INTRODUCTION
This report provides the results of an onsite wastewater treatment system (OWTS) design for the
proposed residence to be located on Lot 3, Filing 3, Mineota Ridge Estates, address TBD
Mineota Drive, Garfield County, Colorado. The purpose of the report is to provide design details
for the OWTS in accordance with the Garfield County Environmental Health Department Onsite
Wastewater Treatment System Regulations and the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environmental Regulation #43. The services were performed as part of our agreement for
professional services to Jose H. Salinas dated January 14,2022-
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The residence will be a single-family structure located on the lot as shown on Figure 1. The
residence will have three bedrooms, and the OWTS will be designed for three bedrooms. The
proposed soil treatment area (STA) for the OWTS will be located to the north of the residence as
shown on Figure 1. Water for the residence will be provided from a public supply and route of
the water supply line to the residence have not been designed at the time of this report.
If proposed construction is different than that described, we should be contacted to re-evaluate
our design recommendations.
SITE CONDITIONS
The property was vacant at the time of our site visit for the field exploration. The ground surface
is covered with scattered grasses, weeds, and sage brush. The terrain is moderately to sloping
down to the north. Steeper slopes are present further uphill to the north.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
The field exploration for the OWTS was conducted on March 22,2022. Two profile pits (Profile
Pits 1 and2) were excavated with a backhoe at the approximate locations shown on Figure I to
evaluate the subsurface conditions at the planned soil treatment area for the OWTS. The pits
were logged by a representative of Kumar & Associates. Logs of the profile pits are provided
below.

Log of Profile Pit 2
The soils encountered in profile pits, below about 1 feet of organic topsoil, consisted of Sandy
Loam down to the explored pit depths of 7 and 8 feet. Hydrometer and gradation analyses were
performed on a disturbed bulk sample of the soils from Profile Pit I from 4 to 5 feet depth with
the results provided on Figure 2. The tested sample (minus No. 10 size sieve fraction) classifies
as Loam per the USDA system. No free water was encountered in the pits nor indications of
seasonal high groundwater were observed at the time of the pit excavations.
Based on the subsurface conditions and laboratory testing, the soils at the STA have been
classified as Type 2 per State regulations, which equates to a long-term acceptance rate (LTAR)
of 0.60 gallons per square foot per day.
OWTS ANALYSIS
Based on the site conditions and profile pit evaluations, the evaluated area should be suitable for
a conventional infiltration disposal system. The STA will consist of chambers in a trench
configuration based in the Loam soils. The STA will be sized for three bedrooms (six persons)
and an average daily flow of 75 gallons per person, and an LTAR of 0.60 gallons per square foot
per day for the natural Loam soils.
The effluent will gravity flow from the residence to the septic tank for primary treatment and
then gravity flow to the STA for dispersal and final treatment. The STA will consist of two
trenches with Infiltrator Quick 4 Plus Standard chambers. Equal distribution will be provided to
the chambers and trenches by a distribution box.
The route of the planned water supply line to the residence is currently not known. The required
setback of the water line from the septic tank is 10 feet, 5 feet for sewer and effluent lines, and
25 feetfrom the STA. We should be notified for additional recommendations if any part of the
OWTS is within these minimum setbacks.
DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
The design recommendations presented below are based on the proposed construction, the site
and subsurface conditions encountered and our experience in the area. A layout ofthe proposed
OWTS components is provided on Figure 1. If conditions encountered during construction are
different than those that are described in this report, we should be contacted to re-evaluate our
design recommendations.
Kumar & Associates, lnc.Project No.22-7-121
-J-
SOIL TREATMENT AREA
o The STA will consist of two trenches with22Infiltrator Quick 4 Plus Standard chambers
placed in each trench (44 chambers total) in the native soils. Equal distribution will be
provided to the trenches by a distribution box.
o The STA was sized based on an LTAR of 0.60 gallons per square feet per day.
. Each chamber was allowed 12 square feet of area. A30% reduction of the STA size was
applied for use of Infiltrator chambers in a trench configuration. The total STA design
size is 528 square feet. Soil treatment area calculations are shown on Figure 3.
o A minimum of four feet of undisturbed soil between the trenches is required.
e The trench cut depths should be a maximum of 3 feet-
o The trenches should be oriented along ground contours to minimize soil cut and cover.
o The base and sidewalls of the trench excavations should be scarified prior to the chamber
placement.
o A minimum of 12 inches and a maximum of 24 inches of cover soil should be placed
over the chambers.
o Backfill should be graded to deflect surface water away from the STA and should be
sloped at 3 horizontal to 1 vertical or flatter. A swale to divert surface water flow away
from the STA may be needed along the upslope side.
o Disturbed soil should be re-vegetated as soon as possible with a native grass mix. No
trees, shrubs or other plants with deep roots should be planted on or near the STA as this
may damage the system piPing.
o Four-inch diameter inspection ports should be installed vertically into the knockouts
provided in the chamber end caps. Install ports at each end of the trench. The inspection
port piping should be screwed into the top to the chambers and should not extend down to
the ground surface inside the chambers. The inspection ports should extend at least
8 inches above the finished ground surface or be protected in a valve box at finished
grade.
o The STA must be a minimum of 5 feet from the septic tank.
o The STA must be a minimum of 25 feet from any potable water supply lines.
o The STA must be a minimum of 20 feet from the residence.
o The STA must be a minimum of 100 feet from any well or spring.
o A plan view of the STA is presented on Figure 4 and a cross section of the STA is
presented on Figure 5.
OWTS COMPONENTS
Recommended OWTS components provided below are based on our design details and our
experience with the specific component manufacturers. Equivalent components may be feasible
but need to be approved by us prior to construction.
Kumar & Associatet, lnc.Project No.22-7-121
-4-
Septic Tank
o A Valley Precast 1,000 gallon, two-chamber septic tank should be used for primary
treatment and dosing to the STA. A detail of the tank is provided as an attachment.
o An efTluent filter should be installed in the tank outlet tee.
o The tank must be a minimum of 5 feet from the residence.
o The tank must be a minimum of l0 feet from any potable water supply lines.
o The tank must be a minimum of 50 feet from any well or spring.
o The tank must be set level. The excavation bottom must be free of large rocks or other
objects that could damage the tank during placement. A road base or gravel bedding
material may be needed to prevent tank damage during placement and act as a leveling
course.
o The tank lids must extend to final surface grade and made to be easily located.
o Install the tank with 2 feet minimum cover soil for frost protection. Maximum tank soil
cover is 4 feet.
Sewer Pipe
o The sewer line to the septic tank should not be less than the diameter of the building
drains and not less than 4 inches in diameter'
o The sewer pipe should have a rating of SDR35 or stronger. Schedule 40 PVC pipe is
required beneath any driveway surfaces.
o The sewer pipe should be sloped between ZYoto 4o/oto help limit disturbance of solids in
the tank and potential sewage bypass of the first chamber of the tank. If a steeper slope is
needed, this can be accomplished with vertical step-downs in the sewer line.
o A minimum 24 inches of cover soil should be provided over the sewer pipe. Paved areas,
patios or other areas without vegetative cover may be more susceptible to frost and we
recommend 48 inches of soil cover over the sewer pipe in these areas, and the pipe be
insulated on top and sides with 2-inch-thick blue foam insulation board. If adequate soil
cover is not possible, we should be contacted for re-evaluation prior to installation.
o The sewer pipe should be bedded in compactedt/o-inch road base or native soils provided
that the native soils contain no angular rocks or rocks larger than 2Yz-inches in diameter
to help prevent settlement of the pipe. Sags in the pipe could cause standing effluent to
freeze and damage the piping.
o Install cleanout pipes within 5 feet of the building foundation, where the sewer pipe
bends 90 degrees or more and every 100 feet of sewer pipe.
o All 90-degree bends should be installed using a 90-degree long-sweep or by using two
45-degree elbows.
o The sewer line location shown on Figure 1 is considered conceptual. We assume that
there will be only one sewer line exiting the residence. It is the responsibility of the
Kumar & Associates, lnc.Projec{ No.22-7-121
5
owner/contractors to locate all sewer line exit locations and connections to the septic
tank. We should be notified if there are other sewer lines exiting the building.
Effluent Transport Piping
o The effluent transport pipe should be 4-inch diameter SDR35 piping sloped at a2o/o
minimum to flow from the septic tank to the distribution box and from the distribution
box to each trench. Piping should extend at least 6 inches into the top knockout provided
in the Infiltrator end caps and be screwed in place. Splash plates should be installed
beneath the inlet piping to help limit scouring of the infiltrative soil surface in the
chambers.
o The effluent transport pipe should be bedded in compacted3k-inch road base or native
soils provided that the native soils contain no angular rocks or rocks larger than
2/zinches in diameter to help prevent settlement of the pipe. Sags could cause standing
effluent to freeze and damage to the piping.
o A minimum 18 inches of cover soil should be provided over the effluent transport pipe.
Paved areas, patios or other areas without vegetative cover may be more susceptible to
frost. We recommend 48 inches of soil cover over the effluent pipe and insulation with at
least2 inches of rigid foam insulation in these areas. If adequate cover soil is not
possible, we should re-evaluate the condition prior to installation-
r Schedule 40 PVC pipe is required underneath driveway surfaces and should be provided
with at least 48 inches of soil cover, and be insulated on top and sides with 2-inch-thick
rigid foam insulation board.
o All 90-degree bends should be installed using a 90 degree long-sweep or by using two
45-degree elbows.
Distribution Box
o The distribution box will be used to equally divide effluent flow between the trenches.
We recommend the Tuf-Tite 4-Hole Distribution Box since it is easily accessible from
ground surface for maintenance. A copy of the distribution box detail is provided as an
attachment to this rePort.
o The distribution box outlet pipes should be equipped with Tuf-Tite speed levelers for ease
of initial setup and adiustment over time.
o The distribution box should be a minimum of 18 inches below grade with risers and an
access lid at or above grade.
o The distribution box must be accessible from gtound surface for inspection and
maintenance per the State guidelines.
o The effluent line from the septic tank should be directed downward into the distribution
box with a 9O-degree elbow inside the box.
Kumar & Associates, lnc.Project No.22-l-121
-6-
o The distribution box must be installed level on a compacted road base subgrade to ensure
equal effluent distribution. If settlement of the distribution box occurs, unequal effluent
distribution may take place which could cause hydraulic overload of one of the trenches
and potential failure. The distribution box should be monitored periodically, and the
speed levelers should be adjusted as necessary for levelling.
The ground surface above and around the distribution box should be graded to drain away
surface water to prevent standing water near the distribution box which could freeze or
cause settlement.
o
OWTS OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
The OWTS will require periodic inspection and maintenance to function properly. A properly
designed, installed and maintained system can greatly increase its lifespan. The level of
maintenance will vary depending on the complexity of the system and water use habits of the
residents. We recommend that an OWTS Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Manual be
developed. Depending on the complexity of the system, a contract with an OWTS maintenance
provider may be prudent. Below are some basic recommendations for the OWTS O&M.
OWTS HOUSEHOLD OPERATTON
o Use of high efficiency water fixtures is recommended to decrease the hydraulic load on
the OWTS system.
o Fix plumbing leaks immediately as this may cause a hydraulic overload of the soil
absorption system.
o Do not irrigate the area on top of or directly upgradient of the soil absorption field as this
may cause a hydraulic overload.
o Do not dispose of household waste down drains as this may clog or damage OWTS
components. Examples of household waste includes: dental floss, cotton swabs, coffee
grounds, paper towels, feminine products and many other kitchen and bath items.
o Use of kitchen garbage disposals is not recommended. If a garbage disposal is utilized,
kitchen wastewater should be screened thoroughly. Many kitchen solids are not
decomposed in the septic tank and may cause increased tank pumping frequency.
o Do not dispose of household chemicals, greases, oils, paints, hot tub water or water
softener backwash in household drains. A separate drywell, if feasible, may be necessary
for hot tub water or water softener backwash disposal'
o Limit the use of bleach as this may harm useful bacteria in the septic tank and soil
absorption system.
o Liquid dishwasher and clothes washer detergent is recommended for households served
by an OWTS. Clay substances used as fillers in powder detergents may result in
clogging of the soils absorption system.
Kumar & Associates, lnc.Project No.22-T-121
-7-
The effluent in septic tanks can freeze during extended periods of non-use in cold
weather.
OWTS MAINTENANCE
o Inspect the septic tank, distribution box and STA at least annually for problems or signs
of failure.
o The effluent filter for the tank should be cleaned at least annually by spray washing solids
into the first chamber of the septic tank.
o The septic tank should be pumped and cleaned every 3 to 5 years depending on use.
Longer pumping intervals may increase the amount of solids that reach the STA, which
may shorten its life span.
. Pumping of the septic tank should take place when the level of the sludge and scum
layers combined take up 25 to 33Vo of the capacity of the first chamber of the tank.
OWTS CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION
The Garfield County Environmental Health Department requires that the designer of the system
provide a record drawing and certification of the OWTS construction (As-Built inspection).
We should be provided with at least 48-hour notice prior to the installer needing the inspections.
Prior to issuance of our certification letter, we require observation of all system components
prior to backfill. The number of site visits required for the inspection will depend on the
installer's construction schedule.
LINIITATIONS
We have conducted this design in accordance with generally accepted engineering principles and
practices in this areaatthis time. We make no warranty either expressed or implied. The
recommendations provided in this report are based on the site conditions, profile pit evaluations
and soil texture analysis, the proposed construction and our experience in the area. Variations in
the subsurface conditions may not become evident until excavation is performed. If conditions
encountered during construction appear different from those described in this report, we should
be notified so that re-evaluation of the recommendations may be made.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for design purposes. We are not
responsible for technical interpretations by others of our information. As the project evolves, we
should provide continued consultation and field services during construction to review and
monitor the implementation of our recommendations, and to verif that the recommendations
have been appropriately interpreted. Significant design changes may require additional analysis
or modifications to our design.
Kumar & Associateo, lnc.Prcjec{ No.22-7-121

It is our opinion that the designed location of the OWTS components does not violate any
setback requirernents of the curreirt Garfield County Regulations. Below is a table of common
minimum hoiznntal setbacks to OWTS components. Referto the Garfield County Regulations
for a complete list of required setbacks. We recommend the OWTS components be surveyed by
a Professional Colorado Land Surveyor.
