What is the worst that can happen? Someday your or your heirs may want to sell the property. An illegal septic system just might stop the sale until the system is removed (and the contaminated soil replaced) or replaced with a legal system.

Remember the old movie "The Grass is Always Greener Over the Septic Tank".
