I recently moved to Oak Harbor, WA and my house has a septic system with two leach fields. One is operational and the other is a reserve and is not currently connected. My problem is that the lawn over this reserve field is strange. Along each of the 6 legs of the system, the lawn dies each spring. The soil directly above the laterial is very dry and powery. Right next to the laterial the grass is green up to the next laterial where again it is very dry. Now I can put tons of water on the lawn and these dry lines turn green, but no one has been able to explain why this is happening. Can you help Joe MacMillan jmac2293@comcast.net I have a question I have tried to get an answer to with no success.
