Septic services in Galena
What Galena homes mean for septic services
Galena's small incorporated village core has limited sewer coverage, and the rural lots surrounding it on Hoover Reservoir's shoreline are almost entirely on private septic, permitted through the Delaware Public Health District. Proximity to the reservoir's watershed sometimes pushes a new install toward an aerobic treatment unit rather than a conventional gravity field, since the health district weighs surface water protection near the shoreline more heavily. Most water service in this rural stretch comes from Del-Co Water lines even where wastewater stays fully on site.
Galena sits directly on the shore of Hoover Reservoir, the Big Walnut Creek impoundment that supplies much of Columbus's drinking water.
