(B) In areas that are not to be served by sewer systems, on-site sewage disposal systems utilizing septic tank and soil absorption fields will be permitted only where soil borings and percolation tests indicate the systems will function adequately. Disposal systems shall be constructed to meet the requirements of the Minnesota Department of Health, the standards set out in § 153.075 , and other state and local requirements.

(D) Plans for private sewage disposal systems not utilizing septic tank and soil absorption fields as specified in division (C), shall be approved in writing by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency or Minnesota Department of Health.
