Description
Property owners that wish to connect to an existing septic system
must visit the WCSC office and make application for
permission.
If
you pass inspection, a "deemed adequate" letter will
be furnished and this is used in lieu of a septic permit for
obtaining your building permit from your municipality.
Note:
The
"deemed adequate" situation is only referring to the
part of the existing system that is exposed and in no way
guarantees that the entire existing system is adequate.
Qualifying
Questions
You must answer "yes" to all of the following
questions in order to apply for permission to connect to an
existing system:
-
Are
you building a new structure on your property and want to
connect to an existing on-lot septic sewage system?
-
Will
the new building produce the same or less sewage flows
than the previously existing building?
