Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as
submitted by Kumar & Assoc. March 17, 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 new three-bedroom residence. The system will consist of a new, three-
compartment 1,500-gallon septic tank set level with access at grade and a screened high-head pump
in the third chamber. Effluent will be pumped to a level manifold that will distribute effluent to
564ft2 of STA. The new STA will consist of a 12ft by 47ft unlined sand filter bed, consisting of two feet
of secondary sand media overlain by three perforated distribution laterals placed in 1ft of gravel
with at least 6 inches of gravel below each lateral and 2 inches of gravel above each lateral.
Distribution laterals are to be 1 ½ inch Schedule 40 PVC, with 5/32-inch orifices every 4-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.
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.
