Does Everyone Need Operation & Maintenance?

The Kitsap County Board of Health adopted the Bremerton-Kitsap County Board of Health Ordinance No. 1995-12 RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR THE OPERATION & MAINTENANCE OF ON-SITE SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEMS in 1996.

In summary, the regulations require property owners be responsible for ensuring that their onsite sewage system have the appropriate Operation & Maintenance.  

For owners of alternative on-site sewage systems, the regualtion requires that property owners obtain a contract with a certified maintenance specialist to do the Operation & Maintenance (see Section 6.B. of the Bremerton-Kitsap County Board of Health Ordinance No. 1995-12 RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR THE OPERATION & MAINTENANCE OF ON-SITE SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEMS).
