Minden Hills said it will start its annual septic re-inspection program in May “to ensure the protection of our local environment and water quality.”
The township is hosting a public information session about the program April 7 at 6:30 p.m. at the S.G. Nesbitt Memorial Arena (55 Parkside St., Minden). It is for Zones D1 and D2, which can be found on a map at mindenhills.ca/septic reinspection.
The township said inspectors will conduct on-site visual assessments of sewage systems to identify potential malfunctions or environmental risks between May and October. Affected property owners will receive a detailed notice by mail prior to the inspection.
They are asking homeowners to ensure their system components (tank and leaching bed) are accessible and the questionnaire is returned to the septic re-inspection program email as soon as possible. These questionnaires must be returned prior to the inspection date. They
will be included in the package mailed to property owners in this year’s inspection zone.
