Further note that through the efforts of CPOW, Governor Polis has declared a week each year as SepticSmart Week. Join us in honoring and celebrating the important work wastewater professionals do to protect public health, the environment, and Coloradans. Septic systems play a critical role in Colorado’s infrastructure and are responsible for treating millions of gallons of wastewater each day across Colorado. Proper septic system use and routine care are vital to protecting public health, preserving our highly valued groundwater, lakes, streams and waterways, and avoiding costly repairs that can result from neglect.
