In accordance with State Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) regulations, all subdivisions shall be served by approved public water and sewer systems, (if accessible for connection), public water and sewer lateral connection are provided to each lot, or if in the opinion of DHEC, the public’s health and the environment would best be protected by the installation of such systems. Where public sewer is not available, all new lots must meet minimum soil requirements established by DHEC for the installation of an individual on-site wastewater system. This provision shall not be interpreted to require that subdivisions be annexed in order to obtain public water or sewer service. All new lots created are to have a means of wastewater disposal, either by individual wastewater systems or physical sewer lateral connection to each lot.
