Subject: As-Built Evaluation of On-site Wastewater Treatment System, East Greenhouse, Eagle Springs Organic, 5454A County Road 346, Garfield County, Colorado.
Dear Bryan:
As requested, Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical observed the installation of the on-site wastewater treatment system (OWTS) for the constructed greenhouse on the east side of the subject site. We previously designed the OWTS and presented our recOimnendations in a repoti dated August 31, 2010, Job No. 410 167A. The OWTS was designed for 20 employees working a standard eight-hour shift at the greenhouse. Our observations and recommendations of the as-built construction are presented in this report.
We performed our As-Built site evaluation on March 11, 2011. The OWTS components observed included: sewer line, cleanouts, septic tank, effluent filter, effluent pipe, distribution box, distribution pipes, trench excavations, Infiltrator chambers, inspection potts and the locations of all components.
The 4-inch sewer line from the greenhouse foundation was installed with the required minimum elevation drop of2% to the septic tank inlet. The sewer line was approximately 22 feet in length with properly installed cleanouts adjacent to the foundation and septic tank inlet. A 1,000 gallon, two-chamber Copeland Concrete septic tank was installed level at the location shown on the attached Figure 1 "As-Built Site Plan". Our design specified an effluent filter be installed in the second chamber of the tank. The effluent filter was not installed at this time. During our site visit, we were advised the filter was ordered and waiting arrival from Copeland Concrete. The 4-inch effluent line fi·om the septic tank outlet to the distribution box inlet was properly sloped with compacted material supporting the effluent line and was 16 feet in length. Cleanouts were installed after the septic tank outlet and prior to the distribution box inlet. The concrete distribution box was installed level with one inlet and three outlets. The three 4-inch distribution laterals from the distribution box outlets to the absorption trenches were installed with the proper slope to achieve effluent distribution.
The three trench excavations were observed with excavation depths ranging from approximately 3 to 5 feet, which allows for proper cover over the Infiltrator chambers.

Eagle Springs Organic March 31, 2011 Page 2
The trench excavations maintained the minimum 6 foot separation ofundisturbed earth between adjacent trench sidewalls. Each trench excavation contained 13 Infiltrator Standard Quick 4 chambers (39 total) for an absorption area size of382 square feet. The Infiltrator Quick 4 Standard chambers were installed level on the native soils at the locations shown on the attached Figure 1. The PVC observation ports were cut and onsite but not installed at the time of our visit.
The septic tank lid, risers and distribution box lid were sprayed with insulating foam to aid in frost protection. The septic tank lids and distribution box lid were accessible after the foam application.
It is our opinion that the OWTS meets the general intent of our August 31 , 2010 design report. The effluent fi lter for the tank should be installed as recommended. The As-Built OWTS site plan is shown on the attached Figure 1. Photographs of the OWTS system were taken but not available for this report due to camera malfunction.
The observations and recommendations presented above are based on our visit and our experience in the area. We make no warranty either express or implied. Alterations to the system including amendments, changing components, backfill and site grading could alter the operation and effectiveness of the OWTS.
Please feel :fi:ee to contact us if you have any questions.

Subject: Subsoil Study for Foundation Design and Percolation Test, Proposed Greenhouses, 5454A County Road 346, Garfield County, Colorado
Dear Mr. Reed:
As requested, Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. performed a subsoil study and
percolation test for foundation and septic disposal designs at the subject site. The study
was conducted in accordance with our agreement for geotechnical engineering services to
you dated June 21, 2010. The data obtained and our recommendations based on the
proposed construction and subsurface conditions encountered are presented in this report.
Evaluation of potential geologic hazard impacts to the site is beyond the scope of this
study.
Proposed Construction: The two proposed greenhouses will be fairly large structures
totaling about 1 Yz acres and located on the site as shown on Figure 1. Ground floors are
proposed to be dirt. Cut and fill depths are expected to be minor. Foundation loadings
will be carried by columns spaced 10 feet on center with total downward loadings of
about 9 and 18 kips for perimeter and interior colunms, respectively. Two septic disposal
systems are proposed to be located in the east and west areas of the site.
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 is located in fallow fields on a relatively flat mesa to the south
of County Road 346 and well above the valley floor. The ground surface is gently rolling
with a slight slope down to the north in the building areas.
Subsurface Conditions: The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by
excavating 6 exploratory pits in the building areas and one profile pit in each of the two
-2-
septic disposal areas at the approximate locations shown on Figure 1. The logs of the pits
are presented on Figure 2. The subsoils encountered, below about 1 foot of topsoil,
consist of sandy silty clay to the pit depths of6Y, to 9 feet. Results of swell-consolidation
testing performed on relatively undisturbed samples of the clay soils, presented on
Figures 4 through 7, indicate low compressibility under existing low moisture content and
light loading. The samples showed a low to moderate collapse potential when wetted and
moderate to high compressibility under additional loading. The laboratory test results are
summarized in Table I. No free water was observed in the pits at the time of excavation
and the soils were slightly moist.
Foundation Bearing Conditions: The subsurface exploration and laboratory testing
show that the natural clay soils at shallow depth are relatively low density and
compressible when wetted. Shallow spread footings will have a potential to settle an
unknown amount that would likely cause building distress and the need for future
remedial repairs. Subsurface exploration to determine the depth of compressible soils and
a deep foundation system such as piles or piers would be needed to design and construct a
low settlement risk foundation. We strongly suggest a deep foundation bearing in
relatively incompressible soils or rock be used for the building support since irrigation
within the greenhouses will inevitably cause deep wetting of the compressible clay soils.
Foundation Recommendations: Provided you accept the settlement risk and all distress
that results from subsurface wetting of the bearing soils, shallow spread footings placed
on the undisturbed natural soil and designed for an allowable soil bearing pressure of
1,000 psfcan be used for support of the proposed greenhouses. Initial settlements are
expected to be 1 inch or less but post-construction foundation settlement could be 2 to 4
inches or more depending on the depth of wetted compressible soils. Footings should be
a minimum width of24 inches. The topsoil and loose disturbed soils should be removed.
The exposed natural soils should then be moistened to near optimum and compacted.
Exterior footings should be provided with adequate cover above their bearing elevations
for frost protection. Placement offootings at least 36 inches below the exterior grade is
typically used in this area. Continuous foundation walls (if any) should be reinforced top
and bottom to span local anomalies such as by assuming an unsupported length of at least
15 feet. A moist unit weight of 110 pcf, sliding coefficient of0.30 and passive earth
pressure of 300 pcf, equivalent fluid unit weight for the on-site soil as backfill can be
used to resist lateral and uplift building loadings.
Surface Drainage: The following drainage precautions should be observed during
construction and maintained at all times after the buildings have been completed:
JobNo.llO 18lA
- 3 -
1) Inundation of the foundation excavations should be avoided during
construction.
2) Exterior and interior backfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisture
and compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density in
pavement and walkway areas and to at least 90% of the maximum standard
Proctor density in landscape areas.
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 6 inches in the frrst 10 feet in unpaved
areas and a minimum slope of 3 inches in the frrst 1 0 feet in pavement and
walkway areas.
4) Landscaping (if any) should only consist ofxeriscape to limit potential
wetting of soils below the building caused by irrigation.
Percolation Testing: Percolation tests were conducted on June 23, 2010 to evaluate the
feasibility of an infiltration septic disposal system at the site. One profile pit and three
percolation holes were dug at each of the two proposed septic disposal locations shown on Figure 1. The test holes (nominal12 inch diameter by 12 inch deep) were hand dug at
the bottom of shallow backhoe pits and soaked with water one day prior to testing. The
soils exposed in the percolation holes are similar to those exposed in the two profile pits shown on Figure 2 and consist of sandy silty clay. The percolation test results are
presented in Table 2. Based on the subsurface conditions encountered and the percolation
test results, the tested areas should be suitable for a conventional infiltration septic disposal system. We recommend the infiltration area be oversized due to the relatively
slow percolation rates. We are available to design the infiltration septic disposal systems if needed.
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 expressed or implied. The conclusions and recommendations submitted
in this report are based upon the data obtained from the exploratory pits excavated at the
locations indicated on Figure 1, the proposed type of construction and our experience in
the area. Our services do not include determining the presence, prevention or possibility
of mold or other biological contaminants (MOBC) developing in the future. If the client
is concerned about MOBC, then a professional in this special field of practice should be
consulted. Our fmdings include interpolation and extrapolation of the subsurface
conditions identified at the exploratory pits and variations in the subsurface conditions
may not become evident until excavation is perfonned. If conditions encountered during
Job No.llO ISlA
~tech
-4-
construction appear different from those described in this report, we should be notified at
once so re-evaluation of the recommendations may be made.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for design purposes. We
are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our information. As the
project evolves, we should provide continued consultation and field services during
cons!luction to review and monitor the implementation of ourrecommendations, and to
verify that the recommendations have been appropriately interpreted. Significant design
changes may require additional analysis or modifications to the recommendations
presented herein. We recommend on-site observation of excavations and foundation
bearing strata and testing of structural fill by a representative of the geotechnical
engineer.
If you have any questions or need further assistance, please let us know.
Respectfully Submitted,

As requested, Hepwotih-Pawlak Geotechnical Inc. has prepared an Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) design for the subject property. The desin is attached with this letter. Prior to installation of the OWTS you must obtain the required permit from the Garfield County Building Department. Once the permit is obtained you may commence construction of the OWTS. Garfield County requires that an As-Built evaluation of engineered OWTS designs be performed by the design engineer. The AsBuilt evaluation fees have been included in our professional services agreement to you dated August 26, 2010. The As-Built evaluation fee assumes one site visit. Additional site visits will increase the cost of the As-Built evaluation.
We should be contacted to perfonn the As-Built evaluation a minimum of 48 hours before you are ready for the evaluation. Prior to evaluation, all system components should be installed including: sewer pipe, cleanouts, effluent pipe, septic tank, inlet and outlet tees, Distribution Box, Infiltrator chambers and distribution piping. No components of the OWTS should be backfilled prior to our performing the As"built evaluation.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
Sincerely, HEPWORTH - PAWLAK GEOTECHNICAL, INC.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF STUDY
As requested, Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. has designed an On-site Wastewater
Treatment System (OWTS) for the proposed greenhouse to be located at 5454A on
County Road 346 in Garfield County, Colorado. The study was conducted in accordance
with our agreement for professional services to Eagle Springs Organic, dated August 26,
2010. We concurrently performed an OWTS design for a second greenhouse on the
property dated August 31,2010, Job No. 410 167B. The data obtained and our OWTS
design recommendations based on the proposed construction and subsurface conditions
encountered are presented in this report.
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION
The subject greenhouse will be located on Tract 2 and is the eastern of the two proposed.
The greenhouse will be approximately I acre in size and have 20 workers. The building
will have a dirt floor and we understand grading for the structure will consist of shallow
cuts and fills. Water service will be supplied by an on-site water well.
SITE CONDITIONS
The project Tract 2 site is about 88 acres in size and located on a relatively flat mesa to
the south of County Road 346, southwest of Silt. The ground surface in the proposed
building area is gently rolling with a slight slope down to the north. An irrigation ditch
runs through the property and is located north and southwest of the proposed building
area.
PERCOLATION TESTING
Hepworth-Pawlak Geotechnical previously conducted a subsoil study for design of
foundations at the site and presented our findings in a report dated June 30, 2010, Job No.
I 10 ISlA The study included percolation testing at the site of the proposed OWTS. The
Job No. 410 167A ~tech
- 2-
locations of the profile pit (Profile Pit 1) and three percolation test holes (P-1, P-2 and P-
3) are shown on the attached Figure 1.
The subsoils encountered iu the profile pit, below about 1 foot of topsoil, consisted of
sandy silty clay that extended down to the pit depth of 8 feet. The three percolation tests
were performed iu the natural subsoils at depths rangiug from 32 to 36 iuches. The
percolation tests results iudicated an average percolation rate of37 miuutes per iuch. The
subsoil conditions and percolation test results are provided iu our previous report.
OWTS ANALYSIS
Based on the subsurface conditions encountered and the percolation test results, the tested
area is suitable for an OWTS utiliziug the shallow soils for the treatment and dispersal of
effluent. A site plan showiug the proposed OWTS and greenhouse, and the miuimum
horizontal setback distances of site features relative to the OWTS components, is shown
on Figure 1. The OWTS was designed for a total of twenty employees workiug a
standard eight-hour shift. All materials and iustallation should meet the requirements of
the current Colorado State Board ofHealth's OWTS Regulations.
SEPTIC TANK
A concrete 1, 000 gallon, two-chamber, Copeland Concrete septic tank, or equivalent, will
be used for primary treatment of sewage from the residence. The second chamber of the
septic tank shall be equipped with an effluent filter. Sewage will gravity feed from the
proposed greenhouse to the septic tank and effluent will be gravity fed to a proposed
distribution box with one iulet and three outlets. The effluent will then be gravity fed
equally to the absorption trenches. A copy of the tank detail from Copeland Concrete has
been provided as an attachment.
If the septic tank access riser lids will be iustalled at grade, with no backfill cover, then
the lids should be iusulated with foam iusulation board to provide frost protection. The
sewer pipe iulet tee iu the first chamber of the septic tank should be iustalled beneath the
Job No. 410 167A GJill1tech
- 3 -
access lid ofthe first chamber of the septic tank so that it can be reached for service
should it become clogged. The PVC handle on the effluent filter should be extended up
to within reach of the second chamber access riser lid. This will allow for easy access
and maintenance of the filter. Approximately 2 feet of soil backfill cover should be
placed over the top ofthe septic tank to allow for easy access and frost protection. For
maintenance reasons, deep tank installations should be avoided and we should be
contacted to re-evaluate our design should it appear that a deep tank installation involving
more than 4 feet ofbackfill soil over the top of the septic tank may be required.
SEWER AND EFFLUENT PIPING
The sewer line from the proposed residence to the septic tank should not be less than the
diameter of the building drain and not less than 4 inches in diameter and will service all
levels of the proposed structure. Soil backfill beneath the sewer pipe must be adequately
bedded and compacted to prevent settlement of the pipe. The sewer pipe should be
installed in landscape areas with at least 2 feet of soil backfill covering the pipe, or the
pipe should be insulated on the top and sides with 2 inch thick rigid foam insulation board
for frost protection. Beneath driven surfaces we recommend that Schedule 40 PVC sewer
pipe be used and the pipe be insulated if it will be installed with less than 4 feet of
backfill soil cover.
We recommend the use of Schedule 40 PVC pipe between the greenhouse and the septic
tank, though this is not required by local regulations. The portion of the sewer pipe
extending from 5 feet outside the building foundation should have a slope of at least 2%.
Cleanout pipe(s) should be installed in the sewer line adjacent fi"om the building
· foundation, adjacent to the inlet of the septic tank, where the sewer pipe bends at 90
degrees or more and at least one cleanout should be installed at least every 1 00 linear feet
of non-pressurized sewer or effluent pipe throughout its length. We recommend that a
straight section of pipe be installed between the building fouodation and the septic tank.
Any required 90 degree bends in the sewer pipe should be accomplished through the use
of a series of 45 degree smooth elbows or a 90 degree long sweep to help prevent
clogging of the pipe.

ABSORPTION AREA
The soil absorption area is designed to be 382 square feet and will consist of three
absorption trenches containing Infiltrator Quick 4 Standard chambers. Each absorption
trench will contain thirteen (13) chambers for a total of thirty-nine (39) chambers. A 6
foot minimum separation of undisturbed earth must be maintained between the edge of
one trench to the edge of the adjacent trench. Each chamber was given 9.87 square feet
of absorption area per Garfield County guidelines. A 50% reduction in field size was
applied for use ofinfiltrator Quick 4 Standard chambers in a trench configuration.
Absorption area calculations are shown on Figure 2. The absorption trenches should be.
excavated to the approximate depths shown on Figure 4. Care must be taken during
installation to ensure that the soils exposed in the bottom and sidewalls of the trench
excavation are not compacted. Once the trench excavations are complete they should be
left open, as needed, to allow the soils to air dry prior to placement of the chambers.
The on-site soils can be used as backfill over the chambers and should be graded to
deflect surface water and precipitation away from the absorption area. We recommend
the soil backfill be re-vegetated as soon as possible with a native grass mix or suitable
equivalent. It is important not to plant large vegetation or vegetation with invasive roots
in and around the absorption area and piping as the roots may cause future damage.
Combination air vent/inspection ports should be installed at each end of each absorption
trench. The ports should be constructed of 4 inch diameter PVC pipe installed into the
knockouts provided on the tops of the Infiltrator chambers. The ports should extend a
minimum of 8 inches above the ground surface and should have ventilated removable
caps. The absorption area chambers and distribution piping layout is shown on Figure 3.
A distribution box with at least 3 outlets and I inlet will be used to equally distribute
effluent to the absorption trenches. We recommend that the soil beneath the distribution
box be adequately compacted to prevent settlement of the box or the box may be set on a
small level concrete pad. It is critical that the box be installed level and that the
Job No. 410 167A G~tech
- 5-
distribution lateral outlets are at equal elevations to ensure that effluent is equally
distributed to each trench. The distribution box should be installed within a sprinkler
head box, or equivalent, to allow for easy access and maintenance and should be properly
insulated with blue board, or equivalent, to prevent possible freezing.
All materials used and installation methods should meet the requirements of the Colorado
State Board of Health's Guidelines on On-site Wastewater Treatment Systems.
SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE
No free water was encountered in the profile pit or percolation test holes excavated at the
site when observed on June 22, 2010 or when checked one day later. It is our opinion that
a subsurface drain will not be required. If free water is encountered in any excavations on
the site we should be notified to re-evaluate the need for a subsurface drain to protect the
absorption area.
OWTS MAINTENANCE
The OWTS will require maintenance. The level of maintenance will vary with the
complexity ofthe system and water use habits of the users. We recommend that fats, oils,
bath oils, greases, paint, solids, water softener backwash solution, water from hot tubs and
other constituents that can clog and foul collection and disposal equipment are not
disposed of in the greenhouse drains. The absorption area and any areas directly up
gradient of it should not be watered by lawn irrigation systems or other means as the soils
may become hydraulically overloaded. Septic tanks should be pumped whenever the
sludge occupies Y:. of the liquid capacity of the first chamber of the septic tank In
addition, the effluent filter should be checked for clogging at least once per year and
cleaned as necessary. We recommend that an operation and maintenance manual be
developed for the OWTS. The OWTS should be operated and maintained as stipulated in
the manual. If you desire our services, we can prepare the operation and maintenance
manual.

LIMITATIONS
This design has been conducted in accordance with generally accepted engineering
principles and practices in this area at this time. We make no warranty either express or
implied. The recommendations submitted in this report are based upon the data obtained
from the profile pit and percolation test holes excavated at the approximate locations
indicated on Figure 1 and to the depths indicated in the subsoil study report, the proposed
type of construction, and our experience in the area. Our findings include interpolation
and extrapolation of the subsurface conditions identified at the profile pit and percolation
test holes and variations in the subsurface conditions may not become evident until
excavation is performed. If conditions encountered during construction appear different
from those described in this report, we should be notified at once so re-evaluation of the
recormnendations may be made.
Based on site reconnaissance, it is our opinion that the designed location of the OWTS
does not violate any setback requirements of the current Colorado State Board of Health
Guidelines on On-site Wastewater Treatment Systems. We recormnend that the position
of the OWTS components, proposed greenhouse, existing water well and setback
requirements be verified in the field by a Professional Land Surveyor licensed in the State
of Colorado.
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use by our client for the OWTS design
submittal process. We are not responsible for technical interpretations by others of our
information. Garfield County requires that an As-Built evaluation of engineered
OWTS designs be performed by the design engineer. We should be contacted to
perform the As-Built evaluation at least 48 hours before you are ready for the
evaluation. Prior to evaluation, all OWTS components should be installed
including: sewer pipe, effluent pipe, septic tank, inlet and outlet tees, Infiltrator
chambers, cleanouts, distribution box and effluent distribution lines. No
components of the system should be backfilled prior to our performing the As-built
evaluation.
