Some of the comments relate to ground water levels in FL. As I said in my previous post, this varies widely throughout the state. But either way, the groundwater table is almost completely irrelevant to the most onsite sewage systems (like septic tanks). While you might hit the water table at only a few feet below ground, residential wells are most commonly in the 150' to 250' level, or whatever it takes to get to the aquifer plus another 50' to 100'. Production wells are usually 300' (+) deep. The aquifer is more than a 1000 feet thick.
So don't worry about your little bit of poop just below the surface. Its got a long way to go and will be broken down and re-purposed long before it gets there. And if it did, would that little bit of poop have any effect on zillions of gallons of water...
