IF,  there's a BAN ON SEPTIC TANKS IN MARYLAND WOULD it IMPACT ST MARY'S COUNTY HOUSING, and housing in other rural parts of Maryland?

ST MARY'S COUNTY is a rural county in Southern Maryland.  Most homes in Lexington Park and Leonardtown are on public sewer.  There are other smaller sewage waste systems in the county, built by builders of subdivisions. 

BUT the majority of ST MARY'S COUNTY have no sewage waste systems and rely on septic systems.  The Governor is looking at subdivisions  with five-or-more homes as requiring sewage waste systems.  The intent would be to assist in reducing pollution. This would not appear to effect indiviuals who need a septic tank for one new house.

Margaret, I can't believe we voted this guy in again! This is a large problem for most of the state, he's just out of touch with the real problems.

Good Morning Margaret, thats an important update. Hopefully they will still allow single family homes to install them.

Septic tanks.........I used to think they were only in rural areas of the country, then I got into real estate and discovered that they are everywhere!

Thanks for your comments.  Septic tanks are a part of 'living' in many places.  Before coming to St Marys I lived in rural WVa, with a septic tank.  It does not look as though single family homes will be affected only subdivisions with 5 or more houses.  It will become the builders responsibility and the cost will be passed to the Buyer.  Margaret C.
