What the ground in Fayetteville is like

The USDA soil survey rates every mapped parcel for its suitability as a septic drain field. Across Fayetteville's 148.3 square miles, 56.8% of the rated ground is classed "Very limited", meaning restrictions severe enough that a conventional field is often unsuitable and an engineered system may be required.

The limiting features the survey records most often here:

• Slow water movement83.1%
• Seepage, bottom layer33.9%
• Depth to saturated zone19.3%
• Slope17.3%

The most common soil series underfoot: Wagram, Blaney, Lakeland.

This is survey data for the area, not a substitute for a site evaluation on your own lot. A soil scientist or your county health department tests the actual parcel, and the result can differ from the map.
