Wasatch County's Wastewater program is designed to help protect public health and environmental quality by ensuring the proper and effective disposal of onsite wastewater from structures not directly connected to a public sewer system. Our goal is to provide property owners with information regarding the proper location, installation and maintenance of an onsite wastewater system. WCHD maintains many "as built" parcel drawing for those residents who cannot connect to the sewer system. However, not all sites are availabe on record, for those sites the Health Department offers electonic detections service for $85.
In addition, we conduct site assessments for all new proposed systems, permit all new and replacement systems, review septic designs and inspect all system installations to ensure public health is protected with as minimal impact on the environment as possible, and in compliance to all applicable regulations.
