HomeMy WebLinkAboutWPO201800073 Review Comments WPO VSMP 2018-11-091. Avoid wetlands to extent practicable; provide exhibit/s showing roadway CL shift to the west to avoid
wetlands to extent practicable.
2. Stormwater Management Note, C0.0 references "Stomrwater Mangement /BMP Analysis and Floodplain
Study for the UVA Research Park at Northfork" by Dewberry & Davis, October 1997." The note
continues: `The Research Park has been master planned for Stormwater Management for the future build -
out of the research park. The Majority of this road project drains to the large wet pond to the east that was
designed and constructed to handle quantity and quality for the future build -out of the research park
including this road connection.' End note.

Also/same link: "UVA Research Park, Town Centers III and IV, Engineering Calculations," prepared for UVA Real Estate
Foundation by Frank D. Cox, Jr., PE /Cox Company, 220 E. High St., Charlottesville —Nov. 30, 2006, Rev. March 8, 2007.
This document appears highly -relevant and useful to VMSP /WPO Plan submittal. Review and include salient information
from this document. See Exhibit 1, beginning p. 18 of .PDF. Also: pre -development drainage map, p. 7; a road design not
identical with design proposed with WPO201800073, p. 8-9; etc.)
a. Title sheet notation does not of itself sufficiently address plan requirements if compared with VA
Administrative Code stormwater quality or quantity regulations. It is unclear if Applicant is
requesting Engineering accept existence of a study as sufficient basis for issuing a VSMP VPDES
permit under 9VAC25-870-48, without additional detail or context, including: narrative, data,
routings, pond plan /profile, As -built for Ex. large wet pond, drainage maps, calculations, etc.
Engineering recommends Timmons take a conventional approach and piece together information;
that is, provide rationale that guides plan review, including whether 9VAC25-870-48 is basis of
VSMP /WPO Plan Application (Grandfathering). Please provide reference to a ZMA, SP, SDP, or
WPO approved prior to July 1, 2012 that explicitly includes BMPs designed to meet then -current
stormwater management requirements and included with the Dewberry 1997 study. The reference
study is twenty-one years old. There are few immediately recognizable approved ZMAs, SDPs,
SPs, or WPOs in Albemarle County's online document system (CV) that align with the 1997 study
(WP02006-00087 does). Timmons must provide information sufficient for Engineering to
approve WP0201800073 without pulling past plans, many of which are listed in CV as not
approved. 9VAC25-870-48, -93 /94 (Definitions /Applicability), -95 (General), -96 (Water
ualit ), -97 (Stream Channel Erosion), and -98 (Flooding) likely govern proposed roadway
construction. Engineering recommends query CV (or visit CDD to request /consider and review)
the following possibly relevant Applications (listed by type, then chronologically):
i. ZMA2005-00002
ii. SP2008-00062
iii. SDP1997-00046

3. Remove road plan sheets from VSMP /WPO Plan, including: C1.1 - C1.3, C4.4 - C4.9; C6.0, C6.1, C7.0,
C8.0 - C8.3: these sheets present road plan details.
4. SWPPP
a. Sign Sec. 1, VPDES Certification (Print, sign, title, date)
b. Lat./Lon. provided appear to be a location in Louisa County. Please revise Lat./Lon.
c. Sec. 5: Provide SWM Plan
d. Sec. 9, Signed Certification: please sign
e. Revise inspection log to provide space for description of inspection observations —see image,
below
EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL FACILITIES INSPECTED:
(Inspections shall be conducted according to Part IIF2 of the
Permit. However, if the discharges of stormwater from
construction activities are to surface waters identified as
imparied, inspections shall be conducted according to Part
IB4d.)

5. Copy Construction Record Drawing (As -built) Policy to plans:

neering_and WPO Forms/WPO VSMP Construction Record Drawings Policy 23Mgy2014.pdf
C3.0
6. Stormwater Runoff Considerations: Expand to provide descriptive narrative connection to a prior -approved
site plan, special use permit, or water protection ordinance permit that positively confirms proposed
development meets state stormwater quality and quantity requirements.
7. Include note that requires Owner to obtain all required state or federal permits, including VDEQ Individual
Permit, VMRC General Permit, or US ACE Nationwide permit (wetland impacts), etc.
8. List special conditions of US ACE permit on the plans. Identify, number, and quantify area impact to
wetlands (SF). Identify wetland type/s using text, labels/notes, graphic symbols.
9. Include ACDSM Paved (construction entrance) Wash Rack detail. Measure required. See ACDSM, p. 8.
10. Define /specify slope stabilization seed mix (Ref. legend, C3.2).
11. C3.0 : It appears 2" d C3.0 (details) should be labeled sheet C3.1.
12. C3.1 (relabeled): Include stream diversion detail; for example, VESCH plate 3.25-1, or variation showing
sandbag dam /pump -around diversion
C2.0
13. Provide at least one hundred (100) Ex. contour labels. No legible contour labels appear to be shown. (It is
difficult verging on impossible to interpret existing conditions.)
14. Label development parcel TMP. Label each adjoining parcel with TMP#.
15. Provide Mitigation Plan for stream crossings (2:1 mitigation required). Label WPO buffer areas, if
multiple areas. Provide landscape schedule for each WPO buffer area.
16. Revise critical slopes labels; replace with managed or preserved steep slopes labels.
17. C3.2 — C3.5: Increase Ex. contour labels so legible.
C3.2
18. Label ST1 floor dimensions in plan view.
19. ST 1 design treats Max. limit, 3.0 Ac. Show 3.0 Ac. drainage area boundaries for this sediment trap.
20. ST1: Avoid wetlands. Relocate ST1 since this sediment trap discharges to downslope wetlands, by design.
This means, any event that exceeds capacity of ST1 will discharge sediment to wetlands, by design, which
may cause permanent or irrevocable and not incidental impact. Do not propose sediment trapping
measures upslope of or immediately adjacent to wetlands.
21. Relocate roadway if necessary to avoid and minimize wetland impacts. Alternatively, provide copy of
USACE Permit authorizing proposed wetland impacts.
22. Label dimensions 39 cy Culv-3 inlet protection to aid review, construction, and inspection.
23. Label Area (acreage) of Limits of Clearing and Grading, x.xx Ac.
24. Calculate velocity (Q2) for channel at bottom of future fill slope, upslope of Culv-3. Provide soil
stabilization, permanent riprap, or concrete conveyance channel as required for this channel.
25. Show, estimate, label area of wetland impacts (SF). Identify wetland type: emergent, riverine, palustrine.
26. List U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide permit (USAGE NWP-27 /other) issued for this project.
List date of permit issuance. VSMP /WPO cannot be approved without copy of current USACE permit
authorizing specific impacts to specific areas identified, shown and labelled on the VSMP /WPO plan.
27. Show wetland protective measures; for example, timber matting and fencing equivalent to tree protection,
for wetlands to be preserved and not authorized by USACE permit to be disturbed or impacted, either
temporarily or permanently, by project activity. Plans identify no wetlands to be preserved, except by
virtue of location outside LOD. Recommend wetland preservation as cornerstone of design. See other
comments on topic of impact avoidance and minimization, especially concerning Applicant need to acquire
and provide copy of relevant federal or state wetland, stream, or aquatic resource permits.
Design Calculations & Narrative, 9/24/18:
28. Culvert 1 Table breaks across 2 pages; reformat so visible as single sheet.
29. Culverts 1, 2, 3 design outfall velocity exceeds 10.0 fps. Include VESCH Yd Edit., plates 3.36-4 and 3.36-5
on plan sheet C3.0 or C3.1. Ensure labels, notes etc. identify locations requiring VESCH Std. & Spec.
3.36, and identify which We stabilization matting is required.
30. (RP comment) Max. outfall velocity is 15fps. Ref Drainage Plan checklist (drainage computations, p. 2).
Revise design such that outfall velocity for all culverts is < 15fps (Q2).
31. Provide outfall protection calculations. Ref. VESCH Std. & Spec. 3.18 plates 3.18-3 and /or 3.18-4.
32. Culvert 3 OP width 2 is insufficient. Width 1 =6.0' is likely adequate (ref. comment #31). Ref. VESCH.
