Is $45,000 to install a raised bed septic system a fair price?

Project Details

I've received a health department violation because I apparently had sewage going from my back yard all the way to the roadside ditch. I just had a perc test done and it failed. I plan on selling the house after the work was completed and paying with closing profit.
