Sewage waste back-up in showers/tubs/toilets

On November 21 I reported a Sewage Waste back-up in my showers/tubs/toilets to the Mgmt of the Mobile Home Park. Kay Vanderburg (Mgmt) instructed that I had to call a plumber to assess if the back-up was due to my pipes in home being clogged or if it was from the sewage pipes on the property of the Lot I rent for the Mobile Home I am Leasing to own. According to her if the back up is due to defective sewer lines on my rented Lot then the Mobile Home Park is responsible for the repairs & clean up, If the pipes are clogged from inside the home then it is the homeowners responsibility for the repairs & clean up. So I called Rooter-Man Plumbing & on Friday November 23 they came to my address & discovered that I have a defective Sewer Line on my rented Lot. They flushed my indoor pipes to relieve the back up of Sewage Waste from overflowing into my showers/tubs/toilets. The Sewage Waste overflow spilled from the overflow pipes within a foot of my home onto the soil/yard, causing contamination of my soil in my yard as well as my water hose & outside pipes to Sewer Overflow outlet. I reported to my landlord that they were responsible to repair the damaged Sewer Pipes on my rented Lot. I was already contaminated inside my home from the Sewage Waste backing up into my showers/tubs. I am disabled & have multiple health problems one being a lowered immune system. So, I requested that the Mgmt respond immediately to remedy the Health Risks of the Sewage Spill contamination. I was 6 days without indoor plumbing, & had to resort to a make shift Porta-Potty to use the bathroom in. I was unable to bathe for the 6 days due to the neglect of the Mgmt to make the necessary repairs of the Sewage Waste backing up in my home. This was very unsanitary & a great Health Risk to me as a Disabled person. I was forced to leave my home for Health reasons to make it safe for me to be sanitary. After my plumber flushed my pipes to clear up the Sewage Waste backing up in my home, I returned & again notified the landlord as well as the Owners of the property that they needed to send someone out to clean up the Sewage Waste in my yard as well as make the repairs to the Sewage Pipes to avoid any future back ups of Raw Sewage leaking into or around my home. They sent unlicensed plumbers whom dug two holes in my yard, that were unnecessary due to the fact they did not have the right equipment to locate the damaged Sewer Lines & make the proper repairs. Also, when they covered the holes they dug, they turned the soil to only cover the toxic sewage waste that had spilled in my yard.instead of properly cleaning up the Waste. This only multiplied the problem. Their plumbers just covered the holes they dug & stated that they did not have the proper equipment to locate the defective Sewer Lines. Later today Monday November 26th Kay Vanderburg & her daughter came to my home & took pictures of the Sewer Waste in my yard as well as the loosely covered dirt & contaminated soil left on my property. She yelled at me & said that I had no right to have my plumber use a snake with a camera to locate the defective Sewer Lines on my rented Lot. At which I told her she was the one that forced me to call a plumber to remedy my Sewage back up issue. That now it was up to her to remedy the issue & clean up the Sewage Spill, to make my Lot & home Environmentally Safe to live for myself as well as my neighbors. She basically threatened me & told me she would not have the owners reimburse me the $175 that I had to pay a plumber to unclog my Sewage Waste back up. She left & her daughter returned to take more pictures & I told her not to come back until she had a licensed plumber come to make the repairs & clean up the Environmental Hazard that was still threatening my Health & Well being. Please advise me to whom I may contact to report this Hazardous Waste in my yard as well as how I force the Mgmt/Owners to take responsibility in making the necessary repairs to avoid future problems with my Sewer Lines backing up on me again, causing distress to me as well as further Health concerns. Thank-you Julie Morgan-Addington
