Septic installers avoid an extra plumbing license

Licensed Arkansas septic installers can install pipe from the stub-out pipe to the septic tank without a plumber license. This exemption covers only that work on onsite wastewater systems. Installers must hold a valid Arkansas Department of Health license under the Arkansas Sewage Disposal Systems Act. Other plumbing work remains subject to plumber licensing rules.
