15 Miss. Code. R. 18-77-5.5.18 - Distribution of Effluent [Chamber Systems]

1. When a change in elevation of the chamber system is required, a distribution box, connecting lateral or crossover must be used. At the point where a crossover line leaves a lateral, the trench for the crossover line shall be dug no deeper than the top of the endplate inlet or the inlet in the top of the chamber in the preceding trench so that an undisturbed block of earth will remain in place for the full depth of the system. The invert of the crossover must be at least four inches lower than the invert of the septic tank outlet line.

2. Distribution boxes may be used to connect the effluent line to the effluent distribution lines. The distribution box shall be level and supply all lines equally. Field lines (chambers) must be equal lengths when served by one distribution box. Non-perforated rigid pipe shall exit the distribution box for a minimum of five feet at level grade before the effluent distribution line begins.
