Leicester has never been a town. Incorporation came up more than once and it never happened, so there is no town government here and no municipal sewer utility that belongs to the community. What that means practically is simple: nearly every house out here treats its own wastewater on its own ground. When a field goes, there is no main to tie into as a way out.
The ground is the second half of it. This is high country northwest of Asheville, and the soil sits shallow over rock the way it does across the Blue Ridge. Depth to bedrock is the number a design bends around here, and it changes across one parcel. The flat spot below the house tells you nothing about the bench above it. Between the topsoil and solid stone lies saprolite, rock weathered in place, which neither takes water like soil nor turns a machine away like bedrock.
So we bore before we price. Pits or borings go in on the ground being considered, someone reads texture, layering, wetness, and depth, and the county permits off that reading. Then the trenches get cut with the bottoms shot level, chambers or hand placed gravelless product go in flat, and an effluent filter in the tank outlet keeps solids from ever reaching the soil.
