Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as
submitted by CBO, Inc. dated August 19, 2024. Changes to the design and permit must be approved
by Garfield County Public Health and the designer prior to construction. The designer shall observe
the open STA excavation, prior to component installation, to verify soil conditions in the STA. The
designer shall report the soil conditions observed in the STA excavation to Garfield County Public
Health (GCPH) for review prior to OWTS component installation. If the infiltrative surface soils
differ from those used to design the OWTS, a new design shall be submitted to GCPH for review.
The new OWTS will serve a new 1-bedroom Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). The new OWTS
components will consist of a new, two-compartment 1,000-gallon septic tank set level with access to
grade with an effluent filter in the outlet tee of the septic tank. A cleanout shall be installed within 5-
feet of the building foundation, between the building and the septic tank. Effluent will gravity flow
from the 1,000-gallon septic tank to a manifold set level with access to grade that will distribute
effluent to 432 ft2 of STA. The new STA will consist of one three-row gravelless chamber bed with
each row consisting of 12 Infiltrator Quick4 chambers (36 chambers total). Inspection ports will be
installed at each corner of the bed. 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 BACKFILLED
WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL FROM GARFIELD COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH AND THE DESIGNER.

including but not limited to the conditions specified above.
In consideration of the issuance of the permit, the applicant hereby agrees to comply with all
laws and regulations related to the zoning, location, construction, and erection of the proposed
OWTS and associated structures for which this permit is granted. The applicant further agrees
that if the above said regulations are not fully complied with in the zoning, location, erection,
and construction of the above described OWTS and structure, the permit may then be revoked
by notice from the Health Department and immediately become null and void.
The issuance of a permit and specifications of terms and conditions therein will not constitute
assumption of liability, nor create presumption that the local public health agency or its
employees may be liable for the failure or malfunctioning of any system. Permit issuance will
not constitute a certification that the system, the equipment used in the system, or any
component used for system operation will ensure continuous compliance with the provision of
the OWTS Act, the regulations adopted thereunder, or any terms and conditions of a permit.
Permit Approval
Plans and specifications for the proposed OWTS have been reviewed and are considered
satisfactory. Permission is hereby given to the property owner(s) to perform the work indicated
in accordance with the Garfield County OWTS Regulation. This Permit will expire 1 year from
the date of issuance unless construction on the system has commenced. An "as-built" drawing
must be submitted and inspection of the system must be completed by GCPH before final
approval of the system will be issued.
