This is obviously wrong. Leach fields are 30 or 40 feet square. You
own about 500 x 500 ft.


The notion that a typical leach field is 30 sq ft is off by more than
an order of magnitude, even for a small house.

He wasn't saying sq feet, he was saying feet square. 40x40 = 1600 sq feet. But
your point is well taken - even that isn't up to current code in most places.
