Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the design and revised plans as
submitted by Sopris Engineering, LLC. dated July 19 (report and design) and August 29 (plans), 2022.
Changes must be approved by Garfield County Public Health and the designer prior to construction.
The new OWTS will serve a new three‐bedroom residence. The system will consist of a new, two‐
compartment 1,060‐gallon septic tank set level with access to grade with an effluent filter in the
outlet tee of the tank followed by a 540‐gallon pump chamber with a high‐head pump in the tank.
Effluent will be pressure‐dosed to an Automatic Distributing Valve to distribute effluent to 564 ft2 of
STA. The new STA will consist of four two‐row GeoMat beds placed on 6‐inches of secondary sand
media over the natural soils. Each bed will be 6.5 feet wide by 21 feet long. The pump and effluent
lines will be constructed of 1.5‐inch diameter Schedule 40 PVC. The laterals in the beds shall have
3/16‐inch diameter orifices facing down spaced every 2 feet on‐center (O.C.), installed on GeoMat
placed directly on the sand. Inspection ports are to be installed at each corner of each bed. Maintain
all setbacks and elevations as designed.
Contact the designer and Garfield County Public Health at least 48 hours prior to requesting final
inspection of the installed system prior to backfill.

In consideration of the issuance of the permit, the applicant hereby agrees to comply with all

that if the above said regulations are not fully complied with in the zoning, location, erection
and construction of the above described OWTS and structure, the permit may then be revoked

The issuance of a permit and specifications of terms and conditions therein will not constitute
assumption of liability, nor create presumption that the local public health agency or its

the OWTS Act, the regulations adopted thereunder, or any terms and conditions of a permit.
Permit Approval

satisfactory. Permission is hereby given to the property owner(s) to perform the work indicated
in accordance with the Garfield County OWTS Regulation. This Permit will expire 1 year from

must be submitted and inspection of the system must be completed by GCPH before final
