How many feet away from the distribution box do all independent sewers need to remain equally level?

Independent sewers are required to remain at a distance of at least 2 feet away from the distribution box while maintaining an equally level setup. This requirement is critical to ensure proper functionality and distribution of effluent, minimizing the risk of waterlogging or ineffective drainage. The 2-foot distance allows for sufficient separation to prevent interference with the flow and to maintain the integrity of the sewage system, helping to avoid issues such as clogs or backflow that can occur when systems are improperly aligned or too closely spaced. This regulation is part of the guidelines that promote efficient septic system operation, supporting the overall health and safety of the environment.
