Hamilton has no municipal sewer at all. The town's own 2024 Master Plan states it plainly: "The Town lacks public sewer infrastructure and all lots are served by onsite wastewater treatment systems," with the single exception of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, which runs a private sewer system and treatment plant. That makes every drain problem in Hamilton a septic question, and the ground works against it — more than half the town is wetlands and steep slopes, and the higher land is "boulders, clay, and bedrock that are slow to drain, making them problematic for septic systems." The Board of Health enforces its own Title 5 supplement, revised April 2018, on top of the state code.

"The Town lacks public sewer infrastructure and all lots are served by onsite wastewater treatment systems. The Gordon–Conwell Theological Seminary has a private sewer system and wastewater treatment plant, with its own onsite plant and pump stations."
Hamilton's terrain: "Higher portions of the landscape are boulders, clay, and bedrock that are slow to drain, making them problematic for septic systems. In total, over 50 percent of the Town's land is covered by wetlands and steep slopes." Almost 40 percent (39.9%) of the town's low-lying areas consist of wetlands.
Hamilton's Board of Health has adopted local "Title 5 Supplements: Regulations for the Subsurface Disposal of Sewage (REVISED – APRIL 2018)," a Subsurface Disposal Systems fee schedule, deed restrictions by bedroom count (2 to 5 bedrooms), a required Pumping Record Form, and approved lists of Title 5 inspectors, installers, haulers, operation & maintenance providers and soil evaluators.
"There are approximately 2,353 acres of land within the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) 100-year floodplain, and 111.7 acres of land within the 500-year floodplain within the Town of Hamilton, together comprising 26 percent of the Town's land area." Localized flooding "was identified as a key concern in the 2019 Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan Update."
