To those that truly don't get it this is the difference
Septic systems are sized and permitted based on a PERCOLATION TEST
The LEACHING LINES are sized based on this test
The water is filtered through plant roots,soil,and substrate
This is not the same as a storm water drain that discharges directly into the river/ lake / bay.
Simply because storm water run off is not purified water is no excuse to further contaminate it because of personal expediency.
The rights of the many outway the rights of the individual .
It's called civilized society.
Excellent response Popeye. But watch out!
