Opinions Wanted!
If you own a home, in Auglaize County, that has it's own sewage system, we are looking for your input. There is an Ohio requirement that all household sewage systems have an Operation and Maintenance permit. This means that there needs to be an active permit at all times each house is occupied. It would have to be renewed periodically to utilize the sewage system. We want to make this program beneficial, while ensuring it is cost effective and minimally invasive. At this time, we want your opinion about how the program will be designed.
Please take the time to enter your opinions on this topic. Paper copies are available, but to keep costs as low as possible, please consider the following link.

The Environmental Health Division promotes Public Health by addressing the environmental factors that can adversely affect human health. The primary role of the environmental staff is to prevent human illness or injury through public education, regulation and advocacy. While responding to public health concerns is a function of the environmental division, the majority of our effort is directed towards education, and disease and accident prevention.
Environmental Health inspections and investigations are conducted by Registered Environmental Health Specialists (REHS), as required by Ohio Revised Code Chapter 4736. A REHS is a professional who performs educational, investigational, technical, or administrative duties requiring specialized knowledge and skills in the field of environmental health science. In order to achieve REHS status, one must first complete a four-year college degree with
emphasis in science.
