What the ground in Murphy is like
The USDA soil survey rates mapped ground in Murphy for septic drain-field suitability across roughly 2.6 square miles. About 95% of the rated ground is classed "Very limited", the survey records severe restrictions for a conventional drain field across most of that ground.
In Murphy, the leading limit is seepage in the bottom layer: water moves through the soil too quickly. That is the opposite of a slow-drainage problem. The risk is untreated effluent reaching groundwater before the soil can clean it, not backup at the surface. The survey flags that limit on about 91% of the rated ground here.
