Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as
submitted by CBO, Inc. dated May 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 serve an existing 6-bedroom residence. The new OWTS components will consist
of the existing, two-compartment 2,000-gallon septic tank (documented by permit SEPT-8314) set
level with access to grade. The existing outlet of the tank is to be sealed off and the existing seepage
pit is to be properly abandoned. A new screened high-head pump will be installed in the second
chamber of the existing septic tank. Effluent will be pumped to an automatic distributing valve set at
the high point of the system that will distribute effluent to 845 ft2 of STA. The designer must be
present to confirm that the findings of the soil evaluation performed on October 13, 2023, during
the tank replacement, match the conditions in the proposed soil treatment area to the Southeast
before the installation of any OWTS components. The new STA will consist of a 13ft by 65 ft unlined
sand filter bed, consisting of three feet of secondary sand media overlain by four perforated
distribution laterals placed in GeoMat distribution media. Distribution laterals are to be 1 ½ inch
Schedule 40 PVC, with 5/32-inch orifices every 2-feet on center and the laterals ending in flushing
valves at the distal end. The orifices are to be facing downward with orifice shields. Inspection ports
are to 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.

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
