This site has been designed to help provide information for individuals and businesses wanting to learn more about the current Septic Systems regulations in British Columbia. 
The Septic Systems regulations have undergone substantial changes since May 2005, and the links below will provide a considerable amount of information relating to all aspects of the current framework. Please visit the ASTTBC website, and the British Columbia Ministry of Health website for more in depth information.
For those looking for a bit of basic information concerning Septic Systems in British Columbia, the following may serve as a starting point.
If you are considering development on a property that does not have some form of centralized Septic available, the first step in the process should be to contact an authorized person and arrange for test pits and percolation / permeameter tests. While some companies may advertise Septic or Septic Tank, engaging the services of an ROWP gives assurance of adherence to current regulatory standards. The ROWP will log the site information, and this, coupled with information about the planned use including number of bedrooms and square footage, will form the basis of the design required to plan and price out a septic system for the property.
