Septic and grease trap service in Erie

Erie has grown faster than almost anywhere on the north Front Range, and the town sewer system has expanded with the subdivisions. But Erie is a large town boundary wrapped around a lot of open agricultural land, and that land is still on septic.

The town also straddles the Boulder and Weld county line, which means two different health departments with two different sets of onsite wastewater requirements depending on which side your parcel falls.

The systems out on the county ground here are mostly older farmstead installations serving houses that have been added onto over the years. Undersized tanks and tired absorption fields are the norm rather than the exception.

Local conditions

Local context for Erie property owners

County
Boulder County and Weld County
Septic or sewer
The Town of Erie provides sewer service to its developed subdivisions. Onsite septic systems serve the agricultural and rural residential parcels within and around the town boundary, split between Boulder County and Weld County jurisdiction.
Soil and site conditions
The area is clay loam farm ground with slow percolation and some sandier deposits near drainages. Slow soil means larger absorption fields and less tolerance for high daily flow.
Permit authority
Boulder County Public Health handles onsite wastewater permitting on the Boulder County side, including transfer of title inspection. The Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment handles the Weld County side under its own process.
Typical system age
Rural systems around Erie commonly date to the 1960s and 1970s farmstead era. Many now serve larger households than they were designed for after decades of additions.
Response time
Erie is about thirty minutes northeast of our Westminster yard on the north corridor route.

County septic permit rules that apply here

Septic permits, inspections, and transfer of title rules are set by the county, not the city. Read the guide for your county before you file anything.

Named areas and county land nearby

Plenty of the ground around Erie sits outside city limits, where the county permits the septic system and the nearest named area is the better landmark. We work these on the same routes.
