• System engineering and design associated cost. These “up front” costs are included in our fee schedule and remain relatively constant from one site to another. • System installation cost – Prior to having an approved engineered plan in place, we can provide some average system installation costs based upon on site conditions and access to the work site. Our precise estimate can only be worked up once we have an approved design plan to work from. If I have to have a “Raised” leaching area, do I have to have a mounded look?
