New Regulation for Homeowners with Aerobic Treatment Units
The Stark County Health Department now requires all homeowners with an aerobic septic system to have a current service contract and maintain a contract for the life of the system. Aerobic systems are highly mechanical systems which utilize oxygen to treat wastewater. Continual maintenance of these types of systems is vital for proper treatment. Please contact a Registered Service Provider to obtain a service contract.
