Septic tanks and drainage in Brits
Brits is an irrigation and industrial town below the Magaliesberg, with the sewer serving the central suburbs and not much beyond them. The agricultural holdings around Hartbeespoort, Schoemansville, Damonsville and the Crocodile River valley rely on septic tanks and french drains, and the weekend and holiday houses by the dam add seasonal loads. Black clay and alluvial soil near the river and the dam are poorly draining and the water table is high, which is hard on soakaways. Factory sites and farm worker housing use conservancy tanks. Honey sucker operators work from Brits and Hartbeespoort, and the Gauteng side supplies tanks and plant.

Typical conservancy tank emptying requests in the area come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: regular emptying where the ground cannot take drainage, with fewer visits for big tanks
- Farms and game farms: scheduled emptying of sealed tanks near homesteads and staff housing in sensitive ground
- Houses: emptying a sealed tank every few weeks where the stand has no sewer or soakaway
- Factories, mines, sites and events: emptying holding tanks on building sites and factories where there is no treatment
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: extra emptying in peak season, with a level alarm to avoid overflows near guests
- Estates and complexes: fixed weekly collections for shared sealed tanks, with gate access booked in advance
- Restaurants, shops and offices: frequent emptying for shops and offices in town centres with no sewer link
