Although modern technology has enhanced the septic system function, the basic mechanism has been operating for millions of years. The bacterial action needed to sucessfully treat sewage can be found in any farmer's outhouse. Unfortunately though years of neglect we have allowed our groundwater quality to deteriorate.

New York and New Jersey have very specific design criteria and in the case of New Jersey, no work can be conducted on a septic system without the involvement of a Professional Engineer.

GGA Engineering evaluates, plans, designs or supervises the construction of nearly 1000 septic systems annually. This makes us one of the largest such firms in the region. As with our other work, imagination is our most important asset.
