Forsyth Co. expands septic tank pump-out program

The Forsyth County Department of Water & Sewer is expanding its Septic Tank Pump-Out Program to help protect water quality throughout the County by providing a financial incentive for eligible residents to pump out their septic tanks at regular intervals. Prior to this expansion, the program was offered only to residential Forsyth County Water & Sewer customers living near Lake Lanier.

Participants eligible for the program can receive a $100 rebate credit toward their water bill for pumping out their septic tank. The program is open to a limited number of eligible Forsyth County residents on a first-come, first-served basis.

To be eligible for the program, individuals must be a residential water customer of the Forsyth County Department of Water & Sewer, the property owner of the residence, and use a septic system for wastewater disposal. Individuals who obtain their water from a well or get water service from another provider are not eligible.
