Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the design as submitted by CBO
dated April 29, 2024. Changes must be approved by Garfield County Public Health and the designer
prior to construction.
The new OWTS will serve an existing 4-bedroom residence that is currently on the site. The existing
OWTS will be abandoned in place. The new system will consist of a new, two-compartment
minimum 1,500-gallon septic tank set level with access to grade, with a high-head pump in the
second compartment. Effluent will be pumped to an automatic distributing valve set at the high
point of the system that will distribute effluent to 660 ft2 of STA. The STA will consist of two GeoMat
beds 10-feet wide by 33-feet long placed on a minimum of 3 feet of secondary sand media with four-
feet between each bed. Laterals will consist of 1.5-inch diameter Schedule 40 PVC with 5/32-inch
orifice holes spaced 2.5-feet on-center (O.C.) and ending in a sweeping ell with flush valves.
Inspection ports are to be installed at each corner of each bed. Maintain all setbacks and elevations
as designed.
To assist in scheduling, please contact Garfield County Public Health (970-945-6614 ext. 8150) to
notify the start of OWTS construction. 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 BACKFILLED WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL FROM GARFIELD COUNTY PUBLIC
HEALTH AND THE DESIGNER.
