Ok, I have sewage leaking and a faint odor coming from my bathroom. The leak is at the end of my leach field so not a blockage. Probably going to have to replace leach field. My question is what are the requirements for installing a new leach field? My home is over 30 years old and a neighbor stated that code has changed and my .5 acre wasn't big enough to install a new leach field or even replace the existing field. If this is the case what am I supposed to do, pump out the damn tank every 2 months? And worse, I was planning on selling within a year to build on another plot of land I own. Who's going to buy a house with septic problem, it's probably illegal anyway. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!!
