Question or
Concern: How did the managed septic system come about and what is
the future of the program?
|
Why
was the managed septic system required for the
Manchester and Spring Lake Basin areas? |
-
Charlotte County removed the fallen Manchester
Waterway Lock doors and then petitioned the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection (FL DEP) for
a permit to remove the rest of the Manchester
Waterway Boat Lock .
-
On June 29, 2007, the FL DEP issued a
permit (#08-0210682-001)(.pdf / 7.65mb) allowing
the Lock to be dismantled with a series of
conditions, one of which was the Charlotte County
Health Department would develop and administer a
program that would regularly service and inspect
properties in the Manchester Waterway (Manchester
and Spring Lake) until the property was placed on
central sewer.
-
On August 28, 2007, the Charlotte County Board of
County Commissioners passed
County Ordinance (#2007-061) (.pdf / 50kb) to
comply with FL DEP’s Lock permit.
|
|
Will the
Managed Septic Systems Program be expanding into other parts
of the county? |
-
This will be a decision by the Charlotte County Board of
County Commissioners.
|
|
What
does this mean for sewer systems in the future? |
-
Any decision to expand central sewer systems will be
made by the utility system that serves that particular
area.
