Land Use

Land Use Programs

Land Development: To ensure that proposed developments and businesses within Yuba County comply with applicable State and local laws within the Yuba County Environmental Health (YCEH) jurisdiction. In coordination with other YCEH programs, the Land Use team evaluates development proposals with the goal of protecting or minimizing impacts to human health and the environment.

Sewage Disposal: To protect the health of the public and the environment from the improper disposal of sewage from on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTS) and greywater systems. This is accomplished through development and enforcement of local ordinance and regulations for the permitting and inspections of OWTS, greywater systems, and waste haulers to ensure compliance with State and local laws.

Private Water Systems: To ensure that water wells are properly located and constructed with annular seals and properly destroyed when no longer in service to protect the quality of groundwater resources.
