There are two main types of on-site sewage management

When using our garden tools we would like to have them kept in a place where we could easily find everything and wouldn't have to go a long way to grab it. And it might be a problem if we have all things in one place with purpose to serve something else, like basement or garage. Looking for a small thing in that kind of wholesale air hose coupling mess might take a lot of time. So it is better to have a special small building for this purpose, especially that its design can match the garden design.We can buy or build this kind of building ourselves. There are many different models on the market and most of them are just ready to use ones or ones that are almost ready to use (with small hammer we will be just fine). It is so much easier to buy just almost totally made buildings than to construct them ourselves. And if we have a lot of elements to hide in there it is better to choose a big building that would match all other buildings than just using a cupboard.

The best material for this kind of building would be wood. Before we set all up we should check if the wood is impregnated - all elements of the building should be but most important are the one that are closest to the floor. Of course, we should put something under the wood not to make it stand to close to the ground. Let's also not forget about the roof - here we have a look that should be combined with strength.The best place for the building would be close to water and electrician. So, build your own garden building for storage or buy one and definitely you would be much happier gardener!To avoid mosquitoes breeding, remove water-logged rubbish, empty out pot plant bases and try to encourage drainage from your yard. Bore waterIf you use bore water for domestic purposes and believe the bore has been contaminated, NSW Health recommends that you use an alternative source (bottled water or rainwater) or bring the bore water to a rolling boil before use.The process required to treat a contaminated bore depends on factors such as its depth. If you are uncertain of what to do, contact your local public health unit.If you have ongoing concerns about the quality of your bore water, please contact your local public health unit. On-site Sewage Management Facilities

There are two main types of on-site sewage management facilities:1. Septic Tank SystemSeptic systems often do not function during flooding or when the soil is very wet. A flooded septic system may cause a sewage back-up and surcharge in the home and a lack of sanitation until the system is working properly. Septic tanks may need to be pumped out. The soil and surrounding areas need time to dry out.Flooded septic tanks may have been filled with silt. An inspection should be made through the inspection openings using a dipstick. If solids or silt fill more that 1/3 of the vessel then it should be pumped out by a council-authorised sludge removal tanker.The land application area serving the septic tank will not absorb any effluent until it has dried out and the water table is below the bottom of the absorption trench. Until this happens only essential toilet waste should be discharged to the septic tank.If you suspect your septic tank vessel or pipe junctions are damaged, have them professionally inspected and/or serviced.2. Aerated Wastewater Treatment System (AWTS)The AWTS should not be used if it has been inundated with floodwater.

Isolate the electrical connection and call the service technician immediately. Alternative sewage management facilities and methodologies should be employed.For advice on other types of sewage management facilities contact should be made with the manufacturer or distributor. Vegetable gardensFloodwater may have contaminated your vegetable or herb garden. Some garden produce may be salvaged. Disinfecting, peeling and cooking is recommended to prevent food borne illness.For more discussion of this topic, check the links below:flooded, flood, flood northshore
