Lake Herman Sanitary District

A written permit is required from the District before commencing the construction of a wastewater treatment system and subject to the following provisions:

1. The permit for construction of a wastewater treatment system is hereby designated as a "Class A Sewer Permit".
2. Before commencing the construction of a wastewater treatment system, the owner or his agent shall first obtain a written permit, issued pursuant to application on the proper form as elsewhere provided for in this Ordinance, signed by the District; and,
3. A permit and inspection fee of $50.00 shall be paid to the District at the same time such application is filed with the District and before any such application may be acted upon or any permit issued therefore.
4. The issuance of the permit shall authorize the applicant to proceed with the construction of the system but does not authorize any connection with or to the building sewer until the installation of the wastewater treatment has been completed to the satisfaction of the District.
5. The District shall be allowed to inspect all phases of the work at any stage of construction and, in any event, the applicant for the permit shall notify the District when the work is ready for final inspection and before any underground portions are covered. The inspection by the District shall be made within twenty-four hours after receipt of the notice by him and shall include an inspection of the underground portions, septic tank or tanks, distribution box, absorption field, and all other parts and phase of the system.
6. No permit shall be issued for any wastewater treatment system employing subsurface soil absorption facilities where the area of the lot is less than 20,000 square feet. The requirements of this section do not apply where wastewater is emptied into a holding tank as approved by the District.
