What to file
The MA Title 5 inspection report under 310 CMR 15.301 is a standardized MassDEP form. It must include: inspector identity + NEIWPCC certification, system age, septic tank construction details and condition, distribution box static-liquid level, soil absorption system observations, water-use history, failure indicators (effluent breakout, backups, ponding, soil saturation, system failure), inspector attestation, and a certification result (Pass / Conditional Pass / Further Evaluation / Fail).
Common rejection reasons
- Illegible handwriting or scanned PDF quality below readable threshold.
- Missing inspector attestation under 310 CMR 15.302.
- D-box static-liquid level not reported.
- Effluent breakout location not described in narrative.
- Failure indicators ticked but inconsistent with the certification result.
