Lupton, CO 80621 To Whom It Nlay Concern: It is my understanding that the property 1931 Lona Ave, Ft. Lupton CO want to go through a. change of use. Weld County requires a letter regarding the use/design of the OWTS system of the property from an Engineer is acceptable. Weld County does not have record of the size of leach Held as it was installed prior to permits being required and possible upgraded without the County's knowledge. Reviewing historical images of the subject property we cannot find a green area that would give the approximate size of the leach field. We sent a potholing crew to find the existing OWTS system. Frotn the information that we have obtained, the OWTS system consists of a 1500 gallon septic tank and a 102 foot long, single row of infiltrators (field determined 1129122). Groundwater was not encounter during potholing, and the existing soils are considered a type 1 soil as most of the soils are sand. The current owners of the property did not install any of the existing OWTS system. The property was previously used as a transportation depot that had 15 full time employees and there are no known issues with. the septic system not functioning correctly. The existing owner of the property' (International Farms, LLC, Jorge and Lillana Borrego) will only have six full time employees. Per Table 30-6-2 of Weld County's OWTS Regulations an employee produces on average 15 gpd with .06 BOD5 pounds per day. With a. total of 6 employees this will equate to 90 gpd and 0.36 BOD5 pounds per day produced. This amount produced is less than a two bedroom house per Table 30-6-1. With their proposed use, a septic tank of 1000 gallons would be required and assuming the soil is a type 1 soil (Sandy, Loamy Sand), a soil treatment area for a trench system is 158 square feet. From the information that we have received, we have an existing septic tank of 1500 gallons capacity, a leach field consisting of a single row of infiltrators 102 foot long with a total area of 306 s.f. (102'/(4' long/infiltrator)* 12sflinfiltrator— 306 s.f.). From my understanding the existing OWTS system is in working order. The system as installed should be able to handle a total flow of 350 gpd (31 employees (15*23— 345 gpd)) assuming a trench system with infiltrators and an area of 306 s.f. with type 1 soils. We attached a drawing showing the location of the existing OWTS system. Please feel free to give me a call if you have any questions. Sincerely, Josh Cook, P.F. President NOCO Engineering Company.

These forms are available from our website at the following link: hitp:l/water,state,co.us/DWRDoes/Forms/PagesiWellPermittinoFormsByNumber,aspx, or from any Division of Water Resources office. The well must be constructed and the pumping equipment installed in accordance with the well construction standards of the Board. The WATER WELL CONSTRUCTION RULES and BOARD OF EXAMINERS RULES can be obtained from our website at the following link: http://water.state.co.us/groundwater/ROF/Pages/ROFRules.aspx, or purchased from any Division of Water Resources office for a small fee. These Rules cover the minimum requirements for well construction, pump installation, disinfection, plugging and sealing and contractor licensing regulations. If you are constructing your own well or installing pumping equipment, it is recommended that you obtain a copy of these Rules for reference. The well construction and primp installation reports including testing of well yields and pumping systems must be submitted to the office of the State Engineer by the respective contractors within sixty (60) days of completion of the work or prior to the expiration date of the permit, whichever is earlier. Your contractor(s) must provide you with a copy of the work report(s) filed with the State Engineer. RULE 12 WELL TESTING 12.1 General - The provisions of this rule establish minimum standards for the testing of water wells. Every well constructed for the purpose of producing ground water shall be tested to determine: a. a stabilized yield for the well; and b. the production rate of the equipment installed when the well is placed into service. 12.2 Well Yield Test - The yield of a well shall be determined as a stabilized production rate where the withdrawal rate and the drawdown do not change by more than 10 % during the last hour of the test. The test shall demonstrate that either: a. the well is capable of producing the permitted pumping rate for the well; or b. that the maximum yield of the well is less than the permitted production rate. 12.3 Responsibility for Well Yield Test - Well construction contractors are responsible for performing the well yield tea and submitting the test data to the State Engineer. . If the construction contractor also installs the production equipment, the well yield test may be combined with the production equipment test, provided that the test meets the requirements of Rule 12.2. The construction contractor may forgo the well yield test if he can show that a licensed pump installer will perform the well yield test with the permanent production equipment within thirty (30) days of completion of construction of the well. If the pump installation contractor performs the well yield test, he/she shall submit the test information on the Pump Installation and Test Report. 12.4 Production Equipment Test - The production equipment installed in wells shall be tested to ensure it is functioning as designed. The test shall demonstrate the production capacity of the equipment as actually installed in the well. It is the responsibility of the person installing the pumping system to ensure that the production from the well complies with the conditions of the permit. 12.3 Responsibility for Production Equipment Test - Pump installation contractors are responsible for testing the production equipment installed in a well upon completion of their work.
