The Citizen, 2006-11-09, Page 24PAGE 24. THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2006.
By Keith Roulston
Citizen staff
Huron County officials are pleased
with the results of their voluntary
septic tank re-inspection program and
have no plans for now to make it
compulsory.
The issues was raised at the
November meeting of county council
after Bluewater councillor Jim
Fergusson noted a report from the
program that showed of the 175
systems inspected in 2005, 25 per
cent had problems with their systems
and 34 per cent had never had their,
tank pumped out. He wondered if the
province was moving to make
inspections mandatory.
• Scott Tousaw, director of planning
and development, said he understood
there had been no move for such a
program other than the
aoknowledgement that the province
does have the power to order
inspections of existing septic systems.
Huron's voluntary program has
been successful, he said. (There had
been 106 inspections in 2006 until
September.)
- Still, if there is a complaint to a
municipality about a septic system
that may be malfunctioning, that
municipality is obligated to
investigate.
Huron East councillor Bernie
MacLellan said if a mandatory re-
inspection was created it would be
difficult to force people to repair
septic systems if they had no money
to carry out the repairs.
"That was our concern," said Penny
Nelligan, director of the health unit,
"that if people were already living in
poverty it would put them into even
deeper debt."
Huron. County has been trying to
initiate a loan plan similar to tile drain
loans available for draining farmland
but has been unable to convince the
province to get involved and was told
it shouldn't be getting into a loan
program itself.
Meanwhile, Nelligan said health
unit officials feel that education is the
first step. "We're not going in (for an
inspection) as authorities but as
facilitators to help people."
Goderich councillor Deb Shewfelt,
who sits on the expert panel advising
the government on implementation of
the new Source Water Protection Act
suggested that some of the money the
province has provided for
implementing the act should go to
health officials for an education
program.
"If you want to fix the septic
situation, put a surcharge on taxes like
we do for sanitary sewers," suggested
MacLellan. If people had already
been paying, they'd be quick to ask
for repairs to get their money's worth.
"We'd end up with the best septic
tank system in Ontario if we did that."
And, joked warden Rob Morley,
councillors would have to buy bullet-
proof vests.
Congrats

service, left, was congratulated by warden Rob Morley for
receiving the Governor General's Exemplary Service
medal. (Keith Routston photo)
