Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit Inspection
1200 Ridge of Wildcat
Pitkin County, Colorado
Flynn,
As requested, CBO Inc. performed an Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit
inspection at 1200 Ridge of Wildcat, Snowmass, Colorado on May 20, 2014. The legal description
of the 199.9 acre property is Lot 1, Gentry Lot Split.
The permit and record drawing was provided by Pitkin County Environmental Health Department
(Parcel ID #2645-354-01-001). The subject OWTS consists of an ejector pump (not inspected),
followed by one 2000 -gallon, single -compartment concrete septic tank, followed by a 2000 -gallon,
single compartment concrete septic tank with an effluent filter on the outlet side, followed by a 1000 -
gallon, single compartment concrete septic tank a Biotube@ Pump Vault in the second compartment.
Effluent is pumped to two automatic distributing valves (ADVs). The absorption area consists of two
sets of beds, referred to as Field A and Field B. Each field has three beds, each with three rows of
100 -feet of Standard Infiltrator@ chambers in each row. The absorption area is documented by
Pitkin County Individual Sewage Disposal System (ISDS) Permit 07071 and the modification was
documented by Pitkin County OWTS Permit 003.2011.powt.
All three septic tanks appeared to be in good condition, with the appropriate tees in place. The first
tank appeared to have more settling of solids in the outlet side of the tank than the inlet side. We
suspect this tank is not level, front to back. As this is the first of several tanks in series, the tank
being out of level should not affect the overall functioning of the system; however, this condition
appears to be negating some of the tank capacity. This tank had an accumulation approximately
20 -inches of solids in the outlet side and should be pumped. The second tank in the series has
an effluent filter on the outlet tee. This filter should be cleaned annually, or as needed. The
handle extension on the effluent filter is equipped with fittings made of metal. This and any other
metal fittings inside the septic tanks should be replaced with stainless steel or other material that will
not deteriorate in a moist environment. The third tank in series has an OrencoO Biotube Pump Vault
in the second compartment. This filter should also be cleaned annually, or as needed.
The control panel for the pump is located in the crawl space accessed outside of the house.
Walkie-talkies were used to test the pumps, alarms, and ADVs. All were working properly. As part
of routine maintenance, these cartridges should be replaced based on manufacturer (Orenco@)
recommendations. When the alarm was tested, Apex Security called to confirm the alarm.

The absorption area is located north of the septic tanks. Observation ports were present and all
were dry. This evaluation is not a guarantee of future system performance. This inspection is good
for one year.
Recommendations:
• Pump first septic tank in series (2000 gallons).
• Clean filters annually, or as needed.
• Replace any metal fittings with material appropriate in a moist environment.

This OWTS Construction Permit is approved on the condition of compliance with the engineer design as submitted with the application and the specifications
cited above. Changes must be approved by this Department and the engineer prior to construction.
The existing system was designed for an 11 bedroom (ISDS Permit 01071). There will only be modifications to the tanks and
method of dispersal to the existing field. The existing tanks will be abandoned or removed. fl new lift station be stalleo,
followed by two consecutive 20122.2231lon ingle co rtm with an effluent filter on the outlet tee of the second tank.
This will be follow wed by one 00 gallon single compartment tank with an Orenco duplex pumps st Two automatic
clistribu ' valves will be installed and each connected to 4 beds, designated as "Field A & B". The last set of existing laterals
will be abandoned. The ends of the existing infiltrator runs will need to be excavated and existing distribution lines will need to
be removed before the installation of new distribution lines to the existing absorption field. Required absorption area under
current regulation calls for 5785 sq ft To create a configuration that allows equal distribution of effluent to each field, the last
bed will be eliminated (697 sq ft} to leave a total absorption area of 5580 sq ft. This area was calculated using 80mpi (not
factoring in the 2' of sand filter material below the chamber}. The shorkage of 205 square feet is less than 5% of the total
required area which is negligible. This should not affect system function.
This Permit must be kept on-site during installation. The engineer must do a final inspection of the installation and submit an "as -built" letter to this
Department within 30 days of the final inspection, unless a longer period of time has been agreed upon, in writing. This department must also be called for
the final inspection with a minimum of 48 hours notice.
Minimum horizontal distances between components of the system and physical features shall conform to the requirements of the Pitkin County OWTS
Regulation.
This Permit is conditioned upon the property owner(s) providing for regular inspection, cleaning, and maintenance of the system by qualified personnel, in
accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations and the requirements of the Pitkin County OWTS Regulation. Issuance of this OWTS Construction
Permit does not constitute a guarantee, warranty, or representation by the Department that the system will operate properly or will not fail.
THIS PERMIT IS EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON COMPLIANCE WITH ALL REQUIREMENTS OF THE PITKIiN

and bedrock will be maintained during installation. Design is based on a perc rate of 80 mpi. A 300h reduction
for infiltrator in beds is taken because of the 2 feet of sand below the units.
This department does not endorse any brand of products. The engineer must do a final inspection of the
