Re: Board of Adjustment Variance Request for a Replacement Septic System on the R.
Scott Keller Property at 1460 Snowmass Creek Road (A tract of land in Tract 62, Section
34, Township 8 South, Range 86 West of the 6~' P. M., Pitkin County, Colorado)
Deaz Boazd of Adjustment Members,
The enclosed application is a request to construct asite-specific, engineered type of
onsite wastewater treatment system for the referenced property. Although there are no
changes to the existing buildings on the lot, the proposed engineering design involves
placement of fill during construction. The proposed replacement onsite wastewater
system also involves locating the final treatment and infiltrative azea of the system
adjacent to the County road and constructing a mound over thirty (30") in height.
Because of the type of planned sewage system needed, we understand that a variance
from the board is necessary.
Currently the existing residence is served by an antiquated, inoperative aerated treatment
plant and poorly functioning absorption trench system that, on occasion, has failed. The
tank aerator unit no longer works and the metal tank of this part of the system has
become badly corroded. The absorption area of the septic system has become clogged
after 26 yeazs of use. Despite frequent pumping, occasionally the black, odorous tank
effluent surfaces near the creek. The existing sewage system is in violation of county
regulations and is in need of replacement before winter sets in.
Because of the difficult site conditions, high ground water table, and the proximity to the
creek and water supply, the Aspen/Pitkin Environmental Health requirements have
_ _ _ _ -_
necessitated design of an engineered mound to mitigate and minimize any pollution
potential from a new, replacement system. This is one of the few design options
available to this applicant to meet all of the county setback requirements contained in the
Pitkin County Individual Sewaee Disposal Re lau ation. These setbacks include providing
proper separations-from the stream and the drinking water source. There is also an
important requirement for afour-foot vertical sepazation from the bottom of the effluent.... _._ ___.
absorption area to the high seasonal ground water table that must be met.
It will impossible for the applicant to comply with all of the permit requirements of the
Health Department without a vaziance. The hazdship for continued enjoyment of the
residential property without replacing the septic system with a properly designed sewage
system is evident.

Board of Adjustment 31^4ance Request for a Replacement Sc,
11/15!98
Page 2
There aze several facts to consider in deliberating on this variance request.
1) The mound will not be visible from Snowmass Creek Road on any
adjacent property. It is actually below the road embankment by about
eight feet and will be feathered into this excavated cut of the original
road construction.
2) The two properties to the South of this residence have very similar
engineered mound systems, which required no variance at the time of
-their construction. These systems perform adequately and in
compliance with all county requirements.
3) The Aspen/Pitkin County Environmental Health Department supports
the proposed engineering design. We have received every indication
that a permit will be issued to begin construction of the replacement
septic system, once this variance request is approved.
We hope that this application demonstrates the hardship and need for this variance in
order to construct the proposed septic system as soon as possible. Thank you for your
consideration of this matter. We will be available to answer any of your questions at the
next meeting.
Sincerely,
/~E~~~

Subject: OWS Repair Design, Existing Residence
1460 Snowmass Creek Road
Pitkin County, Colorado
Job No. 10080
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Keller,
As requested by Bob Nelson of Nelson Environmental and Wastewater
Solutions (NEWS), we prepared an Onsite wastewater System (OWS) repair
design for the subject site. Subsurface conditions were investigated
by NEWS to determine design parameters for the OWS design.
SITE CONDITIONS - The site is a 1.28 acre site in Pitkin County,
Colorado. There is an existing residence at the southeastern portion
of the lot. The slope at the proposed field is less than 5% to the
northeast. There is a sparse cover of grasses at the proposed field
location. The southeast property borders Capitol Creek and the east
property boundary borders Snowmass Creek. The west property boundary
borders the Snowmass Creek Road Right-of-Way and a drainage ditch. We
understand the drainage ditch has water year round. The west property
boundary has approximately 10 feet of fill from the road. The proposed
field area is in a horse corral. Several fences are located in the
area which will need to be removed for installation of the OWS.
The site is served water by an Infiltration Gallery which collects
water from Snowmass Creek. The site is served by an existing OWS.
The OWS consist of a 1000 gallon Cavitette Aeration treatment plant
and a 250 square feet (SF) drain field of unknown location. The OWS
was installed in the early 1970's. The aeration plant was used for a
drain field area reduction according to NEWS. We understand the system
is currently failing as indicated by effluent backflow into the septic
tank after pumping. _
EXISTING CONSTRUCTION - The existing residence has three bedrooms and
approximately 1800 SF of living area. The sewage load is 450 gallons
per day (GPD) using the Pitkin County standard of 75 gallons per day
per person wittl two people per bedroom and three bedrooms. Sewage
loading with a 1.75 peaking factor is 788 GPD. This loading includes
a garbage grinder, dish washer, and washing machine.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS - A subsurface investigation was performed by
NEWS. Subsurface conditions were investigated by observing one profile
pit and attempting to perform three percolation tests. Subsurface con-
ditions reported in the profile pit consisted of a 1 foot fill layer,

2 '°
underlain by silt loam 'to an estimated depth of 6.5 feet underlain by
shale to the maximum depth explored of 6.5 feet. Ground water was
encountered in the profile pit at 3 feet. Ground water was encountered
in percolation holes at depths of 1 to 3 feet. Percolation test were
not performed due to the presence of shallow ground water.
RECOMMENDATIONS - We recommend a septic tank, pump, and pressure
distributed mounded sand filter chamber-bed OwS be installed at the
location presented on Fig. 1. The OWS design is based on an average
sewage load of 450 GPD and a sand filter application rate of 0.95
gallons per day per square foot. The drain field area could not be
calculated on an average percolation rate due to percolation test not
being performed. A percolation rate was back-calculated from the soil
absorptive area after the system was sized by the above criteria. The
back-calculated percolation rate is 191 MPI. We believe this percola-
tion rate exceeds the actual percolation rate of the soils onsite. The
drainage ditch near Snowmass Creek Road should be lined with a 10 MIL
PVC liner, where the drainage ditch is within 50 feet of the drainage
fields. we understand you would prefer to line the drainage ditch to
intercept runoff from Snowmass Creek Road.
We recommend the existing aeration plant be abandoned and crushed
inplace or filled with a sandy material. The aeration plant should be
abandoned and not pose any structural problems to the existing shed.
The aeration plant should be abandoned due to its construction and
age. The existing drain field should be abandoned due to the Aspen/
Pitkin County Environmental Health Department (APCEHD) concerns with
drain fields 20 years old and it's unknown location and size.
We recommend the installation of one water-tight, 1250-gallon, two-
compartment, precast concrete, septic tank with a pump in a biotube
vault. The septic tank should be installed greater than the distance
of the aeration plant to the stream, approximately 35 feet. Current
regulations indicate the separation distance a minimum of 50 feet. We
prefer to install the septic tank relatively shallow due to ground
water and the effluent pumping system. The septic tank can be located
greater than or equal to 35 feet due to the repair situation. At
least 1.5 feet of cover is required over the septic tank due to
buoyancy from ground water. We should be contacted to confirm fill
over the tank when a septic tank supplier is chosen. The septic tank
must be waterproof.
We recommend the installation of two pressure distributed mounded sand
filter chamber beds. Each bed should have four rows of seven chambers.
The drain fields must be located 50 feet from the streams and 100 feet
from the Infiltration Gallery. The OWS should be constructed similar
to Figs. 1 through 3.
The proposed OWS is-designed for a three bedroom residence with 1800
SF of living area. If additional bedrooms are anticipated, we recom-
mend the installation of a larger OWS to accommodate any "build-out"
of the residence. The septic tank would have to be increased by 328
gallons for each additional bedroom. Each additional bedroom will
require 273 SF of chamber bed or 18 chambers.
3
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE - The owner must realize an OWS is different
from a public sewer system. The owner must be aware of and assume
responsibility for maintenance of the system. we recommend the septic
tank be pumped and filter be cleaned (hosed off) every two years. We
recommend performing maintenance during the late fall and early winter
due to ground water and concerns with buoyancy. Buoyancy is a concern
when the septic tank is empty during high water conditions. There are
daily considerations such as not putting plastic or nonbiodegradable
materials down the septic system. water use must be monitored so
toilets are not allowed to run, when seals malfunction. To illustrate
the point, it should be noted a running toilet will consume in excess
of 1000 GPD if allowed to run. An excess 1000 gallon loading will
flood and irreparably harm the system.
LIMITATIONS - Our layout, design and recommendations are based on data
submitted. If subsurface conditions different from those described in
this report are encountered, we should be called to observe the sub-
surface conditions. If proposed construction is changed, we should be
notified to evaluate the affect of the changes on the proposed system.
All construction is to be in accordance with APCEHD ISDS regulations.
Pipe type and size, burial requirements, septic tank construction, and
other specifications, which are not depicted in our report, are to
conform to the requirements of the ISDS regulations. The installer of
the system must be familiar with APCEHD regulations, and is to have
demonstrated a knowledge of the ISDS regulations and requirements.
The OWS design includes one installation observation. Additional
observations are not included in the cost of this design. If there
are any questions or if „wer cau~..be of ;further service, please call .

Case # 98-23 Adolfo am a, 087 H'gj~y~
Dyer introduced the request fora 121' Arterial Highway Setback variance where 200' is
required from the Highway 82 right-of--way, to allow for the temporary placement of a
bird kennel.
Schaffner stated that the structure was cited for being constructed without a permit. This
development constitutes an expansion of anon-conforming use. The applicants
subsequently received conditional approval for this expansion from the Boazd of County
Commissioners, who required that the kennel be removed no later than October 31, 1999.
Representative and manager of the Gabriel Foundation, Howazd Gunther, addressed the
Boazd. The Foundation rescues and rehabilitates sick or injured birds. They house
different species of birds from all over the world. Public tours aze available. He stated
that the bird kennel was built without a permit but that he was informed that no permits
were required to build a barn in an agricultural district. The building is used to house
birds during the summer months, when the birds aze brought outside in the morning and
taken back inside in the afternoon. The structure is located in the middle of the pazking
lot. Gunther stated he would take the building down as required by the BOCC.
Dyer asked if Gunther has tried seeking other avenues to keep the structure standing? He
asked if it could be relocated? Gunther stated that they do not own the property. Julie
Murad, founder of the Gabriel Foundation, stated that they aze trying to find a permanent
location for the kennel.
There were no members of the public present.
Throm moved to grant a 121' Arterial Highway Setback variance as per plans submitted
due to downzoning. Rudnick seconded the motion. The motion passed 3-0, with
Brickham not present.

and a 5' East Side Yard Setback vaziance where 15' is required for this 37,673 squaze
foot lot in the R-30 zone district for regrading and driveway improvements.
Representatives, Julie Maple and Kim Weil, were present. Weil explained that the
existing driveway has a grade of 19%. The proposed driveway would have an 8% grade,
with a small retaining structure which will exceed 30 inches in height.
No members of the public were present.
Rudnick moved to approve a 20' Front Yard Setback variance and a 5' East Side Yazd
Setback variance in accordance with the plans submitted, not to exceed 48" in height over
the existing grade, due to a topographical hazdship. Throm seconded the motion. The
motion passed 3-Q with Brickham not present.
C_~a~e #98-27 R Scott Keller 1420 Snowmac rP tf Raaa
Rudnick intrgduced the request fora 30' Front Yard Setback variance where 30' is
required for this 1.28 acre pazcel in the RS-30 zone district, for the construction of a 6'
high septic mound.
Schaffner stated that the location of the property is across from the Gateway Subdivision
between Snowmass Creek Road and Snowmass Creek. The applicant needs to upgrade
their current septic system. Due to the close proximity of Snowmass Creek, a raised
system is required.
Representative, Bob Nelson, was present. He compazed a similaz septic system, located
on the Rice property, to this proposed system. The septic mound is to be blended into the
existing road bed which is higher than the adjacent, subject site. A letter is noted to the
record from the County Engineer, Bud Eylaz, stating that the County is not opposed to
issuing an encroachment permit for the bean to be located within the County right of
way.
No members of the public were present.
Throm moved to approve the 30' Front Yazd Setback variance, as per the plans
submitted, subject'to clearing up any problems that may arise with the right-of--way
encroachment, due to a topographical hazdship. Rudnick seconded the motion. The
motion passed 3-0, with Brickham not present.
Case #98-2 raid D Hin c 99 4hady ane -Delayed until the end of the meeting
when Brickham could be present. Rudnick stepped down due to a potential conflict of
interest.
Dyer introduced the request fora 240 squaze foot increase in floor azea where the
maximum allowed is 11,615 squaze feet, for the construction of a deck onto an existing
residence, for this 2.35 acre pazcel in the R-30 zone district.
Schaffner pointed out that the property is located near the confluence of Hunter Creek
and the Roaring Fork River. She stated that the house is approximately 20 yeazs old. The
calculation of Floor Area has changed since the house was constructed; previously
garages were exempt from floor azea calculations, while today only 750 sq. ft. of gazage
azea is exempt: The existing gazage contains approximately 2,000 sq. ft., 1,250 sq. ft. of
which now counts against the floor azea of the residence. The existing floor azea
presently exceeds the allowed floor azea for this pazcel.
Representative, Dave Gibson, was introduced to the Boazd. He explained that the concept
of the house was to embrace the two rivers and give space to a giant spruce tree. The
house was originally designed by nationally acclaimed azchitect, Chazles W. Moore,
FAIA, and included the deck. The deck was not constructed at the time, however, and
now is not permitted due to the change in floor azea calculation.
No members of the public were present.
Dyer moved to approve a 240 squaze foot increase in floor azea for the construction of a
deck onto an existing residence, as per plans submitted, due to downzoning. Brickham
seconded the motion. The motion passed 3-0, with Rudnick absent.
