Permit forfeits
Some property owners may
forfeit permits or written site
approvals for proposed septic
tanks on their property, and
some may not even know that
they have valid permits which
could expire. So reports the
Department of Environmental
Quality (DEQ) which has been
trying to reach holders of
these "prior approval" per
mits. A "prior approval" Is a
septic tank permit or written
approval issued prior to Janu
ary, 1974, which is when the
DEQ. by direction of the legis
lature, assumed responsibility
for the statewide subsurface
sewage disposal program.
These permits expire on
June 30. 1978. unless converted
to a new DEQ subsurface
sewage permit. Since January
1974, a DEQ permit has been
required for construction or
repair of any subsurface sew
age system anywhere in the
state.
The "prior approval" per
mits are expiring because the
slate has upgraded standards
and rules for septic tank and
other subsurface sewage in
stallations to protect public
health and water quality.
When the old permits are
converted, the construction
deadline will be extended to
June 30. 1980.
An earlier deadline for con
version of permits was ex
tended by the Environment!
Quality Commission because
of concern that insufficient
notification had been uJven
property owners. The exten
sion of construction time Is
Intended to deal In a fair way
with those who had obtained
permits and made plans under
the old standards.
Anyone who believes they
may have a permit in the prior
approval category should con
tact their local county sani
tarian or local DEQ office to
determine the status of Iheir
property.
