Mandatory Septic Inspections

Mandatory Septic Inspections

In December of 2017 Dysart Council passed a bylaw making the inspection of septic systems on all properties near a shoreline mandatory.

Property owners on both of the Kennisis Lakes must have the prescribed inspections completed by an approved inspector prior to the end of 2019.  Failure to complete the inspection prior to the deadline could result in penalties and additional costs to the property owner.

With nearly 700 septic systems remaining to be inspected during the spring, summer and fall of 2019 the KLCOA encourages all property owners to get their inspection booked as soon as possible.  There is no good excuse for not doing your part in helping protect the quality of our lake water.
