Septic System Layout And Rainwater Drainage Plan
A septic system and rainwater drainage plan must be coordinated carefully so wastewater treatment areas stay protected and surface water drains away from buildings, parking areas, and the absorption field.
Septic Tank And Absorption Field Placement
The design starts by reviewing the architectural plans, site layout, soil report, drone footage, existing slopes, access areas, and property boundaries. Septic placement options may include areas near the rear of the house, under or beside parking areas where permitted, or other suitable zones based on soil absorption capacity and required setbacks.
Setback And Site Constraints
The layout must respect required clearances, including a 6-meter setback from the center of the street and a 3-meter setback from neighboring lot lines. The septic tank, absorption field, drainage routes, and proposed site improvements must be positioned to avoid conflicts with structures, access paths, and future maintenance.
Rainwater Drainage Planning
Rainwater must be routed away from the house, parking area, septic tank, and absorption field. The drainage plan may include surface flow arrows, grading notes, swales, collection points, discharge paths, and drainage coordination based on the site slope shown in drone footage and topographic information.
