Septic Tank and Disposal Systems Survey, September, 2022

The Village of Keremeos conducted a September, 2022 survey of the performance of septic tank and field disposal systems in the areas of the village not yet served by community sewers. The purpose of the survey was to understand the extent of problems being experienced by some septic users, and the costs borne by community members for repairs and maintenance of their septic systems. From survey information, the Village will develop and share resources to help support septic system users in maintaining their systems.

Results from the questionnaire have been summarized for an internal report to satisfy condition 2.14 of the Village’s new operational certificate for wastewater treatment.
