Certified Installer Program

The Environmental Complaints and Local Services Division (ECLS) has administered the Certified Installer Program since November 1, 1998. This program certifies septic system installers to inspect their own installations. The installers can install a system, perform the inspection, complete the final backfill and grading and leave the site without a DEQ inspection.

Individuals may become certified for types of systems. The systems are conventional/shallow extended/evapotranspiration-absorption (CSE), lagoons, low pressure dosing, aerobic treatment with spray irrigation, and aerobic treatment with drip irrigation.
