Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the design as submitted by
Caliber Engineering dated February 26, 2023. Changes must be approved by Garfield County Public
Health and the designer prior to construction.
The new OWTS will serve a new 6‐bedroom residence. The system will consist of a new two‐
compartment minimum 1,750‐gallon septic tank set level with access to the compartments provided
at grade and a high‐head pump in the second compartment of the tank. Effluent will be pressure‐
dosed to an Automatic Distribution Valve (ADV) set level with access to grade at the high point of the
system that will distribute effluent to 3,375 ft2 of STA. The new STA will consist of three gravel beds,
each measuring 12’ wide by 93.75’ long. The pump line shall consist of 1.5‐inch diameter Schedule
40 PVC. Laterals shall consist of 1.5‐inch diameter Schedule 40 PVC and have 1/8‐inch diameter
orifices facing up, with the exception of every fifth orifice facing down, every four‐feet on‐center
(O.C.). The laterals will be encased in 1‐foot thickness of gravel, with a minimum 2” of gravel above
the laterals and a minimum of 8” of gravel below the laterals. Laterals shall end in a sweeping ell
facing up with a ball valve for flushing. Inspection ports shall 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.
