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 Orange 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

Orange County permits septic in the unincorporated county under its own Orange County On-Site Sewage Facilities Order (2010). Texas designates a county an authorized agent only after the commissioners court adopts such an order and TCEQ approves it (Health and Safety Code § 366.031), and § 366.032(b) makes that order prevail wherever it is stricter than the state rules in 30 TAC Chapter 285. Read the order before siting a system.

Environmental protections

Nothing in Orange 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.

How Texas permitting works

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 (59.2% of rated soils), followed by clayey subsoil that water moves through too slowly (48.6%). NRCS rates 70.4% of rated ground very limited for a standard soil absorption field, 90.1% for subsurface drip and 90.1% for surface application with disinfection.
