Septic Tank - distance from boundary.

Addle

Hi - I'm looking for your help in finding up to date info on the distance a septic tank has to be from a boundary.
I've done a search on here, the EPA and my local co council website, but can't find a recent answer.
Can anyone tell me where I'll get the info?
Thanks in advance.

Table 6.1 on Page 14 of the EPA manual gives all of the separation distances currently required for the various components of on site wastewater systems.

Thanks for the reply.
Please pardon my ignorance, but to what manual do you refer?
I see one on the epa website from 1997, but it doesn't correspond with your description.

Sorry Addle - I should have said it's the EPA Code of Practice, and it's page 14.

It's the 2009 version, as referred to in Part H of the Building Regulations TGD's
