Septic tanks and drainage in Eastern Cape
Large parts of the Eastern Cape sit off the sewer, from Wild Coast villages and rural homesteads around Mthatha to farms near Graaff-Reinet and holiday homes along the Sunshine Coast. Coastal sand and a high water table around Jeffreys Bay, Port Alfred and Kenton-on-Sea flood soakaways, so conservancy tanks and package plants are common. Inland Karoo farms use septic tanks and french drains that rarely get rain to wash them. Schools and clinics in rural areas need scheduled pump-outs, and factories around Kariega and Coega need bulk removal. Honey sucker operators and tank suppliers are based mainly in Gqeberha and East London, so distant jobs cost more.
