Michigan Local Public Health District & Sanitary Code Notice:

Michigan is currently the only state in the nation without a uniform statewide sanitary code for onsite septic systems. Onsite wastewater systems are regulated independently by 45 local and multi-county Health Departments under Part 24 of the Michigan Public Health Code (Act 368 of 1978). While the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) oversees septage haulers and large commercial systems, all individual residential construction permits, site soil evaluations, and local Time-of-Sale (point-of-transfer) inspection ordinances are enacted and maintained directly by your local district health department.
