Citizens Energy Group's Septic Tank Elimination Program: STEP'in Forward to Cost-Efficiently Eliminate Septic Tanks

摘要

Indianapolis, Indiana currently has approximately 17,000 homes served by on-site septic systems, which ranks high in the number of septic systems among cities of comparable sizes; ranking only behind Jacksonville, Florida. The soils in Indianapolis are not ideally suited for septic systems which in turn lead to high failure rates and health/environmental hazards. Citizens Energy Group (Citizens), the owner and operator of the wastewater system, is committed to improving the environment for all Indianapolis residents by extending sewer systems into priority neighborhoods through a unique program called the Septic Tank Elimination Program (STEP).
