Help,I have septic tank water coming in my sump pump hole in basement ,dug away and found a clay pipe way under floor ,the outlet pipe to drainfield is new this week and 2 old pipes have been plugged out to drainfield ,this other clay pipe bringing effluent into basement goes out the other side of the house, it was possibly a grey water pipe ,where does it go ,obviously tied into system somehow(drywell)i had a locate done and it heads off towards drainfield but stopped around 15 feet from house,drainfield is 60 feet from house,the weird part is I flushed dye into system a while back,emptied tank to replace output line 2 days ago,and just today with heavy rains water came into sump hole glowing green with uv light but doesn't stink,again tank is only half full(2 days after pump out),how is this possible??

It is filling up with ground water. If fields are not blocked or broken water will dissipate as water table goes down.
