It would be interesting to know how many properties are still on septic, especially on the Gulf, the Coastal Dune Lakes, and the Bay or Bayous. Anybody have any idea?

The Florida Department of Health maintains permits by county:
Onsite Sewage Treatment & Disposal System (OSTDS) | Florida Department of Health in Walton

Regional Utilities has their records also and should be lobbying to eliminate tanks. Would be good PR for them to cut or eliminate costs for hookups for a time. There may be grants for it. The Restore Act Funds would be ideal! The city of Freeport submitted a water quality assessment project for Restore Act Funds which would in part evaluate septic systems along the bay. I don't think it was approved.
