The legal description of the 2.1 -acre property is Lot 18, Holland Hills at Basalt. The permits and record drawings were provided by Pitkin County Environmental Health Department (Parcel ID #2467-174-01-014). The subject OWTS consists of two 1000 -gallon, two-compartment concrete `VCP' septic tanks. Effluent gravity flows to a distribution box, and distributes effluent between the original (1977) 13'x 100' pipe and gravel soil treatment area (STA) and two chamber trenches (1993), each with 17 `Standard' Infiltrator® chambers. The original OWTS is documented by Pitkin County Health Department Permit Number 77104, which was given final approval on March 31, 1978. Additional STA was added under Individual Sewage Disposal System Permit 92043. The system was sized to accommodate 6 bedrooms. The permit received final approval on April 13, 1993. The septic tanks are located to the southwest of the residence. These septic tanks have access two access points to the inlet side of the septic tank and one access point to the outlet side of the septic tank. Only the inlet sides were accessible initially; however, the outlet access was dug up and brought to grade with a sprinkler box. Inlet and outlet baffles have a PVC tee cast into the concrete. The concrete outlet baffle on both septic tanks are showing signs of significant deterioration, but are still intact. The first septic tank in the series was pumped by B&R Septic at the time of our inspection. The second septic tank in the series did not have enough solids accumulated to warrant pumping. The distribution box was not accessible and therefore, we were not able to inspect this component. We recommend locating the distribution box and making it accessible from grade for future monitoring and inspection. We walked the approximate STA and found greener grass over one of the trenches. No inspection ports were visible in the STA. There were no signs of surface saturation or evidence of failure at the time of our inspection. This evaluation is not a guarantee of future system performance. This inspection is good for one year. Recommendations: ® Locate distribution box and bring it to grade. This report and a completed application packet must be submitted to the Pitkin County Environmental Health Department. The following links are the required application and application checklist.
