We are in the planning stage of building a home for ourselves on Lot 4 while we live in the existing trailer which lies mostly on Lot 3. After a lot of research and discovery we found that our old septic is worn out and in need of replacing, which we are in the process of doing. After learning about septic system set backs and requirements, and getting some input from Garfield county Building Department on where to position the new system, our options became somewhat limited to putting most of the new septic system on Lot 3. This new location, as I understand it, would in effect merge Lots 3 and 4 together. What we are hoping to do through the Amended Plat procedure is officially merge the two lots together and eliminate the easement going through the middle of the two lots. By abandoning the middle easement we hope to avoid possible, future problems with the utilities. We also hope to ease some of the constraints that the middle easement puts on our ability to plan, a much further in the future, A.D.U. (Mother In-law Unit) and garage. We have had utility locates done along the entire easement in question and have found no utilities serving any properties other than our own property. Enclosed are letters from all the utilities along with Quit Claim Deeds from some, which we have already recorded with Garfield County Clerks office. Also enclosed are documents showing proof of ownership, source of water, soil types, names and address of neighbors, Quit Claim Deeds and letters. Thank you for your consideration of this application.

Said tap fee shall be payable in five (5) equal annual payments of $10,000.00 each, with the first installment due thirty (30) days after the execution of the Agreement by the Association. Each succeeding installment shall be due on the same day each subsequent year. No interest charge shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such tap fee, unless a payment is not made when due, in which event interest shall accrue on the past -due payments at the rate of 20% per annum from the date the payment was due until the balance due is paid in full. In the event an additional residertial unit is connected to the Association's water system after such initial connection, the full water tap fee for such unit in the per unit amount of the then current tap feefor out of Town service shall be payable prior to such connection. 4. Water Service Fee. The Association shall pay to the Town a water service fee of $19.00 per month for each residential unit connected to the Association's water system; provided that if the total volume of water delivered to the Association's system under this Agreement during any month exceeds that number 1 • • of total gallons obtained by multiplying the number of residential units connected to the Association's system by 15,000 gallons per unit,(the "base allotment") the Association shall pay to the Town an excess use charge in the sum of $1.50 for each one thousand gallons, or part thereof, delivered during such month in excess of said base allotment. The Town shall be entitled to adjust such water service fee and excess use charge from time to time to reflect any proportional adjustment made in the water service fees charged by the Town to other out of town water users served by the Town. 5. Association Facilities. The Association shall be and remain solely responsible for the maintenance, repair, upgrading, upkeep and replacement of the water tap referred to Paragraph 2, above, and of all of the distribution facilities within the Association's water system.

Dear Mr. Schwartz: As requested, Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. performed a subsoil study for design of foundations at the subject site. The study was conducted in accordance with our agreement for geotechnical engineering services to you dated May 15, 2002. The data obtained and our recommendations based on the proposed construction and subsurface conditions encountered are presented in this report. Proposed Construction: The proposed residence will be single story strawbele,ipas4- _. • .. located on the site as shown on Fig. 1. Ground floor will be slab -on -grade. Cut depths are expected to range between about 3 to 6 feet. Foundation loadings for this type of construction are assumed to be relatively light and typical of the proposed type of construction. If building conditions or foundation loadings are significantly different from those described above, we should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations presented in this report. Site Conditions: The site is occupied by an existing mobile home and two sheds. The building site has been graded relatively flat with a gentle slope down to the southwest and about 3 feet of elevation difference. A 2 to 3 foot cut is located on the eastern side of the lot and 3 to 4 feet of fill on the western side. Vegetation consists of scattered landscape trees and lawn covered areas. Subsurface Conditions: The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by excavating three exploratory pits at the approximate locations shown on Fig. 1. The logs of the pits are presented on Fig. 2. The subsoils encountered, below about 2 foot of gravel road base in Pit 2 and 2 feet of sandy clay fill and 1 foot of sandy clay with claystone fragments in Pit 3, consist of weathered to hard claystone bedrock. Brian Schwartz Ill May 31, 2002 Page 2 Weathered to hard claystone bedrock was encountered in Pit 1 from the grouad surface. Results of swell -consolidation testing performed on relatively undisturbed samples of the clay soils and claystone bedrock, presented on Fig. 3, indicate the clay has moderate compressibility and the claystone has low compressibility under conditions of loading and wetting. The clay sample showed a minor expansion potential when wetted under a constant light surcharge. The laboratory testing is summarized on Table L ;Vo free water was observed in the pits at the time of excavation and the soils were moist. The bedrock materials were slightly moist. Foundation Recommendations: Considering the subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory pits and the nature of the proposed construction, spread footings or a rubble trench foundation constructed on the undisturbed natural soil or bedrock materials can be designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure of 2,000 ps f. There could be some post -construction foundation movement if the bearing materials become wetted. The settlement could be differential between footings bearing on the soil and footings bearing on the bedrock. Spread footings should have a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous walls and 2 feet for columns. The rubble trench should have a width at least equal to the width of the strawbales. Existing fill and loose disturbed soils and rock encountered at the foundation bearing level within the excavation should be removed and the footing bearing level extended down to the undisturbed natural soils or bedrock materials. Exterior footings should be provided with adequate cover above their bearing elevations for frost protection. Placement of footings at least ;36 inches below the exterior grade is typically used in this area. Footings placed on the hard bedrock should not need the full frost depth. As an alternative, rigid foam insulation could be used to prevent frost penetration. Typically the rigid foam insulation would consist of 2" thick "blue board" extending out 2 feet from the foundation and placed adjacent to the bottom of the foundation. Continuous foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span local anomalies such as by assuming an unsupported length of at least 12 feet. Foundation walls acting as retaining structures should be designed to resist a lateral earth pressure based on an equivalent fluid unit weight of at least 50 pcf for the on-site soil as backfill. Floor Slabs: The natural on-site soils and bedrock materials, exclusive of topsoil and existing fill, are suitable to support Lightly loaded slab -on -grade construction. To reduce the effects of some differential movement, floor slabs should be separated from all bearing walls and columns with expansion joints which allow unrestrained vertical movement. Floor slab control joints should be used to reduce damage due to shrinkage cracking. The requirements for joint spacing and slab reinforcement should be established by the designer based on experience and the intended slab use. A minimum 4 inch layer of sand and gravel should be placed beneath slabs -on -grade to act as a H -P GEOTECH Brian Schwartz May 31, 2002 Page 3 leveling course. This material should consist of minus 2 inch aggregate with less than 50% passing the No. 4 sieve and less than 12% passing the No. 200 sieve. All fill materials for support of floor slabs should be compacted to at least 95% of maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum. Required fill can consist of the on-site soils devoid of vegetation, topsoil and oversized rock. Surface Drainage: The following drainage precautions should be observed during construction and maintained at all times after the residence has been completed: 1) Inundation of the foundation excavations and underslab areas should be avoided during construction. 2) Exterior backfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisture and compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density in pavement and slab areas and to at least 90% of the maximum standard Proctor density in landscape areas. 3) The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the building should be sloped to drain away from the foundation in all directions. We recommend a minim= slope of 6 inches in the first 10 feet in unpaved areas and a minimum slope of 3 inches in the first 10 feet in pavement and walkway areas. 4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all backfill. Limitations: This study has been conducted in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no warranty either expressed or implied. The conclusions and recommendations submitted in this report are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory pits excavated at the locations indicated on Fig. 1 and to the depths shown on Fig. 2, the proposed type of construction, and our experience in the area. Our findings include interpolation and extrapolation of the subsurface conditions identified at the exploratory pits and 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 at once so 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 H -P GEOTECH Brian Schwartz • May 31, 2002 Page 4 changes may require additional analysis or modifications to the recommendations presented herein. We recommend on-site observation of excavations and foundation bearing strata and testing of structural fill by a representative of the geotechnical engineer. If you have any questions or if we may be of further assistance, please let us know. Sincerely, HEPWORTH - PAWLAK GEOT _..:�..s��4`. L, INC. lardy Z. Adamson, Reviewed by: Daniel E. Hardin, P.E.

I have reviewed your site plan and have inspected the property to determine potential utility locations or easements. Based upon my review I have determined that there are no Town utilities or easements located on the site. Therefore the Town has no objection to the amended plat request for Lots 3 & 4 of Block 3 of the Elk Creek Subdivision.

Box 518 New Castle, CO 81647 Re: Amended Plat Application Lots 3 & 4 Block 3 Elk Creek Subdivision The following is a request for your approval, regarding the Amended Plat Application now before Garfield County Planning Department. The purpose of our Amended Plat Application is to merge lots 3 & 4 together. In merging the two lots together we also hope to either move or eliminate one of two utility easements that now exist on the property. This will greatly reduce the constraints that the easement in question places on future improvements to our property. Attached is a copy of a plat map and site plan of our two lots and the easment in question. Garfield County Planning Department has requested that we notify E.C.H.O.A. of our intentions, and get a signature of approval prior to our meeting with the commisioners on Dec. 16th. Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
