  Bogus septic inspections

Just sold my farm. Had to install a new septic system since the old system "failed". My question is: I've never had a problem once with the old septic, but the inspectors failed it on the grounds that it didn't adsorb the flow fast enough. Who designs the specs for residential septic systems? Who approves them? I've always been annoyed to find out that county inspectors and installers had a cosy relationships and/or held both jobs at once. Kinda sounds like a conflict of interest to me.

  Bogus septic inspections

I had to sell the house and for that the septic had to pass the inspection which it didn't. Once it fails you can't sell the house, so you have no choice but to do what is necessary to remediate. In my case it meant installing a new septic. The sepctic fiasco cost me around $16K. In my township there are a lot of older homes that have been selling and needed to replace their septic systems.

There definitely needs to be protection for ground water, but, in my case, the ground water tests passed with flying colors so there's wasn't a contamination problem, just an "overzealous inspector/specsheet problem".
