The Township is working with B.M. Ross and Associates Limited (BMROSS) to inspect all the septic systems in Huron-Kinloss. Cycle 1 of the program was completed in 2014. Cycle 2 of this mandatory inspection program started in 2015.
Cycle 2 of the program requires all systems in Huron-Kinloss inspected in
2007 and some of 2008 (under Cycle 1) to be inspected in 2015.
Property owners in Huron-Kinloss are responsible for booking an inspection appointment. To do so, please follow the steps below:
- Call
the Township Office (519) 395-3735
to schedule an appointment.
- Appointments
will be scheduled this year: May 1 – October 31, Monday –Thursday, 9:00 am – 3:00 pm. Evening and Saturday appointments may be
arranged.
- Septic tanks must be pumped-out
prior to the inspection
which is the property owner’s responsibility to arrange.
- to ensure a good visual of the inside of the tank a
pump-out must have occurred within the past 12 months
- the lid to the septic tank must be cleared and
accessible before the inspector arrives
- if the tank has two chambers both lids must be cleared
and pumped for the inspection
- often the pump-out and inspection can be done on the
same day
- Property
owners are encouraged to be present for their inspection.
- The
inspection takes approximately 30-45 minutes.
