If you change your approved septic system, you will need to obtain Central Public Health approval &

Pay Russ fee to assist you with the septic permitting application process plus a separate fee to dig and back fill a 10-11’ hole for soil sample analysis.

Russ submits your septic permit request to UT Central Public Health, Nephi UT for approval. You can order your tank in advance of permit approval.
