A few examples of how public health is monitored and\/or protected by EHS\u2019s include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The issuance of sewage disposal system construction permits and the inspection of newly installed sewage disposal systems (and\/or septic repairs) to ensure they are located and constructed properly.<\/li>\n<li>The issuance of construction permits for private wells (drinking water, irrigation and\/or agricultural) to make sure they are located and constructed properly.<\/li>\n<li>The inspection and permitting of businesses (sewage handlers) that pump septic tanks and\/or portable toilets and dispose of sewage.<\/li>\n<li>The investigation of reports and\/or complaints of sewage or other kinds of groundwater and\/or surface water contamination. The investigation usually leads to corrective actions, such as necessary septic repairs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Septic Malfunctions and\/or Failures<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>VDH defines a true septic malfunction and\/or failure as sewage surfacing and\/or backing up into the dwelling. If you have witnessed a septic malfunction, please contact your local Health Department immediately to report the malfunction. Each Health Department office will be able to provide you with a list of Private Onsite Soil Evaluators (OSEs) that can help evaluate your existing septic system, determine the appropriate septic repairs and\/or upgrades, and provide you with a septic permit package to be provided to the Health Department for review and issuance of a septic permit (repair, voluntary upgrade, septic expansion, new build).<\/p>\n<p>If you have questions regarding your septic system and\/or private well(s), please contact your local Health Department. This includes requesting records on your existing septic system and\/or private wells (i.e., septic system as-built drawings, well logs, recent repairs, etc.).<\/p>\n<p><strong>RAHD Environmental Health Department Offices:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>City of Fredericksburg &#8211;
