I am sorry to hear that, Grant. I have to admit you lived my worst fear in
digging but I finished today and had nothing more than hard dirt and some of
the fattest fishing worms I ever did see to deal with. 73,

We (K7LXC & I) ended up finding a unknown buried abandoned septic tank

without rebar is legal structural fill so the humongous hole sucked up
19 yards vs the 9 yards for the UST design. Use a form to make it look
good above ground and pour to have 6" of topsoil over the fill concrete.
