Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with scope of work and site plan as
submitted by CBO Inc. dated April 10, 2026. Changes to the design and permit must be approved by
Garfield County Public Health prior to construction.
The new OWTS will serve an existing three-bedroom residence. The slope of the existing 3-inch
sewer line under the residence must be corrected to remove a belly. A cleanout must be installed
in the existing sewer line outside the residence. All existing sewer line to remain in use must be
found in good working order. An existing 1000-gallon two compartment septic tank set level with
access to grade has been found to be in good working order and will remain in use. An effluent filter
must be installed in the outlet of the septic tank, and the manhole lids must be repaired or
replaced. Effluent will gravity flow to a new distribution box set level with access to grade which will
distribute effluent to 672 ft2 of STA. The new STA area will consist of two gravel-less chamber beds.
Each bed will consist of four rows of 7 ‘Quick 4’ chambers (56 chambers total). Should the existing
STA being encountered during construction, the infiltrative surface must be found in good
condition and able to accept effluent and any sludge and saturated soils must be removed and
replaced with sand filter material. To prevent lateral surfacing of effluent, a 30 mil PVC liner must
be installed on the Southern side of both beds to the depth of the bottom of the first tier in the
retaining wall to the South. Inspection ports will be installed at each corner of each 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.
