The Metropolitan Health Department oversees septic and sewage disposal systems and construction of commercial kitchens and hotel/condo/apartment swimming pools.  Builders and developers who plan to work in areas without Metro sewage service should contact our Environmental Engineering department before submitting construction plans.
