OWTS Permit #: SEPT‐7322
December 5, 2022
Ryan and Lisa,
On September 7, 2022, we visited the site of the Briscoe Residence under construction at TBD
Garden Circle near New Castle in Garfield County, Colorado to observe the OWTS installation pursuant
to OWTS Permit # SEPT‐7322. At the time of our site visit, the contractor had installed the new sewer
line and cleanout adjacent to the residence, the new concrete 1,250‐gallon two‐compartment septic
tank, the new effluent line, the distribution box, and the six gravelless chamber trenches. The septic
tank and distribution box were installed level with access brought to grade. At the time of our site visit,
the contractor had not installed the inlet tee, the outlet tee, nor the effluent filter in the tank. The
contractor submitted photographs at a later date that showed these components installed as required.
The trenches were level, with 4‐feet between the trenches. The trenches consisted of 15 Infiltrator
Quick4 chambers per trench (90 total chambers, 1,080 ft2 total STA). 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. Please submit an As‐built drawing of the system when
available. No further action or review from Garfield County Environmental Health is required regarding
this permit.
Thank you,
Edward R. “Ted” White, P.E.
