Timothy,
On October 26, 2023, we visited the site of the O’Sullivan Residence under construction at 624 Saddle Drive
near Glenwood Springs in Garfield County, Colorado to observe the OWTS installation pursuant to OWTS
Permit # SEPT‐7943. At the time of our site visit, the contractor had installed the new 1,250‐gallon two‐
compartment septic tank with a high‐head pump in the second chamber of the tank, the new pump line, the
automatic distributing valve, and the STA that consisted of an unlined sand filter with chambers for the
distribution media. The rows of the chambers were installed level. The septic tank and distribution box were
also installed level with access provided at grade. The unlined sand filter consisted of four rows of 12
Infiltrator Quick4 chambers per row (48 chambers total, 576 ft2 total STA). Additionally, inspection ports were
present at each corner of the bed. We received an observation letter via email on November 10, 2023 which
included an as‐built drawing of the system from the OWTS designer stating that the system was generally
installed according to specifications. The letter also included a pump start‐up latter from Valley Precast
indicating the system was started properly. 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.
Thank you,
