(A) Purpose and intent. The purpose of the sewage and wastewater treatment and disposal standards shall be to provide minimum standards for, and regulation of, subsurface sewage treatment systems (SSTS) and septage disposal including the proper location, design, construction, operation, maintenance and repair to protect surface water and ground water from contamination by human sewage and waterborne household and commercial waste; to protect the public’s health and safety, and eliminate or prevent the development of public nuisances pursuant to the authority granted under M.S. Ch. 115 and 145A, as they may be amended from time to time, and Minn. Rules Ch. 7080 through 7083, as amended, that may pertain to sewage and wastewater treatment.
(B) General provisions.
(1) Standards adopted by reference. The county hereby adopts, by this reference, Minn. Rules Ch. 7080 and 7081 and M.S. § 115.55, as it may be amended from time to time, along with any future amendments.
(2) License requirements. No person shall engage in the evaluation, inspection, design, installation, construction, alteration, extension, repair, maintenance or pumping of on-site subsurface sewage treatment systems without first obtaining a license to perform such tasks from the state’s Pollution Control Agency, except as provided under Minn. Rules part 7083.0700. Only gravity fed Type I systems can be installed by homeowners.
(3) Permits. No person shall install, alter, repair or extend any SSTS in the county without first applying for and obtaining a permit from the Environmental Health Office (EHO) and at the same time paying a fee as listed in the fee schedule determined by the County Board of Commissioners. Maintaining the system as originally designed and installed is excluded from the previous requirements. A permit is required for the conversion of a septic tank to a holding tank. As needed, operating permits and any associated fees will be required by EHO staff when necessary for proper system operation. Staff will notify the permittee of an incomplete application, when the requirements are met a permit will be issued. Such permit shall be valid for a period of 18 months from the date of issuance. A full design must be submitted before a permit for a new or replacement system is approved. When weather does not allow a full site evaluation to be completed, a design of the worst case scenario shall be submitted. Verification is required when weather permits.
(4) Construction inspections. The permittee shall notify the EHO prior to the completion and covering of the SSTS. The installation and construction of the SSTS shall be in accordance with the permit requirements and application design. Inspections will be made at least once during the construction of the SSTS at such time to assure that the system has been constructed per submitted and approved design.
(a) No part of the system shall be covered until it has been inspected and accepted by the Inspector unless prior arrangements have been made.
(b) Proposals to alter the permitted construction shall be reviewed and the proposed change accepted in writing by both the designer and the EHO.
(c) It shall be the responsibility of the property owner or authorized agent to notify the Inspector on the workday preceding the day inspection is desired.
(d) If proper notice is given and the inspector does not appear for an inspection within two hours after the time is set, the permittee may complete the installation. The permittee shall then file a signed as-built, including photographs of the system prior to covering, with the EHO within five working days. The as-built shall include a certified statement that the work was installed in accordance with submitted design and permit conditions and that it was free from defects.
(e) Upon satisfactory completion of the system, the Inspector shall perform a final inspection. If, upon inspection, the Inspector discovers that any part of the system is not constructed in accordance with the minimum standards provided in this chapter, the Inspector shall give the applicant written notification describing the defects. The applicant shall be responsible for the correction or elimination of all defects, and no system shall be placed or replaced in service until all defects have been corrected or eliminated.
(5) Warranty, guarantee. Neither the issuance of a permit nor the inspection of a system shall constitute any warranty or guarantee of operation of the system.
(6) Permit requests. When either of the following occur the EHO department will review records of the SSTS on the property to determine adequate conformance. Said review may require conformance to Minn. Rules part 7080.2450, subpart 2, and/or require a certification of compliance of the SSTS:
(a) Any time that a permit is applied for in a shoreland management area (1,000 feet of a lake, pond or flowage or 300 feet of a river or stream or the landward extent of a floodplain); or
(b) With the addition of a bedroom on the property.
(7) Separation allowances.
(a) SSTS built after 3-31-1996 or in an SWF area as defined under part Minn. Rules part 7080.1100, subpart 84, shall have three feet vertical separation or a vertical separation based on applicable requirements. Existing systems are allowed up to a 15% reduction from the three-foot required vertical separation distance to account for settling of sand or soil, normal variation of measurement, and interpretations of the limiting layer conditions.
