What is the required minimum distance from an on-site sewage facility to an easement?

The correct minimum distance from an on-site sewage facility (OSSF) to an easement is typically set at 10 feet. This requirement is based on the need to ensure that the functionality and maintenance of the OSSF are not hindered by the presence of an easement, which can be a location for utility lines, rights-of-way, or other access needs. Keeping this distance helps protect both the OSSF and any utilities or rights associated with the easement from potential interference. Adequate separation reduces risks related to contamination, ensures proper access for maintenance, and adheres to regulatory requirements aimed at protecting public health and the environment.
