Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as submitted by
CBO, Inc. dated September 26, 2024. 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 two-bedroom residence. The design includes a new, two-compartment
1,000-gallon septic tank set level with access to grade and an effluent filter in the outlet tee of the tank
followed by a 500-gallon pump chamber with a high-head pump in the pump chamber. Effluent will be
pumped to an Automatic Distributing Valve (ADV) set at the high point of the system to distribute
effluent to 375.67 ft2 of STA. The new STA will consist of two unlined sand filter beds consisting of three
feet deep of secondary sand media and two distribution laterals per bed placed in GeoMat distribution
media and measuring 7 feet x 26.83 feet. Transport lines from the pump chamber and distribution
laterals are to be 1 ½ inch Schedule 40 PVC, with 5/32-inch orifices every 2-feet on center and the laterals
ending in flushing valves at the distal end of the laterals. The orifices are to be facing downward.
Inspection ports are to be installed at each corner of the bed. The residual head (squirt height) at the end
of the system is to be 5-feet. Maintain all setbacks and elevations as designed.
To assist in scheduling, please contact Garfield County Public Health (970-945-6614 ext. 8150) to notify
the start of OWTS construction. Contact the designer and 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.
