respectively.
Local-government agencies submit proposed subdivision applications and supporting
technical reports to the Colorado Geological Survey " ...tor evaluation of those geologic
factors which would have significant impact on the proposed use of the land," in accor-
dance with State statutes. The CGS reviews the submitted documents and serves as a
technical advisor to local-government planning agencies during the planning process.
Since 1984, the CGS has been required by law to recover the full direct cost of perform-
ing such reviews.
The adequate knowledge of a site's geology is essential for any development project. It
is needed at the start of the project in order to plan, design, and construct a safe devel-
opment. Proper planning for geological conditions can help developers and future
owners/users reduce unnecessary maintenance and/or repair costs.

project site adjacent to Sweetwater Creek. The valley floor alluvium localll, consists of
slightly bouldery, cobble to pebble gravel in a silty to clayey sand matrix. Cobbles and
boulders in the vailey tlocr alluvium are subangular to subrounded and represent varied
rock types i'om the upsteam drainage basirrs.
Colluvium: Coiiuvium (Qc) is present on hillsides in the northem part of the proposed
subdi,rlsion. The coiluvi';in locall;, consists of angular to subangular clasts of Belden
Formation derived sandstone, shale and limestorre in a sandy clay rnatrix.
Debris Fans: Debi'is fans (Qdf) are present below outcrops and at the mouths of
eptreffieral drainages in the northern par-t of the project area. The debris fans may be up to
aborrt 20 1'eet thick rn sorne parts of the project area. Materials in these deposits consist of
poorly sorted clast and matrix-supporteci, boulderl,, cobbl;z- pebble gravel in a sandy clay
to clayev seind rnatrix. Ciasts are mainly angular io suhangular Belden Fonnation deri'.zed
sandslone, shale and iiroestone.
Belden Formation: "fire Pennsyivarian age Beiderr Forrnation bedrock (Pb) outcrnps on

44-Forelle-Brownsto complex, 12 to 25 percent slopes. This map unit is on mountain side slopes.
Eleration is 5,500 to 7,500 feet. The average annual precipitation is 12 to 14 inches, the average annual air
temperature is 40 to 44 degrees F, and the average frost-free period is 85 b 105 days.
This unit is about 50 percent Forelle soil and 35 percent Brownsto soil.
Included in this unit are small areas of Tridell soils and basalt Rock outcrop on knolls. Also included are small
areas of Mussel and Morval soils in the more gently sloping areas. Included areas make up about 15 percent of
the totalacrcage.
The Forelle soil is deep and well drained. It furmed in mixed alluvium derived dominanUy from sedimenbry rocks.
Typically, the surface layer is brown loam about 6 inches thick. The subsoil is day loam about 24 inches thick
The substratum b a depth of 60 inches is loam.
Permeability is rnoderate in the Forelle soil. Available water capacity is high. The effective rmting depth is 60
inches or more. Runoff is rapid. The hazard of water erosbn generally is rnoderate, but it is se\Ere in areas that
contain volcanic ash.
The Brownsto soil is deep and well drained. It formed in alluvium derived dominandy from coarse texturcd,
calcareous sandstone and basalt. Typically, the upper part of the surface layer is light brownish gray gravelly
sandy loam about 4 inches thick. The lower paft is light brownish gray grauelly loam about 7 inches thick. The
upper 19 inches of the substratum is very gravelly sandy loam. The noct 12 inches is very gravelly loamy sand.
The lower part to a depth of 60 inches is gravelly sandy loam. A thin layer of partially decomposed needles,
twigs, and leaves b on the surface in many places.
Permeability is rnoderate in the Brownsto soil. Available water capacity ls low. The effective rooting depth is 60
inches or more. Runoff is rapid, and the hazard of water erosbn is moderate.
This unit is used as rangeland or as wildlife habitat
The potential ptant community on the Forelle soil is mainly westem wheatgrass, bluebunch wheatgrass, Indian
ricegrass, Douglas rabbitbrush, and WYoming big sagebrush. Mutbngr?rss, sfeambank wheatgrass, and winErfat
also are included. The average annual production of airdry vegetation is about 800 pounds per acre. If the range
condition deteriorates, Wyoming big sagebrush, Douglas rabbitbrush, and cheatgrass increase in abundance.
The potential plant community on the Brownsto soil is mainly need Ieandthread, Indian ricegrass, westem
wheagrass, and Wyoming big sagebrush. Bluebunch wheatgrass, bottlebrush squirrelbil, and scattered utah
juniper and pinlon pine also are included. The average annual production of air{ry, vegebtion is about 600
pounds per acre. If the range condition deEriorates, \IWoming big sagebrush, Douglas rabbitbrush, cheatgrass,
and annual weeds increase in abundance.
Suibble rnanagement practices include proper grazing use and a planned grazing system. If the quatity of range
vegetation has seriously deteriorated, seeding is needed. The main limitation is stoniness in areas of the
Brownsb soil. For successful seeding, a seedbed should be prepared and the seed drilled. In areas of the Forelle
soil, brush management improves deteriorated areas of range that are producing more woody shrubs than were
present in the potential plant community. The slope limits access by livesbck The limited accessibility resutB in
overgrazing of the less sloping areas.
If this unit is used for homesite dwelopment, the main limitation is the slope.
This map unit is in capability subclass Vie, noninigated. The Forelle soil is in the Rolling Loam range site, and the
Brownsto soil is in the Stony Foothills range site.

2A. Statement ofplan for dugmentation, including exchange:
This augmentation plan will replace out-of-priority depletions associated with domestic
water use for three residential lots locafua within the Applicants' property descnbed in Exhibit A
hereto. Each Jot may include a single-family residence and an accessory dweliing rmit.
Domestic water requirements for this project have been estimated at 500 gallons per day per 19t
(e.g., 5 persops per lot diverting 100 ga[ons per day). Wastewater treatuent will be by septic
Lja"u.U field iyste,m, and potable iysteur depletions are therefore estimated at 15Yo of the
water diverted. The projected fuIl-buildout diversion requirement for the project is 1.68 ac,re feet
annually (0.14 acre?".i moothly), and the projected fuIl-buildout depletioa is 0.25 acre feet
;rrlli (0.02r acre feet monthiy). These projections are gstimpted; actual diversions will be
neas.*ed and actual out-of-priority aepteuons will be replaced pursuant to this augmentation
plaD-
The Story Welis will be used for domestic uses only under t]ris augprentation plan. Thus,
.the domestic diver-sions and return flows will be constant year-round, and no depletive lag effect

Subiect: Percolation Testing, SweetwaterPerennials Subdivision, SrveetwaterRoad
(County Road 150), Garfield County, Colorado
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Story:
As requested by you, Hepworth - Pawlak Geotechnical,Inc.. performed percolation
testipg at the subject site. The work was done in addition to our agreement for
professional sen ices to you, dated February 4,2004. Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical
lnc., previously conducted a preliminary geologic review of the Perennials Subdivision
and reported oru findings in a letter dated April 20,2004, Job Number' 104 139'
Two sets of percolation tests were performed at the locations shown on Figures 1 and 2'
Two profile pits and six percolation test holes were excavated on May 20,2004' The
subsoils exposed in the Profile Pits were similar and consisted of clayey sandy gravel
r.vith cobbles ald small boulders to the bottom pit depths of 8 feet' Graphic logs of the
profile pits are shown on Figure 3. The results of a gfadation alalysis performed on a
sarnple of the clayey sandy gravel (rninus 5 inch fraction) obtained from tlre site are
presented on Figure 4. No free water was observed in the pits and the soils were slightly
moist to moist. Percolation test holes were hand dug in the bottom of shallow backhoe
pits.
Percolation testing was conducted on May 20,2004,by a representative of Hepworth -
Pawlak Geoteclutical, Inc. Tire percolation test results are sulilnarized on Table l '
Based on the subsurface conditiols encountered and the percolation test results, the tested
area should be suitable for a conventional infiltration septic disposal system'

The subsoils exposed iu the profile pits appear adequate to support spread footing
founclations irnposing a maximum bearing pressure of 1500 to 2000 psf. We should
observe all foundation excavations prior to placement of concrete to further evaluate the
subsoils for foundation suPPort.

Mr. Jim Hardcastle
Senior Planner
Garfield County Building & Planning Department
108 8d'Street, Suite 201
Glenwood Springs, CO 81601
Re: Sweetwater Gardens Fire Protection PIan
Dear Mr. Hardcastle:
Kevin Story has asked Wright Water Engineers, Inc. (WWE) to address the fire protection
available to the three-lot Sweetwater Gardens Subdivision located in Section 23, Township 3
South, Range 87 West of the 6th Principal Merid.ian. Section 9.7 of the Garfield County
Subdivision Regulations does not appear to have any set fire protection standards for a three-lot
rural subdivision located outside of a fire protection district.
Currently, there is only one single-family home in the subdivision. There is an existing pond
Iocated about 50 feet from the home. The pond was decreed in water court case No. 03CW247,
has a capacity of about 0.5 acre-feet (160,000 gallons), and is filled by the Gannon Ditch.
Paragraph 3 of the Judgment and Decree for the pond requires a "permanent power supply and
permanent pump systern" be an integral part of the pond.
The main purpose of the pond is operational irrigation flow; i.e., the pond can be filled and
refilled by a continuous Iow flow rate from the Gannon Ditch and water can be pumped out of
the pond at a higher rate for short periods of time. The pond will also function as a fire flow
supply and for water right augmentation purposes. It is WWE's understanding that Mr. Story
intends to keep at least 40,000 gallons of water in the pond at all times. Currently, there is
minimal fire protection for the existing home. However, the pond and pump system located near
the house provide some protection, which is much more than many isolated residential homes.
Mr. Story is aware of and has reviewed the "Living with Wildland Fire: A Guide for
Homeowners" publication by the Glenwood Springs Fire Department, et al. The brochure is
available at h ttp ://w wu,. g len \^,ood fi re. conr, under Pre ven t i on.

INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEM
OPEMTION AND MAINTENANCE
The following tips and suggestions are intended to increase the useful life of your engineered
sewage disposal system and to prevent disposal system failure due to neglect and abuse. The
design of this system is designed for a minimum number of persons occupying the stated structures.
A laroer occupancy rate. than the design rate may result in an overload of the septic system
and cause immediate system failure or a reduction of the life span of the leaching area.
MIN]MIZE THE LIQUlDS
Wastewater that enters the system can be minimized by practicing water conservation practices
within your home' The less wastewater you produce, the less wastewater there will be to ireat and
dispose.
1. Repair leaky fixtures. Check the toilet(s), by dropping food-coloring dye in thetank(s) and see if it shows up in the bowr prior to frushing.
2. Wash clothes only when you have a full load.
, 3. Take short showers instead of baths. Don't turn on the shower allthe way and turn itoff while lathering.
4. lnstall and use water saving fixtures and devices in your bathrooms, laundry rooms
and kitchens.
5. Do not let the water run while washing, shaving, brushing teeth, rinsing vegetables,dishes, etc. Use a stoppered basin where possible.
6- Provide adequate drainage around the engineered system area to divert surface
runoff from higher ground during storms or winter snowmelt.
MINIMIZE THE SOLIDS
Septic systems are "anaerobic" treatment systems. Digestion of solid materials is very slow andrequires air or "aerobic" conditions to "disappear". The less material you put into the system, the
less often it will require pumping. A good rule to follow is:
"Don't use your septic system for anything that can be disposed of in some other
way"
1- Avoid using a garbage disposal. Throw out scraps and other garbage with the trash.
2. Collect grease in a container rather than pouring it down the sink.
3. Minimize the disposal of paper products into the system. Non-degradable itemssuch as disposable diapers, sanitary napkins, tissues, cigarette blrtts and paper
towels are especially harmfulto the system.

Onlv three thinqs should go into the septic tank:
Human Wastes;
Toilet Paper; and
Water.
Ordinary household chemicals (bleaches, detergents & soaps) will not hurt the
bacteria in your system when not used in excessive amounts.
DO NOT DISPOSE OILS, PAINTS, THINNERS OR OTHER TOXTC LIQUIDS INTO
YOUR SYSTEM.
SEPTIC TANK ADDITIVES
Advertised chemical additives, bacteria, enzymes, etc. do not help solids breakdown in the septic
tank and should not be used to reduce the need for pumping the septic tank.
REGULAR INSPECTIONS
Septic Tank:
To inspect the septic tank, remove the manhole cover at the inlet end of the tank. Use a
shovel to push the scum layer away from the side of the tank and estimate its thickness. lf
the scum layer is 12" thick or more, arrange to have the septic tank pumped immediately.
Replace the cover and wash off the shovel and your hands.
For an average 3 or 4 bedroom residence, the pumping interval for the septic tank is usually
between 2 and 4 years. Annual inspection of the septic tank should become part of your
overall home maintenance routine.
Effluent Filter:
The effluent filter should be fitted with an alarm to warn when it is becoming plugged,
regardless if an alarm is present or not, the filter should be inspected and cleaned following
the manufacturers recommendations, or at least once per year.
Dosing Tank or Pump Station:
To inspect the dosing tank, follow the same instructions for the septic tank. However, there
should not be a scum layer or sediments inside the tank. Check to see if the water level
markings are consistent on the side of the tank. Variability indicates that the siphon or
effluent pump is not operating properly. lf the water level is near the top of the markings,
wait for the siphon or pump to operate and watch for problems. The siphon has an overflow
pipe in which the effluent will flow out of the tank by gravity. Should this be occurring, have
the tank pumped and check the siphon openings to see if they are plugged,
Filter Mound or Trench:

Check the observation tubes regularly. Standing water near the same elevation as the
natural soil surface (or higher) may be an indication of trouble.
Look for seePage or excessive wetness near the base of the filter mound or trench area.
SUMMARY
I
^ -"""-spection of the septic tank, dosing tank (or pump station), filter mound or trench area
should be made each year. These inspections are best made during the wet season of the year.
I lf these items are not routinely inspected, solids can carry over into the disposal areas fromiheI septic tank and clog the system resulting in system failure and health hazard risks. ln areas with
potentially high ground water, the septic tank should be pumped during low water months such
I as September, October, and November. Pumping during high water months may cause the
f septic tank to float out of the ground.

Re: Story Subdivision Preliminary Plan
Section 24, T3S, R87W,6TH PM
W. Division 5, W. District 53
Dear Mr. Jarman:
We have reviewed the above-referenced proposal to subdivide a parcel of approximately
18.203 acres into 3 residential lots with one single-family dwelling and one accessory dwelling unit
on each lot. An existing residence on the property is currently supplied by an existing exempt well
(Permit No. 158441). The applicants propose the construction of two new wells to supply water
ior domestic uses to the residences on the new lots. Sewage disposal is to be through individual
septic systems. lrrigation water will be provided through condjtionalwater rights as decreed in
Water Cogrt Case No. O3CW247.
Review of the decree in Case No. 03CW247 shows that the applicants were granted an
absolute water right for the existing well (Story Well No. 1), in the amount of 15 gpm, for domestic
use in a single-family dwelling. Conditional rights were granted as follows: for the Story Well No.
1 , 15 gpm for domestic use in an accessory dwelling; for the Story Well Nos. 2 and 3, 15 gpm
(each well) for domestic use in a single-family dwelling and an accessory dwelling unit; for the
Story Pond Nos. 1 and 2, a total surface area (all ponds) of 1.1 acres and total storage capacity
(all ponds) of 4.0 acre-feet for supplemental and new irrigation of 7 acres, augmentation, aesthetic
purposes and stockwater; and for the Gannon Ditch Story Enlargement, 1.0 cfs for supplemental
and new inigation of 7 acres and fill and refill rights for the Story Ponds. Note that the decree
does not allow any outside uses (e.9., irrigation) for water from the wells. The decree also
approved a plan for augmentation, under which the Story Well Nos. 1-3 will be augmented by the
Story Ponds, and by releases from Wolford Mountain Reservoir and Ruedi Reservoir pursuant to
a contract with the Colorado River Water Conservation District for 0.3 acre-feet of annual
augmentation and exchange releases. An approved copy of the contract was included with the
submittal package.
According to the decree in Case No. 03CW247,"Well permits issued pursuant to $37-
gO-137(2), 10 C.R.S. (2003) and this,plan for augmentation must be obtained prior to the
construction and/or operation of the Story Well Nos. 1 ,2 and 3 pursuant to this plan for
augmentation...No such well permits shall be issued until the Story Pond Nos. 1 and/or 2have
been constructed and filled with adequate replacement water and written notice has been
provided to the Division Engineer. Such notice shall include an as-built stage capacity table
and estimate of the active capacity of the pond(s), and confirmation that a permanent power

Re: Sweetwater Perennials
Please take into consideration the following conditions'
All culverts beneath access points should be of Comrgated Steel Pipe'
All culverts should extend beyond the edge of the access roadway sufficiently
to prevent slough from congesting the inlet or outlet.
AII culverts should be 12 inches or larger-
All culverts should have a minimuur cover equal to half the diameter of the
pipe. i.e. an l8 inch culvert would require nine inches of cover to finish grade.
All culverts should have a minimum of 1% flow.
All ditches entering to and exiting from culverts should be chased to daylight
in order to facilitate flow.
Access' should be constructed with a compacted sub-grade, then filled with a
compacted six inch lift of three inch minus, then topped with at least a three
inchlayer of compacted3/t roadbase (class 6) material. Compaction should
test at not less thartglYo of modified proctor.
Access' should be flared where they meet the county road and should be of
sufficient width to conform with sub-division standards'
g. All areas of county road which encroach into or pass through private property
should have right of way deeded to the county at 30 foot from centerline.
10. Stop signs should be placed where the subdivision accesses the county road.

Re: Proposed Sweetwater Perennial (Story) Subdivision Preliminary Plan
Dear Fred,
Thank you for the opportunity to cornment on the proposed Preliminary Plan for Sweetwater
Perennials, which would subdivide an 18.2 acre property located just west of Eagle County -
Garfield County line on Sweetwater Road.
We have noted that the current proposal is essentially the same as that we reviewed at Sketch
Plan. As such, we would offer the same response corlments that were sent to you in our letter of
May 23,2003 (also attached). Lacking improvements to Sweetwater Road, we would prefer to
not increase traffic on this rural travel route by any significant amount. It would appear,
however, that impacts from a project of this scale should be minimal. Pursuant to our earlier
comments, we trust that your office will work with the applicant to protect wildlife, the riparian
corridor and water quality in the stream as they move towards final plat.
Should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at (970) 328-8751.
Sincerely,
Cliff Simonton, AICP

buildings be located outside of the designated debris flow area or otherwise shall require debris
flow mitigation designed by a Colorado Registered Professional Engineer. The debris flow area
and appropriate plat note should be added to the final plat.
The drainage report analyzes only the 100 year event and concludes that the existing County
Road culvert is not adequate. The analysis should include the 25 year storm event to assess
whether the culvert is adequate to pass the 25 year flood without overtopping the road.
SOILSIGEOLOGY
The proposed subdivision is subject to debris flow (as indicated in the drainage analysis), hydro-
compressive soils, and expansive soils. Due to the potential for relatively large differential
settlement or heave, site specific soil and foundation studies at proposed building sites are
recommended. The standard county plat note requiring a site specific geotechnical investigation
to be submitted with the building permit application should be added to the final plat.
WETLANDS
There does not appear to be any Section 404 permitting issues for this project.
TRAFF!C'ROADS
We did not flnd a traffic study in the submittal. Since the subdivision consists of two new lots, the
impacts are assumed to be minimal. The road impact fee will be based on a residential vehicle
trip generation of 9.57 ADT per unit. This equates to 48 vehicle trips per day for 5 new units. The
staff report for the Sketch Plan meeting indicates that there will be only one access point onto
Sweetwater Road. A shared access road and easement must be shown on the plat. Such road
must be designed in accordance with County Road standards in Section 9.35 of the subdivision
regulations.
Please call if you have any questions or need additional information.
Sincerely,

t ldeally the location should avoid debris flow completely, othenruise mitigation can be
designed. Examples of appropriate mitigation would be a robust wall, which would
I deflect the debris flow. Alternatively integrating a heavy reinforced concrete watl into the
I exposed face of the building, and ensuring there are no openings, which would allow a
mudflow to enter.
I We would recommend that during the development stage of the lots the location of any
occupied buildings be optimized and, if needed, specific mitigation be designed by an
I Engineer registeied in the State of Colorado as part of the detailed preparation ofr or,r,ng prans.
