Onsite wastewater systems serve as an essential solution to collect, treat, and distribute the wastewater generated by homes or businesses. Typically, these systems include a septic tank and a leach field designed to efficiently disperse the treated wastewater into the ground.

Manufacturers play a crucial role in the development and packaging of new technologies for on-site wastewater systems. Wake County actively collaborates with several manufacturers to inform stakeholders about the latest innovations and products available. These new products serve as an alternative to traditional stone and pipe septic systems.

If you are an engineer, registered environmental health specialist, consultant, licensed soil scientist, installer or work in the profession, make sure to take part in our free, in-person workshop.
