Presby Environmental, Inc. welcomes the State of Massachusetts! We are very pleased to announce that the Enviro-Septic® wastewater treatment system has now been approved for use in Massachusetts. Glenn Haas, David Ferris, and Steven Corr of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection were instrumental during this process. We would like to thank them for their diligence and perseverance.

Certification Training Classes
Presby Environmental and the Massachusetts DEP require all designers and installers of this system to be certified. It is highly recommended that those involved in the approval/permitting process also attend. Certification is obtained by attending the "Enviro-Septic® Designer and Installer Certification Course" presented by Presby Environmental, Inc., or its sanctioned representatives.

MassDEP has approved this newly revised Quick Reference Guide and has posted it on their website at mass.gov/dep/water/wastewater/iatechs.htm

Both the full length "Enviro-Septic® Wastewater Treatment System Massachusetts Design and Installation Manual" and the revised quick reference guide must be used to design/install an Enviro-Septic® system. In the event of conflicts between the two, the revised guide takes precedence until the full length manual has been updated. We appreciate your patience in this matter.

2. To download the System Installation Form  click here.

Annual System Inspection
The Massachusetts DEP approval requires all Enviro-Septic® systems to be inspected annually. An Enviro-Septic® technology checklist must be completed by an operator trained by Presby Environmental to inspect Enviro-Septic® systems. To download the technology checklist click here.

Currently Enviro-Septic® systems must be inspected annually. Any certified Enviro-Septic® class attendee is a qualified inspector/operator. The MassDEP has designed a new "DEP Approved Inspection and O&M Form for Title 5 I/A Treatment and Disposal Systems" for Enviro-Septic® systems. Specifically, MassDEP excludes the "Field Testing" and "Sampling Information" requirements when inspecting Enviro-Septic®. Completing this new form does not require a class 2 operator's signature even in pumped systems. Click here to download form.
