HomeMy WebLinkAbout234 Blue Creek Trl - 239127107004 (2) September 15, 2015 Project No. C1120 Max Wheeler maxwheeler@mac.com Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Repair Design 234 Blue Creek Trail Eagle County, Colorado Max, ALL SERVICE septic, LLC has completed an onsite wastewater treatment system (OWTS) repair design for the existing OWTS located at 234 Blue Creek Trail, as recommended in the enclosed Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) inspection report from CBO Inc. dated December 11, 2014. A permit must be obtained from Eagle County Environmental Health prior to commencement of the work. The work must be conducted by a Licensed Systems Contractor. EXISTING OWTS The existing OWTS consists of a 1250-gallon, two-compartment Copeland Concrete septic tank followed by a distribution box, which distributes effluent to three trenches with distribution piping approximately 2- feet below grade, 4-feet wide, with 1-foot of gravel under the distribution piping. Eagle County Department of Environmental Health Permit No. 498 documents this OWTS. The septic tank was replaced in 2014 without a permit. At the time of the inspection of the OWTS, the septic tank lids were accessible from grade, inlet and outlet tees were present, and the septic tank was holding liquid at normal levels. These items will be verified again upon final inspection of the repairs. REPAIRS Necessary repairs outlined in the OWTS Inspection report from CBO Inc. dated December 11, 2014 are as follows: Replace cast iron pipe from exiting the residence to the septic tank.  This pipe must be minimum 4-inch diameter, SDR 35 pipe with a minimum grade of 2%. The trench must be well bedded with screened rock or similar material to assure no future settling of the pipe. If installation of the pipe is less than 18-inches below grade, we recommend placing BlueBoard insulation over the pipe to protect against freezing. Install an effluent screen on the outlet tee of the septic tank.  We recommend an Orenco® Effluent filter. Specifications are enclosed. This filter must be cleaned annually, or as needed. The distribution box must be replaced and brought to grade for future accessibility.  We recommend a concrete distribution box (specifications enclosed). The distribution box must have a baffle or the inlet pipe should angle downward toward the bottom of the box. Flow Page 2 equalizers (specifications enclosed), or similar product, must be installed on each of the three pipes exiting the distribution box to assure equal distribution to each trench. Piping to the beginning of the trenches must be excavated and checked for good integrity and proper slope.  The condition of the beginning of the soil treatment area (STA) at the front end of the trenches should also be verified at this time. If the STA is found to be in poor condition, an addition to the existing STA should be considered. This office must be called to verify the condition. Although the existing STA was installed in 1981, the original septic tank was likely leaking for an extended time, allowing resting of the STA. The component manufacturers are typical of applications used by contractors and engineers in this area. Alternatives may be considered or recommended by contacting our office. Construction must be according to Eagle County On-Site Wastewater Treatment System Regulations, the OWTS Permit provided by Eagle County Environmental Health Department, and this design. REVEGETATION REQUIREMENTS An adequate layer of good quality topsoil capable of supporting revegetation shall be placed over the entire disturbed area of the OWTS installation. A mixture of native grass seed that has good soil stabilizing characteristics (but without taproots), provides a maximum transpiration rate, and competes well with successional species. No trees or shrubs, or any vegetation requiring regular irritation shall be placed over the area. Until vegetation is reestablished, erosion and sediment control measures shall be implemented and maintained on site. The owner of the OWTS shall be responsible for maintaining proper vegetation cover. OPERATION INFORMATION AND MAINTENANCE The property owner shall be responsible for the operation and maintenance of each OWTS servicing the property. The property owner is responsible for maintaining service contracts for manufactured units, alternating STAs, and any other components needing maintenance. No heavy equipment, machinery, or materials should be placed on the backfilled STA. Livestock should not graze on the STA. Plumbing fixtures should be checked to ensure that no additional water is being discharged to OWTS. For example, a running toilet or leaky faucet can discharge hundreds of gallons of water a day and harm a STA. If an effluent filter or screen has been installed in the OWTS, we recommend this filter or screen be cleaned annually, or as needed. If the OWTS consists of a pressurized pump system, we recommend the laterals be flushed annually, or as needed. The homeowner should pump the septic tank every two years, or as needed gauged by measurement of solids in the tank. Garbage disposal use should be minimized, and non-biodegradable materials should not be placed into the OWTS. Grease should not be placed in household drains. Loading from a water softener should not be discharged into the OWTS. No hazardous wastes should be directed into the OWTS. Mechanical room drains should not discharge into the OWTS. The OWTS is engineered for domestic waste only. ADDITIONAL CONSTRUCTION NOTES Excavation equipment must not drive in excavation of the STA due to the potential to compact soil. Extensions should be placed on all septic tank components to allow access to them from existing grade. Backfill over the STA must be uniform and granular with no material greater than minus 3-inch. Page 3 INSTALLATION OBSERVATIONS ALL SERVICE septic, LLC must view the OWTS during construction. The OWTS observation should be performed before backfill, after placement of OWTS components. Septic tanks, distribution devices, pumps, dosing siphons, and other plumbing, as applicable, must also be observed. ALL SERVICE septic, LLC should be notified 48 hours in advance to observe the installation. LIMITS: The design is based on information submitted. If soil conditions encountered are different from conditions described in the report, ALL SERVICE septic, LLC should be notified. All OWTS construction must be according to the county regulations. Requirements not specified in this report must follow applicable county regulations. The contractor should have documented and demonstrated knowledge of the requirements and regulations of the county in which they are working. Licensing of Systems Contractors may be required by county regulation. Please call with questions.

The legal description of the property is as follows: Subdivision: MOUNTAIN MEADOW RANCH FIL 1 Lot: 4 Eagle County Environmental Health Department provided documents pertaining to the existing OWTS, including Eagle County Department of Environmental Health Permit No. 498, detail schematic drawings, and a percolation test. In May, 2014, a new 1250-gallon, two-compartment Copeland Concrete septic tank was installed by Joe Zamora. No permit was obtained by the former owner of the property for the tank installation. Mr. Zamora assisted with our inspection to better explain the conditions of the existing OWTS discovered in the course of the septic tank repair. The previous tank was found to be cracked and leaking. The septic tank was abandoned in place, crushed, and the void filled with rock and other on-site materials. The sewer line exiting the structure was found to be cast iron pipe. The cast iron pipe was replaced with SDR 35 pipe from the point of the inlet of the septic tank that was abandoned. We recommend replacing the cast iron pipe exiting the residence. A clean out was installed beyond the deck, in front of the new septic tank. The new septic tank was accessible within a few inches of grade. Both inlet and outlet tees on the tank were present and water levels were found to be normal. We recommend installation of an effluent filter on the outlet tee of the septic tank. If installed, this filter must be cleaned annually, or as needed. During the course of the tank replacement, a distribution box was discovered and was found to be in disrepair. The distribution box was not replaced at that time, but plumbing to each trench was routed through the box. We recommend the distribution box be replaced and brought to grade for future accessibility. The distribution box must have a baffle or the inlet pipe should angle downward toward the bottom of the box. Flow regulators should be installed on each of the three pipes exiting the distribution box to assure equal distribution to each trench. A permit must be obtained from Eagle County Environmental Health prior to commencement of the work. The work must be conducted by a Licensed Systems Contractor. Mr. Zamora pointed out the possible beginning of each trench and described them to be pipe and gravel. Inspection ports/vents were present at the end of the trenches. In the permit documentation, the trenches are described as 4-feet wide, 84-feet long, and 1-foot of gravel below the distribution piping. Mr. Zamora noted that no effluent had reached the field in some time due to the issues with the previous septic tank. At the time of the inspection, there were no signs of surface saturation or failure in the soil treatment area (STA). This evaluation is not a guarantee of future system performance. We understand a remodel/addition to the residence is being proposed. The original OWTS was permitted in 1982 to accommodate a 2-bedroom residence. The septic tank is sufficient to accommodate a 3-bedroom residence; however, the STA falls short of the required area due to the percolation test results of 60 minutes per inch (MPI). We recommend digging two 8-foot soil profile test pit excavations, as required by current regulation, in order to conduct a visual and tactile evaluation of the soils. The total area required for the STA to serve a 3-bedroom residence can be determined at that time. Please call with questions.

The report details the existing OWTS, complete with recommendations for continued use (enclosed). EXISTING SOIL TREATMENT AREA (STA) The existing STA consists of three trenches. Inspection ports/vents were present at the end of the trenches. Eagle County permit documentation describes the trenches as 4-feet wide, 84-feet long, and 1-foot of gravel below the distribution piping. In an interview with the contractor that installed the septic tank in 2014 (Joe Zamora), he described the distribution laterals at approximately 2-feet below grade, 4-feet wide, with 1-foot of gravel under the distribution piping. Eagle County documents these rows as “trenches”, although they are 4-feet in width. This width differs from the current definition of a trench, which is limited to 3-feet in width. SUBSURFACE The subsurface was investigated on December 19, 2014 by digging a soil profile test pit excavation (Test Pit #1) immediately down gradient and adjacent to the existing STA. Only one test pit was excavated. Visual and tactile soil analysis was completed by Carla Ostberg at the time of excavation.1 The materials encountered in Test Pit #1 consisted of dark brown, moist, topsoil to 2.0-feet, underlain by whitish / tan “caliche” soils to a maximum depth explored of 6.0-feet, where large basalt boulders made digging very difficult. The soils below 2.0-feet had a granular structure shape, strong structure grade, and friable consistence. No bedrock or groundwater was encountered. We recommend comparison of the existing STA sizing based on Soil Type 2. A long term acceptance rate (LTAR) of 0.6 gallons per square foot is recommended, in accordance with Table 10-1 presented in the Eagle County On-Site Wastewater Treatment System Regulations, adopted May 13, 2014. 1 Carla Ostberg holds a Certificate of Attendance and Examination from the CPOW Visual and Tactile Evaluation of Soils Training. Page 2 Test Pits observed December 19, 2014 Test Pit #1 View of profile pit, looking northeast Inspection ports/vents on existing STA Test Pit #1 Dark brown topsoil Caliche below 2.0-feet Dark brown organic topsoil above 2.0-feet Page 3 Sieved soil sample from 2.5 to 3.0-feet COMPARISON Documents pertaining to the existing OWTS were provided by Eagle County Environmental Health Department. A percolation test conducted on February 28, 1981 by Robert Nelson describes percolation tests run “below the house site” with depths of the test holes between 25 and 26-inches below grade. Results varied between 40 and 80 minutes per inch (MPI) with an average percolation rate of 60 MPI. Under current code, this percolation rate would indicate a Long Term Acceptance Rate (LTAR) of 0.35 gallons per square feet. Notes provided on the Field Test Data Sheet on Percolation Test also describe “slopes 5 – 10%, large 5- acre lot, sideslope landscape position (convex slope), silty clay. Volcanic cinders 2.0-inches to 4.0-feet in diameter. No soil profile yet available. 4-inches of gravel on bottom of each test hole.” When examining this documentation, we believe it is possible that without a soil profile, the percolation test holes may have been dug just above where the “caliche” horizon begins, resulting in a slower percolation when the test was conducted. The existing STA has been described as pipe and gravel, with laterals approximately 2.0-feet below grade, and 1.0-foot of gravel below the laterals. This would indicate that effluent encounters native soils at approximately 3.0-feet below grade, below the topsoil horizon and within the “caliche” horizon. CALCULATIONS Q = 3 bedrooms x 75 gallons/person/day x 2 people/bedroom = 450 gallons / day A = Q / LTAR = 450 gallons/day / 0.6 gallons/ square feet/ day = 750 square feet Gravity, trenches = 750 square feet x 1.0 = 750 square feet Rock and pipe = 750 square feet x 1.0 = 750 square feet required area Existing STA 84’ long x 3’ wide x 3 trenches = 756 square feet2 The existing STA appears to be of sufficient size to accommodate a 3-bedroom residence. 2 Using 3-feet for width measurement of the trench. Actual width is noted as 4-feet in Eagle County documents. Page 4 RECOMMENDATIONS Recommendations outlined in the OWTS Inspection report dated December 12, 2014 from CBO Inc. should be implemented. A permit must be obtained from Eagle County Environmental Health prior to commencement of the work. The work must be conducted by a Licensed Systems Contractor. While the sizing of the STA is consistent with current regulatory standards, the infrastructure is over 30 years old. Pipe and gravel trenches are no longer considered optimal technology for a STA. There is no guarantee on the longevity of the STA given these circumstances. Please call with questions.
