September 19-23, 2016
Each year, EPA holds SepticSmart Week with outreach activities to encourage homeowners and communities to care for and maintain their septic systems.

Join the effort to raise awareness by:
- Hosting an event or training

- Scheduling service for your system
- Declaring a SepticSmart proclamation
- Getting your local and state decision makers involved
- Participating in the conversation on social media #SepticSmartWeek
