Protect Your Investment — It is typically much cheaper to properly maintain a working septic system than it is to repair or replace a failing septic system.
Protect Community Health — Septic system owners, their neighbors, and the surrounding community run the risk of coming into contact with harmful bacterial and viral pathogens when septic systems are not properly maintained.
Protect Drinking Water — Septic systems that are not working properly can contaminate groundwater sources. More than 70% of all Oregonians are at least partially dependent on groundwater for their drinking water supplies!
Protect Environment — Septic systems that are not working properly can contaminate surface waters, which disrupts natural systems and impairs aquatic and riparian life.
