Sewage Disposal Permit Waivers

This office recommends that prior to any development of vacant land a comprehensive site plan be established as to the placement of buildings and infrastructures including the well and wastewater disposal systems serving the property. With this being noted this office also recognizes that not all properties that are developed need potable water and wastewater disposal systems to serve them. As a result the requirement to submit an Application for Sewage Disposal Permit and subsequent percolation test may be waived by completing the following Click Here.
