HURON-KINLOSS COMMUNITY SEPTIC INSPECTION PROGRAM IS UNDERWAY

The Township of Huron-Kinloss continues to take the lead in Ontario with its initiative to preserve the natural environment and improve water quality through the Community Septic Inspection (HK-CSI) program. The program was recognized with a "Success Story" award, presented at the State of the Lakes Ecosystem (SOLEC) Conference last fall. 

The Huron-Kinloss Community Septic Inspection Program is a mandatory program administered by B.M. Ross and Associates Limited, and is currently in its sixth (6^th) year of operation.  Over 70% of the Townships septic systems have now been inspected.

Every property in the Township with a septic system (including holding tanks, pit privies/outhouses) will be required to be inspected.  The program which began in 2007 is carried out in different areas of the township each year with owners notified by mail.  Property owners do not have to wait to receive a letter to book an appointment.  Owners who have received a letter in the past and have put off their inspection are encouraged to book an appointment.   

Inspection appointments can be made this year Monday-Thursday, 9:00 am - 1:00 pm.  Some evening and Saturday appointments are available.

Property owners are responsible for booking an inspection appointment by calling the Huron-Kinloss Township office at (519)395-3735, Monday to Friday, 8:30 am – 4:30 pm.
