What a good wed site that lets you know where to plant your trees and not hurt the sage system?
I assume that you are concerned about planting trees near a septic system, or maybe near the sewerage line that runs from your house to the city sanitary sewer. In either case, you are smart to be concerned. Tree and shrub roots can render either system inoperable and lead to very expensive fixes. Here is a great website that will give you all kinds of practical and useful information:

As to possible problems with an electrical system, the main concern is with trees growing in the vicinity of overhead wires. Best advice is to check out the growth characteristics of the trees you are thinking about planting. You need to know how big they will eventually get, and plan their placement accordingly. For instance, if you knew that a particular species canopy grew to a maxim of 50' in diameter, you wouldn't want to plant it closer than about 30' (just to be on the safe side) from the overhead lines. A Yahoo! search for "tree identification" will result in lots of sites with the specific growth characteristics of most common trees.





Good luck with your tree planting plans.
