As part of the SepticSmart Program, Boulder County Board of Health adopted a property transfer regulation in February, 2008, that will go into effect on September 1, 2008. The regulation requires that all homes have an adequately operating and approved septic system at the time of sale or purchase of a home.

Just like inspecting a roof or electrical system, buyers and sellers will need to make sure the septic system is in good working condition, has been inspected, and meets current and approved Boulder County standards.
