    The Health District will review the above information to insure the submitted material is complete and to ensure an acceptable OSSF application is submitted.  The application submitted will be evaluated based upon the technical information and site evaluation .  The permit to install will be issued once a review confirms compliance with the approved local order.  Construction of an OSSF can not begin until a permit is issued.   The permit is to construct the design approved.  Altering the construction of the approved design is a violation of OSSF rules.
