A little update, dug out the old sump basin, and look what we find.
Old basin removed.
PVC pipe with holes drilled by installer, ending outside of basin,
rusty thing is piece of metal gutter downspout going somewhere under floor??? .
Apparently you can put the footer on
top of the concrete floor.
If you happen run out of blocks and have forgotten your block stretcher
Just stuff the hole with old newspaper.
