HOMEWORK/PRACTICE Instructions: Indicate if an excavation is an option. If ‘yes’ determine the elevation of the bottom of the drainfield in reference to grade if an excavation is performed. Also indicate the elevation of the bottom of the drainfield in reference to grade if an excavation is not performed.
