Prior to construction or repair of an on-site sewage system (septic system), the property owner is required to obtain a permit from the Environmental Health Office. The size of the system is determined by factors such as soil types and the number of bedrooms in the house. In all cases, a soil test is needed to determine the area of the absorption field. Any work performed on a septic system must receive prior approval before the work begins.
