Inspection Notes
The above-referenced permit has been inspected and finalized.
The Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) was designed and installed to serve the three-bedroom residence on the
above property. Additional information about the maintenance of your septic system needs can be accessed through our
website links, provided on the Environmental Health Department’s septic system resource page.
Be aware that changes in the use of your property or alterations of your building may require commensurate changes to, or
relocation of, your septic system. Landscape features, trees with taproots, irrigation systems, and parking areas above the
soil treatment area can cause a premature system failure. It is equally important that you notice and immediately repair
dripping faucets and hissing toilets as this will certainly cause the system to fail. If you have any questions regarding this
information, please contact us at (970) 328-8755 and reference the OWTS septic permit number.

Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Installation Observations
Lot 42, Aspen Mesa Estates
42 Pinon
Eagle County, Colorado
Permit #: OWTS-020391-2021
John,
CBO Inc. observed the installation of the onsite wastewater treatment system (OWTS) February 25, 2021
for the subject property. E&L Trucking installed the system.
The OWTS design is based on 3-bedrooms. An average daily wastewater flow of 450 GPD was
used.
A 4-inch diameter SDR-35 sewer line has been installed with a double-sweep clean out and min. 2% fall
to the septic tank.
The system installation included a 1000-gallon, two-compartment Infiltrator® poly septic tank with an
Orenco® Biotube effluent filter on the outlet tee. This filter must be cleaned annually, or as needed.
Risers bring the manhole lids to grade for access.
Effluent gravity flows to a distribution box, and then to three gravelless chamber trenches. The
distribution box was made accessible from grade and has flow equalizers installed on each outlet pipe to
assure equal flow to each bed.
Each trench consists of 15 ‘Quick 4’ Standard Plus Infiltrator® chambers for a total of 45 chambers and
540 square feet of infiltrative area. There was at least 4-feet of undisturbed soil between each trench.
Inspection ports were installed at the beginning and end of each trench. Ports may be cut to grade and
placed in sprinkler boxes for access.
The OWTS was generally installed according to specifications. This observation is not a guarantee of
workmanship and/or parts and materials. CBO Inc. should be notified if changes are made to the OWTS
in the future. Any additional OWTS construction must be according to the county regulations.
LIMITS: Observations are limited to components that are visible at the time of the inspection. The installer must
have documented and demonstrated knowledge of the requirements and regulations of the county in
which they are working. The quality of the installation is dependent of the expertise of the installer, soil
type, and weather conditions.

Onsite Wastewater Treatment System Design
3-Bedroom Residence
Lot 42, Aspen Mesa Estates
42 Pinon
Eagle County, Colorado
John,
CBO Inc. has completed an onsite wastewater treatment system (OWTS) design for the subject
residence. The property is located outside of Basalt, in an area where OWTSs are necessary.
Legal Description: Subdivision: ASPEN MESA ESTATES FIL 1 Lot: 42
Parcel ID: 2391-273-01-006
SITE CONDITIONS The property is currently undeveloped. A 3-bedroom residence is proposed.
A ditch identified on the site plan bisects the property from the northeast to the southwest. This ditch has
been abandoned.
The proposed residence will be served potable water from a community water system. The water tap for
the property is located to the northeast of the proposed driveway. The water line will not come within 25-
feet of any proposed OWTS component.
The proposed soil treatment area (STA) slopes to the northwest at an approximate 10-12% slope. The
area of the proposed STA is vegetated with native grasses and sage.
There should be no traffic or staging of material over the future STA site to avoid compaction of soils
prior to construction of the STA.
SUBSURFACE The subsurface was investigated by Kumar & Associates and findings are documented in a report dated
November 9, 2020, Project No. 20-7-599. Two soil profile test pits were excavated to a maximum depth of 8-
feet. No bedrock or groundwater was encountered.
Soils below the topsoil horizon are described as gravelly loamy sand. The gradation results were as follows:
Gravel 22%
Sand 52%
Silt 22%
Clay 4%
Page 2
We interviewed Dan Hardin with Kumar & Associates and his recommendation for sizing of the STA should
be based on Soil Type 2. A long term acceptance rate (LTAR) of 0.6 gallons per square foot will be used
to design the OWTS.
DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS Design Calculations:
Average Design Flow = 75 gpd x 2 people/bedroom x 3 Bedrooms = 450 GPD
LTAR = 0.6 GPD/SF
450 GPD / 0.6 GPD/SF x 1.0 (gravity trenches) x 0.7 (chambers) = 525 SF
The OWTS design is based on 3-bedrooms. An average daily wastewater flow of 450 GPD will be used.
For the purposes of this OWTS design, Benchmark Elevation at grade 7255’ finished floor has been
established as 100’. CBO Inc. should be notified of any discrepancies or problems with grade elevations
of proposed components during installation of the OWTS.
OWTS Component Minimum Elevation
Primary Tank Inlet Invert Approx. horizontal distance 58’ / min. fall to septic
tank 2% / min. 14.5” fall
Distribution Box Approx. horizontal distance 24’ / min. fall to
distribution box 1% / min. 3.0” fall
Infiltrative Surface Approx. horizontal distance to highest trench 14’ /
min. 1% fall / min. 1.75” fall
A 4-inch diameter SDR-35 sewer line will be installed with a double-sweep clean out and min. 2% fall to
the septic tank.
The system installation must include a 1000-gallon, two-compartment Infiltrator® poly septic tank with an
Orenco® Biotube effluent filter on the outlet tee. Risers must bring the manhole lids to grade for access.
If more than one riser is added to the septic tank, an extension handle must be installed on the effluent
filter.
Effluent will gravity flow to a distribution box, and then to three gravelless chamber trenches. The
distribution box must be accessible from grade and must have flow equalizers, or similar product,
installed on each outlet pipe in the distribution box to assure equal flow to each bed.
Each trench will consist of 15 ‘Quick 4’ Standard Plus Infiltrator® chambers for a total of 45 chambers
and 540 square feet of infiltrative area. There must be at least 4-feet of undisturbed soil between each
trench. Inspection ports must be installed at the beginning and end of each trench. Ports may be cut to
grade and placed in sprinkler boxes for access.

COMPONENT SPECIFICATIONS
The component manufacturers are typical of applications used by contractors and engineers in this area.
CBO Inc. must approve alternative components prior to installation of the OWTS. Requests must
be submitted, in writing, to our office for approval prior to installation. Component technical data
sheets are available upon request.

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.
INSTALLATION CONTRACTOR
CBO Inc. expects that the installer be experienced and qualified to perform the scope of work outlined in this
design. The installer must review this design thoroughly and coordinate with our office in advance of
installation. Any additional conditions in this design or county permit must be completed and documented
prior to final approval of the OWTS installation. Communication between the installer and this office is
expected throughout the installation.
INSTALLATION OBSERVATIONS CBO Inc. 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. CBO Inc. should be notified 48 hours
in advance to observe the installation.
In an effort to improve the accuracy of the record drawing, we request that the installer provide a
sketch of the installation, including path of the sewer lines, water line installation (if applicable),
septic tank location, STA location, and measurements from building corners or another fixed
objects on the property. This sketch is most easily provided on Sheet W2.0 of the OWTS Design
Packet. Photographs of the installation and final cover are also requested to supplement our installation
documentation.

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 irrigation 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.
Geo-fabrics or plastics should not be used over the STA. No heavy equipment, machinery, or materials
should be placed on the backfilled STA. Machines with tracks (not wheels) should be used during
construction of the STA for better weight distribution. 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 If design includes a pump, weep holes must be installed to allow pump lines to drain to minimize risk of
freezing. The pump shall have an audible and visual alarm notification in the event of excessively high
water conditions and shall be connected to a control breaker separate from the high-water alarm breaker
and from any other control system circuits. The pump system shall have a switch so the pump can be
manually operated.
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.
LIMITS: The design is based on information submitted. If soil conditions encountered are different from conditions
described in report, CBO Inc. 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.

Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation and Septic Design, Proposed Residence, Lot 42,
Aspen Mesa Estates, First Filing, Pinion & Sierra Vista, Missouri Heights, Eagle
County, Colorado
Dear John:
As requested, Kumar & Associates, Inc. performed a subsoil study for foundation design and
septic disposal feasibility at the subject site. The study was conducted in accordance with our
agreement for geotechnical engineering services to you dated October 9, 2020. The data
obtained and our recommendations based on the proposed construction and subsurface
conditions encountered are presented in this report.
Proposed Construction: The proposed residence will be a one to two story wood frame
structure over a crawlspace or slab-on-grade main floor level located on the site in the area of
Pits 1 and 2, as shown on Figure 1. Cut depths are expected to range between about 2 to 3 feet.
Foundation loadings for this type of construction are assumed to be relatively light and typical of
the proposed type of construction. The septic disposal system is proposed to be located west and
downhill of the house site in the area of Profile Pits 1 and 2 as shown on Figure 1.
If building conditions or foundation loadings are significantly different from those described
above, we should be notified to re-evaluate the recommendations presented in this report.
Site Conditions: The site was vacant at the time of our site visit on October 12, 2020. The
proposed building area is on a broad knoll with gentle slopes down to the north and west and
steeper slopes down to the south and east. Site grading appeared to be mostly natural with cut
slopes at the west side of the lot for Sierra Vista Road and on the north side of the lot for Pinion
Road. Vegetation in the building area consisted of scattered pinon pine, juniper trees and oak
brush with an understory of grass, weeds, sagebrush and cactus. Vegetation in the septic
disposal area was mostly grass with scattered sage and rabbit brush.

Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 20-7-599
Subsurface Conditions: The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by excavating two
exploratory pits in the building area and two profile pits in the septic disposal area at the
approximate locations shown on Figure 1. The logs of the pits are presented on Figure 2. The
subsoils encountered in the building area, below about 1 foot of topsoil, consist of basalt rocks
from cobble to small boulder size in a gravelly sandy silt matrix down to refusal to backhoe
digging at 3 to 4 feet deep. The soils in the septic area, below 1 to 1½ feet of topsoil, consisted
of gravelly loamy sand down to the bottom of the pits at 8 feet. Results of a USDA gradation
analysis performed on a sample of the loamy sand (minus 3-inch fraction) obtained from the site
are presented on Figure 3. The laboratory test results are summarized in Table 1. No free water
was observed in the pits at the time of excavation and the soils were slightly moist.
Foundation Recommendations: Considering the subsoil conditions encountered in the
exploratory pits and the nature of the proposed construction, we recommend spread footings
placed on the undisturbed natural basalt rock soil designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure
of 2,000 psf for support of the proposed residence. Footings should be a minimum width of
16 inches for continuous walls and 2 feet for columns. Loose disturbed soils encountered at the
foundation bearing level within the excavation should be moistened and compacted or removed
and the footing bearing level extended down to the undisturbed natural soils. We should observe
the completed foundation excavation to confirm suitable bearing conditions. Exterior footings
should be provided with adequate cover above their bearing elevations for frost protection.
Placement of footings at least 36 inches below the exterior grade is typically used in this area.
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 be designed to resist a lateral earth pressure based on an equivalent fluid unit
weight of at least 50 pcf for the on-site soil as backfill, excluding organics and rock larger than
6 inches.
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 ¾-inch road base gravel should be placed beneath basement level slabs to facilitate
drainage. This material should consist of minus 2-inch aggregate with less than 50% passing the
No. 4 sieve and less than 12% passing the No. 200 sieve.
- 3 -
Kumar & Associates, Inc. ® Project No. 20-7-599
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 soils devoid of vegetation, topsoil and oversized rock.
Underdrain System: An underdrain system should not be needed for the proposed slab-on-
grade main floor or shallow crawlspace.
If a deeper crawlspace or basement level is built, the underdrain 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.
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 1½ feet deep.
Surface Drainage: The following drainage precautions should be observed during construction
and maintained at all times after the residence has 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.
Free-draining wall backfill (if any) should be capped with about 2 feet of the on-
site, finer graded soils to reduce surface water infiltration.
3) The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the building 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 pavement and walkway areas.
4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all
backfill.
Septic Field: The profile pits were dug at the locations shown on Figure 1. The soils exposed in
the Profile Pits shown on Figure 2 consist of gravelly loamy sand and should be suitable for a
conventional infiltration septic disposal system. A civil engineer should design the infiltration
septic disposal system.
Limitations: This study has been conducted in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical
engineering principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no warranty either
