The primary deliverable of this project is a web-interface that allows an individual to produce an expert-driven and locally-customized manual (electronic or hard-copy) CSOG for any cluster soil-based wastewater treatment system in America. This tool will provide users with fundamental information about the operation and management of various wastewater management systems. A consultant, engineer, septic professional, facilitator, or even an educated community member will be able to use this tool to develop a management plan for either a new or existing community onsite wastewater treatment systems OWTS. The developer of any given CSOG will be able to assemble a professionally designed guide by selecting situation-specific boilerplate language and graphics and inserting customized content to integrate system-specific permit and ordinance requirements. Key partnerships in Arizona, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, and North Carolina, along with the US EPA, will be utilized to assure this grant will deliver a nationally relevant and locally customizable interface tool to facilitate the development of Community System Owner’s Guides.
