I. THE SUBDIVISION PROCESS
In order to subdivide land in Garfield County, an Applicant is required to complete the following land use
processes in the following order: 1) Sketch Plan Review Process, 2) Preliminary Plan Review Process, and 3)
Final Plat Review Process. This section will briefly describe the nature of each process and provide general
direction including subdivision regulation citations to a potential applicant requesting subdivision approval in
Garfield County. All of the Garfield County Zoning and Subdivision Regulations are located for purchase at
the Planning Department and can also be found on the World Wide Web at the following address:
hUp:llwww.garfield-countv.com/building and planning/index.htm
Submit 3 copies of this completed application form and all the required submittal materials.
A) The Sketch Plan Review (Section 3:00 of the Subdivision Regulations)
1. Purpose
The purpose of the Sketch Plan process is to allow an individual an opportunity to
propose a subdivision in a "sketch" format to the Planning Department and the Garfield
County Planning Commission in order to obtain a cursory review for compliance with the
County's land use review documents, regulations, and policies to identify any issues that
would need to be addressed if the proposed subdivision were to be pursued.
2. Applicability
Any individual proposing a subdivision in Garfield County is required to complete the
Sketch Plan review process as the first step in Garfield County's Subdivision process.
More specifically, Garfield County defines a subdivision (Section 2:20.48) as the division
of a lot, tract or parcel of land into two (2) or more lots, tracts, parcels or separate
interests, or the use of any parcel of land for condominiums, apartments or other
multiple-dwelling units, as further defined by Colorado state law.
3. Application I Submittal Requirements
In order to apply for a Sketch Plan Review an Applicant is responsible for reviewing
Section 3:00 of the Subdivision Regulations and providing enough information to the
Planning Department in the application to conduct a thorough review and provide the
resulting comments to the Planning Commission for their review and comments.
Specifically, Section 3:30, 3:32, and 3:40 of the Subdivision Regulations contain the
specific information required to be submitted to the Planning Department in order to
satisfy the application requirements in addition to the information requested on this
application form.
4. Process I Public Meetinq
The Sketch Plan review process is considered a 1-step process because the application
is reviewed only by the Planning Commission at a public meeting. In order to appear
before the Planning CommiSSion, an applicant will have submitted all required
application submittal reqUirements mentioned above to the Planning Department Staff.
Once submitted, Staff will have 15 working days to review the application to determine if
all the required submittal information has been submitted as required.
3
If Staff determines that all the required information has been submitted, a letter will be
sent to the applicant indicating the application has been deemed "technically complete."
It is at this pOint Staff will also indicate when the application has been scheduled to be
reviewed before the Planning Commission and will request the applicant supply
additional copies to provide the Commission for their review.
If Staff determines that all the required information has not been submitted, a letter will
be sent to the applicant indicating the application does not comply with the submittal
requirements and therefore has determined the application to be "technically
incomplete." The letter will also outline the applications deficiencies so that the applicant
knows what additional information needs to be submitted. At this point, the applicant
has 6 months (180 days) to provide the necessary information to the Planning
Department to remedy the application so that it may be deemed technically complete. If
the application has not been deemed technically complete within this time, the
application will be terminated.
Once the application has been deemed technically complete and a date has been
established as to when the Planning Commission will review the application, Staff will
conduct a land use review of the application using the County's land use regulatory
documents including the Zoning Resolution, Subdivision Regulations, and the
Comprehensive Plan of 2000. In addition, Staff will also consider referral comments
provided from a variety of state and local agencies who may also review the application.
As a result, Staff will write a Memorandum on the proposed subdivision to the Planning
Commission containing the results on the land use analysis. This Memorandum will also
be furnished in advance to the applicant.
At the date and time set for the public meeting before the Planning Commission, Staff
will present the findings in the Memorandum and the applicant will be required to present
the proposed subdivision and respond to comments and questions provided by the
Planning Commission. The comments provided to the Applicant by the Planning
Department and the Planning Commission as a result of the Sketch Plan Process will be
kept on file in the Planning Department for 1 -year from the meeting date before the
Planning Commission. If an Applicant does not submit a Preliminary Plan application to
the Planning Department within the 1 -year timeframe, the Sketch Plan file will be closed
and the Applicant will need to reapply for a Sketch Plan review prior to a Preliminary
Plan review.
B) Preliminary Plan Review (Section 4:00 of the Subdivision Regulations)
1. Purpose
The purpose of the Preliminary Plan review process is to conduct a thorough review of
the many aspects that are associated with dividing land in Garfield County for the
purposes of residential, commercial, and industrial development. This is the most
intensive review step where the Building and Planning Staff, the Planning Commission,
and the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) will conduct a thorough review of all
the issues associated with the proposed subdivision against the County's regulatory
requirements. Ultimately, the purpose of this process is to identify all the major issues in
the proposed subdivision by using the County's Zoning Resolution, Subdivision
4
Regulations, Comprehensive Plan of 2000, as well as other state and local referral
agencies that will provide comments on any issues raised in their review. This is the
process that will either approve or deny the application request.
2. Applicability
Any individual proposing a subdivision in Garfield County is required to complete the
Preliminary Plan review process as the second and most intensive step in Garfield
County's Subdivision process. More specifically, Garfield County defines a subdivision
as the division of a lot, tract or parcel of land into two (2) or more lots, tracts, parcels or
separate interests, or the use of any parcel of land for condominiums, apartments or
other multiple-dwelling units, as further defined by Colorado state law.
3. Application / Submittal Requirements
In order to apply for a Preliminary Plan Review, an Applicant must have already
completed the Sketch Plan review process addressed in Section 3:00 of the Subdivision
Regulations.
An applicant requesting Preliminary Plan review will be required to submit this
application form, all the required submittal information contained in Sections 4:40 to 4:94
of the Subdivision Regulations as well as address all of the applicable Design and
Improvement Standards in Section 9:00 of the Subdivision Regulations.
In addition to the substantive submittal information related to the proposed subdivision
project itself, an applicant is required to complete all the public notice requirements so
that legal public hearings can be held before the Planning Commission and the sacc
which is addressed in Sections 4:20 -4:31 of the Subdivision Regulations.
4. Process / Public Hearings
The Preliminary Plan review process is considered a 2-step process because the
application is ultimately reviewed by two County decision-making entities during public
hearings: the Planning Commission who makes a recommendation to the sacc.
In order to obtain dates for the public hearings before the Planning Commission and the
sacc, an applicant will have submitted all required application submittal requirements
mentioned above to the Planning Department Staff. Once submitted, Staff will have 30
working days to review the application to determine if all the required submittal
information has been submitted as required.
If Staff determines that all the required information has been submitted, a letter will be
sent to the applicant indicating the application has been deemed "technically complete."
It is at this point Staff will also indicate when the application has been scheduled to be
reviewed before the Planning Commission I sacc. Additionally, Staff will provide the
applicant with the notice forms to be mailed, published, and posted.
5
If Staff determines that all the required information has not been submitted, a letter will
be sent to the applicant indicating the application does not comply with the submittal
requirements and therefore has determined the application to be "technically
incomplete." The letter will also outline the applications deficiencies so that the applicant
knows what additional information needs to be sUbmitted. At this point, the applicant
has 6 months (180 days) to provide the necessary information to the Planning
Department to remedy the application so that it may be deemed technically complete. If
the application has not been deemed technically complete within this time, the
application will be terminated.
Once the application has been deemed technically complete and a date has been
established as to when the Planning Commission I BOCC will review the application,
Staff will conduct a land use review of the application using the County's land use
regulatory documents including the Zoning Resolution, Subdivision Regulations, and the
Comprehensive Plan of 2000. In addition, Staff will also consider referral comments
provided from a variety of state and local agencies who may also review the application.
As a result, Staff will write a Memorandum on the proposed subdivision to the Planning
Commission I BOCC containing the results on the land use analysis. This Memorandum
will also be furnished in advance to the applicant prior to the public hearings.
As mentioned above, Staff makes a recommendation to the Planning Commission and
the BOCC regarding the issues raised in the analysis of the proposed subdivision. The
Applicant will first propose the subdivision to the Planning Commission who is
responsible for making a recommendation of approval, approval with conditions, or
denial to the BOCC. Next, the application will be reviewed by the BOCC during a
regular public hearing. The BOCC will consider the recommendations from the Planning
Staff and the Planning CommisSion, the information presented by the applicant, and the
public. As a result, the BOCC is the final decision-making entity regarding the proposed
subdivision and will either approve, approve with conditions, or deny the application.
If the BOCC approves the subdivision application at the public hearing, the approval
shall be valid for a period not to exceed one (1) year from the date of Board approval, or
conditional approval, unless an extension of not more than one (1) year is granted by the
Board prior to the expiration of the period of approval. (See the specific information
provided in Section 4:34 of the Subdivision Regulations.) Following the hearing, Staff
will provide a resolution signed by the BOCC which memorializes the action taken by the
Board with any I all conditions which will be recorded in the Clerk and Recorder's Office.
Once an applicant has Preliminary Plan approval, they are required to complete the third
and final step in the County's Subdivision Process: Final Plat Review.
C) Final Plat Review (Section 5:00 of the Subdivision Regulations)
1. Purpose
The purpose of the Final Plat review process is to provide the applicant with a
mechanism to prove to the County that all the conditions of approval required during the
Preliminary Plan review process have been met I addressed to the satisfaction of the
Planning Staff and the BOCC. This being the case, the chairman of the BOCC will sign
6
the Final Plat and have it recorded memorializing the subdivision approval granted by
the BOCC. This is the last step in the County's subdivision process.
2. Applicability
Any individual proposing a subdivision in Garfield County is required to complete the
Final Plat review process as the third and last step in Garfield County's Subdivision
process. More specifically, Garfield County defines a subdivision as the division of a lot,
tract or parcel of land into two (2) or more lots, tracts, parcels or separate interests, or
the use of any parcel of land for condominiums, apartments or other multiple-dwelling
units, as further defined by Colorado state law.
3. Application I Submiltal Requirements
In order to apply for a Final Plat review, an Applicant must have already completed the
Preliminary Plan review process addressed in Section 4:00 of the Subdivision
Regulations.
An applicant requesting Final Plat review will be required to submit this application form,
all the required submittal information contained in Section 5:00 of the Subdivision
Regulations and responses to all the conditions of approval required as part of the
Preliminary Plan review process.
4. Process
The Final Plat review process is considered a 1-step process because the application is
ultimately reviewed by the Building and Planning Staff and presented to the BOCC for
their signature if the application satisfies all the required submittal information to the
satisfaction of the Building and Planning Department.
If Staff determines that all the required information has been submitted, a letter will be
sent to the applicant indicating the application has been deemed "technically complete."
II is at this point Staff will also indicate when the application has been scheduled to be
presented to the BOCC for signature. (This is not a public hearing or meeting and
therefore does not require public notice.)
If Staff determines that all the required information has not been submitted, a leiter will
be sent to the applicant indicating the application does not comply with the submittal
requirements and therefore has determined the application to be "technically
incomplete." The letter will also outline the applications deficiencies so that the applicant
knows what additional information needs to be submitted.
Once the application has been deemed technically complete and a date has been
established as to when the BOCC will review the Final Plat, Staff will review the
application I Final Plat in terms of adequacy to determine if all the submittal information
satisfies the Final plat requirements as well as the responses to the conditions of
approval. During this review, Staff will forward the Final Plat the County Surveyor for
review and a Signature. In the event there are additional questions or clarification issues
to be addressed, the County Surveyor will generally contact the applicant to have the
plat adjusted as necessary. Once, Staff has completed the review and all required
information has been submitted to the satisfaction of the Planning Department and the
7
county Surveyor has signed the Final Plat in Mylar form, it will be scheduled at the next
BOCC meeting to be placed on the consent agenda with a request to authorize the
Chairman of the BOCC to sign the plat.
Once the Final Plat is signed, it is then recorded by the County Clerk in the Clerk and
Recorder's Office for a fee of $11 for the first sheet and $10 for each additional sheet
thereafter. This fee shall be paid by the applicant. This act of recording the signed Final
Plat represents the completion of the Garfield County Subdivision Process.
Please refer to the specific language in the Final Plat portion (Section 5:00) of the
Subdivision Regulations for specific time lines and additional responsibilities required of
the applicant to complete the Final Plat process.
Please Note: This information presented above is to be used as a
general guide for an applicant considering a subdivision in Garfield
County. It is highly recommended that an applicant either purchase
the Garfield County Zoning Resolution and Subdivision Regulations
or access them on-line at:
hUp:llwww.garfield-county.com/buildingandplanning/index.htm
in order to ascertain all the necessary requirements for each of the
three steps including Sketch Plan Review, Preliminary Plan Review,
and Final Plat Review.
I have read the statements above and have provided the required attached information
which is correct and accurate to the best of my knowledge.

GARFIELD COUNTY BUILDING AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT
FEE SCHEDULE
Garfield County, pursuant to Board of County Commissioners ("Board") Resolution No. 98-09, has established
a fee structure ("Base Fee") for the processing of each type of subdivision and land use applications.
The Base Fee is an estimate of the average number of hours of staff time devoted to an application, multiplied
by an hourly rate for the personnel involved. The Board recognized that the subdivision and land use
application processing time will vary and that an applicant should pay for the total cost of the review which
may require additional billing. Hourly rates based on the hourly salary, and fringe benefits costs of the
respective positions combined with an hourly overhead cost for the office will be used to establish the actual
cost of County staff time devoted to the review of a particular project.
Actual staff time spent will be charged against the Base Fee. After the Base Fee has been expended, the
applicant will be billed based on actual staff hours accrued. Any billing shall be paid in full prior to final
consideration of any land use permit, zoning amendment or subdivision plan. If an applicant has previously
failed to pay application fees as required, no new or additional applications will be accepted for processing until
the outstanding fees are paid.
Checks, including the appropriate Base Fee set forth below, must be submitted with each land use application,
and made payable to the Garfield County Treasurer. Applications will not be accepted without the required
application fee. Base Fees are non-refundable in full, unless a written request for withdraw from the applicant
is submitted prior the initial review of the application materials.
Applications must include an Agreement for Payment Form ("Agreement") set forth below. The Agreement
establishes the applicant as being responsible for payment of all costs associated with processing the
application. The Agreement must be signed by the party responsible for payment and submitted with the
application in order for it to be accepted.
The complete fee schedule for subdivision and land use applications is attached.

SKETCH PLAN SUBMITTAL
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
September 15, 2008
WATER
Highline Ranch Subdivision will be served by one existing individual well and cistern on
the proposed lot 3 and proposed wells currently permitted for drilling on lots 1 and 2.
The individual water demand of the subdivision will be typical of a single-family
residential community with a single additional dwelling unit available for each lot. Each
single-family lot can be expected to demand approximately 420 gallons/day/person based
on a 3.5 persons/residence occupancy rate. That would require that the each well be able
to supply a usage of 2,940 gallons per day. The individual lot owners for the
maintenance and treatment of the wells. Wells will be installed and tested prior to final
plat and must show that the flows will produce enough water to serve the needs of both
units per lot.
The property will be required (unless the Rife Fire District can confirm that there is an
existing 30,000 gallon fire protection source within 1 mile of the property) to install
either a 30,000 gallon fire protection tank with dry hydrant or improve the existing pond
to be a lined storage pond with dry hydrant.
SEWER
The Highline Ranch Subdivision will be served by Individual Sewage Disposal Systems
(ISDS). The sewage generated by the subdivision will be typical of a single-family
residential community. Each single-family lot can be expected to generate approximately
350 gallons/day based on a 3.5 persons/residence occupancy rate. Individual lot owners
will be responsible for the installation of an engineered ISDS. Maintenance of each
system will be the responsibility of the individual lot owner and as outlined in the
protective covenants ofthe subdivision.
SCS MAPS AND TABLES
See attached drainage plan by High Country Engineering, Inc., and the soils report
provided by Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical Inc.
SHALLOW UTILITIES
Telephone -N/ A
Electric -XCEL, lot 3 has existing service off pole along Cedar Breaks Road and lots 1
and 2 will serve off the same pole
Gas-N/A
Cable TV -N/A
There is not any nearby gas lines so it will be the responsibility of the individual
homeowner to install and maintain a service agreement for liquid propane service.
IMPACT ON LAKES, STREAMS, AND TOPOGRAPHY
The development will have minimal impact on drainages running through the property.
Lots are laid out such that adequate building envelope is available without impacting the
existing drainages. The driveways will follow existing topography as much as acceptable
engineering practices allow. Where drainage crossings are required, adequately sized
culverts will be installed to convey the historical flows through the property. There are no
lakes within or around the property.
RADIATION HAZARD
See attached radiation hazard report, provided by Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical Inc.
OFF-STREET PARKING
Only single-family residential uses are proposed. Parking will be provided within the
property and no parking will be allowed along the existing frontage roads.
ACCESS
All 3 lots on the development can be accessed by either Mustang Mesa Trail or Cedar
Breaks Road. These roads are served by Grass Mesa Road. These roads are all covered
by access easements for public use. This network of roads is served by the Marnm Creek
Road to the south.
VEGETATION
The site lies on top of Grass Mesa. The existing vegetation includes only sagebrush and
grasses. An existing pond exists on the site along the drainage ditch along the center of
the property. This pond is currently only filled with runoff water.

INDIVIDUAL SEPTIC DISPOSAL SYSTEM PLAN
FOR
HIGHLINE RANCH SUBDIVISION
Highline Ranch Subdivision is located near Rifle, County of Garfield, State of Colorado. This
subdivision will be served by Individual Sewage Disposal Systems (ISDS) since the lot sizes are
consistent with the Garfield County Zoning Resolution. ISDS design, installation, and
maintenance will be the responsibility of the individual lot owner. ISDS systems will be
designed by a professional engineer registered in the State of Colorado per Garfield County or
State Regulations. The installation will be inspected and certified by a professional engineer
registered in the State of Colorado and/or his representative. Maintenance shall be performed by
a licensed contractor in the State of Colorado engaged in the business of cleaning and
maintaining ISDS systems.
Highline Ranch Subdivision is located in Garfield County. Any ISDS questions or concerns
should be directed to Garfield County representatives and Garfield County code should be
referenced. Garfield County contact information is:

INTRODUCTION
An Individual Sewage Disposal System (ISDS), also referred to as a "septic system", receives
waste water and solids from a building'S plumbing facilities (bathrooms, kitchens, shower,
laundry), treats, and then disposes of the effluent from this waste, by permitting it to absorb into
the natural soils within the lot. "Treatment" is accomplished by bacterial action in the "septic" or
"treatment" tank, and by bacteria within the soil surrounding the effluent absorption system, the
"drain-field." This bacterial action is needed to reduce the level of pathogens in the effluent
discharges from the waste system into the soil. The principal components of a private on-site
waste disposal system usually include the following:
• Piping
• Septic Tank
• Effluent Filter
• Absorption Field
However, many variations on this general scheme are used and special equipment and numerous
systems can be designed and utilized for problem or difficult sites.
HOUSEHOLD USE
Your septic system is designed to handle human waste, toilet paper and water from plumbing
fixtures such as toilets, baths, and sinks. Household cleaners, detergents and bleach will not
damage your system ifused in moderation. However, biodegradable and environmentally
friendly soaps, detergents and other products are recommended. If your septic field is inundated
with harsh chemicals or overloaded with detergents and soaps, your septic system function may
be impaired or field failure may occur. Never pour oil, cooking grease, paint, or insecticides into
your plumbing system. These items can inhibit the bacteria which are so critical to the proper
functioning of your system and/or plug the pores of your system.
Non-degradable paper products, such as diapers, sanitary napkins or tampons, and paper towels
are harmful to your system. Also refrain from introducing any other non-biodegradable
substances such as condoms, plastic baggies, plastic film-wrap, or cigarette butts. These items
can cause serious clogging problems. A garbage disposal can be used if your septic system was
designed around it; however, you should have your tank pumped more frequently if large
particles are present within the effluent.
Your system is also designed to handle a certain volume of water. If you consistently overload
your septic system, you will cause premature failure. A frequent source of overload is leaking
plumbing fixtures and water treatment systems. This can amount to hundreds of extra gallons of
water going into your septic system each month. Leaks should be repaired immediately.
Other home recommendations for reducing wastewater flow are; installing water-saving devices
in your shower heads and faucets and lowering the amount of water hitting the system from the
laundry by spreading your weekly washing over several days rather than doing it all within a
short time period.
SEPTIC TANK
The bacteria that thrive in a septic tank are called "anaerobic bacteria" because they do not
require oxygen. These bacteria are essential to the proper functioning of a septic system as they
degrade and decompose the solids. When too much solid material accumulates in the tank over a
period of years, it begins to wash out of the tank and into the drain-field with the normal liquid
effluent. The solids clog the drain-field absorption rates into the natural soils are reduced. As
more solids flow from the tank, the drain-field will eventually not be able to absorb the liquid
effluent, and the drain-field will fail. This is the most common cause of drain-field failure. Your
drain field should have monitoring wells located at the far end of the field. These wells can help
detect or prevent a field failure prior to its occurrence. A professional field maintenance
company should be scheduled for regular maintenance and well monitoring. It is suggested that
you have your septic tank pumped every 2 years on a regular maintenance schedule.
•
DRAINFIELD AREA
The drain-field is ideally located in a sunny open area for maximum evaporation. Trees and
shrubs should not be planted near the drain-field as root intrusion may impair the drain-field.
Any plants that do not have deep roots can be planted over a drain-field. Grasses and ground
cover provide the highest level of evapo-transpiration (the cycle of plants taking moisture from
the soil by their root systems and giving it offto the atmosphere using the sun's energy) without
the complication of root systems clogging drainpipes and gravel beds. Mulched areas of flower
beds do hold moisture and decrease drain-field efficiency. Walkways, patios, parking areas,
decks or other permanent structures should not be constructed over either the septic tank or the
drain-field. Vehicle traffic should be kept off ofthe drain-field and heavytruckslequipment
should be kept a minimum of 10 horizontal feet away from the drain-field area. Heavy vehicles
can cause the drain-field to collapse. Rainwater or other drainage water should be diverted from
the drain-field area. The drain-field is designed to meet the capacity of waste water coming from
the house. Additional water from poor drainage may cause premature field failure.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF ISDS
(PER COLORADO STATE BOARD OF HEALTH, CHAPTER 25, ARTICLE 10 -REVISED 2000)
A. Responsibility: The owner and the party in possession of real property upon which an individual
sewage disposal system is used, shall be jointly and severally responsible for operation and
maintenance of the system unless jurisdiction for responsibility has been transferred to a public,
quasi-public, or political subdivision. The person denying such responsibility shall bear the burden
of pro off or such denial upon establishment of ownership or possessory rights in the property served
by the system.
B. Service Label: For treatment plants utilizing mechanical apparatus or under a service policy, a
clearly visible, permanently attached label or plate giving instructions for obtaining service shall be
placed at a conspicuous location.
C. Maintenance and Cleaning: When directed by the local health department, for the purpose of
obtaining compliance with rules and regulations, the owner or user of a system shall provide for
maintenance and cleaning of an individual sewage disposal system and shall notifY the local health
department upon completion of any maintenance work and report to said department and submit such
evidence of compliance with any maintenance and cleaning schedule in the form and as the
department requires.
I. The local board of health may adopt rules and regulations for the scheduling of
maintenance and cleaning of systems and practices adequate to insure proper functioning of
acceptable systems, and may require proof of proper maintenance and cleaning, pursuant to
any such schedules and practices, to be submitted periodically to the local department of
health by the owner of the system.
D. Monitoring and Sampling:
L Reasonable periodic collection and testing by the local health department of effluent
samples from individual sewage disposal systems for which monitoring of effluent is
necessary in order to insure compliance with the provisions of rules and regulations may be
performed not more than two times a year, except when required by the health officer in
conjunction with an enforcement action.
2. Any owner or occupant of property on which an individual sewage disposal system is
located may request the local health department to collect and test an effluent sample from
the system. The local health department may perform such collection and testing services.
3. If the local health department collects and tests effluent samples, a fee not to exceed that
which is allowed by 25-10-101 et. seq. (as amended) CoRS. 1973, may be charged for each
sample collected and tested. Payment of such charge may be stated in the permit as a
condition for its continued use.
E. Disposal of Waste Materials:
Disposal of waste materials removed from a system in the process of maintenance or leaning shall be
accomplished at a site approved by local county officials in a manner which does not create a hazard
to the public health, a nuisance or an undue risk of pollution and which complies with state and local
rules and regulations. (See Sludge Regulations and Solid Waste Regulations.)
F. No Discharge is Permitted Which Does not Comply With Rules and Regulations:
No sewage or effluent shall be permitted to be discharged into or upon the surface of the ground or
into state waters unless the sewage system and effluent meets the minimum requirements· of
applicable rules and regulations.
G. Termination of Use of System:
The contents of a septic tank, vault, or seepage pit, the use of which has been terminated, shall be
properly disposed of whereupon the emptied tank, vault, or pit shall be filled with soil or rock, or the
health officer may require the tank or vault to be removed and disposed of properly.
SUMMARY
ISDS systems are a good alternative to homeowners who do not have access to a community sewage
disposal system. With the proper monitoring and maintenance of your ISDS system, may years of
trouble free functioning can be had out of your ISDS system.

Subject: Gamma Radiation Survey, Proposed 3 Lot Subdivision, Lot 6A, Grass
Mesa Subdivision, Intersection of Mustang Mesa Trail and Cedar Breaks
Road, Garfield County, Colorado
Dear Mr. May;
As requested, Hepworth-PaWlak Geotechnical, Inc. petfunned a gamma radiation survey
at the subject site on August 14, 2008. The survey Was performed in accordance with our
proposal t.O you dated July 9,2008, Proposal No. 101-08.
GlUl)llla radiation measurements were taken on a 200 foot grid pattern using a Ludlum
Model 3 survey meterandLudlum Model 44-9 .detector. The readings were taken at
.about 2\1, feet above the ground surface,. The radiation readings are shown on Figure I.
The72 readings taken at the site ranged from 0.025 to 0.04 millirems per hour. A
background reading taken nearby indicated a value of 0.025 millirems per hour. The
gamma radiation survey readings at the subject site appear to be typical of the background
level in the area.
Based on the gamma radiation survey, radiation mitigation does not appear to he,needed,
however, there is a potential that radon gas could be present in the area. It is difficult to
assess future radon gas concentrations in buildings before the buildings are constructed.
Testing for radon gas JeyeJs could he done in the completed building. New buildings are
often designed with provisions for ventilation oflower enclosed (crawlspace or basement)
areas should post construction testing show unacceptable radon gas concentration.
If you have any questions,or need further .assistance, please call our office.
