Define the project
- New construction, replacement, repair, or alteration
- Residential or other property use and expected wastewater demand
- Known structures, wells, utilities, easements, and existing system
- Desired timeline and related building or sale deadlines
Start with records, not assumptions
Gather existing permits, site plans, surveys, system records, repair history, and property plans. Missing records do not establish that a site is buildable or that a particular system type is appropriate.
A provider or designer may need additional site information before offering a meaningful construction proposal.
