Septic tanks and drainage in Middelburg
Middelburg is a farming and steel town where the sewer reaches most of the older suburbs, but not the surrounding district. Homes in Eastdene, Aerorand and Kanonkop are mainly connected, while smallholdings and farms along the Hendrina and Belfast roads depend on septic tanks, soakaways and the odd french drain. Winter is cold and dry and summer storms are heavy, so soakaways that cope in June can flood in January. Clay soils with a shallow rock layer in places limit absorption trenches. Honey sucker trucks work from town and from eMalahleni, and farmers often combine a pump-out with a drainage inspection on the same visit.
Typical sewage treatment plants requests in the area come from:
- Houses: rarely used at a house; a septic tank or biodigester is normally enough
- Farms and game farms: a plant for worker housing and a packhouse, with treated water for irrigation
- Smallholdings and plots: a small plant for a large smallholding with several homes and heavy use
- Factories, mines, sites and events: a plant for a mine camp or factory, with sampling and waste records
- Restaurants, shops and offices: a plant for a mall, hotel or filling station away from the sewer network
- Estates and complexes: a package plant for a whole estate, with treated water used on common gardens
- Schools, churches and clinics: a plant for a boarding school, clinic or hospital with steady, large flows
