Septic Tank Seal Registration

Overview

Septic Tank Registration Seal Fees are required by any person/company who obtains a small sewage disposal installation permit.

The owner of the deptic system is required to pay a $30.00 registration fee for each tank in the system and to complete the septic tank registration form found in the Septic Systems Registration Fees pamphlet. DWWM collects the fees and registration forms. After submitting the payment and the complete registration form, the tank owner is responsible for purchasing the seal and ensuring that it is attached to the Small Sewage Disposal permit within 60 days of receipt from the county health department. County health departments do not issue the seals. The seals are valid for the life of the tanks.
