- Keep the bathroom closed to children and pets.
- Stop using showers, toilets, sinks and laundry until the septic system is checked.
- Do not step into the shower or handle sewage-soaked towels.
- Avoid splashing water or using household chemicals on the spill.
- Take photos from a dry doorway if the view is safe.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The 800 housing units across the mapped area include many floor plans, so crews assess each loss on site. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Memphis was built in the 1950s. Older Memphis houses can have layers of flooring that conceal sewage beneath a recent finish. The crew checks the actual layers before selecting removal and drying.
Long winter conditions can complicate outdoor septic access near Memphis. Indoor sewage still needs immediate containment.
