3 Seven Oaks Road
Glenwood Springs, CO 81601
Shalynn,
ALL SERVICE septic, LLC observed the previously installed onsite wastewater treatment system
(OWTS) on May 21, 2104 for the subject property. An accessory building with a sink and toilet,
used by 2 -people daily, presently exists. RotoRooter pumped the septic tank in the summer of 2013.
The OWTS had not been used until April 2014; therefore, the septic tank had not yet been refilled.
The septic tank appeared to be in good condition at the time of the observation.
Recommendations concerning continued use of the OWTS were presented in our letter dated August
10, 2012. Implementation of the following recommendations was verified during our recent visit.
• Install a 2 -way clean-out within 5 -feet of the building.

inches.
Depth of burial is not less than 24 -inches.
• Install effluent filter on outlet tee of septic tank.

• Trench area should be covered with native vegetation.

• No heavy equipment should be used over absorption area and no large animals should be
corralled over the absorption area.
This area does not appear to be in a traffic area and horses appear to have been removed from the
property.
The well for the property is located near the main residence, greater than 100 -feet from the existing
OWTS that serves the accessory structure. This observation is not a guarantee of workmanship
and/or parts and materials. ALL SERVICE septic, LLC should be notified if changes are made to the
OWTS in the future. Any additional OWTS construction must be according to the county regulations.
LIMITS:

county in which they are working. The quality of the installation is dependent of the expertise of the
installer, soil type, and weather conditions.
