Septic tanks for flood-prone areas

Hello. In a small city with public toilets, the proposed design by local engineers is to have a septic tank with a soakaway for the effluent. The problem is that this area has a relatively high water table, and floods occasionally during the year, so the soakaway would not work well. Are there any better ideas in this circumstance? Thank you, Remi
