OSTDS Operating Permits (only applies to counties that use operating permits):

Operating permits are required for aerobic treatment units (ATU), performance based treatments systems (PBTS), commercial septic systems, and industrial or manufacturing zoned (or equivalent) septic systems.

Due to the large number of Operating Permits in Brevard County, our office conducts routine inspections daily from approximately 9 a.m.-4 p.m., Monday through Friday (excluding holidays). Please contact the Florida Department of Health in Brevard County if you are the owner of a property with an Operating Permit and there is limited access to your septic system so arrangements can be made for annual inspections.
