Permit Conditions:
This OWTS Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the report and design as submitted by K-Cronk
Engineering dated March 18, 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 an existing 4-bedroom residence. The existing septic tank will be crushed in place or removed
per Garfield County OWTS Regulations. The system will consist of a new, two-compartment concrete 1,500-gallon
septic tank with access at grade. The septic tank will be a Valley Precast H-20 top seam tank rated for 4-8 feet of earth
fill due to a proposed bury depth of 6.5 feet. A screened high-head pump will be housed in the second chamber of the
1,500-gallon septic tank. The dose volume from the pump shall be 100 gallons. The specified pump for the project must
have a minimum 36.5 gallon-per-minute pump rate and a total dynamic head of 31.2 feet. Effluent will be pumped to a
level manifold that will distribute effluent to 504 ft2 of STA. The new STA will consist of three chamber trenches, each
trench consisting of 14 ‘Quick 4’ chambers (42 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 3-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 5-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. NO OWTS COMPONENT SHALL BE BACKFILLED WITHOUT PRIOR
APPROVAL FROM GARFIELD COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH AND THE DESIGNER.
