JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER

602.1 General

Each system shall have a minimum capacity of 75 percent of the area required for a single system. An approved means of alternating waste application shall be provided. A dual system shall be considered as one system.

602.2 Pressure System

A pressure distribution system shall be permitted in place of a conventional or dosing conventional soil absorption system where a site is suitable for a conventional private sewage disposal system. A pressure distribution system shall be approved as an alternative private sewage disposal system where the site is unsuitable for conventional treatment (for sizing and design criteria, see Chapter 7).
