Location: Online Event
View/Download Presentation Slides Description: Join us for a 1-hour webinar providing tips for troubleshooting, common problems and solutions, types of chemicals and materials that can disrupt function, FOG (fats, oils, grease) problems, and what not to flush. It is important to understand the manner in which onsite wastewater systems can encounter problems so that the owner/operator can determine the cause of the issue as well as what corrective measures need to be taken. As a result of troubleshooting, an owner/operator can resolve an issue as well as make individual habit changes to prevent/reduce future issues.
By the conclusion of this webinar,  attendees will be able to perform the following:
  • Know and understand the basic components of an onsite wastewater system.
  • Explain how certain actions can impact the different components of an onsite wastewater system.
  • Explain how poorly functioning onsite systems can have an adverse effect on the landscape and negatively impact water quality.
  • Describe the impact that poor treatment and discharge can have on adjacent private wells and ground water.
Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your understanding and take your knowledge to the next level!
