Onsite Wastewater

The Arkansas Department of Health’s Onsite Wastewater program sets statewide policies and provides assistance to Environmental Health Specialists in each of the county health departments. This program, in cooperation with the local Environmental Specialist, reviews permit applications for onsite wastewater systems under 5000 gallons per day for subsurface treatment and under 2000 gallons per day for surface discharging design.
