Near the river
South Corrales sits closer to the bosque and to Alameda, with more homes per acre and big cottonwoods. Groundwater can be shallow, and smaller lots leave less room for a field.
What that means
- Designs that keep the field higher above groundwater
- Advanced treatment where required
- Watertight tanks installed to resist flotation
- Fields kept away from cottonwood roots
Replacing older systems
Older homes here often have systems installed under older, looser rules. Replacement under today's rules may look very different. See high water table lots.
