Septic Permits
The Onsite Sewage Treatment and Disposal System (OSTDS) program requires close coordination with local building departments and contractors. The Santa Rosa County Health Department's (SRCHD) Environmental Health staff provide cost-effective, convenient, face-to-face service to the public.
When applying for a permit to install, modify or repair an OSTDS (otherwise known as a septic system), certain forms need to be filled out. As a convenience to our community and to speed up the application process, we have placed access to many of the forms here on our website so you can click on the link, print them, fill them out ahead of time and bring them in to Environmental Health.
Address: 5505 Stewart St.
Milton FL 32570
Phone: (850) 983-5275
Hours: Monday -Friday, 8 am - 5 pm
All forms are in Portable Document Format (.pdf) and require Adobe Reader
to view them. If you don't have the Reader, please click on the logo to install
