Who regulates this work in Tennessee

Tennessee does it the other way round from Georgia. The state issues the permit to the installer rather than the county, and it is good across Tennessee. Some counties run their own septic program on top of that, and Hamilton County, which is Chattanooga, is one of them.

Authority
Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, Division of Water Resources
Who issues a permit
the state, through the Division of Water Resources, except in a contract county where the county runs its own program

What to ask before you hire

  • Whether the permit is current. Tennessee permits run out at the end of December each year.
  • Whether it covers the kind of system you have. A mound or an aerobic unit is not the same permit as a conventional field.
  • In Hamilton County, whether the county wants its own permit as well as the state one.

The exact certifications, the exam and the fees differ by state and they change. Check the current rules with Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, Division of Water Resources before you rely on any of it.
