Young, PE. The system is designed to serve a four bedroom single family residence. The OWTS system consists of a 1,500 gallon Valley Precast three-compartment septic tank (2,000 gallon total capacity) with a Orenco PF3005 submersible pump enclosed in an Orenco Biotube Pump Vault, set floats to deliver approximately 100 gallons of effluent and maximum distance of 60 feet to the manifold of the mounded soil treatment area (STA). The STA consists of two rows of 20 Infiltrator Quick4 Plus Low Profile chambers set atop a minimum of 18 inches of secondary sand filter, 6 feet wide by 80 feet long. Install inspection ports as depicted, in all four corners of the distribution cell sand filter. The sand filter is to be placed over a 5,120 square foot basal area, 106 foot wide and 70 feet long, including the 3:1 slope. Be sure to rake the natural ground surface prior to placing sand filter media. Note: Gradation of the sand media use must be completed within one month prior to the installation and confirmed with the design engineer. If the sand does not conform to secondary or preferred sand media requirements, it cannot be use for the sand treatment media. Contact Eagle County Environmental Health and the design engineer well in advance of requesting inspections prior to backfilling any component of the OWTS. The design engineer is responsible for conducting all inspections necessary to certify the installation and assure functionality of the system. System certification, along with photos, gradation analysis and a record drawing is required to be submitted to, and approved by, Eagle County Environmental Health prior to the use of the system or occupancy of the dwelling.

Our observations and recommendations are presented in this report. The services are supplemental to Kumar & Associates agreement for professional services to Pinnacle Construction dated March 28, 2019. We previously designed the OWTS for the residence as submitted in our report dated August 5, 2019, Project No. 19-7-198.02. The system was designed for four bedrooms. The OWTS was installed by Shoup Land Development under Permit No. OWTS-017483-2019. We performed our as-built evaluations on October 23 and 30, 2020, May 28, 2021 and August 2, 2022. The OWTS components observed included: sewer line, cleanout, septic tank, effluent line, pump, control panel and soil treatment area (STA) and the locations of these components. The installation and locations of the system components were verified as shown on Figure 1. Pictures of the OWTS components made during the site visits are included with this report. Additional pictures were provided by the installer as noted on the photograph log. The distance locations to the septic tank shown on Figure 1 were made by taping. On October 30, 2020, a sample of the secondary sand media was obtained and the results of gradation analysis test are attached. On August 2, 2022, after power had been supplied to the pump, a pump performance test was performed with adequate pump pressure observed. It is our opinion that the OWTS was installed in general conformance with the above referenced design. The observations and recommendations presented above are based on our site observations and our experience in the area. We make no warranty either express or implied.

The purpose of this report was to provide design details for the OWTS in accordance with the 2018 Eagle County Onsite Wastewater Treatment System Regulations and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s Regulation #43. The study was performed as part of our agreement for geotechnical engineering services to Pinnacle Construction dated March 28, 2019. We previously prepared a subsoil study for foundation design of the residence and submitted our findings in a report dated May 20, 2019, Project No. 19-7-198. PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION The residence will be a four-bedroom, two-story structure over a partial walkout basement with an attached garage on the lot as shown on Figure 1. Ground floor will be partially over crawlspace and partially slab-on-grade. The proposed OWTS soil treatment area (STA) will be located to the southeast of the residence. Water service will be provided to the residence by the public water supply from Cordillera Way. If proposed construction is different than that described, we should be contacted to re-evaluate our design recommendations. SITE CONDITIONS The lot was vacant at the time of field exploration and the ground surface appeared mostly natural. The proposed residence is on a low hilltop with strongly sloping to moderately steep slopes down from the residence site. The terrain at the planned STA slopes moderately steeply down to the southeast at grades from about 20 to 25%. Vegetation consists of grass, weeds, brush with scattered juniper trees. No surface water features were observed in the near vicinity of the lot. We are not aware of any nearby water wells. - 2 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS The field exploration for the OWTS was conducted on July 23, 2019. Two profile pits (Profile Pits 1 and 2) were excavated with a medium sized trackhoe at the approximate locations shown on Figure 1 to evaluate the subsurface conditions. The pits were logged by a representative of Kumar & Associates. Logs of the profile pits are provided below. Log of Profile Pit 1 Depth USDA Classification 0-½’ TOPSOIL; Loam with organics, loose, slightly moist, brown. ½’-2’ GRAVELLY SILTY CLAY LOAM; massive structure, stiff, slightly moist, brown to reddish brown. 2’-5’ WEATHERED SILTSTONE BEDROCK; medium hard to hard, slightly moist, reddish brown. • Practical digging refusal in bedrock @ 5 feet. • Bottom of pit @ 5 feet. • No free water or redoximorphic features observed at time of excavation. Log of Profile Pit 2 Depth USDA Classification 0-1’ TOPSOIL; Loam with organics, loose, slightly moist, brown. 1’-1½’ SILTY CLAY LOAM; massive structure, stiff, slightly moist, brown. 1½’-6’ WEATHERED SILTSTONE BEDROCK; medium hard to hard, slightly moist, grayish brown. • Practical digging refusal in bedrock @ 6 feet. • Bottom of pit @ 6 feet. • No free water or redoximorphic features observed at time of excavation. The soils encountered consisted of about ½ to 1 foot of organic topsoil overlying ½ to 1½ feet of Silty Clay Loam to Gravelly Silty Clay Loam underlain by Weathered Siltstone Bedrock to the depths explored of 5 and 6 feet. Based on the subsurface conditions, the near surface soils have been classified as Soil Type 3A per State regulations, which equates to a long-term acceptance rate (LTAR) of 0.30 gallons per square foot per day at treatment level 1 (TL1). No free water was encountered in the pits at the time of excavation and no indications of seasonal high groundwater were observed in the soil profiles. - 3 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 OWTS ANALYSIS Based on the site conditions and profile pit evaluations, the site will require a mounded sand STA to provide adequate treatment of the effluent from the residence. Bedrock is present at about 1½ feet in depth and the sand filter is needed due to shallow bedrock. The sand filter will be a minimum of 18 inches thick to maintain 3 feet of soil separation to the bedrock. The system will consist of chambers in a bed configuration. The STA bed will be sized for four bedrooms (seven persons total) using an LTAR of 0.8 gallons per square foot per day for the imported “secondary sand media”. The STA basal area of the sand will be sized for Soil Type 3A and TL1 for an LTAR of 0.30 gallons per square foot per day. The sewage will gravity flow from the residence to the septic tank for primary treatment then be pressured dosed on a regular basis to the STA for dispersal and final treatment. Pressure dosing is necessary for the vertical separation to bedrock and for the mounded sand system. DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS The design recommendations presented below are based on the proposed construction, the site and subsurface conditions encountered, and our experience in the area. If conditions encountered during construction are different than those that are described in this report, please contact us to re-evaluate our design recommendations. SOIL TREATMENT AREA • The STA will be a distribution cell consisting of 2 rows of 20 Infiltrator Quick4 Plus Standard Low Profile chambers in a bed configuration installed over a minimum 18 inches thick mounded sand filter. A pressure distribution system will be used to dose the effluent to the STA at regular intervals. • The distribution cell was sized based on an LTAR of 0.80 gallons per square foot per day for secondary sand media and a linear loading rate (LLR) of 4.8 gallons per day per linear foot. The basal area of the STA was sized on an LTAR of 0.30 pre square foot per day for Soil Type 3A and TL1. - 4 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 • A 30% reduction of the STA size was applied for use of Infiltrator chambers in a bed configuration. • The minimum bed dimensions with reductions are 6 feet wide by 77 feet long (462 square feet). The bed dimensions will be 6 feet wide by 80 feet long (480 square feet). • The minimum basal width is 16 feet. The minimum basal area is 1,280 square feet. Due to the slope of the site, the basal width is estimated to be 64 feet for a total basal area of 5,120 square feet (see Figure 4). • Soil treatment area calculations are shown on Figure 3. • Vegetation should be removed and the ground surface under the STA basal area scarified prior to sand filter placement. • Sand filter material should extend one foot horizontally from the edges of the Infiltrators and then be sloped at 3 Horizontal:1 Vertical (3H:1V) maximum in all directions. • The sand filter media should meet the requirements of the current Eagle County OWTS Regulations for “secondary sand media”. ASTM C33 concrete sand is suitable. A sample of the sand should be obtained with about 1 month prior to installation for gradation analysis with the sample provided to us for testing or the test results provided to us for approval of the material. • The sand filter material shall be placed in lifts not exceeding 10 inches thick. Each lift shall be track or bucket compacted until settlement ceases. • Distribution lines, consisting of 1.5-inch diameter, Schedule 40 piping, with ⅛-inch orifice holes drilled at 4-foot centers near the center of the chambers, should be installed along the complete length of the chambers, see Figure 4. The distribution lines should be suspended approximately 2 inches from the top surface of the chambers by pipe ties. The orifice holes should face up toward the chamber surface above. • A ⅛-inch hole should be drilled on the bottom of each end of the distribution pipe to allow for complete drainage of the distribution line following pressure dosing. Install splash plates below drain holes. • The bed should be oriented along ground contours to minimize soil cover. • A minimum of 10 inches and a maximum of 24 inches of cover soil should be placed over the chambers and sand filter media. - 5 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 • Backfill should be graded to deflect surface water away from the STA and should be sloped at 3 Horizontal:1 Vertical (3H:1V) maximum in all directions. This may require a ground surface swale along the up-slope side. • Disturbed ground should be re-vegetated as soon as possible with a native grass mix. No trees, shrubs or other plants with deep roots should be planted on or near the STA as this may damage the s ystem piping. • Four-inch diameter inspection ports should be installed vertically into the knockouts of the Infiltrator endcaps at each corner of the bed. The inspection port piping should be screwed into the top to the chambers and should not extend down to the ground surface inside the chambers. The inspection ports should extend at least 8 inches above the finished ground surface or be protected in a valve box at finished grade. • A plan view of the STA is presented on Figure 3 and a cross section of the STA is presented on Figure 4. • Cleanouts must be installed at the end of each of the distribution line in the STA. A typical cleanout detail is provided on Figure 5. OWTS COMPONENTS Recommended OWTS components provided below are based on our design details and our experience with the specific component manufacturers. Equivalent components may be feasible but need to be approved by us prior to construction. Septic Tank • A Valley Precast 1,500 gallon, three-chamber septic tank (2,000 gallons total) will be used for primary treatment and dosing to the STA. The first two chambers of the tank will be utilized for treatment and settling, and the third chamber of the tank will contain the dosing pump. A detail of the tank is provided as an attachment to the report. • A submersible effluent pump enclosed in a Biotube Pump Vault will be installed in the third chamber. A copy of the septic detail is provided as an attachment to this report. • The tank must be a minimum of five feet from the residence and from the STA. The tank must be a minimum of 10 feet from any potable water supply lines. - 6 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 • The tank must be set level. The excavation bottom must be free of large rocks or other objects that could damage the tank during placement. A road base or gravel bedding material will likely be needed to prevent tank damage during placement and act as a leveling course. • The tank lids must extend to final surface grade and made to be easily located. • Install the tank with 2 feet minimum cover soil for frost protection. Maximum tank soil cover is 4 feet. Sewer Pipe • The sewer line to the septic tank should not be less than the diameter of the building drains and not less than 4 inches in diameter. • The sewer pipes should have a rating of SDR35 or stronger. • The sewer pipe should be sloped between 2% to 4% to help limit disturbance of solids in the tank and potential sewage bypass of the first chamber of the tank. If a steeper slope is needed, this can be accomplished with vertical step-downs in the sewer line. • A minimum 36 inches of cover soil should be provided over the sewer pipes. Paved areas, patios or other areas without vegetative cover may be more susceptible to frost. We recommend 48 inches of soil cover over the sewer pipe in these areas and the pipe be insulated on top and sides with 2-inch-thick blue foam insulation board. If adequate soil cover is not possible, we should be contacted for re-evaluation prior to installation. • The sewer pipe should be bedded in compacted ¾ inch road base or native soils provided that the native soils contain no angular rocks or rocks larger than 2½ inches in diameter to help prevent settlement of the pipe. Sags could cause standing effluent to freeze and damage piping. • Install cleanout pipes within 5 feet of the building foundations, where the sewer pipes bend 90 degrees or more and every 100 feet of sewer pipe. • All 90-degree bends should be installed using a 90-degree long-sweep or by using two 45-degree elbows. • The sewer line location shown on Figure 1 is considered conceptual. We assume that there will be only one sewer line exiting the residence. It is the responsibility of the - 7 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 owner/contractors to locate all sewer line exit locations and connections to the septic tank. We should be notified if there are other sewer lines exiting the residence. Effluent Transport Piping • The effluent transport piping should be 1.5-inch diameter Schedule 40 pipe sloped at a 2% minimum to drain to the STA manifold from the dose chamber. • The effluent transport pipe should be bedded in compacted ¾ inch road base or native soils provided that the native soils contain no angular rocks or rocks larger than 2½ inches in diameter to help prevent settlement of the pipe. Sags could cause standing effluent to freeze and damage piping. • A minimum 18 inches of cover soil should be provided over the effluent transport pipe. Paved areas, patios or other areas without vegetative cover may be more susceptible to frost. We recommend 48 inches of soil cover over the effluent pipe and insulation with at least 2 inches of rigid foam insulation in these areas. If adequate cover soil is not possible, we should re-evaluate soil cover prior to installation. • The effluent pipe should be double encased with larger diameter Schedule 40 PVC pipe underneath driveway surfaces and be provided with at least 48 inches of soil cover and be insulated on top and sides with 2-inch-thick foam insulation board. • All 90-degree bends should be installed using a 90 degree long-sweep or by using two 45-degree elbows. Effluent Pumping System • An Orenco PF3005, 115-volt, submersible effluent pump with a 1.25-inch diameter discharge assembly, or equivalent, will be required for effluent pumping. • The pump should be enclosed in an Orenco Biotube Pump Vault for effluent filtering and to protect the pump from vibration. • The maximum effluent transport distance from the pump discharge to the manifold is estimated to be 60 feet. • The elevation difference from pump discharge to the STA manifold is estimated to be 2 feet lower. - 8 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 • An equivalent pump must be capable of operating at 18.2 gallons per minute at 10.8 feet of total dynamic head. A pump performance curve is provided as an attachment to this report. • The floats should be set to provide a dose volume of approximately 100 gallons. To achieve the desired dose volume, the upper (“ON”) and lower (“OFF”) floats should be set approximately 10 inches apart. • The high-water alarm float should be placed approximately 3 inches above the pump “ON” float in the dose chamber. The high-water alarm must be wired on a separate electrical circuit from the pump. • The flow differential between the first and last orifices is estimated to be 1.6%. • A ⅛ inch diameter weep hole should be drilled in the effluent transport line prior to exiting the dose chamber of the septic tank so the transport line can drain after each pumping cycle. OWTS OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE The OWTS will require periodic inspection and maintenance to function properly. A properly designed, installed and maintained system can greatly increase its lifespan. The level of maintenance will vary depending on the complexity of the system and water use habits of the residents. We recommend that an OWTS Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Manual be developed. Depending on the complexity of the system a contract with an OWTS maintenance provider may be prudent. Below are some basic recommendations for the OWTS O&M. OWTS HOUSEHOLD OPERATION The OWTS will require periodic inspection and maintenance to function properly. A properl y designed, installed and maintained system can greatly increase its lifespan. The level of maintenance will vary depending on the complexity of the system and water use habits of the residents. Below are some basic recommendations for the OWTS O&M. • Use of high efficiency water fixtures is recommended to decrease the hydraulic load on the OWTS system. • Fix plumbing leaks immediately as this may cause a hydraulic overload of the STA. - 9 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 • Do not irrigate the area on top of or directly upgradient of the STA as this may cause a hydraulic overload. • Do not dispose of household waste down household drains as this may clog or damage OWTS components. Examples of household waste includes: dental floss, cotton swabs, coffee grounds, paper towels, feminine products and many other kitchen and bath items. • Use of kitchen garbage disposals is not recommended. If a garbage disposal is utilized, kitchen wastewater should be screened thoroughly. Many kitchen solids are not decomposed in the septic tank and may cause increased tank pumping frequency. • Do not dispose of household chemicals, greases, oils, paints, hot tub water or water softener backwash in household drains. A separate drywell, if feasible, may be necessary for hot tub water or water softener backwash disposal. • Limit the use of bleach as this may harm useful bacteria in the septic tank and STA. • Liquid dishwasher and clothes washer detergent is recommended for households served by an OWTS. Clay substances used as fillers in powder detergents may result in clogging of the STA. • The effluent in septic tanks can freeze during extended periods of non-use in cold weather. We recommend that a tank heater be installed in this system to help prevent freezing. OWTS MAINTENANCE • Inspect the septic tank, effluent pump, effluent pump vault filter and soil treatment area at least annually for problems or signs of failure. • The pump vault filter should be cleaned annually by spray washing solids into the first chamber of the septic tank. • Septic tank should be pumped and cleaned every 3 to 5 years depending on use. Longer pumping intervals may increase the amount of solids that reach the soil absorption area, which may shorten its life span. • Pumping of the septic tank should take place when the level of the sludge and scum layers combined take up 25 to 33% of the capacity of the first chamber of the tank. - 10 - Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 19-7-198.02 OWTS CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION The Eagle County Environmental Health Department requires that the designer of the system provide a record drawing and certification of the OWTS construction (As-Built). We should be provided with at least 48-hour notice prior to the installer needing the inspections. Prior to issuance of our certification letter, we require observation of all system components prior to backfill. The number of site visits required for the inspection will depend on the installer’s construction schedule. LIMITATIONS We have conducted this design in accordance with generally accepted engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no warranty either expressed or implied. The recommendations provided in this report are based on the site conditions, profile pit evaluations, soil texture analysis, the proposed construction and our experience in the area. 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 our design. It is our opinion, that the designed location of the OWTS components does not violate any setback requirements of the current Eagle County Regulations. Below is a table of common minimum horizontal setbacks to OWTS components. Refer to the Eagle County Regulations for a complete list of required setbacks. We recommend the OWTS components be surveyed by a Professional Colorado Land Surveyor.

See attached. The picture is current and the detail is our plan, no groundwater type intercept drain, but along with the swale we thought we would include a pipe and some gravel. Drain/swale will be 10’ from the STA. Judd Shoup is installer and Tyler is the new GC. Permit attached. We are at the As-built phase, following up from last year and but wanted to keep you in the loop. Let us know if you are ok with this approach. Thanks David A. Young, P.E.
