Soil and ground
All five sampled points are rated very limited by NRCS for septic absorption fields. Mapped soils in the area are Enon at two points, with Cataula, Madison and Vance at one each, listing slow water movement everywhere. Slopes run from 4 to 28 percent. Elevation is about 607 feet. Stillhouse Branch is 0.5 mile out. This is generalized survey data; individual lots differ and need a site evaluation.
Soil data: USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey. Housing data: US Census Bureau ACS.Homes here
Census counted 716 housing units in Joanna in 2020. The 2020-2024 ACS estimates put the median home at about 1958, and a good share predate 1980. Mobile homes are about 13 percent. Houses from the 1950s often have tanks decades old, so finding the lid, pumping and inspecting is a sensible first step.
Joanna questions
Why are all of Joanna's soil points rated very limited?
NRCS lists slow water movement at all five sampled points, and Enon, Cataula, Madison and Vance soils rate poorly for absorption fields. That is generalized survey data for the area, not a lot answer. Individual lots differ, and a site evaluation shows which kind a given lot is.
Does the Bush River matter for a Joanna drain field?
The Bush River runs about 1.0 mile from the town centre, with Stillhouse Branch at 0.5 mile. A river nearby is not a verdict either way, so a visit to the yard is how to learn about the ground.
