A site suitability assessment is used to determine if a septic tank or wastewater treatment system is suitable for the proposed development. If the site is suitable the assessment is use to design the type and size of percolation area / polishing filter. Currently Local Authorities planning conditions required that the site suitability assessment be carried out in accordance with the EPA 2009 Code of Practice guidelines. However the EPA 2009 code of practice disclaims any responsibility for any treatment system and polishing filter designed and installed to this code of practice.
“Neither the Environmental Protection Agency nor the author(s) accept any responsibility whatsoever for loss or damage occasioned or claimed to have been occasioned, in part or in full, as a consequence of any person acting, or refraining from acting, as a result of a matter contained in this publication.”
