No Sewer… No Problem!

If your building site is not connected to council sewer mains, you will need a “Land Capability Assessment” (also referred to as an Effluent Disposal Assessment) to ensure your septic system is designed appropriately for the underlying soil profile. The application of effluent to land requires careful consideration and expertise, with new builds under closer scrutiny than in days past. ARTL consults with all local councils to ensure compliance during the design phase. We also regularly undertake assessments of existing systems, so if you suspect your system is failing, or if you have any questions about your septic system, please don’t hesitate to call!

Land Capability Assessments can be undertaken during a Site Classification in order to save on travel and mobilisation costs.

ARTL uses proprietary nutrient and water balance modelling, developed with interpolated weather data over the past 25 years. This allows our Geotechnical Engineers to provide a site specific report with detailed recommendations to ensure a cost-efficient and long-lasting septic system whilst protecting the environment.

Our Engineers have an incomparable level of knowledge and experience across the local region, and can provide detailed designs for all approved Australian systems, including:

• Absorption Trenches
• Evapotranspiration Beds
• Subsurface Irrigation
• Low Pressure Effluent Distribution (LPED)
• Composting Toilets
• Mound Systems
• Wetlands
