Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit Inspection
15470 Hwy 133
Pitkin County, Colorado
Hilary,
As requested, CBO Inc. performed an Onsite W astewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit
inspection at 15470 Hwy 133, Carbondale, Colorado on May 13, 2019. The legal description of the 2.0-
acre property is as follows:
Section: 4 Township: 10 Range: 88 LAND IN SE4SW4 OF SEC 4 & N2NW4 OF SEC 9-10-88 DESC BY
M/B BK 579 PG 596
No records were available from Pitkin County Environmental Health Department (Parcel ID #2729-092-
00-026). The Pitkin County Assessor’s site notes the house was constructed in 1978 and has 3-
bedrooms.
The subject OWTS consists of a minimum 1000-gallon, two-compartment concrete septic tank followed a
soil treatment area (STA) of unknown size, configuration, or exact location.
In 2017, RotoRooter installed a “Cured In-Place Pipe” (CIPP) from the house to the septic tank. The
original line was cast iron. Documents from RotoRooter are enclosed.
The septic tank is located on the south side of the residence. A foot of risers bring both manhole lids to
grade. The inlet tee was present and is PVC. The outlet tee was PVC and tucked under the lid of the
septic tank, making the addition of an effluent filter impossible without extending this tee to the manhole
lid opening.
The outlet side of the septic tank is showing signs of deterioration. The baffle wall was verified at the
time of our inspection. Liquid levels in the septic tank appeared normal at the time of our inspection. We
measured solids in the septic tank and found 1-foot of solids on the inlet side of the septic tank and over
2-feet on the outlet side, which is not typical. The septic tank must be pumped prior to obtaining an
OWTS Use Permit.
We also observed a 2-inch diameter pipe entering the riser on the outlet side of the septic tank. We
understand this pipe is connected to a lower level sink, which may have been added after initial
construction of the residence. It appears wastewater is adding to the solids on the outlet side of the
septic tank and the way it is plumbed has the potential to create more turbulence than desired on the
outlet side of the septic tank. The 2-inch sewer line must be plumbed into the main sewer line OR
into the inlet side of the septic tank. The best option for re-routing this should be explored since the
main sewer line was CIPP lined and we do not want to damage the existing line by cutting it. The
contractor chosen to perform this repair work must be a Licensed Pitkin County OWTS Contractor;
however, no permit is necessary for this repair work.
The exact location or configuration of the STA is not known. We walked the approximate area and no
inspection ports were present. No sign of surface saturation or evidence of failure was observed during
our inspection. A clean out is present just outside of the outlet side of the septic tank. We recommend
the sewer line between the septic tank and STA be explored to verify the location and possibly
configuration of the STA for future monitoring.
Required Repairs:
• Pump septic tank. Verify volume of septic tank at time of pumping. Invoice from pumping must
be include with submission of OWTS Use Permit Application.
• Re-route 2-inch line from sink into the inlet side of septic tank. Existing 2-inch line coming into
outlet riser may be capped. Invoice for repair work must also be included with submission of
OWTS Use Permit Application.
Recommendations:
• Camera sewer line as it exits the septic tank to identify location and possibly configuration of the
STA for future monitoring.
A completed OWTS Use Permit Application must be submitted to the Pitkin County Environmental
Health Department. Applications may be submitted to Pitkin County Environmental Health Department
electronically. The following are links to the required OWTS Use Permit Application and Checklist.
Application: http://www.pitkincounty.com/DocumentCenter/Home/View/621
Application Checklist: http://www.pitkincounty.com/DocumentCenter/Home/View/620
All questions regarding permit submission can be directed to Pitkin County Environmental Health
Department, 970-920-5070.
Disclaimer: 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.

Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit Inspection / Repair Verification
15470 Hwy 133
Pitkin County, Colorado
Hilary,
As requested, CBO Inc. performed follow-up inspection of the Onsite W astewater Treatment System
(OWTS) serving 15470 Hwy 133, Carbondale, Colorado on June 12, 2019.
The septic tank was pumped by RotoRooter on June 7, 2019. The invoice is enclosed. It should be
noted that the septic tank has a mid-seam. All levels were normal at the time of our initial inspection.
The 2-inch diameter pipe entering the riser on the outlet side of the septic tank was re-routed to the inlet
pipe entering the septic tank. See photos below. The 2-inch line in the inlet riser was capped.
Disclaimer: 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.
