About this file
This document is an Application/Permit for a Private Sewage Disposal System from the Woodford County Health Department in Illinois. The permit covers the installation of a new septic system for a 2-bedroom residential property located at 524 Conservation Lane. The application provides details on the septic tank, secondary treatment system, soil analysis, minimum clearance requirements, and inspection/approval processes.
The related state and local contract opportunity is for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) to replace the septic system at the Woodford State Fish and Wildlife Area. The Scope of Work and attachments provide more details on this project, but are not included in this specific document.
