RE: ADU Application
Garfield County File No. GAPA 8374
Enclosed, please find the Final Engineering Report on the Water Quality & Production. I have
also provided additional information as requested.
Access to the County Road and Average Daily Trips
Access to County Road 115 is via Homestead Ranch HOA Road and a short section of the BLM
existing Road. Mountain Services provided you with a copy of Homestead's plat. The BLM Road
is utilized by High Aspen Ranch HOA and Homestead HOA and the general public.
ADT
The Average Daily trips generated by this project will be 9.57 per your chart 7-107. The ROW is
60 feet wide and the actual road width is approximately 30 feet wide. This appears to meet your
requirements.
Impact Analysis
The project is simply a 660 square foot residential unit in an existing structure. The impact will
be similar to a 1 bedroom residential unit. The subdivision, when approved in the 1970s, allowed
for a caretaker unit and was approved or allowable by Garfield County. You were previously
provided a copy of the original covenants.
Grading and Drainage
The building drains to the driveway ditch that has been in place since the house was built. This is
a relatively flat site and the existing building where the ADU is being built has not generated
problems or erosion. It has been in place for over eight years. A topo is provided. You have a
survey showing the location of improvements as well.

Waste Water Management
A new septic system will be built for the ADU. There is adequate room and the ADU is over 600+
feet from the well. A perc test will be performed in the spring. The main house is on a septic
system and has performed adequately for 20+ years.
Improvement & Development Agreement
I would like to request a waiver of this requirement.

RE: Spracher Well Pump Test
Dear Page:
(970) 945-5700
(970) 945-1253 Fax
At your request, Zancanella and Associates monitored the pump test of the well on your property
at 341 Homestead Road, Glenwood Springs, Colorado. Samuelson Pump Co. conducted the 4 -
hour pump test on the well on December 2, 2015. The well was drilled under Well Permit
#102611. We have summarized the pump test data below. Water quality samples were collected
and shipped to ACZ Laboratories in Steamboat Springs, Colorado for laboratory analysis.
Well Construction
The well is situated in the SE1/4 of the NE1/4 of Section 36, Township 6 South, Range 88 West,
6th P.M. at a point 3090 FSL and 940 FEL of Section 36, as shown in Figure 1. The well was
completed on July 17, 1978 to a total depth of 80 feet by Golden Eagle Drilling Corporation.
Information about the well construction was obtained from the Well Completion and Pump
Installation Report (attached) on file with from the State Engineer's Office. The well was drilled
with a hole diameter of 7 7/8 inches from 0 to 28 feet. Steel casing with a diameter of 7 inches
was installed in the upper 28 feet of the well. Cement grout was placed around the casing
between the depths of 0 and 20 feet to prevent surface water infiltration into the well. Drilling
continued from 28 feet to 80 feet with a hole diameter of 6 1/4 inches. Steel perforated casing
with a diameter of 5 9/16 inches was installed from 25 feet to 80 feet.
The driller's log indicates that the well was drilled entirely in "sand, gravel and boulders". The
geologic map of the Carbondale Quadrangle (Kirkham and Widmann, 2008) indicates lava flows
of trachyandesite and basaltic composition. Figure 2 presents a detailed well diagram.
Pump Test
The static water level prior to the pump test was 12.1 feet below the top of the well casing. A
pump that was already in the well was used for the test with its intake at a depth of 76 feet. This
setup allowed for a maximum drawdown of 63.9 (76 minus 12.1) feet.
The pump test began at 10:08 AM on December 2, 2015 and pumping ended at 2:08 PM for a full
4 hours of pumping. The test was started at a pumping rate of approximately 12.3 gallons per
minute and was continuously pumped at that rate for the remainder of the test. A total of
approximately 2960 gallons was pumped from the well during the test.
Before the test began, a pressure transducer with a data logger was placed in the well. The
transducer measured the water level in the well every minute for the duration of the test. The
data has been compensated for changes in barometric pressure using another transducer located
at the surface near the well. The well was also tested manually using well sounding equipment
to verify the electronic data. The water level drawdown (the distance between the static water
level and the water level during the pumping portion of the test) is shown in Figure 3. A maximum
drawdown of 17.3 feet below the static water level was achieved during the 4 hours of pumping.
This pumping level was equal to 27.1% of the total available drawdown. The well was able to
sustain the 12.3 gallons per minute pumping rate as evidenced by the nearly level line of the
drawdown graph shown in Figure 3 after the first 30 minutes of pumping.
Recovery was monitored in the well by the transducer and by manual readings for one hour after
pumping stopped. The maximum measured water level during the recovery period was 12.0 feet.
The well demonstrated a normal recovery. We estimate that the well can be pumped at the rate
of 12.3 gpm for extended periods. The water level during recovery is illustrated in Figure 4.
Water Quality
During the pump test, water samples were collected and sent to ACZ Laboratories in Steamboat
Springs, Colorado for analysis. The results of those analyses are attached as Table 1. All of the
analytical results are below the applicable Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) as established
by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment and are considered safe levels for drinking water.
Water Use
It is our understanding that you intend to add one ADU that, along with the existing residence, will
use water from the Spracher well. The well is permitted as and exempt domestic well on a 35
acre tract and is therefore capable of serving up to 3 single family dwellings and up to one acre
of gardens and lawns. The existing structure and the ADU would comprise 2 EQRs, which are
generally regarded as using 350 gallons per day each, or 700 gallons per day.
Summary and Conclusions
Data from the Spracher well pump test indicate that the well should be able to supply the existing
residence, the proposed ADU and conservative outside watering requirements.
If you have any questions, please contact our office at (970) 945-5700.
Very truly yours,
