Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as submitted by CBO,
Inc. dated January 17, 2025. Changes to the design and permit must be approved by Garfield County Public
Health and the designer prior to construction.
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF OWTS COMPONENTS, A SECOND PROFILE PIT SHALL BE EXCAVATED IN THE
AREA OF THE PROPOSED STA AND A REPORT OF SOIL CONDITIONS SHALL BE PROVIDED TO GCPH. The new
OWTS will serve a 4-bedroom residence that will result from a remodel. The new OWTS components will
consist of a 1,500-gallon septic tank on the CDPHE approved list, set level with access to grade. A new
screened high-head pump will be installed in the second chamber of the septic tank. Effluent will be pumped
to an automatic distributing valve set at the high point of the system that will distribute effluent to 660 ft2 of
STA. The new STA will consist of two 10ft by 33ft unlined sand filter beds, consisting of at least 3 feet of
secondary sand media overlain by perforated distribution laterals placed in GeoMat distribution media.
Distribution laterals are to be 1 ½ inch Schedule 40 PVC, with 5/32-inch orifices every 3-feet on center and the
laterals ending in flushing valves at the distal end. The orifices are to be facing downward with orifice shields.
Inspection ports are to be installed at each corner of the bed. Maintain all setbacks and elevations as designed.
The existing septic tank will be abandoned in accordance with Garfield County OWTS Regulations. Proof of
proper tank abandonment must be provided.
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.

In consideration of the issuance of the permit, the applicant hereby agrees to comply with all
laws and regulations related to the zoning, location, construction, and erection of the proposed
OWTS and associated structures for which this permit is granted. The applicant further agrees
that if the above said regulations are not fully complied with in the zoning, location, erection,
and construction of the above described OWTS and structure, the permit may then be revoked

The issuance of a permit and specifications of terms and conditions therein will not constitute
assumption of liability, nor create presumption that the local public health agency or its

not constitute a certification that the system, the equipment used in the system, or any
component used for system operation will ensure continuous compliance with the provision of
the OWTS Act, the regulations adopted thereunder, or any terms and conditions of a permit.
Permit Approval
Plans and specifications for the proposed OWTS have been reviewed and are considered
satisfactory. Permission is hereby given to the property owner(s) to perform the work indicated
in accordance with the Garfield County OWTS Regulation. This Permit will expire 1 year from
the date of issuance unless construction on the system has commenced. An "as-built" drawing
must be submitted and inspection of the system must be completed by GCPH before final
approval of the system will be issued.
