This
year-round waterfront home in the beautiful island town of Harpswell
was plagued with septic problems stemming from its 30-year-old
undersized wastewater disposal system. With shallow depths
to bedrock, sensitive shellfish beds, and a nearby water supply
well the installation of a conventional septic tank system was
not an option.
