ENGINEERS & GEOLOGISTS November 25, 1996 Jeff Hammers 1204 Weld County Road 7 Erie, CO 80516 Subject: Onsite Wastewater System Evaluation Office With Proposed Restroom 1204 Weld County Road 7 Part of SW/4 , Section 27 , T1N, R68W, 6th P.M. Weld County, Colorado Job No. 8036 Dear Mr. Hammers , As requested , we observed the Onsite Wastewater System (OWS) located at the subject site. The purpose of our visit was to evaluate the condition of the existing OWS and to provide recommendations for the addition of a proposed office restroom. Record Information: A file search at Weld County Health Department was performed. We understand the OWS was installed in the late 1970's . The OWS was sized for 4 bedrooms ( 600 gallons per day (GPD) ) and consists of a 1500 gallon septic tank and 1600 square feet (SF) of field. Records indicate the OWS was inspected in November, 1988 and approved for continued use. No percolation test results or subsurface data was located. Site Observations: On November 21 , 1996 , we visited the site and have the following observations and comments: 1 . The septic tank appears to be a two compartment 1500 gallon concrete tank and appeared in good condition. 2 . According to Weld County records the field is 1600 SF. We believe the field to be 20 by 80 feet for an area of 1600 SF. 3 . No odors from the OWS were detected. 4. No effluent surfacing from the field was observed. 5. Vegetation over the field was moderate and slightly greener than surrounding vegetation. 6 . Drainage over and around the field appeared adequate. 7. No standpipes in the drain fields were found. 8 . Drainage around the septic tank was adequate. Conclusions and Recommendations: The tank and field appear to be in good condition. Our evaluation indicates the OWS can be sized for a 925 East 17th Avenue • Denver,Colorado 80218-1407 P.O.Box 2869 • Evergreen,Colorado 80437-2869 (303)832-9692 FAX(303)832-3517 (303)674-0669612M-0813 2 5 bedroom residence based on septic tank capacity and a 4 bedroom residence based on field area. We understand the existing residence has 3 bedrooms with a the fourth bedroom having been converted to an office. An office with a restroom for a dog training school is proposed as indicated on Fig. 1 . The restroom is to be used by dog owners only to avoid the need to use restroom facilities at the residence. No load- ing from dog washing or waste will be introduced into the OWS. Class- es consist of eight students per class, two classes per day, six days per week. Average daily loading for an office worker is 15 gallons per person per an eight hour day. Since owners will be using the facilities for only two hours daily, we recommend using 15/4 or 3 .75 gallons per person per day for an additional average daily flow of 3 .75 X 8 = 30 GPD. As the OWS is sized for 600 GPD and is being used as a 3 bedroom residence for a loading of 450 GPD, we believe the OWS can accommodate an additional 30 GPD. An ejector pump is proposed to provide access from the office/restroom to the existing OWS, as indicated on Fig. 1 . Limitations: As noted, there was no evidence of malfunction and the field appears to be functioning satisfactorily. The field appears to be capable of a 600 GPD loading. However, this report is not to be interpreted as a guarantee , or a prediction, the OWS will continue to function satisfactorily in the future. There are too many variables and unknowns. These variables include: a. the amount of water and wastes discharged to the system; b. past care, maintenance, and age of the system; c. rainfall and weather conditions; d. subsurface ground water and soil conditions at the site; e. how the system was used in the weeks immediately preceding our site visit; and f. system instal- lation. Since the components of the OWS are located beneath the ground sur- face, the physical conditions of all pipes could not be observed. The septic tank and field construction, bacterial matting within the en- tire field, and absorption capacity of the field were not determined. File information indicates the size of the tank and field, but we did not verify construction of the OWS is in compliance with current State and County regulations or was in compliance at the time of construc- tion. If you have any questions concerning this project, or if we can be of further service, please contact our office. very truly yours /OO R_EG .. E. O. CHURCH, 0..4c,..
