Interested in learning about septic maintenance? Clallam County Health and Human Serivces offers a Septics 101 class.

This free, 2.5-hour class provides homeowners with an overview of the what, why and how of septic system maintenance.

The class is from 6-8:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 28, at the Dungeness River Audubon Center at Railroad Bridge Park, 2151 W. Hendrickson Road, Sequim.

Pre-registration is required and available online at www.clallam.net/HHS/EnvironmentalHealth/onsitesepticregistration.html or by calling Environmental Health at 417-2506. Class organizers urge those interested to register soon, as class spaces are limited.

As an alternate to the class, there is an online Septic 101 version available on the Environmental Health website at www.clallam.net/Septics101.

Septics 101, either the in-person class or online, is a prerequisite for Septics 201, the class that teaches how to become certified to inspect one’s own septic system.
