Septic Smart Week Tip #7: Keep It Clean!

Properly maintaining your septic system helps to prevent contamination to your drinking water well. Test the cleanliness of your well water regularly to keep your family healthy. (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://youtu.be/Tz6wx8kmr_A__;!!KKphUJtCzQ!cmP49k0CO5WxnIVFDEkIZURSlM9XtU1hQfhZw5D1kDTM1ayTioA1hSzCyRl_bvC-Lgxl4bI$ [youtu[.]be])

And don’t forget - many parks 🏞️, campgrounds 🏕️, and highway rest stops 🛣️ use septic systems to treat their wastewater. It is important to learn safe waste disposal practices for all individuals who visit a park, campground, or rest stop that has a restroom facility served by a septic system.

Remember, a toilet 🚽 is not a trash can ❌ 🗑️ - be #SepticSmart!
