Septic System

Do you pay a sewer bill?    If not, you have a septic system. 

Contrary to what many people think, septic systems are better for the environment than sewers.

Septic systems treat wastewater, then recycle it into the ground, where it helps to sustain local ponds, streams, wetlands and wildlife, as well as the aesthetics of the landscape. Sewers, on the other hand, siphon off the local water supply, pumping it into Boston Harbor. Water-testing data also show that most water pollution problems in the Neponset Valley are caused by sewers. You probably never thought of it this way, but by cleaning and recycling our water, septic systems help to make our communities a beautiful place to live.
