Did you know that as a homeowner you’re responsible for maintaining your septic system? Did you know that maintaining your septic system protects your investment in your home? Did you know that you should periodically inspect your system and pump out your septic tank?
If properly designed, constructed and maintained, your septic system can provide long-term, effective treatment of household wastewater. If your septic system isn’t maintained, you might need to replace it, costing you thousands of dollars. A malfunctioning system can contaminate groundwater that might be a source of drinking water. And if you sell your home, your septic system must be in good working order.
A seminar will be conducted by Rick Fehr, Chief of Environmental Health, Fayette County Health Department to help you understand how your system works and what steps you can take as a homeowner to ensure your system will work properly. The seminar is free to the public and will be held in the Public Meeting Room of the Fayette County Administrative Complex, 140 Stonewall Avenue West, Fayetteville, at 7:00 PM Tuesday November 14th. All are invited to attend.
