Public Health and the designer prior to construction.
An existing septic tank at the property will be replaced with a 1,250-gallon 2-compartment septic
tank. The existing tank must be removed and disposed of properly per Garfield County OWTS
regulations. The specified replacement tank must be on the Colorado Department of Public Health
and Environment (CDPHE) approved septic tank list for OWTS installations. Garfield County Public
Health recommends a cleanout be installed in the sewer line prior to the tank. Risers on the tank
access ports shall provide access to grade for the tank. An effluent filter shall be installed on the
outlet tee in the second compartment of the tank. Contractor/designer shall verify all elevations,
and ensure setback requirements are met.
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.
