Hlala/Prl nce Creek Eshtas Su bdivision
Revlenn' of Property for On.sltg Wastewater Systems
As requested, Nelson Hnvironmental and Wastewater Solutions, Ltd., has performed a
preliminary soils study to determine thE suihbility of each of the proposed residential lots
for an on.site wastewater disposal system.
Garfield County is requiring that the means of wastewater disposal conform to
regulations, and if individual sewage systems ar€ proposed, the soils on the property
ehould meet the crlterla eshblished in the Garfield County Rcgulations on lndividual
Sewagc Dieposal Systema and the Colorado Department of Hsalth Guidelines for
lndlvidual Sewage Disposal Syrteme (Revlsed 1988) a$ a sultable soll. The
establlshed crlterla lnclude an acceptable percolation rate of between five and sixty
minutes per lnch, slopes across the bullding envelope of less than 30%, and an absence
of ground water or bedrock formations within eight feet of the sufface of the ground.
The wastewEter from each of the four new residences proposed can be disposed of by
means of an individual sewage disposal system. Each lot is to be approxlmately 2 acree
ln size, There is sufiicient area on each lot to meet all rnlnlmum setback and locatlon
requirements for the placernent of the individual sewage dlaposal syatem. The alope to
the West ls moderata and less than 6%.
ln general, the solls near each of the bullding envelopes should consist of a brownish
loam topsoll and a clay loam subsoll overlaylng a loam substratum to a depth of more
than five feet. There are no rocks or boulders present in the soil. The percolation rates
are likely to be moderatE, and the on-site disposal of wastewater flows should be feqsible.
This property is located within the soil survey mapped by the Soil Consenration Service.
It le expected that solltype "38", an Evanston loam, wlll predomlnate on the property,

The soil type, mapped on the bench whEre the bullding sits$ are to be located, is
e)pected to be a loam or clay loam, lt is derlved from the alluvlal deposltion of the
mineral formations of the area. Thls soil has only moderate limihtions for the lnstallation
of septlc systems, dependent on the moderatE permeability and somewhat sloilsr
percolatlon rates.
The soll is charac'terized as bllows:
1) Bedrock and groundwatEr are deep
2) There ars no coarae fragments over 3 inches in diameter
3) A low or moderatE ehrlnk.swell potential
4) Moderately slow permeabillty
5) The percentage of olay in the soll ls repoded between 15 and 35 percent
We have verl{led that a conventional lndlvldual septic system can be located in areas of
the property wtth sultable soils. There are exlstlng residences adJacent to the propefi,
all of which have conventlonal sefiic sptems, While the aoll on eaoh lot should be
sultable, well-devEloped, and sufilciently permeable, the applicant should be aware of
and prepare the fuilher slte investigations required before permiE and approvals oan be
lssued by Garfield County for the construc{lon of an individual s€wage disposal systrm.
A sita speclflc percolation test must be done on each lot to determlne the frnal deslgn of
tre septic systems before beginning the construc'tion of the resldences.
ln summary, lt ls our opinion that an on-slte wastewater disposal aystem can bE
construc'ted on each property that conform to the Garfleld County Regulatlons on
lndividuql Sewage Dleposal Systeme.
