Exam Details

The New Mexico Cesspools, Septic Tanks and Sewers Contractor (MS-3) exam is intended for candidates preparing for contractor work involving liquid waste systems, cesspools, septic tanks, sewer systems, plumbing code requirements, and plumbing trade math. The exam is built around regulatory knowledge, plumbing code awareness, trade math, reference use, and the ability to apply reference material to contractor exam questions.

Preparation should include review of New Mexico liquid waste disposal regulations, Uniform Plumbing Code organization, drainage concepts, venting awareness, traps, cleanouts, pipe materials, installation requirements, sewer and septic system terminology, plumbing calculations, measurements, grade, slope, offsets, formulas, and field problem solving. Candidates should also practice identifying which reference applies to a question before searching for the answer.

Because this is a code-based and reference-based examination, candidates should practice using the books during study. A strong approach is to read a question, identify the key topic, decide which reference applies, locate the applicable chapter, section, table, diagram, definition, code provision, formula, or trade explanation, and confirm the answer directly from the book. This type of preparation helps candidates build both content knowledge and reference navigation speed.

MS-3 questions may involve practical jobsite details. Candidates should understand how liquid waste regulations, pipe installation, drainage principles, sewer system layout, septic system components, pipe slope, measurements, calculations, and code provisions work together. They should also be comfortable using regulatory language, plumbing code sections, tables, formulas, and math examples across the listed references.

The Ultimate package format supports this preparation by combining the listed references with 1 year of course access and Application Service. The course gives candidates a structured way to review major topics and return to difficult areas, while the application support helps candidates work through the application portion of the process with clearer guidance.

Test Information and Study Materials

The New Mexico Cesspools, Septic Tanks and Sewers Contractor (MS-3) exam requires preparation across liquid waste regulations, plumbing code, septic and sewer concepts, and plumbing trade math. Candidates should study the references as a connected set rather than treating them as unrelated books. An MS-3 question may require regulatory knowledge, plumbing code awareness, calculation ability, practical field understanding, or the ability to connect system conditions to written reference material.

Liquid waste preparation should include review of New Mexico Liquid Waste Disposal Regulations (NMAC 20.7.3), 2005. Candidates should become familiar with the organization of the reference, common terminology, system-related requirements, definitions, and regulatory provisions. Regulatory questions can be precise, so candidates should practice locating exact language rather than relying only on memory.

Plumbing code preparation should include review of the Uniform Plumbing Code, 2021. Candidates should study code organization, definitions, drainage systems, venting, traps, cleanouts, pipe materials, installation requirements, and plumbing system provisions. Sewer and septic work may connect to drainage and waste system concepts, so plumbing code navigation is an important part of preparation.

Trade math preparation should include review of Mathematics for Plumbers and Pipefitters, 8th edition. Candidates should practice fractions, decimals, percentages, measurements, unit conversions, pipe-related calculations, offsets, slope, grade, and formula use. Math preparation should be active, meaning candidates should work problems repeatedly instead of only reading examples.

Slope and grade should receive focused study. Septic, sewer, and drainage-related work depends on correct slope, proper layout, and accurate measurement. Candidates should understand how grade is calculated, how slope affects drainage, and how to apply formulas or examples from the math reference to field-style questions.

Pipe and system layout should also be part of preparation. Candidates should understand how pipe materials, fittings, cleanouts, drainage direction, access, maintenance, and system components connect. Questions may require practical knowledge of how a system is installed and code knowledge of where requirements are found.

Reference navigation should be practiced throughout preparation. Candidates should read a question, identify key terms, decide which reference applies, locate the relevant chapter, section, table, diagram, definition, formula, code provision, regulation, or trade explanation, and confirm the answer from the book. This repeated practice helps build speed and confidence for open-book testing.

Because the listed references cover different types of information, candidates should learn the purpose of each book. The New Mexico Liquid Waste Disposal Regulations support state-specific liquid waste material. The Uniform Plumbing Code supports plumbing code requirements. Mathematics for Plumbers and Pipefitters supports calculations and trade math. Understanding the role of each reference helps candidates choose the right book faster during study and testing.

The online course included with this package helps organize study across these topics. With 1 year of course access, candidates can review material over time, revisit difficult sections, practice reference navigation, and build a consistent study routine. The package also includes Application Service, giving candidates additional support during the application portion of the licensing process.
