Septic System Education is FREE!  Septic System Ignorance is EXPENSIVE!

OLYMPIA --Each year, septic workshops are offered to help homeowners protect their investments while protecting the environment and public health.  Pumping the septic tank regularly, conserving water, and not using additives and garbage disposals will help you maintain your septic system properly.  To learn more about your septic investment and its connection to environmental and public health, come to a free workshop.  Workshops are free to the public and include a coupon for $10 off your next septic system inspection. You have the opportunity to talk with septic experts to receive personalized advice regarding the care and maintenance of your septic system.  To register for a workshop, please call (360) 754-4111, TDD line, (360) 754-4348.  For specific questions about your septic system you can call the Septic Help Line at (360) 357-2490.
