However, before we can finalize our review and issued permits, we need for the following items - all of which are legal requirements of the Plat - to be addressed: A. Soils Report - Please provide a copy of the site specific soils report as referenced on the Structural Engineer's drawings. B. Fire Sprinkler Syst€m - lnstallation of a fire sprinkler system complying with NFPA 13D is required for all lots in this subdivision exemption. Please contact Orin Moon, Fire Marshall with Colorado River Fire Rescue to discuss specific requirements for design & installation of fire sprinklers. As conditions to the building permit, the fire district will need to provide inspection sign-offs at frame inspection and prior to final building inspection/certificate of occupancy. I have copied Orrin on this email so that he is aware that you will be contacting him about this project. C. Septic Svstem - Septic system design is required to be Engineered by a Colorado licensed P.E. The engineered design will need to be provided for Building lnspector review and Engineer's final installation report is required prior to final building inspection/certificate of occupancy. Once we receive your reply and acknowledgement of these conditions and a copy of the soils report, we will be ready to finalize our review and issue permits.

It's good to know that you have Carla on board to provide an Engineered septic system, but I need to point out that she is the person who needs to perform the perc test prior to design. Our building inspectors only provide perc testing for septic systems they help design and they can't perform that function for Engineered systems. Again, Carla's septic system design will need to be provided for inspector review and a final installation report needs to be submitted prior to final building inspection.

Thanks so much, we had HP Kumar come do the field test last week. We are waiting on results. Adam is no longer the GC so I removed him from the email cahin. Rick Steffan is on board. Vy'e are going to have Garfield Co do the perc test for septic and we have Carla Ostberg onboard to design a system once we get the perc test done. I was told that we have to have the permit in place to do the perc test. We will contact Orin tomorrow to talk about specifications. Thank so much!!

Our building inspectors will assist homeowners with design and installation requirements for septic systems that are not otherwise required to be Engineered systems. However, they cannot assist you on this particular project because of the legal requirement for all lots within this subdivision exemption to be Engineered septic systems. You will need to hire out septic system Engineering services including perc testing, septic design and final installation report as stated in my previous email - with Carla or someone else licensed as a Professional Engineer in Colorado. This legal requirement is included on the plat (see attachment - plat notes #3 and #1L) and unfortunately we have no latitude but to insist on compliance with this legal requirement.

Will your engineer be able to do a design in house when the soil test comes in? If we don't need an engineered system, I think your recommendations should be workable. 'What are the associated costs if we go with you instead of Carla? Thanks for you help, Brian On Thu, Aug 30, 2018 at 9:53 AM Dave Argo <dargo@garfield-coun wrote: 1 Katie:
