Homeowner Training Materials

Through a grant from US EPA and in partnership with the Rural Community Assistance Partnership (RCAP), NOWRA has developed training materials for educating property owners with an onsite wastewater treatment system (OWTS). This project developed an interactive homeowner/public training module for residential owners and the public with best management practices to keep their septic systems functioning properly. These practices focus on recycling water: cleaning wastewater and returning safe water to the water cycle with the goal of protecting human and environmental health in a cost-effective manner.
