OWTS Permit #: SEPT-8206
April 29, 2024
On November 21, 2023, we visited the site of the residence under construction at 1506 Midland
Avenue in Glenwood Springs, Colorado to observe the OWTS installation pursuant to OWTS
Permit # SEPT-8206. At the time of our site visit, the contractor had installed the new sewer line
and cleanout adjacent to the residence, the new poly 1,250-gallon two-compartment septic tank
with an effluent filter in the outlet tee of the tank followed by a 250-gallon pump chamber with a
high-head pump in the chamber, the new pump line, and the two gravelless chamber trenches.
The septic and pump tanks were installed level with access brought to grade. The trenches
consisted of 16 Infiltrator Quick4 chambers per trench (32 total chambers, 384 ft2 total STA).
The distribution laterals ended with a valve accessible from grade to allow flushing of the
laterals. Additionally, inspection ports were present at each end of each trench. Garfield County
Public Health staff observed an operational (squirt height) test of the system on April 18, 2024,
that indicated the pump was achieving the designed pressure requirements. We received an as-
built drawing of the constructed system and a letter certifying that the system was constructed in
general conformance with the permitted design from the OWTS designer dated April 23, 2023.
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,
