Reviewer: John Anderson
WP0201800020 —Amendment #1
1. Provide Narrative that explains purpose, scope and effect of Amendment. If Applicant has outlined
amendment via email, please remind us. While Albemarle, Applicant, and contractor met perhaps six
weeks ago to discuss need for design information to inform contractor re. ESC measures as site transitions
from existing to approved final grades, this Amendment appears unrelated to that discussion, or meeting.
Please see request for additional information and clarification concerning purpose of Amendment, below.
2. Provide cover letter. Cover letter should briefly discuss change proposed with VSMP /WPO Plan
Amendment, including:
a. Effect (if any) on:
i. ESC measures
ii. SWM facilities
iii. VaRRM .xls — state change
iv. SWM quality calculations, or compliance
v. SWM quantity calculations, or compliance
b. Revised ESC measures, or revised SWM facilities.
c. Revised VARIOM230 Registration Statement
i. Current /permitted Est. Area to be disturbed =9.90 Ac.
ii. Amended Plan Registration Statement =9.95 Ac.
iii. Show additional area of disturbance (cloud revision)
3. Provide an Amendment Plan cover /title sheet that includes:
a. Plant title: Keswick Hall Additions and Site Improvements —Amendment
b. Approved plan # (WP0201800020) being amended
c. Date of initial plan approval (12/20/18)
d. Date of Amendment submittal (4/29/19)
e. Date of 1 It
Amendment revision
f. Purpose, scope and effect of Amendment
Correlate cover letter and title sheet descriptions of change to plan sheet index. The first 15 sheets of the
Amendment plan (include or) show cloud revisions to:
a. Weir plate
b. Culvert pipes
c. VaRRM .xls calculations
d. Letter of Nutrient Credit Availability
Engineering Review Comments

e. All LD-204, LD-229, LD-347 tables /values shown in cloud revisions. Unless all values have
changed, revise clouds to indicate only those values that have changed.
f. The first 4 sheets of the amended plan show pre- /post -developed DAs and flow paths, but without
cloud revisions. Confirm no change to pre- /post -developed DAs or flow paths. If no change,
remove these sheets from Amendment plan. If sheets are relevant to Amendment, explain
relevance (cover letter, title /cover sheet).
5. Continue cloud revisions on title /cover sheet.
6. Examine sheets 16-42 of digital submittal. Remove sheets unrelated to WPO bioretention plantings. Retain
landscape sheets that present plan view or planting schedule information for bioretention basins, and revise
Amendment title /cover sheet index to ref. only those L-series sheets required to be included with WPO
Plan Amendment. For these sheets, use cloud revisions to indicate new or revised plan information.
Provide landscape narrative with cover letter, and on title /cover sheet. Remaining L-series sheets should
be removed from WPO plan amendment. Recall that the project ESC inspector created a more portable
inspection plan set from WP0201800020, to include details relevant to inspections. This is similar. A 42-
sheet WPO Amendment is unwieldly, and appears to include extraneous information.
7. Engineering intends to review digital resubmittal within 3 calendar weeks once purpose and scope of
Amendment are emphasized via condensed, revised Amendment plan submittal, and cover letter.
8. Note: Fee to review an amendment to an Approved plan is modest ($200), and correlates to a lower level of
effort. Additional clarification may help streamline approval process for county and Applicant, alike.
Please feel free to call if any questions, or if you would like to meet to discuss review comments. Thank
you
