Gary,
On May 18, 2023, we visited the site of the Manchester Residence under construction at
800 Schooner Lane near Carbondale in Garfield County, Colorado to observe the OWTS
installation pursuant to OWTS Permit # SEPT-7135. At the time of our site visit, the contractor
had installed the new sewer line and cleanout adjacent to the residence, the new concrete
1,500-gallon two-compartment septic tank, the new effluent line, the distribution box, and the
five gravelless GeoMat trenches. The septic tank and distribution box were installed level with
access brought to grade. An effluent filter had been installed in the outlet tee of the septic tank.
The trenches were level, had a minimum of 6-inches of sand filter material placed over the
infiltrative soil, and had at least 4-feet between the trenches. The trenches were 3-feet wide by
56-feet long (840 ft2 STA). Additionally, inspection ports were present at each end of each
trench. We received an installation certification letter and as-built drawing from the designer
dated August 13, 2023. In our opinion, this system was installed in general conformance with
Garfield County OWTS Regulations.
Thank you,
