I have an abiding memory, as a child in the Central Belt, of a farmer we knew whose bull drowned in a ceptic tank.

Won't any farmer be able to empty it, or is it a specialist job? Just thought that if a farmer could do it could he spread it on his field?

was told by water board and sepa that it is against the law for any person other than water board to dispose of septic waste,
