Which agency in Wisconsin regulates the installation of mound systems?

The agency responsible for regulating the installation of mound systems in Wisconsin is the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services. This department oversees various aspects of public safety, including building codes and health regulations related to construction practices and systems such as sanitary systems. Mound systems, which are a type of soil absorption system used for wastewater treatment when conventional systems are not feasible, fall under their regulatory jurisdiction. They ensure that all installations meet specific safety and health standards, thereby protecting the public and the environment.

The other agencies mentioned do have important roles in environmental and health matters, but they do not specifically manage the regulations regarding the installation of mound systems. The Department of Natural Resources focuses more on environmental conservation, while the Board of Health may address broader public health issues. The Environmental Protection Agency, although significant in overseeing broader environmental protection efforts, does not regulate specific state systems like mound installations directly.
