    Technically a septic tank is not considered a sewer system. A sewer system is a network of pipes, pumps, and other infrastructure designed to transport wastewater for central processing…a septic tank processes the waste on-site.

      You are the best kind of correct, buuut yeah, if I flush and the sweetcorn goes somewhere that I don’t have to look at it then that’s enough for me :-)

      If I put my septic tank on an adjacent property and also hook up my shed/barn to it (in addition to the cabin), can I call it a sewer system then?
