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 3-bedroom residence with capacity for two future bedrooms. The existing septic tank will be crushed in place per Garfield County OWTS Regulations. The system will consist of a new, two-compartment concrete 2,000-gallon septic tank. The tank shall be on the CDPHE approved tank list and set level with access at grade. A screened high-head pump will be housed in the second chamber of the septic tank. The dose volume from the pump shall be 200 gallons pumped ~4 times per day. The specified pump for the project must have a minimum 56.9 gallon- per-minute pump rate and a total dynamic head of 19.3 feet. Effluent will be pumped to a level manifold that will distribute effluent to 1224 ft2 of STA. The infiltrative surface must be installed at a maximum of 3 ft below native grade to avoid R-type soils. The new STA will consist of six chamber trenches, each trench consisting of 17 ‘Quick 4’ chambers (102 chambers total). Each trench will contain a perforated distribution lateral. Distribution laterals are to be 1 ½ inch Schedule 40 PVC, with 5/32-inch orifices every 4-feet on center with the laterals ending in 90-degree sweeping bends and flushing valves at the distal end. The residual head (squirt height) at the end of the system is to be 3-feet. The orifices are to be facing upward, except for the first and last orifice (which shall face downward). Inspection ports are to be installed at each end of each trench. 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.
