Licensed to Perform
Work authorized by this license, per the Alabama Onsite Wastewater Board. This reflects the license's scope, not a list of services the business advertises.
What this Installer covers
The Alabama Onsite Wastewater Board licenses installers and pumpers under Ala. Code § 34-21A. Installer licences are tiered by system flow and complexity, and the tiers must be earned in order — a basic licence first, then Advanced Level I, then Advanced Level II, each with a time-in-grade and completed-systems requirement. Every licensee must be bonded for the work the licence covers: a minimum of $15,000 for a basic installer, pumper, portable toilet or manufacturer licence, and $30,000 for either advanced level. A lapsed bond suspends the licence immediately.
A basic installer licence covers conventional onsite systems as defined by the Alabama Department of Public Health's onsite sewage rules. It does not extend to small-flow or large-flow engineered systems, and it is the prerequisite for both advanced levels.
Checking it yourself: The Board runs a public licence search. Because the flow thresholds are hard boundaries in Alabama, confirm the level covers your system's design flow before work starts.
Based on Ala. Code § 34-21A-12 and § 34-21A-16; AOWB Administrative Code 628-X.
