Colorado Springs septic & civil engineering
Black Forest and Teller County acreage — septic, wells, and expansive soils.
Around Colorado Springs the interesting work is outside the sewer line: Black Forest, Falcon, and Teller County acreage where an OWTS, a well, and expansive clay all have to be resolved on the same plan.
We design onsite wastewater systems to El Paso and Teller county standards, plus grading, drainage, and driveway access for rural residential and small commercial parcels.
What we design in Colorado Springs
- OWTS design and repair for acreage lots
- Grading, drainage, and detention for rural sites
- Expansive soil and steep driveway access design
- Wildfire-aware site access and defensible layout
- Water storage, cistern, and off-grid utility design
Local code & permitting notes
- El Paso County Public Health permits OWTS under Colorado Regulation 43.
- Teller County requires engineered designs on most steep or shallow-soil parcels.
- Percolation or soil profile testing sets the long-term acceptance rate (LTAR) for sizing.
Code references are summaries for planning. Final requirements come from the permitting authority at the time of submittal.
