Box 1639 Basalt, CO 81621 I F JUL 2 0 1995 ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH ASPEN/PITKIN Subject: Soils Evaluation and Percolation Test for Individual Sewage System Design for the McLaughlin Residence, Parcel 15 Sopris Mountain Ranch (A Parcel of Land being part of Tracts 78 & 87 located in Sections 32 and 33, Township 8 South, Range 87 West of the 6th P. M.), 401 Sopris Mountain Ranch Road, Pitkin County, CO Dear Mike, As requested, Nelson Environmental and Wastewater Solutions, Ltd., performed a soils study and percolation tests on the subject property to design a septic system for the proposed residence. We conducted this study according to Section 5-1 through 5-5 of Pitkin County Individual Sewage Disposal System Regulation (Revised May 1995) on July 18, 1995. We have based our recommendations on the subsurface conditions encountered. We will furnish this letter to the Aspen/Pitkin Environmental Health Department at our earliest opportunity so that you may obtain a permit to construct this sewage system. Proposed Construction: The planned residence is a one bedroom, one and one half bathroom, two-story frame house with an additional one bedroom detached caretaker unit to be constructed in the future. The total living area of the main house is calculated to be approximately 3000 square feet. The domestic water supply for the property is proposed to be from a drilled well that has been recently completed. Site Conditions: The lot of approximately 35.7 acres located in the Sopris Mountain Ranch Subdivision. The building site is approximately 100 feet above and 500 feet from West Sopris Creek. The ground surface, which appears natural in the proposed area of the absorption field, slopes to the West Northwest at 10%. The top part of the property is covered with aspen trees and oak brush. The lower portion of the lot, where the absorption system 9 P.O.

Subsurface Conditions: A soil profile, within 10 feet of the proposed absorption area, was excavated to a depth of nine and one-half feet. The excavation revealed that no groundwater or bedrock was present within 9 1/2 feet of the surface of the ground. The topsoil consisted of dark gray loam 11 inches thick. The subsoil was a sandy, clay loam with cobbles and boulders, two inches to eight inches in diameter, to the depth of the excavation. The subsurface soil conditions were evaluated with the standard percolation test procedures at the approximate location shown on Figure 1 and 2. Percolation Testing: Percolation testing was performed in the proposed absorption trench area Northwest of the planned residence. This testing was performed in three shallow holes excavated with a backhoe to a depth of twenty to twenty-four inches and completed by digging a smaller hole in the bottom of the backhoe excavation with hand tools. The total depth of the percolation holes ranged between thirty-seven and forty-two inches. Before the test, the sidewalls were scrapped, and four inches of gravel were placed in each test hole. The percolation holes were pre-soaked by adding water the evening before the measurements and again approximately every two hours for an eight hour period before beginning the percolation test. The results of the percolation testing are presented in Table I. These results indicate the sandy clay loam soils have an average percolation rate of 30 minutes per inch, a satisfactory percolation rate under Pitkin County criteria. Limitations: This report has been prepared according to generally accepted practices in this area for use for sewage disposal design purposes. The conclusions and recommendations • McLaughlin Residence Parcel 15, Sopris Mountain Ranch Soils Evaluation and Percolation Test for Individual Sewage System Design July 18, 1995 Page 3 C submitted in this report are based upon data obtained from our site visits at the location indicated. There is some possibility that the nature and extent of variations in the subsurface soils across the site may not have been evident at the time of this investigation, and may need additional evaluation, if further excavation reveals conditions different from those described. This office should be advised of any unusual situations as soon as possible so that we may reevaluate our recommendations. If you have questions or if we may be of further assistance, please call the office. Sincerely, Robert F. Nelson, R.E.H.S President Reviewed qBy, W % t=::E ay Hammond, P.E.

Mike Conners, the contractor representing Ann McLaughlin, has been in contact with this department with regards to the main house and the garage/caretaker unit. He is in the process of having a well drilled and obtaining perc test results and profile hole information. These results will be used to design a septic system to serve both the main house and the caretaker unit. ADEQUATE PROVISIONS FOR WATER NEEDS: Sections 2-17 and 3-1104: "it is the policy of the County to insure the availability of a water supply of adequate quality, quantity, pressure and dependability for fire protection and support of a proposed land use prior to approval of the use. The County shall require land uses to hook up to existing public systems if service is available." This Department needs adequate information on the quantity and the quality of water available. This can be done from tests of wells present on-site by a water engineer's or well driller's report. The applicant must ensure that the water quality is acceptable by having it tested by a lab such as Snowmass Water and Sanitation or Aspen Consolidated Sanitation. Water of acceptable quality and quantity has been obtained in most lots in this area, however some lots in the general vicinity have had a problem, such as high sulfur. Before a septic permit can be issued, the well must be drilled to assure that setback requirements from the well to the septic system can be maintained. A condition of approval for this application is the receipt of information documenting the location of the well(s) and quantity/quality of the well water. Ips SEWAGE TREATMENT AND COLLECTION: Sections 2-18 and 3-1105: "Itis the policy of the County to ensure that adequate sewage treatment facilities are available to serve existing and new developments. Public and private sewage disposal systems and connections to such systems shall comply with the sewage disposal guidelines of Pitkin County's Individual Sewage Disposal System Regulation." Lots in the Sopris Mountain Ranch area are served by individual septic systems. All such systems installed within Pitkin County require septic permits issued by the Environmental Health Department, and must comply with the County's septic regulations. To receive a septic permit, the applicant will need to submit a septic permit application and appropriate fee with a completed Soil Data Form including percolation test results and profile hole information. It must be possible to design an adequate septic system before a building permit can be issued. The Aspen/Pitkin Environmental Health Department will design the system for the applicant as part of the permit fee, unless an engineered system is needed, which we determine based on soil test results. An engineered system is required if any one of the following conditions occurs: a percolation rate faster than 5 mpi or slower than 60 mpi; maximum seasonal level of the groundwater table or bedrock less than four feet below the bottom of the proposed absorption system; or a slope in excess of 30%. Based on percolation test results in the general vicinity, we are confident that a septic system can be installed. Site specific soil data will have to be obtained. The applicant will need to adhere to minimum horizontal setback requirements for placement of septic system components which should be no problem on this lot. The leach field will need to be located a minimum of 100 feet from the applicant's well and from any neighboring wells. The area for the leach field should be located in an area of no traffic, planted with dry land grass, and should not be watered. It is desireable to locate the system below the house so that the system can operate by gravity. The applicant should refer to the Pitkin County Sewage Regulations for detailed information, or call our office to discuss this site. A condition of approval fbr this application is the receipt and approval of the septic permit by the Environmental Health Department before a building permit can be issued. WATER QUALITY IMPACTS: Sections 2-14 and 3-705 and 3-710: "It is the policy of the County to preserve and protect its present water resources. To this end it is the policy of the County that no land use be initiated which would adversely affect the quantity, quality, or accessibility of the County's water resources; or which would occur at the expense of established water - dependent agricultural activities; or which would result in increased salinization of water resources, loss of minimum stream flows, further destruction of wildlife habitat, or major expenditures to reacquire or redistribute major water resources. It is also the policy of the County to maintain a natural vegetative buffer along its surface waters such that the surface and groundwaters of the area are not encroached upon I C/ 2 IS L7 by land uses or other human activities which could cause deterioration of water quality or impair the natural treatment processes provided by meadows and wetlands.'- The etlands." The Environmental Health Department will be addressing water quality impacts on down stream water quality. This application is not expected to impact down stream water quality if the minimum horizontal distances between components of the system and physical features are in accordance with the Pitkin County Sewage Regulations. A condition of approval for this application is: NONE AIR QUALITY: Sections 2-13 and 3-602: "Only that development is permitted which will not contribute significantly to degradation of air quality in Pitkin County. Developments may not constitute an indirect or direct air pollution source under Federal, State or County regulations.'$ This project is not expected to contribute significantly to degradation of air quality in Pitkin County. The applicant must file a fireplace/woodstove permit with the Environmental Health Department before the building permit will be issued. The less densely populated parts of the county like Sopris Mountain Ranch may have one wood burning fireplace and one department certified device or two department certified devices per building. In addition, unlimited numbers of decorative gas appliances are allowed. Coal may not be burned in any device. No wood burning device may be installed in barns or agricultural buildings. A condition of approval for this application is the receipt and approval of the fireplace/woodstove permit by the Environmental Health Department before the building permit can be issued. CONFORMANCE WITH OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH LAWS: Section 2-7: -'It is the policy of the County to ensure that no use or development of land is permitted which is in violation of the Laws of the County, the State of Colorado, or the United States of America.-- This merica." This Department is not aware of any issues of concern regarding other environmental health laws. ... ENV:wP:LAND USE:246533201001.mclaughlin 3
