[Shop-talk] Cost of commercial septic system?

[Pat Horne]

Jim,

Will you be doing the work yourself, or hiring a contractor? I can't give
you the current prices, but we needed to replace our septic system about 10
years ago, the leach field was plugged. Replacing the leach field was
estimated at $9,000 and installing a completely new aerobic system was
$6,000. This was for a system to support 5 bathrooms. We live in central
Texas. My reason for replying was to let you know that you should consider
aerobic systems, as well as any other type of system available in your area
also. 

Peace,
Pat

Some friends and I are very casually talking about building a place in the
woods that'd hold about 25 people. The land is completely undeveloped but
power and wells are on the adjacent property so it's developable. At 75
gals/person/day we're looking at almost 2000 gals/day. Any idea what it'd
cost for a system like this? This'd be in the Sierra foothills of CA but I
can extrapolate from your economy to this one :-)

(lets assume average perc rates, access difficulty etc)

thanks,
jim
