HomeMy WebLinkAboutEngineer's Installation Report 04.17.2018April 17,2018 Mr. Andy Schwalter Garfield County Community Development Building Official 108 8th St., Suite 401 Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 Reference : Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Permit #SEPT -03-18-5147 Work under this permit was completed at 0283 Sunny Acres Rd. on April 11 and 12, 2018. The Miles Rippy Excavating Company performed all of the work. Tom Metheny, registered P.E. and designer of the septic system repair, was on site throughout the course of the work. All work was completed in accordance with the permit application details or as directed by the Engineer as excavation exposed the system. Significant intrusion of tree roots into the original infiltrator system was found. Although complete failure of the system had not occurred, root growth had choked off the flow of effluent into the leach zone.The primary origin of the roots was from volunteer Box Elder and Aspen trees that grew near the leach area. The trees are being removed. The original septic system, which proved to be perfectly adequate for 25 years of service, had three leach fingers. One original finger was abandoned, two original fingers were repaired and enlarged, and a new finger was added. The original design required 249 sq.ft. of leach area. The repaired septic system adds 79 sq.ft., for a total of 328 sq.ft. of leach area. Other improvements made include a clean-out Y installed in the line from the house to the tank, as well as an effluent screen at the septic tank outlet. The 1,000 gallon septic tank has readily accessible chambers for yearly inspection and bi-yearly pumping. Three attachments are included for your information: 1.Plan view of the residence which shows the current leach finger locations. 2.A typical cross section showing the design of the leach fingers. 3.A copy of my Colorado P.E. license, No. P.E. 00166538.
