Permit Conditions:
Permit Conditions: This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the design as
submitted by Mountain Cross Engineering, Inc. dated September 28, 2023. Changes must be
approved by Garfield County Public Health and the designer prior to construction.
The new OWTS will replace a failing system and serve an existing 3‐bedroom residence. The system
will consist of a new, three‐compartment minimum 1,000‐gallon septic tank set level with access to
grade with an effluent filter in the outlet tee of the second compartment of the tank and a dosing
siphon in the third compartment of the tank. Effluent will be siphon‐dosed to a distribution box set
level with access to grade that will distribute effluent to 816 ft2 of STA. The new STA will consist of 4
gravelless chamber trenches with each trench consisting of 17 Quick4 chambers, for a total of 68
Quick4 chambers. Inspection ports are to be installed at each end of each trench. Maintain all
setbacks and elevations as designed.
Contact Garfield County Public Health at least 48 hours prior to requesting final inspection of the
installed system prior to backfill. NO OWTS COMPONENT SHALL BE BACKFILLED WITHOUT PRIOR
APPROVAL FROM GARFIELD COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH AND THE DESIGNER.
