Septic tanks and drainage in Potchefstroom
Potchefstroom is a university and farming town on the Mooi River, with most of the town centre, Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park on the sewer. Beyond that, smallholdings, farms in the Ventersdorp and Parys directions, and student accommodation on the edges use septic tanks, soakaways and conservancy tanks. Dolomite underlies much of the district, so a leaking tank or soakaway can open sinkholes, and municipal rules lean toward sealed conservancy tanks in sensitive zones. The river valley has a higher water table, while summer storms are heavy. Honey sucker operators work from Potchefstroom, and the agricultural suppliers stock tanks and drainage pipe.
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
- 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
- Schools, churches and clinics: a plant for a boarding school, clinic or hospital with steady, large flows
- 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
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: a plant sized for peak guest numbers, reusing water on lawns in dry regions
