Dig septic bed with front end loader

I would dig ruts, put pipe down, cover it with gravel and run a pipe to closest ditch. Who’d ever know?

The OP is asking about a septic field, not grey water.

Be an idiot... Doing that is tantamount to modifying a T 4-5 tractor to geat the emissions hardware and soft ware. You do that and your tractor and your property becomes with much less when you eventually sell it and running the outlet pipe feom a septic to the ditch beagtes any potential sale when you cannot meet the requirements of the sale because it won't pass muster. Sure it's been thought of and done, but right, no way.

I guess that’s a solid idea if you want to your house condemned, utilities shut off and your house be unsellable until it’s brought up to code.

Lots of low income people here just run the pipe to the creek. Mine is up to snuff, but I have seen many trailers with a 4 in pipe sloping to the woods.

There's a small town SE of us that had an open ditch behind all of the houses. Their sewage just went straight into that. For decades. Then, as I recall, it overflowed into an AG drainage ditch and then into a river. I believe they had to start a sewer district and everyone had to hook up. The water table was too high and the lots too small for septic systems. Cost a lot of people a lot of money.
