Well I didnt quite know where to post this.
I have a client that wants to put in a "grey water " system to take some of the sink shower and mabye laundry water off his septic load. His septic had to be placed above ground in a mound and hes afraid it will will not last as long as it could if he had another way to get rid of the grey water.
He dosent want to reuse the water just get rid of it. The water table does get quite high in the winter So this may be an issue.
I think it will need to be engineerd but what have you seen out there, or done
Its not really my cup of tea I just wanted to see if anyone has any exp. with this.

Mabye a little pond? So the pipe daylights above water level?

That would be illegal in my area, better check with your Health Dept and DEC officials. What we used to do before they prohibited it is pipe it to a drywell. I don't think the pond is a good idea, you'll end up with a stinking mess. I doubt anything could live in the water, plant, insect or other due to the soaps that will be in it.

Dry well ie big gravel filled hole.

get a cultec .... it is a plastic ( heavy duty) camber that you bury and bring in you grey water from the house ,you may have to put some stone on the inside if your soil conditions are not good , check out their web site, oh yea, and don't get a permit for it ! it is only water going back into the soil
