The Health Officer by issuing a construction permit to repair a private on-site sewage system does not thereby approve of the system nor acknowledge that the system meets all requirements of the county or the Indiana State Department of Health. The Health Officer does recognize that a number of older private on-site sewage systems in the county cannot meet current requirements due to site or system limitations and that proposals for repair must make the best use of the available space and the system and must meet acceptable standards in the interests of public health. Isolation distances will be required to be maintained to wells, seasonal high water tables and the 100-yr flood plain as designated on the FIRM.
