In many parts of the state the depth to groundwater is greater than 100 feet, and in other areas with shallower groundwater, there are aquitards that physically block the movement of ground water. Under these conditions, the migration pathway between the surface soils where a septic system is in place and the groundwater is incomplete and the migration of contaminants from a septic system to the groundwater is a physical impossibility.
