Separate Parts From Soil
Check crushed lines, connections and dosing equipment. A pipe repair cannot restore unsuitable or saturated receiving soil.
Follow the County Repair Plan
Onslow requires a permit to repair a malfunctioning system. The approved plot plan defines the correction.
Review Changes to the Yard
Paving, grading, pools and heavy traffic can affect the field. Compare current conditions with approved records.
Assess Restoration Methods Carefully
A proposed method must be suitable and approved. Aeration does not fix broken pipes, high groundwater or inadequate space.
Protect the Repaired Area
Keep vehicles, paving and deep roots away. Maintain the tank and filter and fix unnecessary water use.
