OWTS Permit #: SEPT-7045

Michael,
On April 25, 2022, we visited the site at 477 County Road 112 near Carbondale in
Garfield County, Colorado to observe the OWTS installation pursuant to OWTS Permit # SEPT-
7045. At the time of our site visit, the contractor had installed the new sewer line, the new
cleanout adjacent to the building, a new 1,500-gallon two-compartment septic tank, the new
effluent line, the distribution box, and the four gravelless chamber trenches. The septic tank and
distribution box were installed level with access brought to grade. An effluent filter was present
in the outlet tee of the septic tank. The chamber trenches were level. Two of the trenches
consisted of 15 Quick4 chambers per trench, one consisted of 14 Quick4 chambers, and the
last trench consisted of 16 Quick4 chambers for 60 total chambers (720 ft2). The difference in
number of chambers per trench was due to the presence of a tree in one of the trench
alignments. Additionally, inspection ports were present at each end of each trench. In our
opinion, this system was installed in general conformance with Garfield County OWTS
Regulations. No further action or review from Garfield County Environmental Health is required
regarding this permit. Please provide an As-Built drawing of the system, when available, for our
files.
Thank you,
