Short Description

The Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) has clarified when and how it will impose sewer connection bans. Sewer connection bans prevent or limit hookups to sewer systems when the systems are over-capacity and are having wastewater violations. Whenever a sewage treatment plan operates over its approved capacity, there is an increased risk of pollution and a greater likelihood of water quality problems.
