In June 2012 I made regulations setting out the procedures for householders to register details of their septic tanks and other wastewater treatment systems with their local authorities. The Local Government Management Agency has developed, on a shared service basis for the 34 county and city councils, an on-line registration facility and the Agency is also tasked with managing a central bureau to process registration applications and associated fees. There is a backlog of applications submitted by post which the Agency will process over the coming weeks. Certificates of Registration will be issued as each application is processed.
