The lid on the inlet side of the tank was replaced. Note: The tank had filed with water after pumping. I observed water running out of the outlet while working on the titer. I would guess a water softener or toilet is leaking in the home. The work stated above was completed on Wednesday 11-27-2013. Please see attached photos.

The legal description of the 0.360 -acre property is Lot 31, Swiss Village Tracts. While the address listed on Pitkin County Assessor's Website is 201 Ute Trail, it is posted at the entrance to the property as 200 Ute Trail. The original permit and record drawing was provided by Pitkin County Environmental Health Department (Parcel ID # 2649-291-02-043). The subject OWTS consists of one 1000 -gallon, two- compartment concrete septic tank and a soil treatment area (STA) consisting of a gravelless chamber bed with 15 'Standard' Infiltrator® chambers per row for a total of 45 chambers and approximately 698 square feet of infiltrative area. Pitkin County Individual Sewage Disposal System Permit 04100, finalized on May 2, 2005, documents this system. Pitkin County also issued OWTS Use Permit 0056.2013.powu on December 4, 2013. The septic tank manhole lids were both accessible from grade. The septic tank appeared to be in good condition with both inlet and outlet tees present. The outlet side of the septic tank (risers) was showing signs of deterioration due to gasses. The upper opening of the inlet tee is capped. Sometimes, this is done to prevent odors from migrating back into the house. There are no issues with this cap remaining; however, it prevents visual inspection of flow coming into the septic tank. An effluent filter was installed on the outlet of the septic tank. This filter must be cleaned annually, or as needed. Accumulation of sludge and scum in the tank warrant pumping as part of routine maintenance. The septic tank must be pumped prior to obtaining the OWTS Use Permit. The STA had some snow cover; however, we were able to locate some inspection ports. The ports we observed were dry at the time of the inspection. The distribution box was not accessible from grade and we were not able to inspect this component. There was a trailer stored on the STA at the time of our inspection. We recommended it be removed without driving over the STA (pulled out by hand or with a winch). Weeds had overgrown the surface over the STA. The weeds were tilled out and we recommend plating a native grass seed mix needing minimal irrigation. The STA showed no signs of saturation, and had no indication of failure. This evaluation is not a guarantee of future system performance. This inspection is good for one year.

This inspection is intended only as an evaluation of the present condition of the OWTS based upon what was observed and the Licensed Inspector's expertise in onsite wastewater technology. The Inspector has not been retained to warrant or guarantee the proper functioning of the system for any period of time in the future. Because of numerous factors which may affect the operation of an OWTS, as well as the inability of the Inspector to supervise or monitor the use or maintenance of this OWTS, this report shall not be construed as a warranty by the Inspector that the system will function properly for any particular prospective buyer, and the Inspector disclaims any warranty, either expressed or implied, arising from the inspection of the OWTS or this report. The evaluation does not ascertain the impact the system is having on groundwater. Please call with questions.
