failed septic system. The Respondent was ordered to abate
the sanitary nuisance immediately. It was discovered Respondent had not adhered to a pump out
schedule to forestall repeat overflows. Instead, Respondent waited for the Sanitary nuisance to
occur before pumping out the tanks. The referenced citation is hereby attached and incorporated
as composite Exhibit —, This is an ongoing violation which the Respondent has refused to
correct and the Respondent is in violation of Chapters 381, 386 and 513 Florida Statutes, and
Chapiers 64E-6 and 15 Florida Administrative Code. The Department hereby imposes a One
Thousand Dollar Fine ($1000.00) for this violation of law.
10. On'10/21/08, Lot 57, the Department investigated a sanitary nuisance of
human waste pooled at ground surface, Again, the Respondent failed to do daily checks to
ensure all septic systems were operating in a sanitary manner. Instead, Respondent waited for
the sanitary nuisance to occur before pumping out the tanks. The referenced citation is hereby
attached and incorporated as composite Exhibit “E”. This is an ongoing violation which the

12. Ongoing during the above time period of continuing sanitary nuisances, the
Department was working with Respondent to explore if sewer hook-up would be mandated by
the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority or if Respondent would elect for sewer hookup instead of
repair of septic systems.
13. Emails and letters confirm that because of annexation issues the Utilities
Authority could not mandate sewer hook up and more so Respondent elected not hook up to
sanitary sewer service.
14. The Department and Respondent entered into a Settlement Agreement on or
about December 12, 2008. The referenced Agreement is hereby attached and incorporated as
composite Exhibit “G”,
15. Said Agreement allowed the Respondent to renew its mobile home park
