cause for celebration?
not sure if this is something to celebrate or take a step and figure out how it happened. in this fledgling bussiness i have had a few firsts and proud happy days. yesterday i finally did something i should have done sooner. after some prodding from some friends i took and passed the test for septic system installer. i guess this means next time i'm in deep doo doo i am certified to be there and should feel at home.

Rino,
the test really wasn't that tough. there were questions about trench size for diffrent systems, also, field line distanecs; like how far from the house> or from a gully, property line. there were a few legal ones like how long the build permit is good for. hope this helps
good luck,

tnmtn,

Yes it is cause for celebration. I'll send you the name of my favorite wine. Send me a bottle and we'll drink it in celebration of your accomplishment.

Hip Hip Hooray!
