The Humboldt County Department of Health & Human Services Division of Environmental Health (DEH) has extended the dry weather test period for evaluation of water quantity supplies for proposed subdivisions and residential construction through Thursday, Oct. 15.
Closure of the test period ends at the time of the first seasonal rainfall event.
All parties anticipating subdividing land or developing parcels with on-site water supplies to serve individual or up to four connections should contact a qualified consultant to arrange for testing. The applicant’s agent must certify that at least 720 gallons of water per day for each residence can be produced.
Additional information regarding water quantity testing and water production test procedures can be obtained by calling DEH at 707-445-6215 or 800-963-9241.
