I gave some thought to this when I had to jump through the Environment
Agency hoops regarding my septic tank renewal.

What is the likelihood of the EA refusing to allow any kind of soakaway
(from a septic tank or biodisc system) and would the householder have
any kind of legal recourse if their house suddenly became worthless
because it had no sewage system ?
