The California State Water Resources Control Board has recently adopted a new Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS, otherwise known as septic) policy that requires local agencies to become certified by the State in order to continue to implementing their OWTS program.
The Alameda County Department of Environmental Health's Land Use Program staff will present an update on the Onsite Wastewater Treatment Program in Alameda County and its potential implications to residents and business owners with septic systems. This program is hosted by Supervisor Miley.

You are invited to attend a Zone 7 presentation on our draft Nutrient Management Plan (NMP) for the Livermore Valley Groundwater Basin, where staff will review the proposed changes made since last year's stakeholder meeting. At this meeting, we will also review and discuss the proposed permitting criteria for new onsite wastewater treatment systems (OWTS, i.e. septic systems) for the Buena Vista, Mines Road, Greenville, and May School groundwater high nitrate Areas of Concern. There will also be ample opportunity for the attendees to ask questions about the contents of the draft NMP and the wastewater management strategies proposed in the plan.
