The Health Officer is an appointee of the State of New Hampshire, recommended by the Board of Selectmen. He serves in the capacity of inspector to measure compliance with State statute in a wide variety of actions, and monitors any incidences or occurrences that have the potential to adversely affect the public health.
All septic system designs must be approved by the Health Officer prior to their submittal to the State Department of Environmental Services. A $100.00 fee must accompany your submittal, which should include four copies of the plan (one for the town and three that will be stamped for the State's review). The fee includes inspection of the test pit and bed bottom.
IF YOU ARRANGE FOR AN INSPECTION AND THE SITE ISN'T READY WHEN THE INSPECTOR ARRIVES, YOU WILL BE CHARGED AN ADDITIONAL FEE OF $50.00.
