This item concerns proposed alternative wastewater treatment systems for properties in Escambia County. The systems could include waterless, incinerating, or organic waste composting toilets, graywater systems with drainfields, or aerobic treatment units. Other options involve systems that reduce effluent nitrate by at least 50 percent or use alternative drainfield materials. Soil maps, water management data, and flood insurance maps will be used to identify flood-prone areas. This is currently under review by the Inspection Fund Advisory Board. Work could involve site preparation, installation of specialized treatment units and drainfields, and related plumbing and utility connections. Local contractors, plumbers, excavators, and suppliers of wastewater treatment components and drainfield materials may find opportunities as this project moves forward.
