Default Re: Septic Required!!

Go to a primary source - which means straight to county. Even draftsman and architects can have it wrong. Ask if any composting toilets are accepted (a few usually are if they are used in conjuction with an engineered gray water system). Ask if gray water systems are allowed and ask for the name of someone local that can help you design what they need to see for that. Finally, ask about acceptable septic alternatives. Things like the Watson Wick, or certain cesspool set ups, etc. Primary sources are key. The only other type of professional that I'd trust as a primary source on this is a local, well reputed, licensed, wastewater engineer. Keep us posted! Good luck and Aloha.
