The call usually comes when something stops working. We also like to hear from people before that, when a pump-out or an inspection is all it takes.
Septic in Willis: what is different
Willis sits between two kinds of ground. Farm and forest land stretches toward the Sam Houston National Forest, and lake subdivisions line the north shore of Lake Conroe.
Under much of it is clay subsoil. Water moves through clay slowly, so aerobic spray systems are common on lots around Willis. Many of those same lots draw water from a private well, so a working system matters for more than the lawn.
On the north end of the lake, any system within 2,075 feet of the water is permitted by the San Jacinto River Authority. Its rules are stricter than the county's, and they shape how a repair or replacement gets done.
Everywhere else, Montgomery County Environmental Health Services issues the permit. On either side of that line, an aerobic owner still needs a maintenance contract and a visit at least every four months.
