Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as
submitted by American GeoServices, LLC. dated October 30, 2023. Changes to the design and permit
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, three‐
compartment 1,000‐gallon septic tank with a high‐head effluent pump in the third compartment of
the tank. Effluent will be pumped to a manifold that will distribute effluent to 720 ft2 of STA. The
new STA will consist of two unlined sand filter beds, each bed consisting of two rows of 15 Quick4
chambers placed on 3‐feet of secondary sand material. Distribution laterals are to be 1 ½ inch
Schedule 40 PVC, with 3/16‐inch orifices 3‐feet on center and the laterals ending in flushing valves at
the distal end of the laterals. Laterals are to be hung from the underside of the chambers with
orifices facing upward. Inspection ports shall be installed at each end of each lateral. 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.
