"Treated" in what way?


Settle ment and anerobic digestion, like any other two chamber septic
tank. The out flow isn't particulary pleasant but it's not raw
sewage.


I doubt much anaerobic has gone in in the liquor, a smidge of
aerobic in the 2nd chamber (depending on flow rates) & then "down
the nearest hole" ending in a stream...

Maybe this is one of the sort that the EA is targeting?


Going straight into the land drain? Yum!


Define "land drain". Is that: A system of buried perforated pipes
designed to remove water from the land. Or a system of buried
perforated pipes designed to distribute water into the land?


I refer you to the earlier description...
