Erma Bombeck said it, the grass is always greener over the septic.



She was wrong. A properly functioning septic tank does not fertilize the
grass over it.

I can locate my septic tank in winter and summer.
In the winter, the snow melts over it before any other place, leaving a
bare spot when there is 6" of snow all around it.
In the summer, during a drought, or periods of dry weather, the grass
over it dies before any other place. Additionally, I can locate all my
fields by the brown grass over each length of pipe.
