Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as
submitted by CTL Thompson, Inc. February 21, 2025. 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 a new three-bedroom residence. The irrigation ditch running to the West
of the gravel driveway must be lined to reduce the setback to the proposed septic tank location.
The system will consist of a new, three-compartment 1,250-gallon septic tank set level with access at
grade and a screened high-head pump in the third chamber. Effluent will be pumped to two level
manifolds that will distribute effluent to 576 ft2 of STA. Both the sewer line and effluent line are to
be entirely encased as described by Garfield County OWTS Regulation 43, Table 7-2, Note 2. The
new STA will consist of two gravel-less chamber beds, each bed consisting of 4 rows of 6 chambers
(24 chambers per bed, and 48 chamber total). Distribution laterals are to be 1 ½ inch Schedule 40
PVC, with 5/32-inch orifices 5-feet on center and the laterals ending in 90-degree sweeping bends
and flushing valves at the distal end of the laterals. Laterals are to be hung from the underside of the
chambers. The orifices are to be facing upward, except for the last orifices (which shall face
downward and be equipped with orifice shields for drainage purposes). 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.

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

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

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

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.
