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 sewage treatment plants requests in the area come from:

  • Smallholdings and plots: a small plant for a large smallholding with several homes and heavy use
  • Farms and game farms: a plant for worker housing and a packhouse, with treated water for irrigation
  • Houses: rarely used at a house; a septic tank or biodigester is normally enough
  • Factories, mines, sites and events: a plant for a mine camp or factory, with sampling and waste records
  • Lodges, guesthouses and venues: a plant sized for peak guest numbers, reusing water on lawns in dry regions
  • Estates and complexes: a package plant for a whole estate, with treated water used on common gardens
  • Restaurants, shops and offices: a plant for a mall, hotel or filling station away from the sewer network
