Thanks for sharing your experience and making a septic installer recommendation, Thronester.
I like the powdered cement idea.
I don't have a flat crust of lava (and to be honest I'm not in Puna, I'm in LZ4 on the Kona side) but instead its small rock and chunks 6-15" in aspect over a hard subsurface with minimal soil holding it all together. And its on a 2.5/1 slope.
I am curious about how much of the septic job can be done by me. I'll have a bobcat w/backhoe attachment and could at lease get the hole and leach line trenching dug. I suppose the sceptic installer would have to agree to the help/money saving step.
