Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as submitted by
CBO Inc. dated November 7, 2024. Changes to the design and permit must be approved by Garfield
County Public Health and the designer prior to construction.
The new OWTS will expand an existing STA and serve an existing four-bedroom residence which results
from a bedroom addition. The new OWTS components will tie into the existing sewer line. A new 1500-
gallon two compartment septic tank set level with access to grade and an effluent filter installed in the
outlet tee of the tank will be installed. The septic tank shall be on the Colorado Department of Public
Health and Environment’s approved septic tank list. The existing tank will be abandoned in accordance
with Garfield County OWTS Regulations either by removal or crushing. Effluent will gravity flow to a new
distribution box set level with access to grade and then to six distribution lines that will distribute
effluent to 1207.5 ft2 of STA comprised of 487.5 ft2 of existing STA and 720 ft2 of newly installed STA. The
existing STA area, constructed in 1999 as documented by Garfield County Individual Sewage Disposal
System Permit 3179, is comprised of two gravelless chamber trenches, each trench consisting of 13
standard 6.25 ft long chambers (26 chambers total). The new STA area will consist of four gravelless
chamber trenches, each trench consisting of 15 ‘Quick 4’ chambers per trench (60 chambers total).
Inspection ports will be installed at each end of each trench. Maintain all setbacks and elevations as
designed.
Contact the designer and Garfield County Public Health (970-945-6614 ext. 8150) 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.
