As of 3 November 2026, SepticPlain has published no corrections. When we get something wrong, we fix the page and record the fix here, with the date, the page and what changed. Found an error? Here is how to report it.
An empty log does not mean our pages are free of mistakes. It means no error has been corrected yet. Costs, wages and state and county rules change. Each page gets a fact-check against its sources, as our editorial policy explains, but no check catches everything.

What counts as a correction
A correction is a change to something a page got wrong, such as a cost, a wage, a fee, a tank size, a state or county rule, a source’s description, a sum or a calculator result. It also covers a page that stayed unchanged after its source moved on, such as a state rule that was amended, leaving a reader with outdated information.
Routine work is not logged here. That means fixing a typo or a broken link, adding a new section, or our scheduled rechecks of figures and rules, as our how we estimate costs page describes. A page shows an updated date only when its content really changed.
How we correct an error
- We check the claim against its source, such as the state code, the health department or EPA page, BLS data, a manufacturer’s specification sheet or the published estimate the page cites, and rework any sum it affects.
- If the page is wrong, we fix it, along with any other page or calculator that uses the same figure or rule, and show the new updated date.
- We add an entry to the log above with the date, a link to the page, what it said and what it says now.
If the source does not settle the question, we remove the claim or say plainly that it is unconfirmed. If the source supports the page as written, the page stays as it is. Advertisers have no say over what we publish, so a report from an advertiser, a septic company or a seller is checked the same way as any other.
How to report an error
Use our contact page and include:
- the address of the page
- the sentence, figure, rule or calculator result you think is wrong
- a link to the source that shows the right answer, if you have one
Our pages are general information, as our disclaimer sets out. Check current rules with your local health department or permitting office, and prices with a licensed local professional, before you rely on them.
