Septic Trench Collapse - What to do?

We are adding an addition to our house and we had to add onto our septic system to support it. The system was redone about two weeks ago, they added a new tank and a pump that sends fluids to a new leach field since the old one was too small.

Last night we had some heavy rain and a significant area around the tanks and pump sank in and collapsed. Should I fill this in and move on or is this something that my builder needs to look at? I know some settling is expected but I'm just wondering if this is a signal that something may be wrong.

The pump lives under the green cap and the tanks are out beyond that stone path.
