Permit Conditions:
Permit Conditions: This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the redesign
as submitted by SGM, Inc. on August 8, 2023. Changes must be approved by Garfield County Public
Health and the designer prior to construction.
The new OWTS will serve a new 3‐bedroom residence but was designed for a 4‐bedroom residence.
The system will consist of a new, two‐compartment minimum 1,250‐gallon septic tank set level with
access to grade and an effluent filter in the outlet tee of the tank. Effluent will gravity flow to a pump
chamber with a high‐head pump set level with access to grade that will distribute effluent to 384 ft2
of STA. The new STA will consist of 2 3‐feet deep unlined sand filter chamber trenches consisting of
16 Quick4 chambers per trench, for a total of 32 Quick4 chambers. The pump line and distribution
laterals will be constructed of 1” diameter Schedule 40 PVC. Distribution laterals shall have 1/8”
diameter orifice holes spaced every 5’ on‐center (O.C) facing up, with the exception of the last orifice
facing down to allow proper drainage of the distribution laterals. Distribution laterals shall be hung
on the underside of the chambers using zip ties, and shall end in a sweeping 90‐degree bend with a
ball valve to allow flushing of the laterals. Inspection ports are to be installed at each end of each
trench. Maintain all setbacks and elevations as designed.
Contact the designer and Garfield County Public Health at least 48 hours prior to requesting final
inspection of the installed system prior to backfill. NO OWTS COMPONENT SHALL BE BACKFILED
WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL FROM GARFIELD COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH AND THE DESIGNER.
