QUESTION
Need advice on pit latrine construction and well placement at 21m above from the well in Kerala

I am writing from Kerala. Regarding the facts for constructing a pit toilet ( those found in rural areas).  The question is, is it good to dig a 20feet well in a sloppy area of 30 degree slanting, if a pit latrine(i.e. the toilet pit is not cemented, normal kacha pit of 5x5 dimension) is at a distance of 21 m above from the well.
