On-site Disposal Systems
On-site disposal systems, called septic systems, are widely used in Alaska. Proper installation and care of these on-site systems by home-owners and contractors is essential to maintaining the health of the system, public health and Alaska’s environment. This program provides training for proper installation of conventional On-site Disposal Systems. The ADEC also has a program that allows a homeowner to install one conventional system to serve that individual's owner-occupied, single-family home or owner-occupied duplex. Please see Approved Homeowner's Program page for additional information.
Alternative on-site disposal systems such as secondary treatment plants or package plants are also common where poor soil or high groundwater conditions do not allow installation of conventional systems. These systems must be designed by an engineer and plans must be reviewed and approved by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation prior to construction. See On-Site Disposal Systems Engineered Plans page for more information.
