What the ground in Beaumont is like

The USDA soil survey rates mapped ground in Beaumont for septic drain-field suitability across roughly 82 square miles. About 57% of the rated ground is classed "Not limited", the survey records few restrictions for a conventional drain field across most of that ground.

In Beaumont, the leading limit is depth to the saturated zone: the water table sits so close to the surface that a drain field has little dry soil left underneath it. Effluent needs unsaturated ground to treat and disperse; when that column is thin, the field has nowhere safe to go. The survey flags that limit on about 43% of the rated ground here.

The limiting features the survey records most often here:

• Depth to saturated zone42.5%
• Slow water movement41.3%
• Flooding9.5%
• Ponding3.1%

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.
