What should have they done with it? Why don't you do it then? Should
they have dug it up?
My house also has an abandoned septic tank in the yard. I've done with
it the same thing that
you're previous owners did with yours - *nothing*.


Then you should do something. Some town have codes and procedures as does
the Uniform Plumbing Code

Also, read this http://www.septicprotector.com/deathpools.htm

Ignorance is not an excuse so it would be wise to remedy the bad
situation.


This septic is a solid concrete vault type, less than 30 years old. I'm not
about to go digging up a non-problem.
