New Septic System questions

[Tom Kappeler]

We currently live in a rich soil/sand/clay area in southern NJ with a typical septic system. We are looking to build in Sparta NJ, which is a hilly, very rocky area. The lot we are looking at is sloped (about 50' drop over 250' front to back)

Will the type of geology change the type of septic system needed or just the expense due to additional excavation efforts? While driving around, I have not noticed mound systems, or they are well hidden through creative grading.

Thanks for any advice/input you can provide.

Unfortunately, we do not own the property but need to put a budget together for construction costs to come up with a go/no go decision. We understand that until the perk test is done, it can't be put out to bid/priced.

Is there some typical type and some range of costs for the area just to ? three bedrooms, 2.5 bath
