The mitigation plan and the erosion and sediment control plan can be approved when the
following documents have been received;
1. a copy of the recorded plat for shared access easements,
2. a copy of the army corps permit,
3. an original application with an original signature by the current owner of the property.
The applications I have on file are signed by Scott Collins and John Grady.
This project will need to be bonded and receive a grading permit. The bond amounts are $35,320
for erosion and sediment control, and $50,620 for mitigation plantings.

A. Mitigation Plan (WP0201200083)
1. Approval of the subdivision plat guaranteeing shared access with the adjacent lot is required. Show the
access easement on the plan to match the required plat.
2. Please see the attached graphic for the mitigation area to be considered, as discussed at the Board of
Supervisors Meeting. Please revise the plan accordingly, together with any additional areas due to
redesign of the bridge area. The area for the driveway to the adjacent lot should be included now, as
this will be additional buffer disturbance, and the bridge and much of the driveway is now placed on
this lot.
3. The bridge abutments must be designed on this plan. They should be placed sufficiently out of the
channel so that channel work is not necessary. Typically this is the measurable overbank, or the 2 -10
year storm flows, which need to be computed. Together with the driveway and work area, this will set
the amount of disturbance and mitigation measures in this area. The plan provided with the building
permit (Alexcomm & Assoc., Inc.) appears to place abutments in the channel without these
considerations.
4. Please provide the computation that set the bridge deck height.
5. Following the standards of 17 -320D, the deck and abutments need to clear the 10year storm, and the
wingwalls should accommodate this flow. Please provide these computations and shown these limits
on the plan.
6. In the area of the bridge, please provide a F =20' scale so the grading and placement of the wingwalls
can be more specific. Define the actual existing channel in this area on the plan and show the expected
limits of the design storms. The F =60' scale drawing is simply not decipherable for these details.
7. As part of any channel work for scour protection, armoring, wingwalls, etc., the debris in the channel
needs to be cleaned up, and this needs to be noted on the plan. The receiving end of the channel
should be restored to receive a flow which may now be faster from narrowing in the bridge. The
mitigation plan should include measures to establish this transition to the shallow end of the lake.
8. The channel from Ambrose Commons Drive will need to be routed around the abutment wingwall.
9. The topography does not appear accurate, and there are already wooded areas where mitigation is
proposed (see attached graphic). The mitigation plantings should not be in already established areas.
10. The plan must include a specific planting plan for the mitigation areas, in addition to the previous
abutment placement and channel transitions. Plants should be not be all pines, but a native mix of
shrubs, understory trees and canopy trees, following the DCR Riparian Buffers Modification and
Mitigation Guidance Manual.

11. Provide the Army Corps Nationwide Permit and approval of joint permit applications.
C. Erosion Control Plan (WPO201200083)
1. The silt fence is shown running down the slope, which is ineffective. This appears to be a diversion
dike, and a silt trap is needed at the downhill side next to the proposed wingwall.
2. Expand the disturbed area to provide room to work on the bridge and abutments.
3. Provide ditch matting and check dams on the uphill side of the driveway.
4. Provide measures for the driveway up to the building area on the plan. This area's runoff may all run
down the driveway to the lake.
5. Provide a stream crossing on the plan for construction (USC), or provide a pump - around plan detail.

RE: Mountain Valley WPO Plan- Driveway Access for lots 36&37 (WPO 2012 00083)
Thank you for your comments on the project referenced above. Please let this letter supplement the
revised plans in response to your comments dated April 3rd, 2013.
A. Mitigation Plan
1. It is acknowledged the approval of the subdivision plat is required for the use of the shared
access.The access easement shown on the plans is consistent with the access easement
generated by Roudabush and Gale.
2. During a meeting on April 11th, 2013 between Mr. Brooks and Mr. Murray of Collins Engineering
it was determined the offsite mitigation impacts plan could be removed and the total mitigation
required for this development would be the sum of the previous buffer impacts to the south
(9,938sf)and the impacts resulting from the proposed shared driveway associated with this
plan.The mitigation plan was revised to show the total buffer impacts(33,061sf)and the total
required mitigation (66,122sf).
3. The plans have been revised and the bridge design shown on sheet 5 takes into account the 2-
and 10-year storm events and no longer encroaches into the channel banks. During the meeting
mentioned above it was determined the 10-year water surface elevation, calculated using
Manning's equation since the downstream pond's approved water surface elevation does not
back up to the bridge crossing location,would set the minimum bridge elevation. The simulated
10-year high mark is 550.98'and the bridge elevation is 556.00'. During this meeting it was also
determined the limits of the 2-year storm event would dictate whether or not riprap was
required around the bridge and its abutment wing walls.The bridge was lengthen to 28'to
accommodate the simulated 2-year storm event, ensuring it did not impact the bridge and
reducing the risk of erosion.Thus a riprap transition is no longer required.
4. Computations revealing the simulated 10-year high mark have been provided with the plans.
5. The calculations submitted show the 10-year storm event's water surface elevation passing
beneath the bridge.The plans were also revised on sheet 4 to show the limits of the 2-and 10-
year storm events, both of which pass under the bridge.The 2-year storm passes underneath
the bridge without impacting the wing walls.
6. The plans have been revised on sheet 4 to show the requested detail.
7. A note has been added to the stream crossing detail mandating the channel be cleaned after
construction and any debris be removed. During the April 11th meeting it was determined if the
2-year storm event did not encroach into the limits of the recently lengthen bridge then a riprap
transition would not be required.As such,the second half of this comment is no longer
applicable.
8. The plans have been revised to show the ditch outfalling into the existing riprap channel,around
the abutment wing wall,via a riprap lined transition.
9. The topography now more accurately reflects current conditions and the tree line has been
updated in accordance with a site visit conducted on April 11th. Mitigation plantings are outside
the limits of the tree lines.
10. The mitigation plan has been revised to follow the DCR's Riparian Buffers Modification and
Mitigation Guidance Manual. Also, in accordance with the meeting held on April 11th the four
mitigation areas shown now have more specific planting requirements for each of the areas to
assist the contractor and inspector during the installation of the plantings.
11. This comment is acknowledged and the applicant is currently seeking this permit.
B. Erosion Control Plan
1. The plans have been revised to show a sediment trap at the bottom of the driveway,
adjacent to the proposed wing wall. During the meeting described above, it was determined
sediment trap calculations were not required to be submitted with the plans and the size
shown would be adequate. The silt fence was alsomodified and is now shown downslope
of the proposed diversion.
2. The limits of disturbance have been revised and are consistent with the direction provided
by Engineering on April 11th
3. Check dams and blanket matting have been added to the plans for the uphill side of the
driveway.
4. A sediment trap is now proposed at the base of the driveway to intercept upslope runoff
directed to it via a diversion with silt fence. It was agreed upon the proposed sediment trap
would not require calculations and the trap proposed is sufficiently sized.
5. The plans have been revised to include a utility stream crossing detail.
If you have any questions regarding the proposed plans please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Graham Murray, PE

Jay,
I’ve confirmed that there is an agreement for the two biofilters on Lot 1. The County will need to perform a final
inspection to confirm they can be released. Our main concern will be have they been maintained.
Since there isn’t a SWM agreement for the other 4 biofilters, and assuming the existing owners will not execute an
agreement, you have the option to submit a swm plan amendment to abandon these 4 biofilters and purchase nutrient
credits in their place. Before the bond can be released, minor erosion at one (or more?) of the facilities will need to be
repaired, but once repaired and the credits have been purchased, the bond can be released.
Don’t hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance.
Thanks,
Frank

Mr. Jessup:
I am working on releasing the road bond only. I am copying Frank Pohl so he can address the status of the wpo bond.

Ana,
I understand from Scott that the county engineers reached out to him last week not long after this e-mail. If I
understand the process correctly, as builts for both the road and the storm water were submitted to the county and it is
up to your engineers to schedule a time for a site visit to confirm that those submissions match up with the work that
has been done. Once that has been confirmed the bonds can be released, are my assumptions correct?
Since we went through this process with VDOT last year and they have accepted the road I am hopeful that no further
work will be required.
The reason I am inquiring about this is that those bonds are secured by cash in account at Va National Bank which was
provided by my late Mother’s estate and we are trying to tie up all the loose ends to get her estate settled in the near
future.
I would appreciate it if you could let me know if there are other steps in the process that need to be completed and
give me a rough idea of when you think we will reach a conclusion that will allow the realease of those bonds.
Thank you,
Jay Jessup

Ana-
I hope you had a great holiday. I just wanted to confirm that you have received our request for Mountain
Valley that we submitted before the holidays for the bond release of the road bond and the SWM/E&S bond.
Thanks.
Scott
