The owners of domestic waste water treatment systems which are deemed on inspection under the 2012 Act to require remediation or upgrading to address a risk to human health or to the environment will be directed by their water services authority to have the necessary works completed by a specified date. The selection of a competent contractor to carry out such works will be a matter for the householder concerned.
