OWTS Permit #: SEPT-7837
April 17, 2024
Jose,
On August 15, 2023, we visited the Mendoza Residence at 1452 County Road 259 near Rifle in
Garfield County, Colorado to observe the OWTS installation pursuant to OWTS Permit # SEPT-
7837. The contractor had installed the additional gravelless chambers to the existing STA (Soil
Treatment Area). The chambers appeared to be installed level. The expanded STA added three
chambers to the existing three gravelless chamber trenches and consisted of ARC 36 chambers
(9 additional chambers, 135 ft2 total additional STA). Additionally, inspection ports were present
at the end of each trench. Accounting for the existing 486 ft2 of existing STA, the total STA on
the property now consists of 621 ft2. Additionally, we received a letter and as-built drawing from
the OWTS designer indicating that the “OWTS appears to have been expanded in general
conformance with the intent of the design.” 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,
Edward R. “Ted” White, P.E.
