What happens to my septic system after I connect to sewer?
- The Connection to Public Sewer Regulations (22 GAR §25111) requires that the septic system be properly abandoned. This will be a part of your permit requirements for connection to public sewer. Proper abandonment requires having the contents of your septic tank pumped out by a plumbing contractor and filled completely with earth, sand, gravel or other similar material as approved by GEPA.
