Layout and Approvals : Here you need to be extremely careful with the approvals as one missed signature can prove costly. Make sure you have every signature. Get copies also.
Sketches : It is important that you keep ready a sketch when dealing with this type of project. Locate any structures such as plantings, poles, power Transformers, fences, lot lines, large rocks and slopes. Get the permission from the health dept so that you can a few test pits dug.
Test Pits : One test pit is sufficient but nowadays most municipalities ask for several test pits to be dug. Get a backhoe to dig the pits. Coordinate with him in digging test pits.
Design, Location and Digging : Keep your design as per the needs of the health departments and get it approved. Also get the approval for the location of the septic tank.
Next up is to follow the design with sand, stone and pipe. You should also make sure the grade meets the plan. Next sand and stone the tank area. If a cement tank is used, hire a crane for installing. Lay and install the tank to design and also attach the pipe to house. Get approved.
Backfill: Finally the backfilling process. Before starting to do this, make sure you have all permits and signatures in correct places. This is the pont where it gets costly. The owner feels everything is all right but the signature gets missed. Then the problem starts of reinspecting everything from the beginning. The fill also needs to be approved.
