Septic System and ATU vs. Cesspools
#1
Sewage management for your home and for public buildings not on the County's sewer system.

Septic Systems and Aerobic Treatment Units (ATU) vs. the Cesspool.
Both Septic Systems and ATU's convert the effluent waters to a relatively safe level for introduction to the ground soils, ATU's typically cleaning the effluent water to a higher standard than the common septic system.

A cesspool is merely a solids holding hole that allows all the infectious bacteria laden water and solids to leach directly into the soils without any sort of treatment regime.

Cesspool contaminate the ground water supply which effects local well water and inevitably reaches the surrounding coral reefs of the Island.

What's your opinion regarding the States allowance of the cesspool?
