Septic tank emptying program
The installation of septic systems is governed by the provincial regulation, Q-2, r.22.
The frequency for pumping your septic tank is required as follows :
- Residence (year-round) = every 2 years
- Seasonal = every 4 years
- Retention or sealed septic tanks = as needed (minimum once a year)
A permit for the installation of a septic system is mandatory. Part of the cost of the permit is reimbursable upon reception of a technologist's or engineer's certificate.
For more information with respect to obtaining a permit, please make an appointment with our town planning department.
Once your septic system has been emptied, we ask that you supply a copy of your receipt to the Municipality as proof via Mrs Claire Romain info@municipalitepontiac.ca or by fax 819-455-9756, which will allow us to keep our records up to date.
Thank you for your cooperation.
