Sopris Creek Road Pitkin County, Colorado Krista, As requested, CBO Inc. performed an Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit inspection at 360 W. Sopris Creek Road, Basalt, Colorado on September 21, 2016. The legal description of the 2.65 -acre property is Lots 25 & 26, Nystrom Tracts. The permit and record drawing was provided by Pitkin County Environmental Health Department (Parcel ID #2465-242-01-011). The subject OWTS consists of one 1000 -gallon, two-compartment concrete septic tank. Effluent gravity flows to a 22' x 52' pipe and gravel soil treatment area (STA). Individual Sewage Disposal System Permit 84032 documents this system. The system was sized to accommodate 2 bedrooms. There are currently 3 bedrooms in the residence. The septic tank is located south of the residence. No clean out was visible between the house and the septic tank. Both manhole lids were located approximately 2 -feet below grade and had to be dug up. The plumbing entering and exiting the septic tank was an angled fitting. These angled fittings will be replaced with a proper open "tees". Risers must be added so the tank is accessible from grade. New lids will be required as the current lids will not fit the new risers properly. The septic tank was pumped by All Valley Resource as part of the inspection. We walked the approximate STA and found a metal plate that we were not able to remove. Upon close inspection, there appears to be a PVC pipe under the metal plate. The port was dry. There was no evidence of surface saturation and no evidence of failure in the STA at the time of the inspection. This evaluation is not a guarantee of future system performance. This inspection is good for one year. Required Repairs: • Add risers to bring septic tank manholes lids to grade. • Replace septic tank lids for a proper fit on new risers. • Replace plumbing in and out of septic tank with proper inlet and outlet tees. Recommendations: • Install effluent filter on the outlet tee of the septic tank. This report and a receipt confirming the required repairs must be submitted to the Pitkin County Environmental Health Department. The following links are the required application and application checklist. Application: http://www.pitkincounty.com/DocumentCenter/HomeNiew/621 Application Checklist: http://www.pitkincounty.com/DocumentCenter/HomeNiew/620 Disclaimer. This inspection is intended only as an evaluation of the present condition of the OWTS based upon what was observed and the Licensed Inspector's expertise in onsite wastewater technology. The Inspector has not been retained to warrant or guarantee the proper functioning of the system for any period of time in the future. Because of numerous factors which may affect the operation of an OWTS, as well as the inability of the Inspector to supervise or monitor the use or maintenance of this OWTS, this report shall not be construed as a warranty by the Inspector that the system will function properly for any particular prospective buyer, and the Inspector disclaims any warranty, either expressed or implied, arising from the inspection of the OWTS or this report. The evaluation does not ascertain the impact the system is having on groundwater. Please call with questions.

Don't: • Pour cooking grease or oil down the sink or toilet. • Rinse coffee grounds into the sink. • Pour household chemicals down the sink or flush them. Don't: • Flush non -degradable products or chemicals, such as feminine hygiene products, condoms, dental floss, diapers, cigarette butts, cat litter, paper towels, pharmaceuticals. Don't: • Park or drive on your drainfield. The weight can damage the drain lines. • Plant trees or shrubs too close to your drainfield, roots can grow into your system and clog it. Don't • Concentrate your water use by using your dishwasher, shower, washing machine, and toilet at the same time. All that extra water can really strain your septic system. W Do: • Eliminate or limit the use of a garbage disposal. • Properly dispose of coffee grounds & food. • Put grease in a container to harden before discarding in the trash. Do: • Dispose of these items in the trash can! Do: • Consult a septic service professional to advise you of the proper distance for planting trees and shrubs, depending on your septic tank location. Do: • Stagger the use of water -generating appliances. This can be helpful especially if your system has not been pumped in a long time. • Become more water efficient by fixing plumbing leaks and consider installing bathroom and kitchen faucet aerators and water -efficient products.
