Buddy,
   Let's just assume that there are no city/ county permits required Wink


Cutter,

    Thanks for the info.  I do have a few more questions now.   I have been under the impression that you don't want too much slope in a sewer line, or the fluids will "outrun" the solids. Eventually leaving a buildup of solids in the line, though I am not 100% on that.  Do you know if there is a point that the line can have too much slope?

     Enzymes,   What happens when I rinse the kennel with bleach? I assume it will kill the enzymes in the septic...do I wait a day or so for the water to leach out, then add more enzymes?

     I am not familiar with the plastic baffles, but I have a source where I get my stone for free, so I think I will probably go that route, as it will save me some $$.

      I did a little more reading on the 2" above grade comment from the above link, it appears they are just cutting the top couple of inches of a galvanized garbage can, then bending the "lip" over to create an entry point for the waste to run into. Doesn't look like something I want to fool with. I would like my "system" to be sealed, with the exception of the entry point from the individual kennels, and the exit at the side of the turnout area.
