Box 1534 Eagle, CO 81631 altitudeseptic@gmail.com www.altitudeseptic.com Travor Dunsdon with Altitude Septic was hired to conduct a septic system inspection on May 14, 2019 at 0035 Apache Trail Carbondale, Colorado 81623 to satisfy the requirements for a Pitkin County use permit. The legal description of the 0.830-acre property is Swiss Village Tracts Lot: 16 and the tax parcel number is 264929402023. The residence is in a rural area where an OWTS is necessary. The septic system was installed in the late 1960s or early 1970s, No records were available from Pitkin County Environmental Health Department indicating the system was installed before records were kept. The 500-gallon single compartment septic tank is located on the south side of the house with one access riser which is a six-inch pipe approximately thirty inches tall. The tank is made of concrete and was probably poured in place. Both baffles are present and according to the owner, the pipe from the house to the tank is cast iron. No clean -out exists between the house and the septic tank. Altitude Septic pumped the tank at the time of inspection and the liquid level was normal with no sign of leaking or fluctuation. The current owner does not recall having a back-up but indicated the toilet in the basement does some gurgling and has for some time. At one point the line was cleaned with a rooter machine which stopped the gurgling for a time, but it has since resumed. Overall the septic tank is in good condition, though it is undersized for the number of bedrooms in the residence. The absorption area is located east of the septic tank and consists of a dry well. There is no access at the surface, and the dry well was unable to be located by probing. There was no effluent surfacing or indications of failure that could be detected visually. It is recommended the dry well be located and made accessible with risers in order to better monitor the system. At this time, it appears the system is functioning as it should. Having completed the inspection, I would make the following recommendations • Pump the septic tank every two years, since the tank is undersized. • Locate and make the dry well accessible so its performance can be monitored. The septic system is around fifty years old and the tank does not meet current sizing requirements for a three - bedroom home (minimum would be 1,000 gallons) nor are there two compartments. However, currently system passes Pitkin County's Inspection process. If there will be significant changes in how the system is used, then I would recommend upgrading the septic system to current sizing stipulations. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email or call (970) 471-6292 to reach me directly. Sincerely, Travor Dunsdon Travor Dunsdon is a NAWT certified inspector, certification # 141221TC, which is valid until June 2020.

The tank is undersized for the number of bedrooms, and the pipes entering and exiting the tank are cast iron. The access to the septic tank is a six inch diameter pipe, which makes maintenance difficult. The access pipe had to be cut off in order to verify he condition of the tarik as well as whether baffle tees were present. List any recommendations for the continued use of the system: ecause of the size of the tank we recommend having it pumped every two years. The dry well should be located and made accessible to properly monitor the continued operation of the system. Were any repairs done as a result of this inspection? If Y: Describe repairs _ es, a new piece of pipe was installed for the riser. � Additional Notes. The owner is fairly certain a dry well exists for the absorption area, and was able to point out an approximate location. i attempted to find it by probing but was unsuccessful. However, the area was observed and gave no indication of surfacing or failure. Clearly label any pictures and upload them. ✓ To the best of my knowledge and training the information collected in this inspection is accurate. 42� 5116119 [Inspectors Signature Date: Save Form for Submittal Reset this form Print this form 2r, -lt .0 ilk IR ; in to 411 aLl =MAIL w ,W^31,4 I I
