I know pouring toxic waste pollutes the ground water table. but what
septic tanks that waste eventually gets into the ground water. I know the
sewer system treats the waste water. but what about septic tanks they are
not filtered for waste???

The water gets filtered by the soil itseld but the liduid or soluble pollutants unfortunately succeed in reaching these underground water reserves.

And traces of prescription drugs are found in most drinking water systems, wells and municipal, and there is no filtration process to remove them. We are all connected together whether we like it or not.
