There is no other book available on this subject that is as current or exhaustive including key elements required to install, inspect, maintain, repair, and replace private water and sewage supplies. Laced throughout is code commentary based on the most current International Code pertaining to septic systems (International Private Sewage Disposal Code). Current standards from the American Water Works will be offered including Water Wells - A100-97 and Disinfection of Wells - C 654-97.
