Hi there. I recently had my entire septic system replaced and the septic guys ran a septic line under a very large oak tree and cut some pretty large root(s) while doing so. I'm concerned about the size of the root(s) they cut and am wondering if I should be worried and what I can do about it, if anything, to make sure the tree stays healthy. I've attached pics of the line they ran and the biggest root they cut. They also cut some smaller ones but this one looks pretty concerning.
The line isn't very deep so the roots are somewhat shallow, maybe not even 2 feet deep at deepest.
Should I panic and what can I do to make sure I keep the tree healthy after the fact?
