Abstract
A tank suited for use as a septic tank or for otherwise holding or treating water has a top hatchway large enough to enable an adult person to enter the tank. The hatchway is closed by a lid which has a port with a removable cover, where the port that is large enough to enable through-passage of a suction line for cleaning the tank, but small enough to prevent a child from entering the tank. Preferably the port area is less than 6 percent of the effective area of the lid and the centerline of the port lies at a location which is between 20 to 80 percent of the radius of the lid.
