Wastewater treatment approval process
There are various wastewater systems that you can install on your property, however, each and every arrangement has a range of approvals to be obtained before they can be installed. This is to ensure that you, your household, your neighbours and the environment will not be negatively impacted by the system, which can have a huge range of issues if it isn't the correct system for your needs.

What approvals are required for an on-site sewage facility?
Ensuring you have a wastewater treatment system on your property that is correctly designed, installed and working to its full capacity is a big part of keeping the health of you and the environment at safe levels.
In order to install an on-site sewage treatment facility, whether it is an on-site sewage treatment plant or a septic system, you are required to obtain approval from your local government.

Local council on-site wastewater guidelines
The local council requirements for the installation of onsite wastewater treatment and septic systems can vary slightly depending on your area. We’ve put together some handy links to each council in our South East Queensland service area for quick reference. Find out more here -
Soil testing
Soil testing is an essential step in the wastewater design process as it assesses the percolation and permeability of the ground. This information is used to identify the most suitable treatment system which meets your household requirements, and the local council guidelines and protects the surrounding environment.
