A new septic system was installed today to replace a 54 year old original system. The 1/4 acre back yard is now a roughly graded wasteland of dirt. Does anyone with experience have sound advice on a plan for attempting to restoring the lawn before winter? We have a few large shade trees that make growing grass in one half the yard a real challenge while the other have gets good sun for now. The question is how long to wait for the malestrom to settle and regrade with a bobcat and then re-seed without running up against the impending fall leaf covering. Why not wait for spring you ask? I have two spoiled dogs who love the outdoors and a white tile floor.\\
