Three reasons why you should care about Michigan's septic codes:
1] We don't HAVE a statewide septic code, and we are the only state that doesn't standardize how wastewater from our toilets gets treated. That's a problem.
2] When septic systems fail, they leach raw sewage into our lakes, rivers, and streams, threatening our drinking water and the health of our surrounding communities.
3] There are an estimated 330,000 outdated, failing septic systems across our state. We need updated septic codes to protect us and ensure we have clean, safe water.
