Technical Review Panel

Overview

1. The approval of additions and revisions to the state's residential onsite sewage systems rules (410 IAC 6-8.3).
2. The review and approval of requirements in Local Health Department ordinances that are stricter or vary from the state's residential onsite sewage systems rules.
