Section 34-21A-1 Purpose. The Alabama Onsite Wastewater Board is created to examine, license,
and regulate persons engaged in the manufacture, installation, or servicing of onsite sewage
systems in Alabama. As more residences are built in rural areas where public sewer hookups
and centralized sewage treatment systems are often unavailable, many property owners must
rely on onsite sewage systems, such as septic systems, to handle residential waste and sewage.
The improper manufacture, installation, service, cleaning, and maintenance of onsite sewage
equipment and treatment systems can contaminate and pollute the environment and pose significant
harm to public health and the rural environment. This board is created to establish the qualification
levels for those engaged in the manufacture, installation, servicing, or cleaning of onsite
sewage systems and equipment in Alabama and promote the proper manufacture, installation,
and servicing of onsite sewage systems. (Act 99-571, p. 1265,...
