The Johntalks recommends 1/2 lb per gallon, but does that only cover the 5 initial gallons of chemical we add in? If its a 50 gallon tank, should I mix in 25 lbs? Because that will be way over the euetic point for the initial 5 gallons. Sorry its such as silly question

These stations are typically found at:
Large Travel Centers (e.g., Pilot Flying J, Love’s)
RV Parks and Campgrounds (often for a fee)
RV Service Centers
For large, commercial volumes (like septic tank waste), the disposal must happen at a licensed Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), a service typically handled by commercial liquid waste haulers.
