Clark County, WA \u2013 \u00a0\u00a0Do you have a conventional gravity-fed septic system? Did you know Clark County requires you to have your conventional gravity-fed septic system inspected every 3 years? Attending this Well and Septic Workshop will allow you to inspect the system yourself every other time, instead of hiring a professional to do it for you each time. This can save you money. Having your septic system inspected by a professional often costs more than $100. You can save money by getting certified to self-inspect your system in our class which costs $18.00, saving homeowners money. Completing the workshop and a short exam will certify participants to self-inspect their own septic system every other time.<\/p>\n

The workshop is taught by Clark County Public Health and will teach participants how to maintain and inspect their septic systems and safely maintain their well water. \u201cGetting self-inspection certified is also a good long-term investment and participants will learn how to spot problems faster so they can have them fixed rather than looking at a costly system replacement\u201d, says Terry Koper, Small Acreage Program Coordinator.<\/p>\n

This workshop is hosted by the Small Acreage Program of Washington State University Clark County Extension with support from Clark County Public Works Clean Water. To find out about this and other events offered by the Small Acreage Program, visit http:\/\/go.wsu.edu\/smallacreage<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Scholarships are available if registration costs are a barrier to attend. WSU Extension programs and employment are available to all without discrimination. Persons requiring special accommodations should call WSU Clark County Extension at (564) 397-5729 prior to the event.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
