Purpose: To clarify the treatment of multiple Individual Sewage
Disposal Systems with combined capacities exceeding
2,000 gallons per day serving as a community system
or serving a single property or wastewater generator
with respect to the site application process.
Policy/
Procedures: Multiple Individual Sewage Disposal Systems shall be
be treated as a single domestic wastewater treatment
works and be subject to site application and plans
and specifications reviews and approvals if:
l.a. the systems serve a single habitable structure
(i.e., school., church, apartment building); or
b. the systems serve a number of'habitable structures
on a single property (i.e., mobile home park,
lodge or resort, shopping center) and the minimum
horizontal separations to be maintained, from one
system's components to springs or wells (based on
design capacities of the individual systems)
overlap the minimum horizontal separations of
another system's components; or
C. commonly owned systems serve a number of habitable
structures on separate properties (i.e:, condomin-
iums, townhouses, single family houses, etc.) and
minimum horizontal separations of two or more of
the systems overlap as.in I.b. above; or
d. the systems are interconnected such that wastewater
may flow from one system to another; and
2. the -combined design capacities of the systems
exceeds 2,000 gpd, irrespective of whether the
systems were constructed at the same time or at
"""' different times.

Background: The lack of guidance with regard to such circumstances
has led to inconsistencies between counties as to the
need for Division involvement in the review of these
systems. Instances have also arisen in which clients
have been advised that the Division's processes could
be circumvented through the use of multiple systems.
In at least one instance, a community water supply well
has been impacted by an array of septic tanks/leachfield
systems surrounding it.

Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design, Proposed Residence, Guest
Facilities and Studio, Knapp Property, West Lake Creek, Eagle County,
Colorado.
Gentlemen:
As requested, we have conducted a subsoil study for the proposed buildings at the
subject site.
Subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory borings drilled throughout the
development area consist of silty clayey sands and gravels with cobbles and scattered
boulders. Groundwater was encountered at variable depths in the borings and was
generally shallow in the. guest facilities area. Groundwater was encountered at about 16
feet below the ground surface in the residence site and the studio site was dry.
The proposed buildings can be founded on spread footings placed on the natural
subsoils. The guest facility and studio buildings should be designed for an allowable
bearing pressure of 3,000 psf and the residence building should be designed for an
allowable bearing pressure of 2,000 psf. Precautions should be taken to control
groundwater seepage impact on the below grade building construction.
The report which follows describes our investigation, summarizes our findings, and
presents our recommendations. It is important that we provide consultation during
design, and field services during construction to review and monitor the implementation
of the geotechnical recommendations.
If you have any questions regarding this report, please contact us.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF STUDY
This report presents the results of a subsoil study for the proposed residence,
guest facilities and studio buildings to be located on the Knapp property, West Lake
Creek, Eagle County, Colorado. The project site is shown on Plate I and Fig. 1. The
purpose of the study was to develop recommendations for the foundation and septic
disposal designs. The study was conducted in accordance with our agreement for
geotechnical engineering services to Bud and Betsy Knapp, dated March 30, 1994.
A field exploration program consisting of exploratory borings and percolation
testing was conducted to obtain information on subsurface conditions. Samples
obtained during the field exploration were tested in the laboratory to determine
compressibility and other engineering characteristics of the on -site soils. The results of
the field exploration and laboratory testing were analyzed to develop recommendations
for foundation types, depths and allowable pressures for the proposed building
foundation and for feasibility of infiltration septic disposal systems. This report
summarizes the data obtained during this study and presents our conclusions, design
recommendations and other geotechnical engineering considerations based on the
proposed construction and the subsoil conditions encountered.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The proposed development will consist of a fairly large residence, 4 guest
cottages and a studio located approximately as shown on Fig. 1. The initial .
construction will consist of the guest cottages. Typically, the guest cottages will be 2 to
3 stories of wood frame construction with a walkout lower level. The proposed
residence will be 2 stories of wood frame construction with a walkout lower level. The
existing lake will be extended along the east side of the garage. Grading for the
structures is assumed to be relatively minor with cut depths between about 8 to 12 feet.
We assume relatively light to moderate foundation loadings, typical of the proposed
type of construction.
If building loadings, location or grading plans change significantly from those
described above, we should be notified to reevaluate the recommendations contained in
-2-
this report. We should review the grading and subsurface drainage plans for the
residence and guest cottages.
PREVIOUS POND CONSTRUCTION
The existing pond next to the residence site was constructed in 1991. A
soil-bentonite liner was installed in 1992 after excessive seepage was experienced
through the winter. We have been provided observation testing reports by
Chen -Northern for the embankment and pond liner construction. Two feet of on -site
silt and clay with at least one foot of 5 % to 6 % bentonite treated soil liner was
installed.
SITE CONDITIONS
The property consists of hilly and rolling terrain with a general slope down the
south-southwest toward West Lake Creek. The topography of the property is indicated
by the contour lines on Fig. 1. Vegetation consists of aspen and evergreen stands with
grass, weeds and sage brush in open areas. Occasional boulders between about 6 to 10
feet in size were observed on the ground surface. Snow was patchy and up to about 2
1/2 feet deep at the time of our field exploration work. Numerous springs and seeps
were observed in the guest cottages area. The pond embankment is about 10 feet high
in the proposed residence area. The existing pond is located just north of the proposed
residence. Willows are located in the natural draw below the pond.
FIELD EXPLORATION
The field exploration for the project was conducted on April 20 and 21, 1994.
Fourteen exploratory borings were drilled at the locations shown on Fig. 1 to evaluate
H-P GEOTECH
-3-
the subsurface conditions. The borings were advanced with 4-inch diameter continuous
flight augers powered by a track -mounted CME-45 drill rig.. A profile pit for septic
disposal was dug on May 26, 1994 with a backhoe. The borings and pit were logged
by a representative of Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. Percolation testing was
conducted at 4 locations for infiltration septic disposal systems at the different building
sites.
Samples of the subsoils were taken with 1 3/8-inch and 2-inch I.D. spoon
samplers. The samplers were driven into the subsoils at various depths with blows
from a 140-pound hammer falling 30 inches. This test is similar to the standard
penetration test described by ASTM Method D-1586. The penetration resistance values
are an indication of the relative density or consistency of the subsoils. Depths at which
the samples were taken and the penetration resistance values are shown on the Logs of
Exploratory Borings, Figs. 2 and 3. The samples were returned to our laboratory for
review by the project engineer and testing.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Graphic logs of the subsurface conditions encountered at the site are shown on
Figs. 2 and 3. The subsoils consist of between 1 and 3 feet of topsoil overlying
medium dense to dense, silty to clayey sands and gravels containing cobbles and
scattered boulders. Drilling in the dense gravel with auger equipment was difficult due
to the cobbles and boulders and occasional drilling refusal was encountered in the
deposits. The subsoils are mainly stratified, silty gravelly sands in the residence area.
About 6 feet of compacted embankment fill was encountered at Boring 9. Stiff clay was
encountered at 25 feet below the natural sands in Boring 7. The soils have typically
low to non -plastic fines.
Laboratory testing performed on samples obtained from the borings included
natural moisture content, density, gradation analyses, and liquid and plastic limits.
H-P GEOTECH
SM
Results of consolidation testing performed on a relatively undisturbed drive sample of
silty sand, presented on Fig. 5, indicate low to moderate compressibility under
conditions of loading and wetting. Results of gradation analyses performed on small
diameter drive samples (minus 1 1/2-inch fraction) of the natural granular subsoils are
shown on Figs. 6-9. The laboratory testing is summarized in Table I.
Free water was encountered in most of the borings drilled in the guest cottages
area between about 3 to 5 feet and at 16 feet at the residence. No free water was
encountered at the studio site.
FOUNDATION BEARING CONDITIONS
The subsoils encountered at shallow depth consist mainly of granular soils
suitable for lightly to moderately loaded spread footings. The soils encountered in the
guest facility area and studio site contain considerable gravel to boulder size material
and are medium dense to dense. The soils encountered in the residence are very sandy
with scattered cobbles and are medium dense. Cuts made for below grade building
construction in the guest cottages and residence could require excavation dewatering
and installation of subsurface drainage to permanently lower the groundwater level.
The pond should be lined both below the new water surface area and against the
building foundation. The lining should not allow flow to beneath the residence which
could result in foundation movement. A synthetic liner will probably be required.
DESIGN RECOMN ENDATIONS
FOUNDATIONS
Considering the subsoil conditions encountered in the exploratory borings and
the nature of the proposed construction, we recommend the buildings be founded with
spread footings bearing on the natural granular soils.
H-P GEOTECH
-5-
The design and construction criteria presented below should be observed for a
spread footing foundation system.
1) Footings placed on the undisturbed natural granular soils should be designed for
an allowable bearing pressure of 3,000 psf for the guest facility and studio
buildings and 2,000 psf for the residence building. Based on experience, we
expect settlement of footings designed and constructed as discussed in this
section will be about 1 inch or less. Seepage from the pond could cause some
additional differential settlement of the residence.
2) The footings should have a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous walls
and 2 feet for isolated pads.
3) Exterior footings and footings beneath unheated areas should be provided with
adequate soil cover above their bearing elevation for frost protection. Placement
of foundations at least 48 inches below exterior grade is typically .used in this
area.
4) Continuous foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span local
anomalies such as by assuming an unsupported length of at least 10 feet.
Foundation walls acting as retaining structures should also be designed to resist
lateral earth pressures as discussed in the "Foundation and Retaining Walls"
section of this report.
5) The topsoil and any loose or disturbed soils should be removed and the footing
bearing level extended down to relatively dense natural granular soils. Voids
created by boulder removal should be backfilled with on -site granular soil
compacted to at least 100 % of standard Proctor density or with concrete. If
water seepage is encountered, the footing areas should be dewatered before
concrete placement. In the guest area, some of the excavations may need to be
dewatered by a trench drain located uphill and separate from the building cut.
The existing embankment fill in the residence area should be evaluated for
footing support at the time of excavation.
H-P GEOTECH
I.
6) A representative of the soil engineer should observe all footing excavations prior
to concrete placement to evaluate bearing conditions. .
FOUNDATION AND RETAINING WALLS
Foundation walls and retaining structures which are laterally supported and can
be expected to undergo only a slight amount of deflection should be designed for a
lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of 45 pcf
for backfill consisting of the on -site granular soils. Self supported cantilevered
retaining structures which are separate from the building foundations and can be
expected to deflect sufficiently to mobilize the full active earth pressure condition
should be designed for a lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent
fluid unit weight of 35 pcf for backfill consisting of the on -site granular soils. Topsoil,
clay soils and oversized rock should not be used as backfill material.
All foundation and retaining structures should be designed for appropriate
hydrostatic and surcharge pressures such as adjacent footings, traffic, construction
materials and equipment. The pressures recommended above assume drained conditions
behind the walls and a horizontal backfill surface. The buildup of water behind a wall
or an upward sloping backfill surface will increase the lateral pressure imposed on a
foundation wall or retaining structure. An underdrain should be provided to prevent
hydrostatic pressure buildup behind walls.
Backfill should be placed in uniform lifts and compacted to at least 90 % of the
maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum. Backfill in
pavement and walkway areas should be compacted to at least 95 % of the maximum
standard Proctor density. Care should be taken not to overcompact the backfill or use
large equipment near the wall since this could cause excessive lateral pressure on the
wall. Some settlement of deep foundation wall backfill should be expected even if the
material is placed correctly and could result in distress to facilities constructed on the
backfill.
H-P GEOTECH
-7-
We recommend relatively free draining granular soils for backfilling founda4
walls and retaining structures because their use results in lower lateral earth pressure,
and the backfill can be incorporated into the underdrain system. Subsurface drainage
recommendations are discussed in more detail in the "Underdrain System" section of
this report. Granular wall backfill should contain less than 25 % passing the No. 200
sieve and have a maximum size of 6 inches.
The lateral resistance of foundation or retaining wall footings will be a
combination of the sliding resistance of the footing on the foundation materials and
passive earth pressure against the side of the footing. Resistance to sliding at the
bottoms of the footings can be calculated based on a coefficient of friction of 0.5 in the
guest facilities and studio areas and 0.4 in the residence area. Passive pressure against
the sides of the footings can be calculated using an equivalent fluid unit weight of 350
pcf for a dry backfill condition and 200 pcf for a submerged condition. The coefficient
of friction and passive pressure values recommended above assume ultimate soil
strength. Suitable factors of safety should be included in the design to limit the strain
which will occur at the ultimate strength, particularly in the case of passive resistance.
Fill placed against the sides of the footings to resist lateral loads should be a granular
material compacted to at least 95 % of the maximum standard Proctor density at a
moisture content near optimum.
FLOOR SLABS
The natural on -site soils, exclusive of topsoil, are suitable to support lightly
loaded slab -on -grade construction. To reduce the effects of some differential
movement, floor slabs should be separated from all bearing walls and columns with
expansion joints which allow unrestrained vertical movement. Floor slab control joints
should be used to reduce damage due to shrinkage cracking. The requirements for joint
spacing and slab reinforcement should be established by the designer based on
experience and the intended slab use. A minimum 4-inch layer of free -draining gravel
H-P GEOTECH
should be placed beneath basement level slabs to facilitate drainage. This material
should consist of minus 2-inch aggregate with at least 50 % retained on the No. 4 sieve
and less than 2% passing the No. 200 sieve.
All fill materials for support of floor slabs should be compacted to at least 95 %
of maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum. Required
fill can consist of the on -site sands and gravels devoid of vegetation, topsoil and
oversized rock.
UNDERDRAIN SYSTEM
Free water was encountered at shallow depth in the guest facilities area and
could be encountered in the residence area below the pond. It has been our experience
in mountainous areas that the groundwater level can rise and local perched groundwater
can develop during times of heavy precipitation or seasonal runoff. Frozen ground
during spring runoff can create a perched condition. We recommend below grade
construction, such as retaining walls, crawl space and basement areas, be protected
from wetting and hydrostatic pressure buildup by an underdrain system. The system
should be overbuilt in the existing shallow groundwater areas of the guest buildings to
help reduce the risk of future groundwater impact on below grade areas.
The drains should consist of drainpipe placed in the bottom of the wall backfill
surrounded above the invert level with free -draining granular material. The drain
should be placed at each level of excavation and at least l foot below lowest adjacent
finish grade and sloped at a minimum 1 % to a suitable gravity outlet. Deeper pipe
invert and additional interior lateral drains could be needed in shallow water areas.
Free -draining granular material used in the underdrain system should contain less than
2% passing the No. 200 sieve, less than 50% passing the No. 4 sieve and have a
maximum size of 2 inches. The drain gravel backfill should be at least 2 feet deep.
The drain gravel should be extended up the excavation face to intercept any
embankment seepage.
H-P GEOTECH
SITE GRAD `.NG
Deep excavations made on steep slopes or to below the groundwater level will
increase the risk of construction induced slope instability at the site. The risk appears
low for dry cuts made for basement or below grade areas up to about one level, 10 to
12 feet deep. In shallow groundwater areas, pre -excavation dewatering could be
needed. Fills should be limited to about 8 to 10 feet deep, especially on steep slopes
downhill of the buildings. Embankment fills should be compacted to at least 95 % of
the maximum standard Proctor density near optimum moisture content. Prior to fill
placement, the subgrade should be carefully prepared by removing all vegetation and
topsoil and compacting to 95 % standard Proctor density. The fill should be benched
into the portions of the hillside exceeding 20% grade.
Permanent unretained cut and fill slopes should be graded at 2 horizontal to
1 vertical or flatter and protected against erosion by revegetation or other means. The
risk of slope instability will be increased if seepage is encountered in cuts and flatter
slopes may be necessary. If seepage is encountered in permanent cuts, an investigation
should be conducted to determine if the seepage will adversely affect the cut stability.
This office should review site grading and drainage plans for the project prior to
construction.
SURFACE DRAINAGE
The following drainage precautions should be observed during construction and
maintained at all times after the buildings have been completed:
1) Inundation of the foundation excavations and underslab areas should be avoided
during construction.
2) Exterior backfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisture and compacted to
at least 95 % of the maximum standard Proctor density in pavement and slab
areas and to at least 90 % of the maximum standard Proctor density in landscape
areas.
H-P GEOTECH
-10-
3) The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the buildings should be sloped to
drain away from the foundation in all directions. We. recommend a minimum
slope of 12 inches in the first 10 feet in unpaved areas and a minimum slope of
3 inches in the first 10 feet in paved areas. Free -draining wall backfill should be
capped with about 2 feet of the on -site finer graded soils to reduce surface water
infiltration.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all
backfill.
PERCOLATION TESTING
Profile holes were drilled or dug at 5 locations and percolation testing conducted
to evaluate the feasibility of infiltration septic disposal systems. The profile hole logs
are shown on Figs. 2 and 3 and the percolation testing results are presented in Table II.
Four of the areas tested appear suitable for an infiltration septic disposal system. The
variable test results are due to the variable subsoils encountered. An average
percolation rate of 30 minutes per inch should be adequate for conventional leach field
design. The area of Boring 4A had groundwater at about 3 feet deep and does not
appear feasible for infiltration disposal. Other areas may have groundwater and the
systems should be kept as shallow as possible. All of the systems should be designed
by a civil engineer.
LIMITATIONS
This report has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
geotechnical engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no
other warranty either expressed or implied. The conclusions and recommendations
submitted in this report are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory borings
and pit located as indicated on Fig. 1, the proposed type of construction and our
H-P GEOTECH
-11-
experience in the area. Our findings include interpolation and extrapolation of the
subsurface conditions identified at the exploratory borings and pit and variations in the
subsurface conditions may not become evident until excavation is performed. If
conditions encountered during construction appear different from those described in this
report, we should be notified so that re-evaluation of the recommendations may be
made.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for design
purposes. We are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our
information. As the project evolves, we should provide continued consultation and field
services during construction to review and monitor the implementation of our
recommendations, and to verify that the recommendations have been appropriately
interpreted. Significant design changes may require additional analysis or modifications
to the recommendations presented herein. We recommend on -site observation of
excavations and foundation bearing strata and testing of structural fill by a
representative of the soil engineer.

flight power auger. Pit 1 was dug on May 26, 1994 with a backhoe.
2. Locations of the exploratory borings were measured approximately by pacing from features
shown on the site plan provided and corner sakes of guest buildings.
3. Elevations of the exploratory borings were obtained by interpolation between contours on the
site plan provided.
4. The exploratory boring locations and elevations should be considered accurate only to the
degree implied by the method used.
5. The lines between materials shown on the exploratory boring logs represent the approximate
boundaries between material types and transitions may be gradual.

The Environmental Health Division would like to notify you to
make a formal request to extend your Individual Sewage Disposal
System(ISDS) Permit #1374-94 into the 1995 construction year.
The Environmental Health Division discontinued percolation tests
on November 15, 1994 and final inspections on December 2, 1994
due to climatic conditions.
ISDS permits are active for 120 days after the date of issue if
no Building Permit has been issued for the same property. If a
Building Permit has been issued for the same property the ISDS
will expire at the same time as the building permit.
If you still plan to apply for a Building Permit this year or in
the early months of 1995 you will need to have a percolation test
conducted before your Building Permit will be released. You will
have to contact a Registered Professional Engineering(RPE) firm
to conduct your percolation test.
If you have had your permit issued and have not had your final
inspection completed, but plan on constructing the system in the
next few weeks, please give our office a call and we will
evaluate your permit on a case by case situation.
Please give the Environmental Health office a call at 328-8755,
if you have any questions regarding your permit extension
process.

INTRODUCTION
The Knapp Property is located at the upper reach of West Lake Creek, covering what was
formerly the Tenderwild Subdivision. The terrain of the site varies from steep and gentle slopes to
meadow.
Revision: Upon excavation for the tank at the "Little Lodge", groundwater was encountered at an
approximate depth of seven (7) feet. Therefore, proposed septic system #1 will be abandoned. The
leach field of proposed septic system 2, which is already in place, will be expanded to include waste
from the "Little Lodge". A 1000 gallon septic tank will be placed outside the "Little Lodge" and
sewer pipe will connect it to the leach field. Septic system lA (see calculations) will serve the
"Double Cabin" with a 1000 gallon septic tank and a leach field to the north of previously proposed
septic system 1 (see revised site plan).
PROPOSED USE
Four (4) cabins for intermittent use. One cabin will have a kitchen and serve as the central
gathering place. The other three (3) cabins are for bedroom use only. Two septic systems will be
built for the cabins. See site plan.
QUANTITY OF SEWAGE (Revised)
System IA:
3 bedroom "double cabin" (2 people/br)
(6 people)(75 gpd)(150%) = 675 gallons CD
System 2 (Revised):
1 bedroom "Little Lodge" (3.5 people)
2 bedroom 'B cabin" (2 people/br) v
3 bedroom "triple cabin" (2 people/br)
(13.5 people)(75 gpd)(150%) = 1519 gallons
SEPTIC TANK SIZE (Revised)
System IA:
(675 gpd/24)30 hrs = 844 gallons - - one 1000 gallon tank for the "double cabin"
System 2 (Revised):
(1519 gpd/24)30 hrs = 1899 gallons -- two 1000 gallon tanks in series for 'B cabin"
and triple cabin; one 1000 gallon tank for
"Little Lodge"
PERCOLATION TEST, SOIL PROFILE HOLE
Percolation tests and the soil profile review were completed by Hepworth-Pawlack
Geotechnical, Inc., per attached report.
System 1:
Perc Test Hole P-4-4 60 min/inch
P-4-5 15 min/inch
P-4-6 7 min/inch
Average = 27.3 min/inch -- use 30 min/inch
The percolation rate of 60 min/inch on P-4-4 causes some concern. Hepworth-Pawlack feel
that this result is somewhat of an aberration. The average of the three P-4 test pits is 27.3. We are
using 30 min/inch to be conservative.
System 2:
Perc Test Hole P-2-1 7.5 min/inch
P-2-2 30 min/inch
P-2-2 30 min/inch

Average = 22.5 min/inch -- use 30 min/inch

GENERAL NOTES
1. Contact Alpine Engineering, Inc. at least 48 hours prior to installing any septic system improvement.
2. Compact sewer trenches to 90% standard proctor density, or per soils engineer's recommendations.
3. Compact to 95% standard proctor density, below distribution boxes, etc., or per soils engineer's
recommendations.
4. Provide risers on septic tanks to finish grade.
5. Comply with all Eagle County and Colorado Department of Health regulations regrading septic system
installation.
6. Provide inspection portals per Eagle County regulations.
7. Provide minimum 5' horizontal distance between trees and sewer lines and septic tanks.
8. Field align sewer to avoid existing trees, buildings, and structures.
9. Provide 3' minimum cover and 2% minimum slope and 10% maximum slope from building to septic
tank.
10. Provide cleanouts at bends.
11. Sewer line to be schedule 40 PVC.
12. Provide 6' minimum between trenchwalls.
13. Provide 5' minimum clear horizontal between trees and sewer pipes and septic tank.
14. Install infiltrator system per manufacturer's recommendations and Eagle County Health Department
requirements.
15. Do not begin any sewer construction prior to notification of Alpine Engineering, Inc., Glenn Palmer 926-
3373. The septic system is also to be inspected by Alpine Engineering, Inc. prior to back fill: contact
Alpine Engineering, Inc. for this purpose as well.
16. The splitter tee must have equal invert out elevation(s) on all pipes leaving the tee.
17. We recommend that the disposal field be seeded after installation of the subsurface disposal system. A
good native grass cover will promote evapotranspiration from the field. We recommend using a see mix
such as a Foothills, Pasture, or Prairie mix, available at local feed and seed stores. These mixes do not
require irrigation and develop a growth 10 to 15 inches high. No automatic sprinkler system should be
installed above the disposal field.
18. The owner must realize an onsite sewage disposal system is considerably different from public sewer
services. The Owner must be aware of and assume the responsibility for continued maintenance of the
system. We recommend the pumping of the septic tanks at the end of the first year of use to monitor
sludge accumulation and at a minimum of every two years afterward. There are also daily
considerations, such as not putting plastic or other nonbiodegradable material down the sewage disposal
system. Also, water use must be carefully monitored so toilets are not allowed to run when seals
malfunction. To illustrate the point, it should be noted a running toilet will consume in excess of 1000
gallons per day if allowed to run. Excessive loading (such as running toilets) will flood and irrevocably
harm the system, and stress the onsite well.
19. Provide minimum 10' separation between water and sewer lines, or encase per Colorado Department of
Health Regulations.
20. Provide two ties to sewer cleanouts, septic tank, and absorption trench corners, as required by Eagle
County for as-builts.
21. Septic system approval is conditional upon receipt of as -built information.

Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design, Proposed Residence, Guest
Facilities and Studio, Knapp Property, West Lake Creek, Eagle County,
Colorado.
Gentlemen:
As requested, we have conducted a subsoil study for the proposed buildings at the
subject site.
Subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory borings drilled throughout the
development area consist of silty clayey sands and gravels with cobbles and scattered
boulders. Groundwater was encountered at variable depths in the borings and was
generally shallow in the- guest facilities area. Groundwater was encountered at about 16
feet below the ground surface in the residence site and the studio site was dry.
The proposed buildings can be founded on spread footings placed on the natural
subsoils. The guest facility and studio buildings should be designed for an allowable
bearing pressure of 3,000 psf and the residence building should be designed for an
allowable bearing pressure of 2,000 psf. Precautions should be taken to control
groundwater seepage impact on the below grade building construction.
The report which follows describes our investigation, summarizes our findings, and
presents our recommendations. It is important that we provide consultation during
design, and field services during construction to review and monitor the implementation
of the geotechnical recommendations.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF STUDY
This report presents the results of a subsoil study for the proposed residence,
guest facilities and studio buildings to be located on the Knapp property, West Lake
Creek, Eagle County, Colorado. The project site is shown on Plate I and Fig. 1. The
purpose of the study was to develop recommendations for the foundation and septic
disposal designs. The study was conducted in accordance with our agreement for
geotechnical engineering services to Bud and Betsy Knapp, dated March 30, 1994.
A field exploration program consisting of exploratory borings and percolation
testing was conducted to obtain information on subsurface conditions. Samples
obtained during the field exploration were tested in the laboratory to determine
compressibility and other engineering characteristics of the on -site soils. The results of
the field exploration and laboratory testing were analyzed to develop recommendations
for foundation types, depths and allowable pressures for the proposed building
foundation and for feasibility of infiltration septic disposal systems. This report
summarizes the data obtained during this study and presents our conclusions, design
recommendations and other geotechnical engineering considerations based on the -
proposed construction and the subsoil conditions encountered.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The proposed development will consist of a fairly large residence, 4 guest
cottages and a studio located approximately as shown on Fig. 1. The initial
construction will consist of the guest cottages. Typically, the guest cottages will be 2 to
3 stories of wood frame construction with a walkout lower level. The proposed
residence will be 2 stories of wood frame construction with a walkout lower level. The
existing lake will be extended along the east side of the garage. Grading for the
structures is assumed to be relatively minor with cut depths between about 8 to 12 feet.
We assume relatively light to moderate foundation loadings, typical of the proposed
type of construction.
If building loadings, location or grading plans change significantly from those
described above, we should be notified to reevaluate the recommendations contained in
-2-
this report. We should review the grading and subsurface drainage plans for the
residence and guest cottages.
PREVIOUS POND CONSTRUCTION
The existing pond next to the residence site was constructed in 1991. A
soil-bentonite liner was installed in 1992 after excessive seepage was experienced
through the winter. We have been provided observation testing reports by
Chen-Northem for the embankment and pond liner construction. Two feet of on -site
silt and clay with at least one foot of 5 % to 6 % bentonite treated soil liner was
installed.
SITE CONDITIONS
The property consists of hilly and rolling terrain with a general slope down the
south-southwest toward West Lake Creek. The topography of the property is indicated
by the contour lines on Fig. 1. Vegetation consists of aspen and evergreen stands with
grass, weeds and sage brush in open areas. Occasional boulders between about 6 to 10
feet in size were observed on the ground surface. Snow was patchy and up to about 2
1/2 feet deep at the time of our field exploration work. Numerous springs and seeps
were observed in the guest cottages area. The pond embankment is about 10 feet high
in the proposed residence area. The existing pond is located just north of the proposed
residence. Willows are located in the natural draw below the pond.
FIELD EXPLORATION
The field exploration for the project was conducted on April 20 and 21, 1994.
Fourteen exploratory borings were drilled at the locations shown on Fig. 1 to evaluate
H-P GEOTECH
c
-3-
the subsurface conditions. The borings were advanced with 4-inch diameter continuous
flight augers powered by a track -mounted CME-45 drill rig.. A profile pit for septic
disposal was dug on May 26, 1994 with a backhoe. The borings and pit were logged
by a representative of Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. Percolation testing was
conducted at 4 locations for infiltration septic disposal systems at the different building
sites.
Samples of the subsoils were taken with 1 3/8-inch and 2-inch I.D. spoon
samplers. The samplers were driven into the subsoils at various depths with blows
from a 140-pound hammer falling 30 inches. This test is similar to the standard
penetration test described by ASTM Method D-1586. The penetration resistance values
are an indication of the relative density or consistency of the subsoils. Depths at which
the samples were taken and the penetration resistance values are shown on the Logs of
Exploratory Borings, Figs. 2 and 3. The samples were returned to our laboratory for
review by the project engineer and testing.
SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
Graphic logs of the subsurface conditions encountered at the site are shown on
Figs. 2 and 3. The subsoils consist of between 1 and 3 feet of topsoil overlying
medium dense to dense, silty to clayey sands and gravels containing cobbles and
scattered boulders. Drilling in the dense gravel with auger equipment was difficult due
to the cobbles and boulders and occasional drilling refusal was encountered in the
deposits. The subsoils are mainly stratified, silty gravelly sands in the residence area.
About 6 feet of compacted embankment fill was encountered at Boring 9. Stiff clay was
encountered at 25 feet below the natural sands in Boring 7. The soils have typically
low to non -plastic fines.
Laboratory testing performed on samples obtained from the borings included
natural moisture content, density., gradation analyses, and liquid and plastic limits.
H-P GEOTECH
Results of consolidation testing performed on a relatively undisturbed drive sample of
silty sand, presented on Fig. 5, indicate low to moderate compressibility under
conditions of loading and wetting. Results of gradation analyses performed on small
diameter drive samples (minus 1 1/2-inch fraction) of the natural granular subsoils are
shown on Figs. 6-9. The laboratory testing is summarized in Table I.
Free water was encountered in most of the borings drilled in the guest cottages
area between about 3 to 5 feet and at 16 feet at the residence. No free water was
encountered at the studio site.
FOUNDATION BEARING CONDITIONS
The subsoils encountered at shallow depth consist mainly of granular soils
suitable for lightly to moderately loaded spread footings. The soils encountered in the
guest facility area and studio site contain considerable gravel to boulder size material
and are medium dense to dense. The soils encountered in the residence are very sandy
with scattered cobbles and are medium dense. Cuts made for below grade building
construction in the guest cottages and residence could require excavation dewatering
and installation of subsurface drainage to permanently lower the groundwater level..
The pond should be lined both below the new water surface area and against the
building foundation. The lining should not allow flow to beneath the residence which
could result in foundation movement. A synthetic liner will probably be required.
DESIGN RECOXMIENDATIONS
FOUNDATIONS
Considering the subsoil conditions encountered in the exploratory borings and
the nature of the proposed construction, we recommend the buildings be founded with
spread footings bearing on the natural granular soils.
H-P GEOTECH
-5-
The design and construction criteria presented below should be observed for a
spread footing foundation system.
1) Footings placed on the undisturbed natural granular soils should be designed for
an allowable bearing pressure of 3,000 psf for the guest facility and studio
buildings and 2,000 psf for the residence building. Based on experience, we
expect settlement of footings designed and constructed as discussed in this
section will be about 1 inch or less. Seepage from the pond could cause some
additional differential settlement of the residence.
2) The footings should have a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous walls
and 2 feet for isolated pads.
3) Exterior footings and footings beneath unheated areas should be provided with
adequate soil cover above their bearing elevation for frost protection. Placement
of foundations at least 48 inches below exterior grade is typically used in this
area.
4) Continuous foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span local
anomalies such as by assuming an unsupported length of at least 10 feet.
Foundation walls acting as retaining structures should also be designed to resist
lateral earth pressures as discussed in the "Foundation and Retaining Walls"
section of this report.
5) The topsoil and any loose or disturbed soils should be removed and the footing
bearing level extended down to relatively dense natural granular soils. Voids
created by boulder removal should be backfilled with on -site granular soil_
compacted to at least 100 % of standard Proctor density or with concrete. If
water seepage is encountered, the footing areas should be dewatered before
concrete placement. In the guest area, some of the excavations may need to be
dewatered by a trench drain located uphill and separate from the building cut.
The existing embankment fill in the residence area should be evaluated for
footing support at the time of excavation.
H-P GEOTECH
c
6) A representative of the soil engineer should observe all footing excavations prior
to concrete placement to evaluate bearing conditions.
FOUNDATION AND RETAINING WALLS
Foundation walls and retaining structures which are laterally supported and can
be expected to undergo only a slight amount of deflection should be designed for a
lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of 45 pcf
for backfill consisting of the on -site granular soils. Self supported cantilevered
retaining structures which are separate from the building foundations and can be
expected to deflect sufficiently to mobilize the full active earth pressure condition
should be designed for a lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent
fluid unit weight of 35 pcf for backfill consisting of the on -site granular soils. Topsoil,
clay soils and oversized rock should not be used as backfill material.
All foundation and retaining structures should be designed for appropriate
hydrostatic and surcharge pressures such as adjacent footings, traffic, construction
materials and equipment. The pressures recommended above assume drained conditions
behind the walls and a horizontal backfill surface. The buildup of water behind a wall
or an upward sloping backfill surface will increase the lateral pressure imposed on a
foundation wall or retaining structure. An underdrain should be provided to prevent
hydrostatic pressure buildup behind walls.
Backfill should be placed in uniform lifts and compacted to at least 90 % of the
maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum. Backfill in
pavement and walkway areas should be compacted to at least 95 % of the maximum
standard Proctor density. Care should be taken not to overcompact the backfill or use
large equipment near the wall since this could cause excessive lateral pressure. on the
wall. Some settlement of deep foundation wall backfill should be expected even if the
material is placed correctly and could result in distress to facilities constructed on the
backfill.
H-P GEOTECH
r
-7-
We recommend relatively free draining granular soils for backfilling foundation
walls and retaining structures because their use results in lower lateral earth pressures
and the backfill can be incorporated into the underdrain system. Subsurface drainage
recommendations are discussed in more detail in the "Underdrain System" section of
this report. Granular wall backfill should contain less than 25 % passing the No. 200
sieve and have a maximum size of 6 inches.
The lateral resistance of foundation or retaining wall footings will be a
combination of the sliding resistance of the footing on the foundation materials and
passive earth pressure against the side of the footing. Resistance to sliding at the
bottoms of the footings can be calculated based on a coefficient of friction of 0.5 in the
guest facilities and studio areas and 0.4 in the residence area. Passive pressure against
the sides of the footings can be calculated using an equivalent fluid unit weight of 350
pcf for a dry backfll condition and 200 pcf for a submerged condition. The coefficient
of friction and passive pressure values recommended above assume ultimate soil
strength. Suitable factors of safety should be included in the design to limit the strain
which will occur at the ultimate strength, particularly in the case of passive resistance.
Fill placed against the sides of the footings to resist lateral loads should be a granular
material compacted to at least 95 % of the maximum standard Proctor density at a
moisture content near optimum.
FLOOR SLABS
The natural on -site soils, exclusive of topsoil, are suitable to support lightly
loaded slab -on -grade construction. To reduce the effects of some differential
movement, floor slabs should be separated from all bearing walls and columns with
expansion joints which allow unrestrained vertical movement. Floor slab control joints
should be used to reduce damage due to shrinkage cracking. The requirements for joint
spacing and slab reinforcement should be established by the designer based on
experience and the intended slab use. A minimum 4-inch layer of free -draining gravel
H-P GEOTECH
should be placed beneath basement level slabs to facilitate drainage. This material
should consist of minus 2-inch aggregate with at least 50 % retained on the No. 4 sieve
and less than 2 % passing the No. 200 sieve.
All fill materials for support of floor slabs should be compacted to at least 95 %
of maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum. Required
fill can consist of the on -site sands and gravels devoid of vegetation, topsoil and
oversized rock.
UNDERDRAIN SYSTEM
Free water was encountered at shallow depth in the guest facilities area and
could be encountered in the residence area below the pond. It has been our experience
in mountainous areas that the groundwater level can rise and local perched groundwater
can develop during times of heavy precipitation or seasonal runoff. Frozen ground
during spring runoff can create a perched condition. We recommend below grade
construction, such as retaining walls, crawl space and basement areas, be protected
from wetting and hydrostatic pressure buildup by an underdrain system. The system
should be overbuilt in the existing shallow groundwater areas of the guest buildings to
help reduce the risk of future groundwater impact on below grade areas.
The drains should consist of drainpipe placed in the bottom of the wall backfill
surrounded above the invert level with free -draining granular material. The drain
should be placed at each level of excavation and at least 1 foot below lowest adjacent
finish grade and sloped at a minimum 1 % to a suitable gravity outlet. Deeper pipe
invert and additional interior lateral drains could be needed in shallow water areas.
Free -draining granular material used in the underdrain system should contain less than
2% passing the No. 200 sieve, less than 50% passing the No. 4 sieve and have a
maximum size of 2 inches. The drain gravel backfill should be at least 2 feet deep.
The drain gravel should be extended up the excavation face to intercept any
embankment seepage.
H-I' UEOTECH
M
SITE GRADING
Deep excavations made on steep slopes or to below the groundwater level will
increase the risk of construction induced slope instability at the.site. The risk appears
low for dry cuts made for basement or below grade areas up to about one level, 10 to
12 feet deep. In shallow groundwater areas, pre -excavation dewatering could be
needed. Fills should be limited to about 8 to 10 feet deep, especially on steep slopes
downhill of the buildings. Embankment fills should be compacted to at least 95 % of
the maximum standard Proctor density near optimum moisture content. Prior to fill
placement, the subgrade should be carefully prepared by removing all vegetation and
topsoil and compacting to 95 % standard Proctor density. The fill should be benched
into the portions of the hillside exceeding 20 % grade.
Permanent unretained cut and fill slopes should be graded at 2 horizontal to
1 vertical or flatter and protected against erosion by revegetation or other means. The
risk of slope instability will be increased if seepage is encountered in cuts and flatter
slopes may be necessary. If seepage is encountered in permanent cuts, an investigation
should be conducted to determine if the seepage will adversely affect the cut stability.
This office should review site grading and drainage plans for the project prior to
construction.
SURFACE DRAINAGE
The following drainage precautions should be observed during construction and
maintained at all times after the buildings have been completed:
1) Inundation of the foundation excavations and underslab areas should be avoided
during construction.
2) Exterior baclfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisture and compacted to
at least 95 % of the maximum standard Proctor density in pavement and slab
areas and to at least 90 % of the maximum standard Proctor density in landscape
areas.
H-P GEOTECH
-10-
3) The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the buildings should be sloped to
drain away from the foundation in all directions. We. recommend a minimum
slope of 12 inches in the first 10 feet in unpaved areas and a minimum slope of
3 inches in the first 10 feet in paved areas. Free -draining wall backfill should be
capped with about 2 feet of the on -site finer graded soils to reduce surface water
infiltration.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all
backfill.
PERCOLATION TESTING
Profile holes were drilled or dug at 5 locations and percolation testing conducted
to evaluate the feasibility of infiltration septic disposal systems. The profile hole logs
are shown on Figs. 2 and 3 and the percolation testing results are presented in Table II.
Four of the areas tested appear suitable for an infiltration septic disposal system. The
variable test results are due to the variable subsoils encountered. An average
percolation rate of 30 minutes per inch should be adequate for conventional leach field
design. The area of Boring 4A had groundwater at about 3 feet deep and does not
appear feasible for infiltration disposal. Other areas may have groundwater and the
systems should be kept as shallow as possible. All of the systems should be designed
by a civil engineer.
LIMITATIONS
This report has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
geotechnical engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no
other warranty either expressed or implied. The conclusions and recommendations
submitted in this report are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory borings
and pit located as indicated on Fig. 1, the proposed type of construction and our
H-P GEOTECH
-11-
experience in the area. Our findings include interpolation and extrapolation of the
subsurface conditions identified at the exploratory borings and pit and variations in the
subsurface conditions may not become evident until excavation is performed. If
conditions encountered during construction appear different from those described in this
report, we should be notified so that re-evaluation of the recommendations may be
made.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for design
purposes. We are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our
information. As the project evolves, we should provide continued consultation and field
services during construction to review and monitor the implementation of our
recommendations, and to verify that the recommendations have been appropriately
interpreted. Significant design changes may require additional analysis or modifications
to the recommendations presented herein. We recommend on -site observation of
excavations and foundation bearing strata and testing of structural fill by a
representative of the soil engineer.

REc Septic System at Knapp Property, Lake Creek:,
Dear Mr. Meng:
The septic systems at the main house site. and the cabins have, been constructed predominantly to plans
as prepared by Alpine Engineering, Inc.
At the main house the 1250 gallon tank was replaced with two 1000 gallon tanks in series and
relocated to a more central position off the house; per attached: plan.
The systems at the cabin site were revised and built per a revised application submitted on August 3,
1994.
Soils conditions at each site conformed throughout with what the soils profiles anticipated.
As -built plans for each area are included. These plans are to scale and locations are based upon
measurements made in the field by us and by the contractor.
Please do not hesitate to call if you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
/ v

(Revised September 21, 1994)

INTRODUCTION
The Knapp Property is located at the upper reach of West Lake Creek, covering what was
once the Tenderwild Subdivision. The terrain of the site varies from steep and gentle slopes
to meadow. A four bedroom house is too be built on the property along with a septic system
and absorption field to service the residence. Horizontal setbacks to previously proposed
septic systems as well as wetlands and water bodies on the property will need to be
considered.
FLOW QUANTITY
4 bedroom house x 2 persons/bedroom = 8 persons
Peak Flow = 8 persons x 75 gpd/person = 600 gpd
Peak Flow x 150% = 900 gpd
Provide one seperate, specific septic system for the 4 bedroom house.
SEPTIC TANK SIZE
900 gpd x 30/24 = 1125 gallons
Use one 1250 gallon septic tank.
SOIL PROFILE HOLE
A soil profile hole has been dug at the side of the proposed absorption field. Soils reports
are attached, which provide soil profile information, as well as percolation test results. The
absorption trenches are proposed to be moved approximately 70 feet from the previous
(June 1994) plans.
PERCOLATION TEST, SOIL PROFILE HOLE
Percolation tests and the soil profile review were completed by Hepworth-Pawlack
Geotechnical, Inc. See Soil Profile of Boring 10.
Percolation Test Hole P-1 Average = 30 minutes per inch
Percolation Test Hole P-2 Average = 30 minutes per inch
Percolation Test Hole P-3 Average = 30 minutes per inch
Use 30 minutes per inch
ABSORPTION AREA
The average percolation rate was determined to be 30 min/in in the proposed area of the
absorption trenches.
Absorption area = (Q/5) -VT = (900/5) V30 = 986 square feet
50% reduction for infiltrator units = .5(986) = 493 square feet
Check application rate.
The proposed application rate is 900 gpd/493sf = 1.8 gpd/sf
which does not include the reduction for using infiltrators.
Use 493 square feet
493 sf/(3 feet wide) = 164 if 2 = 82 if per trench, two trenches.
Use two trenches 100 feet lon at 16 units -De r trench.
Check application rate.
A = 200 if x 3 = 600 feet
Application rate = 900 gpd/600 feee = 1.5 gpd/sf
Setbacks
Peak flow = 900 gpd, which is less than 1000 gpd so that the standard setbacks
are appropriate.
The septic system, (including the septic tank and absorption trenches) are located far
enough away from the other septic systems at the site so that horizontal setbacks from
one system do not overlap other septic system horizontal setbacks. Setbacks to
springs, wells, creeks, and dry gulches, are MP-4,

GENERAL MOTES
1. Contact Alpine Engineering, Inc. at least 48 hours prior to installing any septic system improvement.
2. Compact sewer trenches to 90% standard proctor density, or per soils engineer's recommendations.
3. Compact to 95% standard proctor density, below distribution boxes, etc., or per soils engineer's
recommendations.
4. Provide risers on septic tanks to finish grade.
5. Comply with all Eagle County and Colorado Department of Health regulations regrading septic system
installation.
6. Provide inspection portals per Eagle County regulations.
7. Provide minimum 5' horizontal distance between trees and sewer lines and septic tanks.
8. Feld align sewer to avoid existing trees, buildings, and structures.
9. Provide 3' minimum cover and 2% minimum slope and 10% maximum slope from building to septic
Link.
10. Provide cleanouts at bends.
11. Sewer line to be schedule 40 PVC.
12. Provide 6' minimum between trenchwalls.
13. Provide 5' minimum clear horizontal between trees and sewer pipes and septic tank.
14. Install infiltrator system per manufacturer's recommendations and Eagle County Health Department
requirements.
15. Do not begin any sewer construction prior to notification of Alpine Engineering, Inc., Glenn Palmer 926-
3373. The septic system is also to be inspected by Alpine Engineering, Inc. prior to back fill: contact
Alpine Engineering, Inc. for this purpose as well.
16. The splitter tee must have equal invert out elevations) on all pipes leaving the tee.
17. We recommend that the disposal field be seeded after installation of the subsurface disposal system. A
good native grass cover will promote evapotranspiration from the field. We recommend using a see mix
such as a Foothills, Pasture, or Prairie mix, available at local feed and seed stores. These mixes do not
require irrigation and develop a growth 10 to 15 inches high. No automatic sprinkler system should be
installed above the disposal field.
18. The owner must realize an onsite sewage disposal system is considerably different from public sewer
services. The Owner must be aware of and assume the responsibility for continued maintenance of the
system. We recommend the pumping of the septic tanks at the end of the first year of use to monitor
sludge accumulation and at a minimum of every two years afterward. There are also daily
considerations, such as not putting plastic or other nonbiodegradable material down the sewage disposal
system. Also, water use must be carefully monitored so toilets are not allowed to run when seals
malfunction. To illustrate the point, it should be noted a running toilet will consume in excess of 1000
gallons per day if allowed to run. Excessive loading (such as running toilets) will flood and irrevocably
harm the system, and stress the onsite well.
19. Provide minimum 10' separation between water and sewer lines, or encase per Colorado Department of
Health Regulations.
20. Provide two ties to sewer cleanouts, septic tank, and absorption trench comers, as required by Eag!e
County for as-builts.
21. Septic system approval is conditional upon receipt of as -built information.

Job No. 194 217
Subject: Observation of Excavation and Percolation Test, Proposed Knapp
Residence, Lake Creek, Eagle County, Colorado.
Gentlemen:
As requested, a representative of Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. observed the
excavations for the residence on August 10 and 31 and performed percolation testing on
August 31, 1994 for foundation support and leach field design at the subject site. The
findings of our work and recommendations for the foundation design are presented in
this report. We previously conducted a subsoil study for design of foundations at the
site and presented our findings in a report dated May 31, 1994, Job No. 194 217.
The proposed residence will consist of a two story log home over a full basement area
and an attached slab -on -grade garage. A conventional spread footing imposing a
maximum bearing pressure of 2,000 psf has been used for design.
At the time of our initial visit to the site, three backhoe pits had been dug to
approximate design footing bearing level. When observed on August 31, the building
excavation had been cut in three levels from 3 to 15 feet below the adjacent ground
surface. The soils exposed in the bottom of the excavation consisted of slightly silty to
silty sand with gravel. The results of a gradation analyses performed on samples of
sand (minus 1 1/2-inch fraction) obtained from the excavation are presented on Fig. 1
and Table I. No free water was encountered in the excavations and the soils were
moist.
The soil conditions exposed in the excavation are consistent with those previously
encountered on the site and suitable for support of spread footings designed for the
recommended allowable bearing pressure of 2000 psf. Loose and disturbed soils should
be removed in the footing areas to expose the undisturbed natural soils. Other
recommendations presented in our previous report which are applicable should also be
observed.
A profile pit and three percolation test holes were excavated, and the percolation holes
soaked by Shaeffer Construction prior to our site visit. The percolation test holes were
located approximately 100 feet south of the residence site. The subsoils encountered in
the profile pit, below 3 feet of topsoil, consisted of two feet of sandy clay over silty
sand to the maximum depth explored of 8 feet. The percolation tests were conducted in
Bud and Betsy Knapp
September 12, 1994
Page 2
the silty sand soils and the test results are summarized on Table II. No free water was
observed in the profile pit. Based on findings the tested area is suitable for an
infiltration septic disposal system.
The recommendations submitted in this letter are based on our observation of the soils
exposed within the foundation excavation and the previous subsurface exploration at the
site. Variations in the subsurface conditions below the excavation could increase the
risk of foundation movement. We should be advised of any variations encountered in
the excavation conditions for possible changes to recommendations contained in this
letter.
If there are any questions or if we may be of further assistance, please let us know.
Sincerely,
HEPWORTH - PAWLAK GEOTECHNICAL, INC.

Dear Mr. Merry: .
We have received plans from- Schaeffer Construction, and have been authorized to begin the design of
the septic system for the proposed caretaker unit: The caretaker building is to be a 3 bedroom house
with water saving fixtum. .
We would like to wait until sufficient snowmelts at the site to obiain percolation tests. We have done
othersystems nearby and feel that percolation rates, soil profile conditions, etc. will be suitable for a
septic system. The. design will be completed as soon as we can get pemlation tests.

SEPTIC SYSTEM APPLICATION
INTRODUCTION
The Knapp Caretaker Residence is a single family homesite located in the W1/2 SWl/4 SW
1/4, Section 29, T5S, R82W, 6th P.M., in the Lake Creek drainage near Edwards, Eagle
County, Colorado. The property is not served by Upper Eagle ' Valley Consolidated Sanitation
District; an individual sewage disposal system is proposed.
PROPOSED USE
A three (3) bedroom residential single family dwelling is proposed to be constructed on the
property.
QUANTITY OF SEWAGE
(3 Bedrooms)(2 persons/bedroom)(75 gpd)(1.5 peaking factor) = 675 gpd
SEPTIC TANK SIZE
675 gpd x 30 hrs/day = 845 gallons
24 hrs/day
Round to 1,000 gallon capacity septic tank.
SOILS INVESTIGATION
A soil profile pit and percolation tests were conducted in the proposed leach field area on
June 29, 1995. The profile pit was dug by backhoe to a depth of 8.0 feet and encountered
one foot of top soil followed by a sandy silt with some cobbles. Neither groundwater nor
evidence of a seasonal high water table was encountered in the profile pit.
Three percolation holes were dug to a depth of two to two -and -a -half feet, encountering
approximately one foot of top soil followed by a sandy silt with some cobbles. The results of
the tests are presented in the attached table. The average percolation rate of the three holes is
9 minutes per inch. All three tests indicated sufficient percolation rates.
