Permitted Construction / Details:
Install the OWTS exactly as depicted in the JVA, Inc. design, signed, stamped and dated October 14th, 2021 by
Simon A. Farrell, PE. The OWTS is designed with capacity to serve both the single family residence and the
detached ADU, for a total of five bedrooms.
The system consists of two sewer lines, one from the residence and one from the ADU. A Valley Precast 1,500
gallon, single compartment tank with effluent filter and high water alarm placed on the outlet tee, followed by a
2,000 gallon Valley Precast three-compartment recirculating/dose tank which will send wastewater to two, Orenco
Advantex Series AX 20 pods for nitrification using an Orenco PF 500512 pump. Nitrified effluent flows to the splitter
valve for recirculation to the 1,500 gallon first tank for denitrification then is dosed using an Orenco PF 501512 pump
to 3,072 square feet of soil treatment area via four beds consisting of four rows of 16 Infiltrator Quick 4 Plus Standard
chambers for a total of 256 Infiltrator chambers.
Distribution lateral details, along with orifice size, spacing and orientation are on the design drawing. The
contractor must verify that all electrical components and inspections are covered under the electrical permit
associated with the Orenco Vericom control panel (Model VCOM-AX20B2) and pump connections. The alarm must
be connected to a separate circuit. Additional pump details are on the design drawing. Advantex systems must
conform to the CDPHE technology approval letter dated May 1, 2018, including configuration in mode 3 for treatment
level 3N.
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 the functionality of the system. System certification, along with
photos and a record drawing is required to be submitted to and approved by Eagle County Environmental Health
prior to the use of the system.

RE: Frost Creek - Onsite Wastewater Treatment System Design – Lot 28, Eagle County, CO
Dear Claire:
JVA Inc. (JVA) has prepared a design of an onsite wastewater treatment system (OWTS) to
serve Lot 28 within the Frost Creek PUD. JVA is the designated engineer to process all OWTS
permit applications within Frost Creek. JVA has prepared the OWTS design to be in general
conformance with OWTS requirements of the PUD.
The 2020 annual Water Quality Monitoring Report prepared by Wright Water Engineers
documents exceedances of the 85th percentile background concentrations during sampling events
in 2020. The report states the following ‘While the concentrations observed in 2020 were high
for Total Phosphorus and Total Suspended Solids in surface water, upon evaluation of the pattern
of concentrations of each water quality parameter for surface and groundwater at the Frost Creek
PUD, there are no evident increasing trends in the concentration of the sampled parameters that
were outside of the range of historical values. Therefore, all three components of the trigger
limits have not yet been met, and mitigation action is not yet required.’
Sincerely,
JVA, INCORPORATED

RE: Frost Creek Lot 28 – Site and Soil Investigation for an Onsite Wastewater Treatment
System (OWTS)
JVA Job No. 1037.25e
Dear Claire:
Enclosed in this report are the results of the site and soil evaluation for Lot 28’s proposed OWTS
located in Frost Creek, Colorado. This report provides information needed to support the design
of an OWTS including: results from the preliminary investigation, the site visit, and the soil
evaluation. Design calculations are included in the drawing Permit Set attached.
PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION
In preparation for the site visit and soil evaluation, a preliminary investigation was conducted the
week of October 28, 2020. Architectural site plans, aerial imagery, and previous geotechnical
investigations were used for the preliminary investigation. Geotechnical investigations were
performed by HP Geotech in October 2002 across Frost Creek for OWTS suitability. Results from
the HP Geotech report showed that for the proposed location, Test Hole A and Test Hole B had a
topsoil from zero to six inches deep, a gravelly sandy clay from six inches to eight feet deep. No
groundwater was encountered in either test hole.
SITE VISIT AND SOIL EVALUATION
A site visit and soil evaluation were conducted the week of November 4, 2020. The purpose of
the site visit and soil evaluation was to confirm hypotheses from the preliminary investigation,
identify the topography, landscape position, vegetation, and site constraints for the proposed
OWTS, and to conduct a visual and tactile soil evaluation of the underlying soils where the
proposed soil treatment area (STA) is to be located for both suitability and sizing.
The topography of the site slopes from west to east. The dominant vegetation at the proposed
OWTS consists of native grasses and sage brush. Site Constraints are shown in the Permit
Documents. For the visual and tactile soil evaluation, two soil profile holes were excavated using
a tracked excavator in the locations identified in the Permit Documents. As seen in Table 1 below,
soil morphology for Soil Profile Hole One from zero to six inches was loam topsoil, from six
inches to six feet was a rocky sandy clay loam, and from six feet on was bedrock. Soil morphology
for Soil Profile Hole Two was similar to Soil Profile Hole One with loam topsoil from zero to two
feet, from two feet to five and a half feet was a rocky sandy clay loam, and from five and a half
feet on was bedrock. No redoximorphic features, indicating seasonally high groundwater, were
observed in either hole. Figures 1 through 4 below show the soil profile holes and corresponding

morphology. Therefore, R-2, Type 3 was identified as the soil type. The proposed STA will be a
bed designed using an LTAR of 0.35.

RE: Frost Creek Lot 28 – Site and Soil Investigation for an Onsite Wastewater Treatment
System (OWTS)
JVA Job No. 1037.25e
Dear Claire:
Enclosed in this report are the results of the site and soil evaluation for Lot 28 proposed OWTS
located in Frost Creek, Colorado. This report provides information needed to support the design
of an OWTS including results from the preliminary investigation, the site visit, and the soil
evaluation. Design calculations are included in the drawing Permit Set attached.
PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION
In preparation for the site visit and soil evaluation, a preliminary investigation was conducted the
week of November 3rd, 2020. Architectural site plans, aerial imagery, and previous Geotechnical
investigations were used for the preliminary investigation. Geotechnical investigations were
performed by HP Geotech in October 2002 across Frost Creek for OWTS suitability. Results from
the HP Geotech report showed that for the proposed location, Test Hole A and B had a topsoil
from zero to six inches deep and a sandy clay gravel from six inches to eight feet deep. No
groundwater was encountered in either hole.
SITE VISIT AND SOIL EVALUATION
A site visit and soil evaluation were conducted the week of July 27th, 2021. The purpose of the
site visit and soil evaluation was to confirm hypotheses from the preliminary investigation, identify
the topography, landscape position, vegetation, and site constraints for the proposed OWTS, and
to conduct a visual and tactile soil evaluation of the underlying soils where the proposed soil
treatment area (STA) is to be located for both suitability and sizing.
The topography of the site slopes from west to east. The dominant vegetation at the proposed
OWTS consists of native grasses. Site Constraints are shown in the Permit Documents. For the
visual and tactile soil evaluation, two soil profile holes were excavated using a tracked excavator
in the locations identified in the Permit Documents. As seen in Table 1 below, soil morphology
for Soil Profile Hole One from zero to six inches was Soil Type 2A, from six inches to four feet
deep was Soil Type R-1, Option 1 with 3, and from four feet to eight feet deep was Soil Type R-1
Option 1 with 4. Soil morphology for Soil Profile Hole Two from six inches to eight feet deep
was Soil Type R-1, Option 1 with 4. No redoximorphic features, indicating seasonally high
groundwater, were observed in either hole. Figures 1 through 4 below show the soil profile holes

and corresponding morphology. Therefore, Soil Type R-1 Option 1 with 4 was identified as the
soil type.
