Safety and sanitation isn’t just important. It saves lives.
Safe and sanitary design and management of sewage systems, drinking water systems, geothermal systems, swimming pools and beach areas is vital to the health of our community. Each can be a risk to human life if codes and ordinances are violated. In this section you’ll find the information you need to design, build, manage and maintain your system in compliance with health safety laws.
If you have questions, contact the Environmental Health Division at (309) 888-5482.
