No electricity means an almost automatic no water or waste water in a flat area.
You need pumps to treat water.
You have to have what they call a lift station for sewers to work in a flat area.
The sewer line slopes down for a time them is lifted back up by way of a pump to yet slope back down again till it gets to the treatment plant.
Think of the main sewer line looking like a zig zag under ground.
