The ever-so-very competent septic company tech is here, "ringing out" the drain field lines. Something we asked for because we want to know where they are! Which turns out to be a good thing because:
- the Distribution box is not where we thought it was (also, thank goodness, not directly under the rose bush, but I'm still going to move the rose bush).
- the concrete lid of the Distribution box is busted (TIL methane eats concrete) and needs to be replaced
- it would be a Very Good Idea™ to replace the whole box
- the line camera shows soil and possibly roots in some of the lines
- one pipe is crushed near the end.
- we should move two other plants before they get too big to move.
- the diagram of where the drain field distribution pipes are is more poorly drawn than we had imagined
- he can't locate one of the lines
