This is going to give a brief overview of what many realtors and private real estate brokers believe is going to become a huge issue, the state of Vermont has placed a time limit on there new law, any pre-existing waste water systems will have to comply with the new law by a certain date if the existing system in place is to fail. Many of the land owners whom have subdivided there property and sold lots for people to build on did so without all the state regulations, the laws allowed this as long as you had at least a 10 acre parcel.

Many of these systems were put in lets say not the same as the ones regulated by the state of Vermont, so they are more likely to fail than others, when this occurs the owners of these properties have no choice but to comply and submit a wastewater permit and have a system installed which is designed by a licensed engineer and meets state requirements. Which is where some of the big problems may begin, the area where they are required to install a new system may only be able to accept a certain type of system known as a raised mound, these are much more expensive.Had they known they may have not purchased the property.

The other main issue are additions to a home with a system built without state requirements, any increase in water flow to the system ,Additional bathrooms,kitchens,laundry, will also trigger a waste water permit to be filed with the state and a system installed which has been designed by a licensed engineer and meets state requirements. Again many of these property owners may have looked at different parcels to build on had they known this situation was going to arise.

The state has come up with alternative systems which are going to solve many of these issues, but as of yet they are still in the development and some planning stages at this time. If they supply everyone with these alternatives it should help this issue to be much less of a problem, but we are still waiting for the alternative inexpensive systems the state of Vermont has promised.
