Question 8273 — water and sanitation

Summary

Article 7 of the decree of April 27, 2012 relating to the terms of execution of the mission of monitoring non-collective sanitation (ANC) installations specifies that the frequency of monitoring of ANC installations must not exceed 10 years at most. The aim of this control is to detect non-regulatory installations which may or may not present risks to health and the environment. Even if there is no modification to the regulations, these controls remain very important, particularly to detect major malfunctions in ANC installations. Article 7 of the decree of April 27, 2012 specifies that this frequency may vary depending on the type of installation, its conditions of use and the findings made by the municipality during the last inspection. In the case of installations presenting a danger to the health of people or risks proven to cause environmental pollution, checks may be more frequent as long as the danger or risks persist. In addition, in the case of installations requiring more regular maintenance, in particular those comprising electromechanical elements, the municipality may decide either to carry out more regular checks if frequent examination of the installations is necessary to verify that maintenance, drains and the condition of the installations; or not to change the frequency of checks but to ask the owner to communicate regularly between two checks, the documents attesting to the completion of maintenance and emptying operations. Under these conditions, it does not seem justified to call into question this minimum inspection frequency of 10 years.
