Boating|According to the city of Helsinki’s septic tank map, all drainage points are out of order. However, according to the city, all emptying points are working.
Boating season the peak is approaching, but on the sides of the city of Helsinki, all the septic tank emptying points seem to be out of order. It tells about the condition of the emptying places septic tank mapof which all 16 are currently marked in red.
However, there is no trust in the map right now, says the head of Helsinki’s marine services unit Ari Maunula.
“The reason is not that the Septic Tanks are not in use, but that we ran out of contract with the company updating the map. So the map is not up to date.”
The toilet waste of the boat’s toilet is temporarily fed into the septic tanks. The septic tank must not be emptied into waterways, but must be emptied at the ports’ emptying points.
Maunula according to the information, all drains are in working order. The city is also currently practicing updating the map. Maunula does not know exactly when the map will be updated again.
“Probably in the next few days. And if not, we’ll take the map off the pages.”
Maunula has not received any contact from boaters about incorrect information on the map. The boater can report an out-of-order emptying point to the city of Helsinki.
