Common
terms for the soil treatment system are: drain field,
leach field, seepage bed, soil
absorption field and mound. The soil treatment system
is where the final treatment and disposal of the septic
tank effluent takes place. A properly designed and installed
soil treatment system will destroy all disease-causing
pathogens and filter out the fine solids contained in
the septic tank effluent.
The
two most commonly used types of soil absorption fields
are trenches and mounds.
