                 8 Maintenance
                 Homeowners have a responsibility to ensure the onsite wastewater treatment and effluent
                 disposal system is maintained and serviced.

                 The following servicing and precautions are to be undertaken:

                 •     Septic tanks to be checked annually and pumped out when 1/3 full of solids or once every
                       5 years, whichever is sooner
                 •     Read and follow the Owner's Manual that is provided with the system
                 •     Comply with local authority’s servicing requirements
                 •     Do not manipulate the system so that it no longer complies with the Council issued permit
                       or the plans located in Appendix A of this document
                 •     Maintain the land application area e.g. regularly mowed and ensure that there is no
                       ponding of effluent
                 •     Vehicles, animals and general access to the land application area is to be generally
                       restricted with warning signs erected
                 •     Use low sodium biodegradable soaps and detergents as per the label instructions and no
                       paints, solvents, chemicals, food scraps, fats, oils or any other solids to be disposed of
                       “down the drain”
                 •     It is always good practice to minimise / stagger high wastewater generating activities such
                       as laundry over a full week
                 •     On-site sewage systems are not designed to cope with the flow from garbage grinders
