System Records: Permit #: 98067 Date of Issuance: 10/7/1998 Date of Final Approval: 8/22/2000 # of Bedrooms or fixtures served by OWTS: The system was designed to serve 4 bedrooms, office/loft room was not considered a bedroom when permitted although it meets the definition of a bedroom because it is private and has direct access to a full bath. Operational Status: According to the inspector's observations, the system was functioning properly at the time of inspection. The 2000 gallon tank was watertight and in good working condition with both inlet and outlet tees in place. The tank was not easily accessible because risers were about a foot below grade. The tank flows to a distribution box that was not accessible from grade to a sand filter bed with gravelless chambers. The absorption area did not show any signs of failure and there was no standing liquid in the observation ports. Inspector Recommendations: Install effluent filter and add risers to the tank to bring them to grade. Department Recommendations: The department recommends making the distribution box accessible from grade. Issuance of this OWTS Use Permit is based solely on the conditions observed and reported by the inspector to the Department on the date of the inspection(s) and on Department records at the time of permitting. The issuance of this permit does not constitute a guarantee, warranty, or representation by the Department that the system will operate properly or will not fail or that the system will not be subject to future enforcement action to correct non-compliant conditions. Estimated capacity of the system has been listed on the permit and we recommend that you monitor and/or meter water use to prevent overuse and possible failure.

The subject OWTS consists of one 2000 -gallon two-compartment septic tank. A distribution box, not accessible from grade, distributes effluent to a sand filter bed with 80 standard Infiltrator chambers, as indicated on the attached as -built drawing. The as -built drawing was provided by Pitkin County Environmental Health Department. (Parcel ID # 2463-164-01-011) The septic tank appeared to be in good condition. Both inlet and outlet tees were in place. Although we typically recommend adding an effluent filter to the outlet tee of the septic tank, since the tee is not easily accessible from the manhole lid, this recommendation would be difficult to implement without extending the tee. The risers were approximately 12 -inches below grade. We recommend adding a riser to both the inlet and outlet sides of the tank. RotoRooter was present to pump the tank during the inspection. The absorption area is covered with a flagstone patio. Good vegetation is recommended above an absorption area; however, notes from Pitkin County indicate the county was aware of the patio when they approved the system. One observation port is present and there was no evidence of saturation in the absorption area. This evaluation is not a guarantee of future system performance. This inspection is good for one year. This report should be submitted to the Pitkin County Environmental Health Department. The following links are the required application and application checklist.
