Project No. 21-3574
Dear Travis,
On February 22 and 25, 2022, we visited your property on a Parcel of Land in Section 31,
T3S R86W, 6th PM, 4730 Sweetwater Road, Eagle County, Colorado. The purpose of our site
visits was to select an area on your property for the proposed new Soil Treatment Area for a
major repair/replacement of the existing septic system. During the first site visit, the
excavator/installer Travor Dunsdon, with Alpha Excavation, dug two profile holes. During the
second site visit, the excavator/installer Logan Satterfield with Logan, Inc., dug a third profile
hole. Also, during the second site visit, Logan told us that the old system was on the east side of
the existing cabin and consisted of a 4x6 container covered with a piece of plywood.
The OWTS is for a proposed 4-bedroom residence, and it will consist of a 1500-gallons,
three-compartments concrete septic tank by Valley Precast with an effluent filter, and an Orenco
Pump assembly, and the Soil Treatment Area will consist of 68 Quick 4 Plus, Standard Infiltrator
Chambers in a bed configuration with a 2-foot sand filter and pressure dosing. The septic tank
might be within the area where future driveway or parking might be crossing, and must be built
accordingly for traffic loading.
The as-built survey by Matt Slagle, PLS CFedS, Slagle Survey Services, was used as a
basis for the septic system design. Directions to the site from the Dotsero are as follows: take
Exit 133 on I-70 northwest on Colorado River Road for about 6.9 miles to Sweetwater Road, left
on Sweetwater Road, continue for 4.6 miles to 4730 Sweetwater Road. The property is on the
left side of the road.

Project No. 21-3574– OWTS-024162-2022
Dear Travis:
At the request of your installer, Logan Satterfield, Logan Inc., and at your request, on
September 14 and 20, 2022, we visited your property on a Parcel of Land in Section 31, T3S R86W,
6th PM, 4730 Sweetwater Road, Eagle County, Colorado. The purpose of our site visits was to
inspect the installation of the septic system.
The system was installed in overall compliance with the septic system design, Drawing No.
21-3574OWTS.dwg, dated March 1, 2022. At the time of the inspection, we observed the following:
They installed 1500-gallons, three compartments, concrete septic tank with H-20 Loading,
and with an Orenco PF500511 high-head pump assembly, by Valley Precast, Inc. In the second
access port of the septic tank, an effluent filter was installed with the handle extended close to the top
of the riser. The septic tank had concrete risers and metal frames and covers. The risers were of
variable heights, with the inlet compartment having 26-inch riser, the middle compartment 29-inch
riser, and the pump compartment having 31-inch riser. The control panel was installed on the east
side of the cabin, north of the electric meter.
The building sewer line was about 14 feet long, 4-inch diameter, sch40 pvc with a cleanout at
3 feet from the building, as shown on the attached, as-built sketch.
The effluent line from the pump chamber to end manifold of the soil treatment area, was about
19-feet long, 1.5-inch diameter, sch40 pvc pipe. The end manifold was about 8.5-feet long, 1.5-inch
sch40 pvc. The soil treatment area consisted of infiltrator chambers arranged in a bed configuration
with four rows of 17 Quick Four Plus Standard Infiltrator Chambers in each. Two feet of the onsite
soil were overexcavated from the bottom of the STA and replaced with two feet of secondary sand
media (the sand spec is attached to this report). Pressure dosing system consisting of 68-ft, 1.25-inch
sch40 laterals perforated at the top with 1/8-inch holes at 4-ft intervals, suspended from the side of
each row of infiltrator chambers. The ends of the laterals were equipped with flushing assemblies. A
squirt test was performed during the inspection, and it was satisfactory. Claire from the ECEH
Department was present during the inspection and the squirt test. All inspection ports were installed

RE: Floodplain analysis for 4730 Sweetwater Creek Road, Eagle County (Gypsum
address), Colorado
Dear Nicole,
Thank you and Julie’s assistance in directing us to the previous information for the above
parcel. As you know, this parcel has a new owner who is looking to develop the existing
cabin area for a single-family home. The site is approximately 4.5 miles up Sweetwater
Creek Road, on the south side of the road. The parcel has the creek bisecting it draining
generally west to east. Currently, there are two small “hunting” cabins on the roadside of
the creek, and a larger, permanent cabin on the far side of the creek. The only access is
a rather rickety footbridge near the east end of the property. It is not known exactly when
these structures were built. Title information indicates this property was active in the
1950-1960’s. Mere observance of the construction of the main cabin indicate this
structure can well be several decades old, correlating with that mid-20th century
timeframe.
In general, to appropriately use the cabin and the buildable space for the parcel the
applicant must cross the creek with a suitable bridge for even emergency vehicles and is
willing to do so. The general progress of their application will be associated with a more
full site review, but some of those elements, such as geotechnical assessment or septic
system design and construction, warrant a sufficient bridge just to get across and make
appropriate design analysis for the rest of the site. This bridge, along with the desired
site development plans, prompt our submittal of this report and associated calculations
for your review and approval as an early step in the overall site review process.
The applicant understands the need for a vehicular access across the creek, sufficient for
fire / emergency use. They also desire to maximize buildable space with this analysis on
the far side of the creek, targeting the minimum setback allowed from normal high water.
Our modeling was to affirm existing conditions, model a proposed bridge to see 1)
proposed bridge impacts and; 2) site work alteration limitations.

GLENWOOD SPRINGS 118 West Sixth St, Suite 200 | Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 | 970.945.1004
Previous Information
As part of some previous work completed in the spring of 2020, an initial study from LKP
Engineering was completed and submitted to your office and, while not recorded as this
is an unmapped area, your review seemed to indicate general acceptance to the existing
conditions flood model. As noted in that LKP report, this area is Zone D (December 2007
effective date), or “undetermined” flood zone, hence that initial study from LKP was
completed for an initial analysis. We affirm this current status.
The initial model utilized the USGS Streamstats to develop the hydrology for the creek.
The LKP report indicated a calculated flow of 1920 CFS for the 100-year flood. To
reproduce this, we likewise utilized Streamstats and were able to reasonably replicate
using the USGS online server. Upon study of the Streamstats and LKP data, we
recognized that neither take into account the legitimate attenuation Sweetwater Lake
would provide in the overall basin. Approximately 60% of the basin to the point of 4730
passes through Sweetwater Lake which would greatly slow and “flatten” the storm peak.
This report is to represent our approach to accurately model that reality.
Further, we assert that the topography from the timeframe of the LKP study was not
sufficient for accurate modeling of the creek, stopping topography at the east property
line, just 30 or so feet downstream of the proposed bridge location. We have
subsequently acquired additional survey data from Slagle (same survey as the April
study) an additional 250 feet down stream to better understand those tailing flows and
provide ample modeling space to assure downstream impacts on the neighboring
property. This, too, has provided additional confirmation we desired.
As with the LKP data, we utilize AutoCAD 2020 Civil 3D for the digital files and Hec-RAS
5.0.7. We acquired the Streamstats data and input those basin parameters into
HydroCAD, a TR-20 based software with NOAA hydrology to determine the impacts of
the lake. Cross sections at the parcel were taken from the afore-mentioned topography
with an attempt to be in close proximity to the previous model, with added sections for the
bridge and the additional topography downstream. For Sweetwater Lake itself,
topography was acquired from the USGS 1-meter data and converted to 2-foot contour
mapping for evaluation of Sweetwater storage volumes and key elevations (see Exhibit
A) such as the lowpoint of the “would be” spillway of Sweetwater, which is the road
crossing the outlet culvert.
Hydrology Re-Calc
As noted, the Streamstats hydrology, while we generally agree with the calculation
procedure, does not take into account Sweetwater Lake itself. Sweetwater is a lake of
approximately 70+ surface acres at normal pool elevation of approximately 7700 feet MSL
(NAVD 88) with a natural channel and large, 137” x 91” CMP outlet pipe. There are no
gates or weirs, neither is there a constructed spillway. It would seem, and the modeling
suggests, that the outlet structure being so large is designed to allow large flows through
and attenuate the lake without use of a spillway.
While Sweetwater is not jurisdictional, the State Engineer’s Office does have it listed as
Dam ID 530130 with dam parameters such as an outfall pipe (mis-identified as a 96”
RCP) and a spillway (likely just referencing the natural berm of the downstream side of
the lake). The CMP outlet pipe has free discharge as the flowline is a few feet above the
downstream creek elevation. The spillway, essentially the access road, is at least 12 feet
above the flowline out of the outlet pipe. As you will see in our analysis, that spillway is
not reached in the design storm volumes.
We processed the Streamstats basins as before in the following general manner. We
calculated the overall basin to the 4730 parcel, then calculated the basin to the
Sweetwater Lake outlet location. After this, and noting the surface types provided by SS,
we then subtracted out the remaining basin below the lake to the 4730 address for input
as the West Sheep Creek Basin. Then, with that basin delineated, we assessed another
Streamstats for the longest time of concentration path, which would appear to be the West
Sheep Creek Branch. That branch enters the main Sweetwater Creek approximately
3000 feet above the 4730 site.
This then gives us reasonable assurance of “apples and apples” in basin analyses,
adhering to the Streamstats data and applying this in the Hydrocad, TR-20 based
software with NOAA hydrographs as the NOAA hydrologic data tends to be more accurate
with real storm input (http://hdsc.nws.noaa.gov/hdsc/pdfs/). Therefore, we have utilized
established Tc’s, surface types, field checked the outlet scenario for the lake, and
provided a reasonable estimation of lake volumes for the attenuation impact using USGS
data.
The resultant is that the impact of the lake significantly reduces the 100-year flood flow
through the site. The 100-year base 1920 cfs from Streamstats without Sweetwater is
reduced to 810 cfs with the lake. As noted in the output, this is a 79% attenuation with a
670 minute-plus lag time. The peak storage elevation is 5.75 feet above normal outflow,
a good seven feet below the road/spillway. Appendix A are the various Streamstats
Output files. Appendix B is the HydroCAD Tr-20 output.
Updated (SGM) Model
That additional topography acquired includes the stream channel and the neighboring
small pond with associated pond dike on the road (north) side of the creek. The south
side is native steep slopes. Our goal is for no minimal downstream impact or making
necessary improvements on the neighboring property to protect their structures. This
includes both existing and proposed flood conditions downstream, along with a comfort
level for stream velocities and continued dike protection.
Using the above hydrologic data, we assembled the RAS model with similar Manning’s
of 0.05 for a cobbly channel and 0.07 for flood fringe areas with light trees and brush.
The reduced flow with Sweetwater Lake keep the floodplain within the main channel
banks. From this, we do not need to do a floodway analysis as our impacts do not impact
the floodplain in the first place.
Just downstream of the proposed bridge site the channel curves to the right with a dike
on the downstream left bank. That dike protects the neighboring pond and keeps the flow
channelized. To better reflect this, we established ineffective flow areas on these lower
cross sections for that pond area that, even if it had water, would not carry flow at any
significant velocity.
The resultant is that downstream impacts are negated. Our installation of the bridge does
not impact the main channel, Cross section 4+55.77 (interpolated) is deleted and replaced
by the bridge crossing, which re-interpolates the immediate upstream and downstream
cross sections through. With this amendment, there is no rise downstream. Cross section
4+25 (interpolated and very near the property corner) indicates matching existing
conditions and that continues as flows pass down the creek.
Appendix C is the existing conditions RAS model, and Appendix D, the proposed
conditions. We have highlighted the impacted cross sections on the existing and
proposed RAS table output.
Proposed Bridge
The applicant is providing for a clear span bridge of approximately 40 feet (noted on the
flood map, Exhibit C), with concrete abutments. It is anticipated that much of the
abutment work, with the span being so long, affords us the ability to keep much of the
impact outside the main channel with only minor rip-rap and minimize disturbance in the
creek channel. The main channel will be largely untouched as we span, bank to bank.
To establish the girder elevation we assess the typical debris flow to establish a freeboard
using the common CDOT Drainage Design Manual equation noted below:
Freeboard (ft) = 0.1 (Q^0.3) + 0.008 (V)^2.
With Q set at 810 cfs, and the model indicating a velocity at the bridge of 7.58 fps, we get
resultant freeboard of 1.21 feet. This then is added to the WSEL approximately 50 feet
upstream. That elevation, at approximately Station 5+05 calculates at 6815.85 + 1.21
feet = 6817.06. Therefore we set the bottom of girder at 6817.1. The WSEL at the
upstream bridge section for the proposed condition model is 6814.99 (see actual XS,
interpolated from table). Therefore we have 17.1 – 14.99 = 2.11 feet of clearance from
the 100-year WSEL to the bottom of girder satisfying the Eagle County and CWCB
requirement for a minimum 2 feet of freeboard.
Floodway / Site Condition
With the indicated flows and model results, a floodway analysis isn’t needed as the current
anticipated impacts do not warrant an encroachment onto the floodplain width. However,
if such an exercise is needed, we have the 18” clear space for the bridge to allow for
some level of WSEL rise should an encroachment be conducted.
General commentary on the RAS model warnings
As is often the case the calculations trigger cautions. The initial model noted,
understandably so, cautions for critical flows and rapid drop in head, as may be expected
from a steeper mountain stream. The recommended solution was adding interpolated
cross sections. We did so to avoid many of these warnings, setting a maximum XS
distance of 15 feet, but noted the results were no different, although many of those
cautions went away. Therefore we did not add further cross sections as the warnings are
triggers when calculation differences between cross sections are a note of calculations
having a rapid change, but not necessarily an error or problem with the model.
Please do not hesitate to contact me for any questions.
Very Truly Yours,

Subject: Geologic Hazards Assessment
4730 Sweetwater Road
Eagle County, Colorado
Project No. 20.5027
Dear Ms. Dunn:
Cesare, Inc. (Cesare) addresses the geologic hazards for Ms. Robin Dunn (Client) for the parcel
located at 4730 Sweetwater Road in Eagle County, Colorado. Vicinity of the site is shown in Exhibit
1.
EXHIBIT 1. Vicinity of 4730 Sweetwater Road in Eagle County, Colorado.
Summary of conclusions:
1. The geologic hazards noted on the parcel are rockfall, landslides, and flooding.
2. The rockfall hazard is minimal from the outcrops that are on the property. There are no
outcrops or sources for rockfall above the property.
3. The landslide hazard is low to moderate from the steep slope on the southern edge of the
CESARE, INC.
20.5027 4730 Sweetwater Road Letter 06.12.20 2
property. Evidence of recent shallow slope movement was observed. Slope instability in
the form of slumping and creep was noted.
4. The flooding hazard is defined by Eagle County and FEMA, and portions of the property
are mapped within the flood hazard zone.
1. SCOPE
A site visit was conducted by Cesare on May 19, 2020 to assess the geologic hazards that may impact
the property and offer recommendations for additional work to reduce uncertainties in interpretation.
The parcel is about 7 acres in size and is bisected by Sweetwater Creek. The driveway, garage, and
cabin exist north of Sweetwater Creek. A pedestrian bridge crosses the creek and provides access to
the residence on the southern side of the property. The structures exist on a flat alluvial terrace on
either side of the creek. South of the residence the slope is steep, with slopes ranging from 2
horizontal to 1 vertical (2:1), to vertical in the areas where bedrock outcrops on site. This assessment
addresses geologic hazards consistent with Colorado Senate Bill 35 (1972), House Bill 1041 (1974),
and Eagle Country land use code requirements that could impact the site development.
2. SITE CONDITIONS
The property is located approximately 8 miles north from the intersection of Interstate 70 and
Colorado River Road in Dotsero, Colorado and another 4.5 miles northwest from the intersection of
Colorado River Road and Sweetwater Road. The property is located on the south side of Sweetwater
Road. The Sweetwater Creek canyon area is geologically mapped as Paleozoic sedimentary rocks,
including the Leadville Limestone, Minturn, and Belden Formations1. The southern side of the canyon
is mapped as having large Pleistocene landslides, and near the river channel the geology is mapped
as recent alluvium, terrace deposits, and debris flow deposits 1.
The property site morphology is a steep and north facing slope on the southern side, with a slope
break to nearly 200 linear feet of flat ground at the base of the slope, bisected by the creek flowing
west to east. There are two prominent rock outcroppings that form cliff faces on the property; one
directly behind the residence and one upstream on the western edge of the property. These outcrops
are Leadville Limestone bedrock.
The property and slopes above are vegetated with conifers, oaks, shrubs, and grasses. The north
facing aspect of the slope, and proximity to the creek, allows for large trees and significant vegetation
cover.
3. HAZARDS ASSESSMENT
3.1 ROCKFALL HAZARD ASSESSMENT
During the May 19, 2020 site visit, the Cesare engineering geologist inspected the current building
sites, rock outcroppings, and the slope on the southern edge of the property. Two nearly vertical
rock outcrops of Leadville Limestone exist onsite. One outcrop is directly behind (south) of the
existing residence and is about 8 to 10 feet in height. The other outcrop is about 120 feet to the west

of the home along the creek channel and is 20 to 40 feet in height (Exhibit 2). Both outcrops are
described as massive, meaning there are few fracture sets in the rock mass. The fracture sets are
widely spaced and discontinuous. The smaller outcrop behind the residence is covered in lichen and
vegetation. Evidence of weathering was noted along the fractures in the large outcrop to the west,
and fresher surfaces indicate that rocks have dislodged from the rockface. Boulders immediately
below the rockface were 2.5 to 3 feet along their long axis, and were covered with soil and vegetation.
Rocks present on the flat terrace of the site are interpreted to be transported colluvium from the
hillslope above and alluvium from the creek.
EXHIBIT 2. Rock outcrops consisting of Leadville Limestone. Left; the outcrop behind the residence.
Right; the outcrop west along the creek.
3.2 LANDSLIDE HAZARDS ASSESSMENT
The slope on the southern edge of the property is steep with slopes ranging from 2:1 to near vertical.
The slope is vegetated with large trees shrubs and grasses. There is one main swale where drainage
from above is directed, although there is no established surface stream channel in this zone. Below
the swale area on the flat topography of the terrace there is a hummocky deposit that indicates slope
material has slid from this area. Observations of the slope behind the residence and above the
property boundary were conducted. Evidence of surficial sloughing, small slumps, and creep were
noted (Exhibit 3). Active sloughing and colluvial movement were observed in the area directly behind
the residence and the root cellar. The slope behind the residence has several vertical to near vertical
arcuate scarps ranging from 2 feet to 8 feet in height. Slump block morphologies with back tilted
areas below the scarps were noted. Pistol butted trees and tilted fenceposts, evidence of downslope
movement over time, were found across the slope.

3.3 FLOODING HAZARD ASSESSMENT
The parcel is mapped as being mostly inside the 100-year floodplain for Sweetwater Creek (Exhibit
4). The flat area on the property is a result of alluvial processes, and flood deposits are noted on the
terrace surface.
EXHIBIT 4. Map of the 100-year floodplain for Sweetwater Creek at 4730 Sweetwater Road.
3.4 OBSERVATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the size and nature of the rock outcrops onsite, this parcel has a low risk of rockfall
impacting future development on the property. Rockfall from the outcrop to the west would be the
most hazardous; however, with occasional monitoring for loose blocks, hand scaling of the rockface
would be sufficient to minimize the risk to people and property. If vegetation conditions on the
rockface or above the outcrop were to change significantly, a reassessment of the rockfall hazard
would be warranted.
The slope south of the property is mapped as a large Pleistocene age landslide. The conditions that
existed to initiate this large mass movement no longer exist, and therefore, the larger landslide mass
is considered relict. the steepness of the slope and the nature of the landslide material as overburden
on the slope; however, creates conditions for shallow land slips, sloughing, creep, and smaller
rotational slide events. It is likely that these events are triggered by increased moisture in the slope
during spring snowmelt, or times of increased moisture due to intense thunderstorms or longer
duration rain events. The downslope movement of material can impact new building or development
CESARE, INC.
20.5027 4730 Sweetwater Road Letter 06.12.20 6
on the site. Slope stability measures should be assessed to protect any new development. These
measures could include:
measuring the thickness and characterizing the geological engineering properties of the
overburden on the slope;
increasing or modifying drainage in the slope to direct water away from unstable areas,
such as wick drains in the slope, or a catchment/diversion ditch above the slope; or
could also take the form of slope modifications to reduce the slope angle with a step
pattern and/or the creation of rock retaining walls.
It is recommended that any modification to the slope or additional building onsite be preceded by a
slope stability analysis and professional evaluation of possible geologic engineering structures to
increase slope stability.
Because of the parcel’s location along Sweetwater Creek and that the existing buildings were built
on the alluvial terraces, there is a flood hazard on the property. Floodplain development permits must
be acquired from Eagle County for development in a designated floodplain. Development is defined
as any construction or activity that changes the basic character, use, or topography of the land on
which the construction or activity occurs, including but not limited to, any manmade change to
improved or unimproved real estate, construction, or substantial improvement of building or other
structures, mining, dredging, filling, grading, paving, excavating, or drilling operations of dam, wall,
embankment, levee, dike, pile, abutment, projection, excavation, channel rectification, bridge,
culvert, fence, encroachment or alteration located within the area of special flood hazard.
Any work within the floodplain requires a “Floodplain Permit Application” and a checklist. This
requirement is mandated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency for Eagle County to
participate in the National Flood Insurance Program. Eagle County must comply with these
requirements for residents and businesses to obtain flood insurance
(https://www.eaglecounty.us/Engineering/Permits/).
4. CONCLUSIONS
Cesare’s engineering geologist concluded that the rockfall hazard from the outcrops onsite is minimal.
Rockfall hazard and risk can be mitigated with monitoring the rockfaces for loose material that can
be scaled by hand.
The slope on the property is actively moving by shallow creep, small rotational slides, and slope
wash/slough. These downslope movements are likely triggered by increased moisture in the slope.
It is recommended that the slope stability be assessed before new development is undertaken onsite.

Thank you, Luiza!
I am reviewing this in concurrence with the stream setback variance submitted to the EC Community Development
Department. In that application there is a geohazard and floodplain report, see attached. It shows the OWTS within the
100 year floodplain, in which case the FEMA emergency standards must be addressed as required in Reg 43. Also can
you address whether there are geohazard concerns due to slope stability?
Here are more details on what Reg 43 states and what I can gather from FEMA: If the OWTS is to be located within that
area it must be shown that there is no other more suitable location. OWTS installed in a 100-year floodplain must meet or
exceed the requirements of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, this may include addressing tank buoyancy
concerns and storage of wastewater in the event it cannot be discharged to the soil treatment area due to saturation. The
system as approved by the ECPHA must be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of floodwaters into the system
and discharge from the system into the floodwaters. The OWTS must be located to avoid impairment to floodwaters or
contamination from them during flooding. Reg 43. local emergency management concerns must also be addressed;
Eagle County requires that they participate in the National Flood Insurance Program.
Thanks, again. Let me know if you have additional questions or concerns.
