Before determining where to place a mound system, it is probably a good idea to have a picture of the general mound profile. It starts with a layer of clean sand at the undisturbed soil surface which is at least 1 foot thick. The top of the clean sand is level so the media (rock, chambers, etc.) used in the bed can be installed level as well as the pressure distribution laterals. Geotextile fabric is put down if the media is rock and then a sandy loam cap is provided over the top before being finished with topsoil.Location on the
