Official septic information ↗

Permit fees, forms & process

New installs and major repairs need a permit from the local authorized agent — usually the county, sometimes a city — and the rules that bind are the local ones.

This county’s full guide is still in production — the authority contact shown here is the official source in the meantime.

Local rules

What’s different in Hardin County.

Four things decide what you can build and what it costs: zoning, environmental protections, power for aerobic systems, and the ground itself. We publish each one only where we have checked it — and say so plainly where the answer is “same as the rest of Texas”.

Zoning & land use

No county body sets septic rules in Hardin County. The commissioners court has adopted no on-site sewage facility order, so the county is not a TCEQ authorized agent under Health and Safety Code § 366.031 and there is no local layer at all: the permit comes from TCEQ Region 10 (Beaumont) and 30 TAC Chapter 285 applies exactly as written. Texas gives counties no general zoning power either, so unincorporated land here carries neither county zoning nor a county septic order.

Environmental protections

Nothing in Hardin County changes this. Texas adds a separate approval path over the Edwards Aquifer recharge, transition and contributing zones, where TCEQ requires an Edwards Aquifer Protection Plan under 30 TAC Chapter 213. Elsewhere the Chapter 285 rules stand on their own.

Checked against TCEQ, 30 TAC Chapter 213 (Edwards Aquifer), Subchapters A and B — Edwards Aquifer and Contributing Zone in Medina, Bexar, Comal, Kinney, Uvalde, Hays, Travis and Williamson Counties (chapter review date 8 March 2024) ↗ · retrieved Aug 7, 2026

Geology & soil

The dominant constraint here is a seasonal high water table (61.9% of rated soils), followed by clayey subsoil that water moves through too slowly (17.0%). NRCS rates 66.6% of rated ground very limited for a standard soil absorption field, 99.7% for subsurface drip and 99.7% for surface application with disinfection.
