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 3-bdroom residence and supplement a slow draining existing seepage pit. Effluent will gravity flow from an existing 1,000-gallon septic tank to a bull run valve that will allow alternation between the existing seepage pit and the new seepage pit. This valve is required to be switched on an annual basis. The documentation of this valve switching shall be maintained by the homeowner and shall be provided to Garfield County Public Health upon request. The new seepage pit consists of an excavation of 10-feet long by 10-feet wide by 8-feet deep (420 ft2) with a 4-foot diameter structure in the center of the excavation consisting of 2-foot tall perforated concrete rings, surrounded by ¾-inch diameter screened gravel. The structure will be placed on 6-inches of gravel on the bottom of the excavation. Multiple variances for setbacks were granted for this permit by the Garfield County Board of Health, including encroachments on property lines to the north and west, to the residential structure, and to the water service valve and line. Maintain all setbacks and elevations as indicated on the design. 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.
