Sewage Programs
Home Sewage Treatment Systems
Where public or central sewage works are not provided, as in predominantly rural areas, individual sewage treatment systems must be installed with approval by the health department. Wastewater systems installed under health department approval must comply with stringent state regulations; the health department must ensure that no nuisances are allowed to endanger the health and well-being of the citizens of Perry County.
