Brookfield Health Department warns of septic system damage concerns

Due to the uprooting or falling of many trees and tree limbs, combined with flooding from the storm, there is a concern about damage to septic systems.  They are magnified with the potential for vehicular traffic over septic systems for clean up.  The Brookfield Health Department says tree clean-up and removal workers should be well-informed of the locations of septic tanks, septic pump chambers and septic leaching fields before driving across properties.  Residents should take some time to inspect the areas where their septic tanks, pump chambers and leaching fields are buried on their properties to look for signs of bleed-out such as soft wet patches and odor, especially following laundry and showering.
