Bill Summary

AN ACT Relating to on-site wastewater treatment system 2 inspections; and amending RCW 70A.105.110. 3

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law concerning on-site wastewater treatment system inspections, which are systems used to treat sewage on a property when a public sewer system is not available. Specifically, it modifies the requirements for individuals who inspect or review these systems. Previously, non-certified individuals could only conduct such reviews for a maximum of two years after being hired, provided a certified individual supervised their work. This bill extends that period to a maximum of four years after hire, still requiring supervision by a certified individual. The bill also clarifies that a certificate of competency from the state board of registration for professional engineers and land surveyors is sufficient proof of an individual's competence in the engineering aspects of these systems.
