Will you need to contact the Environmental Health and Natural Resources
Department (EH/NR) for approval prior to receiving your building permit?
If any of the first 6 bulleted items below apply to your development, please make an appointment with
one of the Environmental Health professionals in the EH/NR Department (970-920-5070) to avoid delays
in obtaining your building permit. If you have any questions concerning the last bulleted item,, please
contact the Natural Resource Specialist (970-429-2033).
❑ The new construction (including an addition/remodel) will require an Individual Sewage Disposal
System (ISDS), or require the addition of capacity to an existing ISDS. In this case, a septic permit
must be issued prior to issuance of a building permit. A completed application packet must be
submitted to the EH/NR Department for permit consideration. The Pitkin County ISDS Regulations,
application, checklist, and other documents can be found at www.aspenpitkin.com/ehnr/ on the Onsite
Wastewater Treatment page.
The addition/remodel will use an existing ISDS. In this case, you will need to check with EH/NR staff
to determine whether the addition/remodel will require additional system capacity, or whether use of the
existing system is adequate to handle the development.
❑ A new building will be constructed with no plumbing (e.g., a barn or shed). In this case, EH/NR
will need to be contacted if any ISDS exists on the property to assure the new building will not
encroach on the absorption field or limit access to the tank(s).
❑ There are other ISDSs on the property, although none of those systems will serve the new
development. In this case, EH/NR will require a review of all ISDSs on the property to be sure they are
being maintained and they are legal. Multiple ISDSs on a single property (depending on location and
size) may need to be reviewed by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Water
Quality Control Division.
❑ The project involves a food service establishment (e.g., grocery or restaurant). EH/NR staff will
need to review any new construction or modifications to assure compliance with the Colorado Retail
Food Establishment Rules and Regulations. These regulations can be found at
http://www.cdphe.state.co.us/op/rens/consumer/101019retailfood pdf.
❑ The project involves. a childcare facility. In this case, EH/NR staff will need to review any new
construction or modifications to assure compliance with the State Board of Health's Rules and
Regulations Governing the Health and Sanitation of Child Care Facilities. These regulations can be
found at htt://www.cd he.state.co.us/o /reqs/consumer/l01007childcarecentersanitarystandards pdf.
❑ Your property is located on the Smuggler Superfund Site and you will be moving more than one
cubic yard of soil. In this case, you will need to complete a Smuggler Mountain Superfund Site Soil
Removal Permit
(see http://www.aspenpitkin.com/pdfs/depts/12/soil removal Permit affadavits pdf).

Hi Vicki — I can't remember if I replied to you on this or not.
I see documentation in this file that the existing system is sized for 4 bedrooms (permit 87035).
There is also a report from All Service Septic dated 8/29/07 stating the system was functioning and being maintained.
also see correspondence in the file from Nancy that she signed off on the building permit. We are OK for both sign off
on bldg permit and CO.
Thanks — and sorry if this is duplicate.

Mike:
This is to follow up on the issue Nancy has raised regarding the septic system on the Gaffney
parcel. Nancy stated the following to us in an email:
"Condition 10 of Administrative Decision No. 044-2007 requires the sewage disposal system to
be located within the approved building or development envelopes. The existing absorption
trenches are not located within the activity envelope. I will need something written from
COMDEV to confirm that this is okay with them. Once I get that, I can sign off on your building
permits."
Ad. Det. #44-2007 is attached for your review.
We didn't include the absorption trenches within the Activity Envelope because we didn't know
where they were located and we didn't need to do any work to them as a part of the
renovations to the property. Since we are not proposing any improvements to the portion of
the septic system that is outside of the Activity Envelope, would you be willing to give Nancy
the "OK" she has requested?
Thanks,

Onsite Wastewater System Evaluation, Existing Residence
2508 Juniper Hill Road
Pitkin County, Colorado
Tom,
Project No. 1386
As requested, ALL SERVICE septic, LLC performed an onsite wastewater system (OWS) evaluation
on August 28`h, 2007 for the subject property. A records search was performed at Pitkin County and
no records were available.
The subject property is located in Brush Creek Village, outside of the town of Aspen, Colorado. The
subject OWS consists of an approximate 1000 -gallon, two-compartment, concrete septic tank
followed by an approximate 500 -gallon dosing chamber with a dosing siphon. A standard drain field
with an observation port exists, as indicated on the attached drawing. An onsite well serves the
property located 200+ feet northwest of the existing drain field.
OBSERVATIONS
There was a thin scum layer in the first compartment of the septic tank (this is not indicative of a tank
that needs pumping). The septic tank appears in good condition, and had concrete risers and lids. The
dosing chamber and dosing siphon appear to be functioning. The liquid level in the septic tanks
indicated the tanks were functioning normally.
An observation pipe exists at the drain field and no liquid was observed. The drain field showed no
signs of surfacing effluent, and had no indication of failure. Vegetation over the drain field was
adequate.
RECOMMEDATIONS AND/OR CONCLUSIONS
1. The observed OWS is typical of a 3 to 4 bedroom system.
2. Ensure the dosing siphon is functioning.
w
OWS Evaluation
Project No. 1386

3. The septic tank and effluent filter should be pumped and cleaned every three years, or as
needed.
This evaluation is not a guarantee of any future drain field performance, in any way. ALL
SERVICE septic, LLC evaluated the OWS on August 28th 2007, and has no further knowledge of use
and/or performance, and/or any changes.
Please call with questions.

BRUSH CREEK VILLAGE SUBDIVISION
Administrative Decision NoO-q-2007
RECITALS
Thomas and Donna Gaffney (hereafter referred to as "Applicants") have applied to the Community
Development Director of Pitkin County ("Director") for Activity Envelope and Site Plan approval for an
addition to a single family residence and construction of a detached garage.
2. The Lot is located at 2508 Juniper Hill Road. Lot 10, Block 7, Filing 1 of the BOCC approved Brush Creek
Village and a adjoining merged metes and bounds parcel (Legal Description, Attachment A). PID#: 2643-
204-06-007.
The Lot is part of the Brush Creek Village BOCC approved subdivision recorded at BK 4 PG 121 (Rec.
No. 14I207). The Lot received 1041 approval to construct a single family residence pursuant to P & Z
Resolution 86-4.
4. The affidavit of public notice was mailed on April 24th, 2007 to the adjacent property owners of the
subject parcel. A comment was received from a neighbor within the 30 day period. Public notice was
published in the paper on April 22"d, 2007.
5. The Director finds that the Lot and proposed development: (1) is not mapped within any elk or mule
deer winter ranges; (2) will not impact wildlife if compliance with the following conditions are carried
out, (3) is within a severe wildfire hazard area and the hazard can be mitigated; and (4) is mapped
within a scenic view protection area as viewed from Hwy 82, McLain FIats Road, and Brush Creek
Road however the proposed additions to the residence and construction of a detached garage will not
have a substantial impact on the ridgeline if the following conditions are complied with. The existing
residence, proposed additions, and proposed garage will not be discernable from McLain Flats Road.
6. The Director finds this request is consistent with the requirements of the Land Use Code.
APPROVED by the Director, subject to the following conditions:
1 • The Applicants shall adhere to all material representations made in the current or prior applications or in
public meetings or hearings and shall consider those representations to be conditions of approval, unless
amended by other conditions.
2. No calculations for height, bulk, setback, size, floor area, or any other building and zoning requirements have
been conducted. These requirements will be considered at the time of building permit. Any structures
represen in the application may not be permitted under building and zoning regulations.
3. Prior to submission of any future building permit applications, the Applicants shall be required to submit
for approval by the County Attorney and Community Development a Site Plan with an Activity Envelope

7. All development on slopes 30% or greater shall comply with the following standards:
a. An engineer or geologist licensed in the State of Colorado shall be required to demonstrate that
the site can be engineered so that there is no hazard posed by the location of development on
such slopes.
b. To the extent possible, the development shall be designed so as to: avoid adding water to the
site that would cause decreased stability; avoid removing the toe of the slope without adequate
mechanical support; avoid increasing the weight load on top of the slope; re -contour disturbed
slopes so that they can be re -vegetated; avoid steepening of existing slopes.
8. If retaining walls are used they shall comply with the following standards:
a. Retaining walls may be permitted to support steep slopes but should not exceed four (4) feet in
height from the finished grade, except for (i) a structure's foundation wall, or (ii) as necessary to
