Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit Inspection
404 Snowmass Creek Road
Pitkin County, Colorado
Richard,
As requested, CBO Inc. evaluated the existing Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) at 404
Snowmass Creek Road, Snowmass, Colorado on July 21, 2023. There are two residences on the
property. The primary residence is listed as 406 Snowmass Creek Road and the secondary unit is 404
Snowmass Creek Road. The legal description of the 23.19-acre property is as follows:
Legal Description: Subdivision: M/B SNOWMASS CREEK Tract: 75 Section: 27 Township: 8 Range: 86
PARCEL IN TR 75 IN SEC 27-8-86 LYING ELY OF THE ELY R-O-W LINE OF A CO RD AS CONSTR &
IN PLACE DESC BY M/B BK 521 PG 787 BK 610 PG 726 CONT 20.04 AC M/L PLAT BK 23 PG 63
Parcel ID: 2467-274-00-014
The permits and record drawings for the systems on the property were provided by Pitkin County
Environmental Health Department. The subject OWTS serving the secondary unit consists of one 1000-
gallon, two-compartment poly septic tank. Effluent gravity flows to a drywell, described as 13’ x 13’ x 10’
deep below the inlet. Individual Sewage Disposal System Permit 99037 documents this system. The
system was sized to accommodate 3 bedrooms. The permit received final approval on February 18,
2000.
Both the septic tank and drywell are located to the north of the residence. The septic tank was
experiencing slow draining. Based on observations in the field and drywell details provided in the
engineering documents with the Pitkin County permit, we decided to excavate the area of the drywell to
see if there was a blockage in the piping or possible isolated saturation in the drywell that could be
repaired. There is no void space in the drywell, more consistent with what might be considered a “deep
gravel system”. Distribution piping sits on top of the gravel that extends 10-feet deep.
On October 6, 2023, we met Altitude Septic on site and did camera work to locate the sewer line as it
entered the drywell. We excavated the area of the sewer line, which was between two pipes that
extended vertically into the gravel.
Effluent from the septic tank was not able to get to the gravel in the drywell because the pipes extending
vertically into the gravel were capped on the bottom and we do not believe they were perforated
(although we were not able to remove thos e pipes). As a result, effluent would back up into the sewer
line and the septic tank was not able to drain properly.
When we excavated the top of the drywell, all soils and gravel, even surrounding the vertical piping, was
dry. The only time effluent was encountered was when we hit (and broke) the sewer line.
The entire top of the gravel layer was uncovered, and new, 4-inch diameter perforated piping was laid on
the gravel in a loop formation. This will allow more equal distribution of effluent to the gravel.
We also recommended the following:
• Replace the sewer line from the septic tank to the drywell to eliminate sections of settled pipe.
• Install an effluent filter on the outlet tee of the septic tank. If installed, this filter must be cleaned
annually, or as needed.
• Add risers to bring the septic tank manhole lids to grade for future access.
No permits were necessary for this work. This packet is provided for future reference of the repairs.
Please call with questions.
Sincerely,
Carla Ostberg, MPH, REHS
