Q: Is there a way to live without a septic system? i.e, How does one legally dispose of waste and waste water without one?
Location: Rural, 1 acre of land, water well present, very very small house. How can a Legally achieve what I am trying to do?
A:
A place to start could be to research different types of septic systems (there are a number of alternate designs other than the traditional ones commonly used) and speak with installation contractors. There are also electric incineration systems. This is more of a technical question than a legal question, so it's going to take some research on your part to figure out what will be most ideal for your budget, soil, and design considerations. You will also need to confirm that any system you contemplate will be in compliance with environmental, sanitary and other codes. Good luck
