Our On-site Sewage Systems 2012 course is an overview/refresher course for experienced practitioners. This building code course largely deals with the requirements related to the on-site sewage systems regulated under the Ontario Building Code (systems with a design capacity of fewer than 10,000 litres per day). The requirements related to these systems are found in Part 8 of the Code. The curriculum covers permits, responsibilities, site conditions, the five classes of sewage systems, construction, occupational health and safety, evaluation of malfunctioning systems, change-of-use procedures and more.
You must have a copy of the 2012 Building Code Compendium before you begin this course. The compendium is available for purchase through the George Brown College bookstore, at our Building Code and Trade Manuals website and at the Publications Ontario website.
You must have a general understanding of the building construction process and basic blueprint reading skills.
Disclaimer: Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (MMAH) exams are not included in this course. Visit the Ontario government’s building code web page for certification information.
Fee: $404, includes a non-refundable materials fee of $110
