Why Brockton Heights needs this specifically
D.W. Field Park’s wetter ground is exactly the scenario that stresses a septic drain field during heavy rain, making overflow more likely to surface in the yard here than in drier parts of the city.
Saturated ground near D.W. Field Park can complicate drainage around a home’s foundation, making sewer line or septic issues more likely to surface — or worsen — during heavy rain.
