The primary focus of this policy is on the safe disposal of wastewater from dwelling units and
work places with a view to protecting, restoring and improving the state of the lagoons
around our islands. This process will be aided by the use of appropriate treatment systems
and disposal methods as required under the Public Health (Sewage) Regulations 2008. In
