"Mound" or evapo-transporation systems are used where the ground water table is high and/or depth to bedrock is shallow. When the soil has a good percolation rate and there is at least 2 feet between the high ground water table and the bottom of the leach lateral trench, a conventional leach field system will work just fine. To just require a "mound" system without taking into account site condiditons is ridiculous. When you have good subsurface conditions, a leach system works just as well and is a lot easier to construct and maintain.
