Project Background

As a result of the Florida Springs and Aquifer Protection Act signed into law by the Governor in July, 2016, Hernando County was tasked to find ways to comply with the requirements associated with the 2016 legislation and developed restoration plans (BMAPS). The Septic to Sewer Conversion Plan is Hernando County Utility Department's (HCUD) response to the state mandated Onsite Sewage Treatment and Disposal System Remediation Plan requirement for Weeki Wachee Springs (more detailed information can be found under Project Overview on side panel).

Septic to Sewer FAQs


ATTENTION

  • If you have a specific question regarding the project, please visit the "Questions" feature below. Your question(s) will be answered by staff as soon as possible.

  • Septic companies are distributing fliers that make it sound like you are going to be required to have your septic system pumped before you are connected to the new sewer system. If you have signed your Temporary Construction Easement document (TCE), your system will be pumped as part of the dismantling portion of this project at no additional cost. Please ignore these notices!

  • If you are experiencing interruptions of trash pickup in your area, please contact us so we can make arrangements for the cans to be moved to a nearby pickup area. The trash cans will be brought back to their original location at the end of the day by the contractor.
