Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the design documents as submitted by CBO
Inc. dated April 4, 2026. Changes to the design and permit must be approved by Garfield County Public Health
prior to construction.
The new OWTS will serve an existing three-bedroom residence that will be adding a fourth bedroom. A new
1,000-gallon two compartment septic tank set level with access to grade and a screened high-head pump in the
second compartment of the tank will be installed to serve the new addition. Effluent will be pumped to the
existing sewer line at the high point of the system before the existing septic tank. The dose volume from the
pump shall be 67 gallons. The specified pump for the project must have a minimum 10 gallon-per-minute pump
rate with a total dynamic head of at least 6.7 feet. Effluent will gravity flow from the existing tank to a new
distribution box that will distribute effluent to 885 ft2 of STA. The new STA will consist of two 10 ft by 44.25 ft
bed constructed of GeoMat distribution media placed on 6” of secondary sand media. Each bed will contain
three 4-inch perforated distribution laterals placed 3 ft apart and 2 ft from the edges of the bed. Inspection ports
are to be installed in each corner of each bed at minimum. 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.
