How Much Septic System Wastewater Effluent Reaches Streams?
Abstract
Septic systems are designed to treat and release partially treated wastewater into the subsurface. In doing so they release various pollutants including nutrients, pathogens, and emerging contaminants into the environment. The objectives of this study are to (1) evaluate whether the amount of septic wastewater effluent reaching streams varies seasonally and between high and low stream flow conditions, and (2) assess the utility of using the …
