Costly Septic Bill!

Currently, the Maryland Senate is considering onerous septic legislation that will cost many homeowners $12,000 or more! Please contact your Senators TODAY and let them know that you oppose SB 554 which could require homeowners to pay for nitrogen removal technology when installing a new septic system or even just repairing one!

According to the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE), the average grant to pay for such systems is $12,000, not including additional money for yearly maintenance contracts. Some systems cost tens of thousands of dollars. We need your help today! Please contact your Senator to OPPOSE SB554.
