Onsite Wastewater Treatment Survey and Assessment

This Onsite Wastewater Treatment Survey and Assessment document, sponsored by the State Department of Health (DOH) and the CZM Program, provides information on the capabilities and limitations of onsite wastewater systems, as well as factors to consider in the selection of an appropriate onsite wastewater system for a given site in Hawaii. This information is intended to promote effective wastewater treatment in rural settings so that ground and surface water resources, coastal water quality, and coastal habitats are protected from wastewater contamination.
