Some properties within our municipality are un - sewered.

If you are planning to build on property that is un - sewered you will need to install an On - site Wastewater Management System (OWMS) previously called septic tank systems to provide sewerage to the home.

To do this you will need to obtain a permit to install or alter an OWMS and permission to use the system.

These permits are issued under delegation from the Environment Protection Authority.
