RE: Lot 5, Filing 1 Capitol Woods Subdivision, Also Known and
Numbered as 0043 Starlit Lane
Dear Mr. Flanigan:
On March 20, 1990, this department conducted an inspection
of the referenced property, owned by you, for the purpose of
evaluating the on-site wastewater disposal and water supply
systems serving the existing dwelling. The inspection was
requested by you. This letter is our opinion of the suitability
and compliance of the systems with local and State public health
codes and accepted sanitary practices.
A :review of our office records indicates that the sewage
disposal. system consists of a 1000 gallon concrete septic tank
and 648 square feet of seepage bed absorption area constructed in
1974. A copy of the individual sewage disposal permit is
enclosed. It indicates that this department inspected and
approved the construction of this system before it was placed in
operation. A visual inspection of the premises indicates that
the sewage system is apparently functioning satisfactorily at
this time. However, we wish to emphasize that this letter is not
to be interpreted as implying any warranty regarding this sewage
disposal system.
As a part of this inspection, the septic tank was pumped,
receiving the maintenance required every two years by County
regulation.
Water to this residence is reportedly supplied from a
spring. A sample collected on March 26, 1990 fails to meet the
standards for coliform bacteria established in the Colorado
Primary Drinking Water Regulations. The results are attached.
We would recommend investigating alternatives for point of use
disinfection.
If you have any further questions regarding this letter or
if we may provide additional assistance, please call.
Respectfully submitted,
Carolyn. Ha din
