Ten years ago, when we had it pumped last, drew a map with landmarks and measured how far it was from the corner of the house, and noted that it was in an exactly line from the back garage door to the neighbors fence corner, and straight back from our front gate. I went to that spot and started digging it out myself the evening before the service guy came. I came right down on the end of the tank. At least two feet below the surface. I dug out a, roughly, 2.5 foot diameter hole and left it for the service guy to finish digging out. He said he never found the lid but sucked it out through a hole that he "found." Well, I can see through the hole and immediately under that that hole I can see an upright, wide PVC pipe, maybe three inches or so diameter. I figure I put him right on or near, the lid, he just didn't dig out far enough. Wouldn't that upright pipe (is that what they call a riser?) be right under the lid?
