ON-LOT SEWAGE SYSTEMS UPDATE

The Department of Environmental Protection has historically approved certain alternate and experimental on-lot sewage systems for new development.  However, the DEP is concerned that specific system technologies are not operating correctly.  Therefore, certain technologies approved in the past may not be approved now.  The PBA staff has offered to work with the DEP to supply scientific data that supports the use of a wide variety of on-lot technologies.  For more information contact Keith Ashley at (800)692-7339 ext
