Consultation has now concluded

An on-site system of sewage management is any system that treats sewage on the site where it is produced, such as a septic tank, composting toilet or aerated treatment system. Council has endorsed the Policy of management and we are seeking community comments until 15 May 2018.

Currently within the QPRC Local Government Area (LGA) there are approximately 5000 (OSSMs) in the former Palerang LGA and 700 in the former Queanbeyan LGA. The former Palerang has been coordinating a successful OSSM inspection program since 2006. It is suggested that QPRC follow this successful model, incorporate the best of the former Palerang model and improve the OSSM program for the new LGA.
