Regulation of county sewer treatment plants under debate

"The authority to regulate private sewage treatment plants is something the Floyd County Plan Commission has never had.". Board of Commissioners will make a decision on 2 amendments to the zoning and subdivision control ordinances. The commission wants developers to get approval for treatment plants prior to getting approval for a new subdivision.. Private treatment plants have been a problem in Floyd County with system failures allowing untreated sewage to flow into streams causing health hazards.
