Septic clean out cap (reddthat.com)

So my dad broke the septic clean out cap with the lawn mower. He cannot find a replacement that is lower to the ground so I am printing a new one. Should I use PETG? Or another material. Also I hope this is not violating some form of regulation in the U.S.

I wonder what the various companies blend into their pla+. This stuff is from a company that's since gone out of business, but it seems to shrug off UI, rain, and ice/snow. It wasn't matter hackers, but they had a similar name from what I recall. USA made and cheap, but their QC wasn't great.

As for ASA, I've only printed Polymaker. I buy the 3kg spools when they go on sale and it's hard to beat 3kg for $70 or so. I am tempted to try another brand to see if it prints differently though.
