What event triggers the Notice of Transfer requirement?
Any time there is a transfer of ownership of a property served by an on-site wastewater treatment facility (conventional septic tank system or alternative on-site system used instead of a conventional system). Typically this is a simple property sale but, pursuant to Arizona Administrative Code (A.A.C.) R18-9-A316, the requirement is triggered for any transfer of ownership. This could include a transfer to a new owner due to repossession, divorce, terms of an estate, a gift or charitable donation, etc.
