The Grass never grew properly over the Septic Tank... As the Tank is located just outside the Front of the House we decided to Build a 12' X 8' Platform Deck over the Tank which sits on 4 Patio Stones, 1 at each corner.. The Platform was designed so that a section 8' X 30" wide could be pulled up like a Trap Door for easy access to the 2 Cement Lids to the Septic Tank. There is a layer of Topsoil about a foot deep spread across the Tank.. My Query ,With our Cold Canadian Winters in Eastern Ontario Would it present a Problem if we were to eliminate the Topsoil under the 12' X 30" wide section (???) Curious is All
