What the ground in Batavia is like

The USDA soil survey rates mapped ground in Batavia for septic drain-field suitability across roughly 3.4 square miles. About 100% of the rated ground is classed "Very limited", the survey records severe restrictions for a conventional drain field across most of that ground.

In Batavia, the leading limit is slow water movement: effluent does not drain through the soil fast enough, so a conventional field can back up or pond when the ground cannot keep pace. The survey flags that limit on about 90% of the rated ground here.

The limiting features the survey records most often here:

• Slow water movement90.2%
• Depth to saturated zone55.1%
• Slope40.0%
• Seepage, bottom layer29.4%

This is survey data for mapped areas, not a substitute for a site evaluation on your own lot. Conditions on a single parcel can differ from the map.
