The $13 per septic Onsite Septic System (OSS) operation and maintenance (O&M) fee is to cover costs of the County maintaining, receiving, and reporting on required OSS O&M records, and providing education and outreach to Clallam residents on O&M. Specific program examples include homeowner septic inspection classes, public outreach events, incentives or rebates, OSS mapping, database management, inspection compliance reminders, and failure enforcement. A primary goal of the program is to prevent septic systems failures to protect public health and the environment.
You can find information about your property’s OSS inspection status through the Clallam County Geospatial Portal and utilizing the OSS Inspection Status Map. By entering your parcel number (12 digit Geo ID) or address in the map search bar and then selecting from the search results, the map will navigate to your location where you can choose to see the OSS inspection status details like system type or when the next inspection is due along with links to the Assessor’s Property Search information or the Online Permit System for additional documentation.
