Can you file an insurance claim if the power utility district drives over and over your 5 year old drain field to the point it malfunctions?

The drain field of a septic system can malfunction from many different causes. If it is damaged from the weight of heavy vehicles driving over it, there may be a covered insurance claim to file. The insurance company would pursue re-imbursement for their payment to you from the 'at fault' party (including your deductible) if they pay you for the damages. //

Not unless it specifically states that it does and chances are it does not.

What does a drain field look like and how does it function in a septic system?

A drain field is a series of underground pipes or trenches filled with gravel that help distribute treated wastewater from a septic tank into the soil. The drain field looks like a flat area of grass or soil with small mounds or depressions where the pipes are located. The wastewater flows out of the septic tank into the drain field, where it is filtered and absorbed by the soil, allowing for natural treatment and disposal.
