No Sir FLee, I am about as confused as anyone. I do know you have to be 30 feet back from the water with the construction to include your house decking. I was hoping it was only for the house. You also have to be 50 ft from the property lines. Neither of the above deal with perc.

I believe most everything you stated about perc is correct. I do know a big factor for perc is the underground geological make-up. A bed of solid rock or rock ledge is going to kill you on perc. I don't want to have to go through the pumping uphill procedure.

I do not know the Lady but was only repeating what I had heard from another source. I can imagine it is difficult for such a job to be handled by only one individual for an entire County. Especially a rural County with primarily septic systems.

Yes, I heard there was a recent law change. I don't know the particulars or even whether it was a State or Federal change.
