Septic tank registration is limited to five years!

Today in the post I received a "Certificate of Registration" from the protect our water team.

It has an expiry date!!!(5 years) WTF :mad:
That has never (to the best of my knowledge) ever been mentioned anywhere, does that mean (almost certainly) that we'll have to re-register in 5 years and pay yet another fee, one that will almost certainly be much higher. :eek:

Just how far do you think a €50 fee would go in inspections over 5 years?

How long does my certificate of registration last?

Your certificate of registration is valid for five years and the date of expiry will appear on the certificate. Re-registration after five years is necessary as the first registration is intended to identify only the ownership and location of domestic wastewater treatment systems. It is expected that over the coming years, public information campaigns will help you learn more about your system and you will be better placed to provide more information regarding it when you re-register.There will be no fee payable for second or subsequent registrations.

You could have checked that before you posted.
