If you have an on-site sewage management system such as a septic tank or aerated wastewater system, you need to maintain it to ensure the health of your family and the environment. The link below is to a NSW Government guide that explains how these systems work and how to maintain them. It also has handy hints on how to diagnose the health of your system and what to plant in wastewater irrigation areas.

It also sets out your responsibilities under local government regulations relating to operation and maintenance.
