WP02019-00015 (Also, WP0201500032-, SDP198800003 — Forest Lakes Townhouses Sec. "A")
County Code section 17-410 and Virginia Code §62.1-44.15:34 requires the VSMP authority to act on any
VSMP permit by issuing a project approval or denial. This project is denied for reasons listed, below. The
application may be resubmitted for approval if all of the items below are satisfactorily addressed. The
VSMP application content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-401.
General
1. Plan is virtually identical with WP0201500032. Please ref. WP0201500032 for background. (Rev. 1)
Addressed.
2. Albemarle County Code 17-411 indicates WP0201500032 is deemed withdrawn. Please see 17-411.B.
3. A permit fee is required with a new VSMP Application, half at time application is submitted ($1,350).
4. Please submit $1,350 VSMP permit application fee. (Rev. 1) Addressed. Fee was enclosed.
5. Review comments below are intended to expedite approval as Applicant submits fee and revises plan for
eventual VSMP/WPO plan approval.
6. Note: Thirty months have passed since last plan submission. Current review identifies limited areas of plan,
SWPPP, or calculations that require revision, update, or clarification. Albemarle is alert to issue of fairness
yet must ensure procedures important to DEQ and county are followed.
7. 15 Oct 2018 initial site plan Engineering review comments (SDP201800071 *) include this (item 2b.):
2b. Text, email, Engineering to Planning (6/18/2016 2:11 PM -also RMS docs, SDP201500023):
"(SDP201500023) —Engineering has No Objection to FSP design. Engineering comments addressed with
this or prior submittal. FSP Approval requires ROAD Plan Approval, and requires that roads (Lois Lane,
Landon Lane) be built or bonded. ROAD Plan is not approved. FSP Approval requires that WPO be
approved and bonded. Planning coordinator should confirm that SWM Maintenance Agreements have been
signed, that project has received VPDES Permit coverage letter from DEQ. Please confirm WPO status
with Max Greene, Engineering Div."
* Note: As with WP0201500032, Initial and Final site plans for this project dating to 2015 presented similar design as
the current new initial site plan SDP201800071 (required once 2015 plans expired due to plan inactivity). Planning is

reviewing SDP201800071 as a new project. Engineering must consider the WPO plan with care. In fairness to
Applicant, Engineering limits comments to a minimum. In certain cases, comments request revision, update, or
clarification of items that were reviewed without comment in 2015 and 2016. This is a new VSMP /WPO Application.
Review requirements have not changed appreciably, and blue highlight items above persist as items required for final
site plan approval or WPO plan approval.
8. Once the $1,350 due with Application is received, a new application number will be assigned. Once a new
WPO# is assigned, please include WPO# in plan title. (Rev. 1) Plan is assigned file # WP0201900015.
Please revise plan title to include WP0201900015 (sheet 1).
9. Prepare SWPPP similar to SWPPP prepared for WP0201500032, which used Albemarle County template.
Experience with DEQ indicates certain items typical of a SWPPP are relatively more important to the state.
The county template reflects this. Current submittal abandons template in favor of a proprietary format.
SWPPP dated 11/28/18 distributes information in atypical fashion, which may introduce issues for
inspectors, owner, county, and contractor. For quickest approval, revert to county template. If Applicant
opts not to use county template, please ensure SWPPP includes ESC plan sheets (Sec. 4 /template); I I" x
17" SWPPP Exhibit (Sec. 6); that Appendix H (equivalent to template See. 9, Certification), is signed; and
that the Pollution Prevention Certification is signed (no template equivalent). (Rev. 1) Partially
addressed. As follow-up: (Rev. 2) Addressed.
a. Revise Sequence ofMaiorActivities to reflect ESC Plan review comment request for sequence
revisions —ref. ESC Plan comment, item 3.
b. Name of receivingwaters: aters: List Trib. to Powell Creek. Provide 8- or 12-digit HUC for Powell Crk.
c. Provide SWPPP Exhibit
Provide 11" x 17" Exhibit. Show solid/non-hazardous waste dumpster; sanitary facilities (port -a John);
solvent -paint storage; concrete wash -out; on -site fuel storage. DEQ, during periodic inspections of
active projects, instructs on importance of an Exhibit that shows location of these features. All should
drain to containment. For example, silt fence downstream of port -a j ohn. Concrete wash -out,
dumpster draining to trapping device (lined, in case of concrete wash -out). On -site fuel storage berm
with 10ml liner sized to hold fuel volume + 2 yr. storm event. .PDF samples available. Exhibit is not
intended as a detailed design, but to show containment and locations which may change over time.
Exhibit is a construction aid and resource protection/inspection management tool.
d. Update Construction Plans, Appendix R, once all comments addressed.
10. Provide copy of recorded Stormwater Management Facility Maintenance Agreement that affirms owner of
property to be developed has pre-existing arrangement with Forest Lakes HOA to utilize Arbor Lake for
stormwater management purposes for Timberwood Square. Please furnish bk.-pg. reference to recorded
SWM Facility Maint. Agreement, or enter a Maintenance Agreement with Albemarle County. Ref. 17-415.
(Rev. 1) Not addressed. (Rev. 2) Not addressed. .PDF of document county provided applicant (for ref.)
is a recorded Maintenance Agreement between Forest Lakes and Albemarle, not an Agreement between
Forest Lakes and Applicant. An agreement between Forest Lakes and Applicant is required prior to VSMP
Plan approval.

Sediment traps require a stone weir at release point. Ref. VESCH standard detail shown on sheet 6.
16. Sheet 7:
a. Provide buoyancy calculations: 6' x 1.5' SB-1 primary spillway riser base. (Rev. 1) Withdrawn.
Applicant response: `The spillway riser base has a design highwater of 477.1 with a riser structure
at 476.5. There is insufficient depth above this structure to worry about this structure floating.
You withdrew this comment at a meeting with Bob Hauser and Frank Pohl.'
b. Revise SB-1 Calculations:
i. Preliminary design, 11: provide Q25 routing to support design high water=479.55'. (Rev.
1) Partially addressed. Applicant response: `The design high water has been updated
with this design. No routing is required for this number. Plate 3.14-8 provides the head,
in feet above the riser structure of a 48" riser that a 25-yr storm will have. Since the basin
will have no emergency spillway the 48" riser must pass the 25-yr storm through the
principal spillway. 17.9 cfs gives ahead of 0.6' resulting in the Design High Water to be
477. L' As follow-up: Provide Q25 calculation (Albemarle calculates 23.72 cfs (ciA: 0.6 x
6.84* x 5.78 Ac.). If Q25-peak increases, revise design as needed.
(* NOAA Atlas 14, Charlottesville /25-yr event)
ii. Revise distance from dewatering orifice to C/O level; should be 1.0. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
iii. Required principal spillway capacity appears to be 9.2 cfs (ref. Runoff), but is listed as
5.7 cfs at item 15 (principal spillway design). Revise design to ensure the principal
spillway passes the peak rate of runoff from the basin drainage area for a 2-yr storm event
(ref. VESCH). (Rev. 1) Partially addressed. As follow-up: comment ref. to 2-yr event
is irrelevant. Please see 16.b.i., above. Check Q25-peak, revise design as needed.
iv. Using Q peak2-yr=9.7cfs and VESCH, it appears (item 17) riser diameter should be 21".
Confirm 24" DIA is the smallest diameter required to pass Q peak2-yr. (Rev. 1) Partially
addressed. See item 16.b.i., and 16.b.iii., above. Revise as needed.

Engineering plan review staff are available from 2-4 PM on Thursdays, should you require a meeting to discuss this
review.
Process
After approval, plans will need to be bonded. The bonding process is begun by submitting a bond estimate request
form and fee to the Department of Community Development. One of the plan reviewers will prepare estimates and
check parcel and easement information based on the approved plans. The County's Management Analyst will
prepare bond agreement forms, which will need to be completed by the owner and submitted along with cash,
certificates or sureties for the amounts specified. The agreements will need to be approved and signed by the County
Attorney and County Engineer. This may take 2-4 weeks to obtain all the correct signatures and forms.
Stormwater Management Facilities Maintenance agreements will also need to be completed and recorded. The
County's Management Analyst or other staff will prepare the forms and check for ownership and signature
information. The completed forms will need to be submitted along with court recording fees.
After bonding and agreements are complete, county staff will need to enter project information in a DEQ database
for state application processing. DEQ will review the application information based on local VSMP authority
approval. At this time, the DEQ portion of the application fees will need to be paid directly to the state. For fastest
processing, this is done electronically with the emails provided on the application. DEQ should notify applicants
with instructions on how to pay fees. When DEQ approves the application, they will issue a permit coverage letter.
This should be copied to the county.
After DEQ coverage is issued, via the coverage letter, the County can hold a pre -construction conference. Applicants
will need to complete the request for a pre -construction conference form, and pay the remainder of the application
fee. The form identifies the contractor and responsible land disturber, and the fee remaining to be paid. This will be
checked by county staff, and upon approval, a pre -construction conference will be scheduled with the County
inspector. At the pre -construction conference, should everything proceed satisfactorily, a joint VSMP and grading
permit will be issued by the County so that work may begin.
County forms can be found on the county website forms center under engineering;
