Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as
submitted by High Country Engineering dated January 2025. 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 three-bedroom ADU and a barn with bathrooms, showers, and laundry
facilities. The new OWTS components consist of two sewer lines which will be constructed of
Schedule 40 PVC. Two new 1,000-gallon two compartment septic tanks set level with access to grade
with an effluent filter installed in the outlet tee of the tanks. The septic tanks shall be on the
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s approved septic tank list. Effluent from
both tanks will tie to a common effluent line and will gravity flow to a distribution box that will
distribute effluent to 1,152 ft2 of STA. The new STA area will consist of four gravelless chamber
trenches, each trench consisting of 24 ‘Quick 4’ chambers per trench (96 chambers total). Inspection
ports will be installed at each end of each trench. 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.
