Governor Tim Walz signed Emergency Executive Order 23-04 to provide regulatory relief for septic system service companies. Executive Order 23-04 exempts septic tank trucks from seasonal load restrictions on Minnesota roads. Increased levels of snow and rain have impacted septic systems across the state, causing septic tanks to take on water, septic system drain fields to flood, and alarms and lift pumps to fail. Lifting load restrictions will allow septic service companies to meet the increased demand. This executive order is effective immediately.
