On September 4, 2020, we visited the proposed Choma Residence at TBD Homestead
Road near Glenwood Springs in Garfield County, Colorado to observe the Onsite Wastewater
Treatment System (OWTS) installation pursuant to OWTS Permit # SEPT-6292. At the time of
our site visit, the contractor had installed the sewer line, a two compartment 1,500-gallon
concrete septic tank with risers added to bring access to grade, effluent lines, a new distribution
box with risers to bring access to grade, and six gravelless chamber trenches. The six
gravelless chamber trenches consist of 15 chambers per trench (90 chambers total). An effluent
filter was present on -site, but not installed, at the time of our site visit. The owner stated that the
filter would be installed in the outlet tee of the tank. The trenches were slightly out of level in a
few spots. The owner indicated the contractor would grade the trenches to be level. Finally, a
cleanout was not installed between the house and the septic tank. The owner provided a photo
showing the installation of the cleanout after our site visit, as well as the level graded trenches.
In our opinion, this system was installed in general conformance with Garfield County OWTS
Regulations. No further action or review from Garfield County Environmental Health is required
regarding this permit. Please submit an as -built drawing and the final report from the system
designer, once available.
Thank you-,'
