INTRODUCTION
This report provides the results of an onsite wastewater treatment system (OWTS) design
for the proposed cabin and garage to be located at the Jolley Ranch, 1080 County Road
335, Garfield County, Colorado. The purpose of this report was to provide design details
for the OWTS in accordance with the 2014 Garfield County Onsite Wastewater
Treatment System Regulations and the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment's Regulation #43. The services were supplemental to our proposal for
geotechnical engineering services to the Richard and Mary Jolley Family LLLP dated
March 25, 2015.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical previously prepared a subsoil study for foundation design
for the project and presented our findings in a report dated April 27, 2015, Job No.
115108A. Profile borings and percolation testing were performed as part of that study in
the area of the existing septic disposal field.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The proposed construction will consist of construction of a new bedroom cabin that will
be connected to an existing garage as shown on Figure 1. The garage will have a
bathroom and utility sink but no bedrooms. The OWTS will be designed based on a
maximum of four bedrooms. It is desired to use the existing 1,500 gallon septic tank as
part of the new system.
If proposed construction or location plans change significantly from those described
above, we should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations contained in this report.

SITE CONDITIONS
The building area is occupied with a garage, well and existing septic system located as
shown on Figure 1. A cabin located in the same general vicinity was recently razed to
allow for construction of the new cabin. The site is accessed by an existing gravel drive.
Vegetation consists of grass and weeds. The ground surface is relatively flat with a
strong slope down to the northeast.
Irrigation ditches are located just west of the building area. A 50 feet minimum setback is
required from ditches to the soil treatment area (STA), septic tank, sewer and effluent
lines. There is an existing well located north of the proposed construction, see Figure 1.
A 100 feet setback is required from the well to the proposed (STA). The existing STA is
tciclose to the well and needs to be abandoned. A 50 feet setback is required from the
well to the septic tank, sewer and effluent lines. There is also a cistern located north of
the proposed garage. A 25 feet setback is required from the cistern to the septic tank,
STA, sewer and effluent lines.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
The field exploration was conducted by H -P Geotech on June 11, 2015. Two profile pits
(Profile Pits 1 and 2) were excavated at the location of the proposed STA as shown on
Figure 1. Logs of the profile pits are provided below.

_
• Bottom of pit at 8 feet. Samples at Ph, 2 and 4 feet.
• No free water was encountered at time of excavation.
The soils encountered, below about 12 to 18 inches of topsoil, consisted of clay to the
maximum depth explored, 8 feet. The clay was gravelly with scattered cobles below
about 51 feet in Profile Pit 1 and 21/2 feet in Profile Pit 2. A hydrometer and gradation
analysis was performed on a disturbed bulk sample of the soils from Profile Pit 2 with the
results provided on Figure 2. The tested sample classifies as Clay per the USDA system.
Based on the subsurface conditions and laboratory testing, the soils have been classified
as Soil Type 4 per State regulations, which equates to a Tong -term acceptance rate
(LTAR) of 0.2 gallons per square foot per day.
OWTS ANALYSIS
Based on the site conditions and subsoil information, the site is suitable for a
conventional infiltration disposal system. These type systems typically consist of
infiltrators in a trench configuration. We expect the base of the soil treatment trenches
will be located in the Clay soils (Soil Type 4) which correlates to an LTAR of 0.20. The
STA will be sized for four bedrooms using an LTAR of 0.2 gallons per square foot per
day. Garfield County has confirmed it is acceptable to use the existing Copeland 1,500
gallon septic tank for the new system.
The sewage will gravity flow from the residence and garage to the existing septic tank for
primary treatment then gravity flow to the STA for disposal and final treatment. The
STA will consist of seven trenches with Infiltrator chambers. Equal distribution will be
provided by a distribution box.

DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
The design recommendations presented below are based on the proposed construction, the
site and subsurface conditions encountered and our experience in the area. If conditions
encountered during construction are different than those that are described in this report
please contact us and we will re-evaluate our design recommendations. The existing
conditions and proposed construction are provided on the Figure 1 site plan
SOIL TREATMENT AREA
• The treatment system will consist of seven trenches with 25 Infiltrator Quick 4
Plus Standard chambers in each trench (175 chambers total). Equal distribution is
proposed by a Fralo Monster distribution box.
• The STA was sized based on an LTAR of 0.2 gallons per square feet per day.
• Each chamber was allowed 12 square feet of area and a 30% reduction in the STA
was allowed per Garfield County regulations. The total STA is 2,100 square feet.
Soil treatment area calculations are shown on Figure 2.
• The base and sidewalls of the trench excavations should be scarified prior to
chamber placement.
• A minimum of 12 inches and a maximum of 24 inches of cover soil should be
placed over the chambers.
• Backfill should be graded to deflect surface water away from the STA and should
be sloped at 3 (Horizontal) to 1 (Vertical) maximum.
• Disturbed soil should be re -vegetated as soon as possible with a native grass mix.
No trees, shrubs or other plants with deep roots should be planted on or near the
absorption area as this may damage the system piping.
• Four inch diameter inspection ports should be installed vertically into the
knockouts provided in the Infiltrator end caps. Install vents at each end of each
trench. The inspection port piping should be screwed into the top to the chambers
and should not extend down to the ground surface inside the chambers. The
inspection ports should extend at least 8 inches above the finished ground surface
or be protected in a valve box at finished grade.

• A plan view of the STA is presented an Figure 3 and a cross section of the STA is
presented on Figure 5.
OWTS COMPONENTS
Recommended OWTS components provided below are based on our design details and
our experience with the specific component manufacturers. Equivalent components may
be feasible but need to be approved by us prior to construction.
Septic Tank
• A I,500 gallon, two chamber Copeland Concrete septic tank is proposed for
continued use at the site. The tank should be inspected by H -P Geotech during
construction of the new system for water tightness.
• An effluent filter should be installed in the tank outlet tee.
• The septic lids must extend to the final surface grade and made to be easily
located.
Sewer Pipe
• The sewer line from the residence and garage to the septic tank should not be less
than the diameter of the building drain and not less than 4 inches in diameter.
• The sewer pipe should have a rating of SDR35 or better. Schedule 40 PVC pipe
must be used beneath driveway surfaces.
• The sewer pipe should be sloped between 2% to 4% to help limit disturbance of
solids in the tank and potential sewage bypass of the first chamber of the tank. if
a steeper slope is needed, this can be accomplished with vertical step-downs in the
sewer line.
• The garage sewer line should be connected to the residence sewer line with a
downstream wye connection. A 90 degree bend or tee fitting is not acceptable.
• A minimum 36 inches of cover soil should be provided over the sewer pipe.
Paved areas, patios or other areas without vegetative cover may be more
susceptible to frost. We recommend 48 inches of soil cover over the sewer pipe in
these areas and the pipe be insulated on top and sides with 2 inch thick blue foam
!ob No. 1 15 108B

insulation board. If adequate soil cover is not possible, we should be contacted for
re-evaluation prior to installation.
• The sewer pipe should be bedded in compacted 3/4 inch road base or native soils
provided that the native soils contain no angular rocks or rocks larger than 21/2
inches in diameter to help prevent settlement of the pipe. Sags in the piping could
cause standing effluent to freeze and damage piping.
• Install cleanout pipes within 5 feet of the building foundation, where the sewer
pipe bends 90 degrees or more and every 100 feet of sewer pipe.
• All 90 degree bends should be installed using a 90 degree long -sweep or by using
two 45 degree elbows.
• The sewer line from the cabin and garage will encroach on the required 50 feet
setback to the existing well on the property. The cabin sewer line will also
encroach on the 25 feet setback to the cistern. Encroachments to the setback are
allowed if the pipe is encased per Note 2 of Table 7-1 of Regulation #43 which
states:
Crossings or encroachments may be permitted at the points as noted above
provided that the water or wastewater conveyance pipe is encased for the
mininuun setback distance on each side of the crossing. A length of pipe shall be
used with a minimum Schedule 40 rating of sufficient diameter to easily slide over
and completely encase the conveyance. Rigid end caps of at least Schedule 40
rating shall be glued or secured in a watertight fashion to the ends of the
encasement pipe. A hole of sufficient size to accommodate the pipe shall be drilled
in the lowest section of the rigid cap so that the conveyance pipe rests on the
bottom of the encasement pipe. The area in which the pipe passes through the end
caps shall be sealed with an approved underground sealant compatible with the
piping used.
• The cleanouts from the cabin and garage should be encased in a minimum of 12
inches of concrete.
• The sewer line locations shown on Figure 1 are considered conceptual. We
assume that there will be only one sewer line exiting the cabin and one sewer line
exiting the garage. It is the responsibility of the owner and/or contractor to locate
Job No 115 108B
-7_
all sewer line exit Iocations and connections to the septic tank. We should be
notified if there are other sewer lines exiting the buildings.
Effluent Transport Piping
• The effluent transport pipe should be 4 inch diameter SDR35 piping sloped at a
2% minimum to flow from the septic tank to the distribution box and from the
distribution box to each trench. Piping should extend at least 4 inches into the top
knockout provided in the Infiltrator end caps and be screwed in place. Splash
plates should be installed beneath the inlet piping to help prevent scouring of the
infiltrative soil surface in the chambers.
• The effluent transport pipe should be bedded in compacted'/ inch road base or
native soils provided that the native soils contain no angular rocks or rocks larger
than 2'/2 inches in diameter to help prevent settlement of the pipe. Sags in the
piping could cause standing effluent to freeze and damage.
• A minimum 24 inches of cover soil should be provided over the effluent transport
pipe. Paved areas, patios or other paved area or areas without vegetative cover
may be more susceptible to freezing. We recommend 48 inches of soil cover over
the pipe in these areas. If adequate cover soil is not possible the effluent pipe
should be insulated on top and sides with 2 inch thick foam insulation board, and
we should re-evaluate the proposed soil cover prior to installation.
• Schedule 40 PVC pipe should be used underneath driveway surfaces and be
provided with at least 48 inches of soil cover and be insulated on top and sides
with 2 inch thick foam insulation board.
• All 90 degree bends should be installed using a 90 degree long -sweep or by using
two 45 degree elbows.
Distribution Box
• To ensure equal effluent distribution to the Infiltrators, a distribution box will be
used to divide effluent flow. We recommend the Fralo Monster distribution box
since it is easily accessible from ground surface for maintenance with a Fralo
septic tank lid system.
!ob Na 115 IOSB Gietr h
-8-
• The distribution box must be accessible from ground surface for inspection and
maintenance per State guidelines.
• The effluent line from the septic tank should be directed downward into the
distribution box with a 90 degree elbow inside the box.
• The distribution box must be equipped with Tuf-Tite speed levelers for ease of
initial setup and adjustment over time.
• The distribution box must be installed level on a compacted granular soil subgrade
to ensure equal effluent distribution. If settlement of the distribution box occurs,
unequal effluent distribution may take place which could cause hydraulic overload
of one of the trenches and potential premature failure. The distribution box should
be monitored periodically and the speed levelers should be adjusted as necessary.
The ground surface above and around the distribution box should be graded to
prevent standing water.
OWTS OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
The OWTS will require periodic inspection and maintenance to function properly. A
properly designed, installed and maintained system can greatly increase its lifespan. The
level of maintenance will vary depending on the complexity of the system and water use
habits of the residents. We recommend that an OWTS Operation and Maintenance
(O&M) Manual be developed. Depending on the complexity of the system a contract
with an OWTS maintenance provider may be prudent. Below are some basic
recommendations for the OWTS O&M.
OWTS HOUSEHOLD OPERATION
• Use of high efficiency water fixtures is recommended to decrease the hydraulic
load on the OWTS system.
• Fix plumbing leaks immediately as this may cause a hydraulic overload of the soil
absorption system.
• Do not irrigate the area on top of or directly upgradient of the soil treatment area
field as this may cause a hydraulic overload.
Joie No 115-108B
-9-
• Do not dispose of household waste down household drains as this may clog or
damage OWTS components. Examples of household waste includes: dental floss,
cotton swabs, coffee grounds, paper towels, feminine products and many other
kitchen and bath items.
• Use of kitchen garbage disposals is not recommended. If a garbage disposal is
utilized, kitchen wastewater should be screened thoroughly. Many kitchen solids
are not decomposed in the septic tank and may cause increased tank pumping
frequency.
• Do not dispose of household chemicals, greases, oils, paints, hot tub water or
water softener backwash in household drains. A separate drywell, if feasible, may
be necessary for hot tub water or water softener backwash disposal.
• Limit the use of bleach as this may harm useful bacteria in the septic tank and soil
absorption system.
• Liquid dishwasher and clothes washer detergent is recommended for households
served by an OWTS. Clay substances used as fillers in powder detergents may
result in clogging of the soils absorption system.
• The effluent in septic tanks can freeze during extended periods of non-use in cold
weather. We recommend that a tank heater be installed in this system to help
prevent freezing.
OWTS MAINTENANCE
• Inspect the septic tank, effluent filter, distribution box and soil treatment area at
least annually for problems or signs of failure.
• The effluent filter should be cleaned annually by spray washing solids into the
first chamber of the septic tank.
• Septic tank should be pumped and cleaned every 3 to 5 years depending on use.
Longer pumping intervals may increase the amount of solids that reach the soil
STA, which may shorten its life span.
• Pumping of the septic tank should take place when the level of the sludge and
scum layers combined take up from 25 to 33% of the capacity of the first chamber
of the tank.
Job No 115 108B

OWTS CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION
The Garfield County Environmental Building Department requires that the designer of
the system provide an As -Built certification of the OWTS construction. We should be
provided with at least 48 hour notice prior to the installer needing the As -Built
inspections. Prior to issuance of our certification letter, we require observation of all
system components prior to backfill. The number of site visits required for the inspection
will depend on the installer's construction schedule.
LIMITATIONS
We have conducted this design in accordance with generally accepted engineering
principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no warranty either expressed
or implied. The recommendations provided in this report are based on the site conditions,
the subsoil study and soil texture analysis evaluations, percolation test results, the
proposed construction and our experience in the area. Variations in the subsurface
conditions may not become evident until excavation is performed. If conditions
encountered during construction appear different from those described in this report, we
should be notified so that re-evaluation of the recommendations may be made.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for design purposes. We
are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our information. As the
project evolves, we should provide continued consultation and field services during
construction to review and monitor the implementation of our recommendations, and to
verify that the recommendations have been appropriately interpreted. Significant design
changes may require additional analysis or modifications to our design.
It is our opinion that the designed location of the OWTS components does not violate any
setback requirements of the current Garfield County Regulations. Below is a table of
common minimum horizontal setbacks to OWTS components. Refer to the Garfield
County Regulations for a complete list of required setbacks. We recommend the OWTS
!ab No 115108B
components be surveyed by a Professional Colorado Land Surveyor and verified by H -P
Geotech prior to the system permitting.

OWTS ABSORPTION AREA CALCULATIONS
In accordance wlh the current Garfield County Onste Wastewater Treatment System Regulatbns,
the sol treatment area was calculated as follows:
CALCULATION OF OWTS DESIGN FLOW:
Q = (F)(B)(N)
WHERE:
Q = DESIGN FLOW
F = AVERAGE FLOW PER PERSON PER DAY
B = NUMBER OF BEDROOMS
N = NUMBER OF PERSONS PER BEDROOM
F=
B=
N=
Q=
CALCULATION OF OWTS SOIL TREATMENT AREA:
MINIUMUM TREATMENT AREA = Q + LTAR
WHERE:
4=
LTAR (CLAY - SOIL TYPE 4) =
75 GALLONS PER DAY
4 BEDROOMS
2 PERSONS PER BEDROOM
600 GALLONS PER DAY
