PERCOLATION TESTS
The successful operation of your septic system depends on the rate the soil in which
your leach field will be installed will accept water. This is critical. The rate of
absorption is called the percolation rate and it determines the size of the leach field
needed for a particular flow of sewage and in some cases even determines the feasibility
of the installation of a septic tank and leach field system. AN EIGHT (8) FOOT PROFILE
HOLE IN THE LEACH FIELD AREA IS REQUIRED IN THE STATE OF COLORADO TO DETERMINE THE PROX-
IMITY OF GROUND WATER AND BEDROCK. In some cases the profile hole may be waived but
only by specific approval of the Environmental Health Department. PERCOLATION TESTS
MUST BE DONE AT THE GROUND DEPTH WHERE ABSORPTION WILL TAKE PLACE. STANDARD SEEPAGE
BEDS (LEACH FIELDS) ARE INSTALLED THREE FEET DEEP, SO THE PERCOLATION HOLES ARE DUG
FOUR FEET DEEP, AT LEAST 20 FEET APART; THE PERCOLATION TEST IS DONE IN THE BOTTOM
ONE (1) FOOT OF THE HOLE.

A post hole digger, auger, or back hoe can be used to dig the percolation test holes.
If a back hoe is used, dig the back hoe hole 3 feet deep and put a test hole 1 foot
deep and 8 to 12 inches in diameter in the bottom. Installation of absorption areas
(i.e. drywells) deeper than thrcc feet requires the permission of the Environmental
Health Department.
Saturation with water will affect the percolation rate, and since the system will be
expected to operate when the soil is saturated with water, THE HOLES MUST BE FILLED
- WITH WATER AT LEAST 8 HOURS BEFORE THE TEST, AND ALLOWED TO STAND. More water will need •
to be used to perform the percolation test, so AT LEAST 10 GALLONS OF WATER SHOULD BE
ON HAND WHEN THE TEST IS PERFORMED.

RECOMMENDED MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS FOR
INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEMS
Before construction is started, the Inspector must be contacted for
approval and detailed information concerning the proposed disposal system. Higher
standards than those which follow may be required in individual cases to assure
attainment of the objectives. [hose objectives are to locate, construct, and
maintain individual sewage disposal systems in such a manner that existing or
contemplated water supplies will not become contaminated and so that sewage will
not overflow the ground surface and result in a nuisance or health hazard.
1. LIQUID CAPACITY OF TANK (GALLONS)
(Provides for use of garbage grinder, automatic clothes washers, and
other water using household appliances.)
Recommended Minimum
Number of Bedrooms Tank Capacity
2 or less 750 gallons
3 or less 1,000 gallons

*Percolation rates faster than 5 minutes per inch or slower than 60 minutes per
inch require engineer systems and/ or Board of Health approval.
(a) It is desirable to provide sufficient land area for entire new absorption
system if needed in future.
(b) In every case, sufficient land area should be provided for the number of bed-
rooms (minimum of 2) that can be reasonably anticipated, including the
unfinished space available for conversion as additional bedrooms.
(c) Absorption area is figured as trench- bottom area and includes a statistical
allowance for vertical side wall area.
(FOR APPLICANTS INFORMATION)
11 4
(d). Absorption area for seepage pits is figured as effective side wall area
beneath the inlet..
(e) Unsuitable for seepage pits if over thirty.
(f) Unsuitable for absorption systems if over sixty.
Dwelling on less than two acres, areas of high water tables, or areas with a
percolation test rate faster than 1" in 5 minutes must have alternative sewage
facilities, i.e., central collection, holding tanks, individual treatment, etc.
EXCEPTION: Absorption areas may be allowed with-percolation rates faster than
one (1) inch in 5 minutes provided the soil is a sandy texture and no water table
problems are encountered.

Septic construction should be of concrete, concrete block or of a material that
will resist deterioration and which can be made reasonably watertight.
Acceptable drain field pipe materials include plastic, terra cotta, concrete.
If the house sewerline is longer than 10 feet between house and septic tank, a
clean -out Y should be installed as near as practicable to the house.
Septic tanks should be inspected once a year and cleaned when necessary. Cleaning
is recommended when space between the scum accumulation and sludge residue on the
tank bottom is less than 18 inches.
The Department recommends pumping a septic tank once every 4 years when a yearly
inspection by the owner is not practical.
