5587 County Road 320
Rifle, CO 81650
OWTS Permit #: SEPT-9310
December 2, 2025
On October 9, 2025, we visited the site of the 3-bedroom residence under construction at 5587 County
Road 320 near Rifle in Garfield County, Colorado to observe the OWTS installation pursuant to OWTS
Permit # SEPT-9310. The system was designed by WestWater Engineering and installed by Four
Brothers Concrete and Firewood, LLC. We received an as-built drawing of the constructed system and a
letter certifying that the system was constructed in compliance with the permitted design from the OWTS
designer dated October 10, 2025.
During our inspections, we observed the new sewer line and cleanout adjacent to the building, the new
concrete 1,250-gallon two-compartment septic tank with an effluent filter in the outlet tee of the second
compartment of the tank, the new effluent line, the new distribution box, and the Soil Treatment Area
(STA). The septic tank and distribution box were installed level with access brought to grade. The STA
consisted of four gravelless chamber trenches with 9 Infiltrator Quick4 chambers per trench (36 total
chambers, 432 ft2 total STA). Additionally, inspection ports were present at the distal end of each trench.
As required by Garfield County OWTS Regulation Section 43.4.F.3, based on our final inspection
observations, this OWTS was installed according to the permit requirements and regulations.
Thank you,
