It is important for homeowners and tenants to know where the components of their septic system are located so they can avoid damaging their investment. Knowing where the septic tank and drainfield are also makes it much easier to maintain the system properly.
'As-Built' Record Drawing
https://www.clallamcountywa.g
An important part of the septic permit process is an 'as-built' or record drawing (see example below). This is a drawing produced by a licensed engineer of how the septic system was actually installed. Sometimes unexpected conditions on a site require a system to be installed differently than it was designed. An accurate record of the system is required.
Environmental Health Services On-site Program has as-builts available for most of the septic systems that have been installed in Clallam County, depending on when the system was installed. As-builts are available from as early as 1968, but systems installed since the mid-1980s are most likely to have accurate as-builts available.
