Sewage Disposal Service Business Licensing

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality issues licenses for three types of sewage disposal services with a duration not to exceed three years following the date of issuance.

• Installer License: an installer license is required for any person to construct or install onsite systems or parts of onsite systems or to perform the grading, excavating, or earth-moving work associated with the construction or installation of onsite systems.
• Pumper license: a pumper license is required for any person to pump out or clean onsite systems, including portable toilets or any part thereof, and to dispose of the material derived from the pumping out or cleaning of onsite systems or portable toilets.
• Installer/pumper license: the combined installer/pumper license authorizes a person to perform the work authorized by the installer and the pumper licenses.
