Subsurface Investigation and Onsite Wastewater System Design
Shop Construction
585 Cindy's Way
Garfield County, Colorado
Curtis,
ALL SERVICE septic, LLC performed a subsurface investigation and an onsite wastewater system
(OWS) design for the subject residence. The property is located outside of Rifle, in an area where
OV/S and wells are necessary. A shop is proposed to the north of the residence. Design parameters
will be used from our original investigation for residence.
SITE CONDITIONS
A single-family residence presently exists and a shop have several sinks, and a bathroom is proposed.
The proposed drain field area is relatively flat. Water is provided by a well which is located to the
north of the residence.
SUBSURFACE
The subsurface was investigated by digging three percolation holes, as indicated, and by digging an eight
foot test pit. Subsurface conditions consisted ofa sandy root zone underlain by siþ clayey sand to 8 feet
in depth, the maximum depth explored. Percolation rates ranged from 40 to 20 minutes per inch (MPD.
A27 I|I4PI rate will be used to clesign the OV/S.
DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS
The OWS design is based on two sinks, and a full bathroom for the proposed shop. We will consider
5 persons per day using the shop per day. The installation must include a 1000-gallon, two-
compartment, precast concrete septic tank with an effluent filter, to be followed by gravelless
chamber trenches. Two gravelless chamber trenches, using 'Quick-4' InfiltratorrM chambers OR Arc-
36 Biodifuser chambers must be installed as indicated. There must be a fotal of Each trench must
Onsite Wastewater Systems
Page2
have 1 row of 16 chambers, for a total of 474 square feet (SF) of infiltrative area. A concrete
distribution box with a baffle must be installed.
Construction must be according to the Garfield County Environmental Health Department OV/S
regulations, the OWS Construction Permit provided by the county, and this design. This design for the
subject property, noted above, is valid only in conjunction with the approved Garfield County
Environmental Health Department.
OPERATION INFORMATION AND MAINTENANCE
The surface of the drain field should be seeded upon completion. Vegetation is an important factor in
drain field performance. Erosion control should be practiced prior to and during re-vegetation. Geo-
fabrics or plastics should not be used over the drain field. No heavy equipment, machinery, or
materials should be placed on backfilled drain field. Livestock should not graze on the drain field.
Plumbing fixtures should be checked to ensure that no additional water is being discharged to OWS.
For Example, a running toilet or leaky faucet can discharge hundreds of gallons of water a day and
harm a drain field.
The homeowner should pump the septic tank every two years and clean the effluent filter as needed.
Garbage disposal use should be minimized, and non-biodegradable materials should not be placed
into the OWS. Grease should not be placed in household drains. Loading from a water softener
should not be discharged into the OV/S. No hazardous wastes should be directed into the OWS.
Mechanical room drains should not discharge into the OV/S. The OV/S is engineered for domestic
waste only.
ADDITIONAL CONSTRUCTION NOTES
If design includes a pump, air release valves and weep holes should be installed to allow pump lines
to drain to minimize risk of freezing. Excavation equipment must not drive in excavation of drain
field due to the potential to compact soil. Extensions should be placed on all septic tank components
to allow access to them from existing grade. Precast concrete tanks and distribution boxes should be
used, unless plastic or fiberglass is required. Access to all tank compartments and distribution devices
is optimal.
INSTALLATION OBSERVATIONS
ALL SERVICE septic, LLC, and the county must view the OWS during construction. The OWS
observation should be performed before backfill, after placement of chambers and distribution pipes.
Septic tanks, distribution devices, pumps, dosing siphons, and other plumbing, as applicable, must
also be observed. ALL SERVICE septic, LLC should be notified 48 hours in advance to observe the
installation.

LIMITS:
The design is based on information submitted. If soil conditions encountered are different from
conditions described in report, ALL SERVICE septic, LLC should be notified. All OWS construction
must be according to the county regulations. Requirements not specified in this report must follow
county regulations. The installer should have documented and demonstrated knowledge of the
requirements and regulations of the county in which they are working'
