Yes, wastewater containment systems can be installed above ground. While traditional containment systems are often constructed as in-ground structures like ponds or tanks, above-ground installations offer viable alternatives. These systems can include above-ground storage tanks, modular or portable containment units, or even specially designed structures.
Above-ground systems can be advantageous in situations where site constraints, soil conditions, or other factors make in-ground installation challenging or impractical. They provide flexibility in terms of location, ease of installation, and potential for relocation or expansion.
