ST. TAMMANY PARISH, LA, UNITED STATES, November 23, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As the St. Tammany Parish Council recently adopted a revised on-site sewerage/septic system inspection ordinance, homeowners across the parish are now facing new regulatory requirements.

In response, Brooks Plumbing is pleased to announce that it is fully licensed, insured, and ready to help property-owners meet these new mandates by performing septic system replacements and installations.

What’s changing?
The parish’s Environmental Services department, in partnership with other regulatory bodies, is moving forward with an ordinance that:
- Establishes a prioritized inspection program for on-site wastewater (septic) systems.
- Puts in place notices and corrective orders for systems found non-compliant.
- Provides for grant-funding/repair assistance for qualifying homeowners.
- Highlights that roughly one-third of St. Tammany Parish residents have private septic systems, and about half of those may not be operating correctly.

What this means for homeowners:
If you own a property served by a septic or on-site wastewater system in St. Tammany Parish, you may be required to have your system inspected and brought up to code. Failure to comply may result in corrective orders, fines or being ineligible for certain property transfers until the system is brought into compliance.
