RE: Perdue Shop/AD OWTS
OWTS Permit No. SEPT-6853
BUI #21033
Dear Ted:
The purpose of this letter is to discuss our observation of the installation of the Onsite Wastewater
Treatment System (OWTS) for the Perdue Shop/ADU near Battlement Mesa in Garfield County, CO.
Boundaries Unlimited Inc (BUI) observed the installation of the cleanout, the 1,000-gallon septic tank,
4ӯ piping, the distribution box and 36 ARC low profile gravelless chambers units on October 20,
2021.
The tank riser tees and effluent filter were onsite, but had not been installed. The owner was advised
to complete the installation of the riser tees/effluent filter per the design drawings, to drill 6 to 8 1/2"Ø
holes in the inspection port pipe sections that fit inside the gravelless chamber units, and to rake
more of the soil smears off the trench sidewalls.
Based on the above site inspections, the OWTS appears to have been installed in conformance with
the intent of the design and current Garfield County regulations. Please see the attached asbuilt
(based on field gps) and images of the installation.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
BOUNDARIES UNLIMITED INC.
