Hi All, I'm after a bit of brainstorming. I've applied for a certificate for my (to be installed) treatment plant, the plan is the treatment plan will output to a 50M Rumbling drain, then into an existing Underground Field drain (POINT C) - which ultimately goes to a burn or the sea(500M), Background There is a house (A) further away from me and the sea to the North , and at this point I'm assuming they may well use this same field drain, and a house to the South (B), closer to the sea. The underground field drain seems to run past all properties North / South. There are two Burns 1 to the East and 1 to the West but both of these are over single track roads and at least 300M from the drain. It seems far fetched that this drain connects to either of these as the sea and cliffs are closer SEPA are happy in principle with my discharge plan, but want a grid reference for the drain entering a suitable watercourse. I've asked SEPA where A & B discharge, but the don't know because they got Hacked... I'm off to site this week, and my plan is obviously to Ask new neighbours A & B, if they have any details, but my thought is they wont, so brainstorming what should I do. I was thinking of putting DYE at house A discharge point and see if this does indeed pass through this field drain past my proposed connection point. but then what? Follow this down towards the cliff and see if I can see the pipes? Any feedback would be great. Cheers.
