so...how far does a septic tank have to be from a dwelling and how far
from a public sewer do you have to be these days to be allowed a
septic tank..?

How do you mean "how far from a public sewer do you have to be these
days to be allowed a septic tank"? Are you saying that if there was a
public sewer running past your house, you would even *want* a septic
tank? They are a solution of last resort when there isn't a sewer nearby.

As regards "how far does a septic tank have to be from a dwelling?", is
the restriction where the tank is/are, or is it where the outflow is? Is
it legal to have a tank within about 10 feet of part of the house, but
the discharge is about 50 feet away?

I don't think septic tanks are allowable any more AT ALL.
