Who regulates this work in Arizona
Arizona licenses this as a building trade rather than as a public health credential. Installing a septic system commercially means holding a CR-41 from the Registrar of Contractors. The permit is separate and comes from your county, which runs its own program under state delegation. A new system always needs one, and so does a significant repair.
- Authority
- Arizona Department of Environmental Quality, with permitting delegated to all fifteen counties
- Who issues a permit
- your county, which holds the authority by delegation from the state
What to ask before you hire
- Their CR-41 number. It is a public contractor license and can be looked up before anybody digs.
- Which county issues the permit, because Arizona delegates to all fifteen of them.
- If you are buying or selling, who is doing the transfer inspection. Arizona wants one before the house changes hands.
The exact certifications, the exam and the fees differ by state and they change. Check the current rules with Arizona Department of Environmental Quality, with permitting delegated to all fifteen counties before you rely on any of it.
