Soil Testing
Soil testing is required prior to the installation of any new septic system or mound coring according to Wisconsin, SPS 383 code. Soil evaluation is performed to determine how well your land can filter wastewater before it reaches the ground water and what type of POWTS is suitable for the soil. This will also determine limiting factors such as high ground water or bedrock.
