Do You Part Be Septic Smart!

Do You Part Be Septic Smart! is a campaign by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to educate homeowners about proper septic system care and maintenance. Septic systems are underground wastewater treatment systems that can protect public health and the environment if they are well-designed, installed, and maintained. However, if they are neglected or misused, they can cause pollution, disease outbreaks, and costly repairs. The campaign provides tips and resources on how to prevent septic system failures and protect your home and community.
