Dave, in my area it is easy to find the leach fields. Just wait until August and it will be the only green patch left on the land.
I have a question though for the rest of the crowd since we are on the subject of leach fields. IF, a field gets compacted, is there any way to "Rejuvenate" it short of remove and replace? I happen to have two fields on my property. The original was abused by previous owners and is siginificantly compacted. A new one was placed just before we moved in because the first was saturated. One neighbor told me he had drug the previous owner out of the old field on more than one occassion /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif Luckily, they plumbed it so that I can choose which field to use. I use the old one for a couple months, I can actually feel it get mushy and then switch to the new one. Anyway, I was wondering if it was possible to shallow till or do something to the old field to improve it?
