C-105
1. LS-seal obscures date; please ensure text is easily readable (April 19, 2018). (Rev. 1) Addressed.
2. Ex. 21" RCP to be removed appears in conflict with floor of sediment trap. —Elev. 501' is top of new 24"
RCP permanent (and bypass?) storm pipe =floor of ST. Revise sequence or sediment trap design on VSMP
/WP0201900047 to provide sufficient cover between floor of ST and crown of 24" RCP, and to preserve
integrity of pipe bedding for 24" RCP. Locating RCP directly beneath active sediment trap may
compromise pipe bedding unless ST is equipped with impermeable liner. If proposed 24" RCP is not a
bypass and will not be installed until the sediment trap is removed, please clarify via plan notes and
sequence /narrative. For the moment, proposed 24" RCP permanent storm line appears to be a `bypass' as
well that permits the 21" Ex. RCP to be removed. If review error /misunderstanding, please notify.
(Engineering intends to issue WP020100047 comments not later than Wed, 19-Feb.) (Rev. 1) Addressed.
Applicant response (8/20/20 letter): `The proposed sediment trap has been revised to remove the conflict
with the proposed 24" RCP bypass pipe.'
3. C-201: Note 11 requires slight text edit (references two bypass pipes, a possible error). (Rev. 1)
Addressed. Applicant response: `Note 8 describes that the proposed, re-routed 24" RCP bypass pipe must
be installed prior to removal of the existing 21" storm bypass pipe.'
C-301
4. Label curb types. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
5. Review STM A-30 label /leader line. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
6. Provide /label handrail at top of uppermost retaining wall. (Rev. 1) Partially addressed. Applicant
response: `A note referencing the handrail has been added to Sheet C-301 and handrail details are provided
in the wall plan.' Asfollow-ug: Detail is not provided in 8/11/20 Hillis Carnes 10-sheet retaining wall plan
(walls 1,2,3,4). Rather, fence detail schematic Anchor T Diamond Pro ®, (detail 134) includes a label
stating `Contractor to coordinate with fence contractor to ensure proper diameter depth, spacing, etc. (fence
design by others).' All retaining wall safety handrail details are requested as condition of building permit
application review for Walls 1, 2, 3, 4, and as condition of site plan approval. This is a design task (Bohler,
or Hillis -Carnes). It is not a field -coordinated or incidental construction task.
7. Label CG-12 pedestrian ramp at SW site entrance. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
Engineering Review Comments

8. C-303: Albemarle defers to VDOT review /approval of Maintenance of Traffic plan. (Rev. 1) Applicant
response: 'Acknowledged.'
9. C-304: Note 3. Recommend Bottler Engineering rely on Kimley-Horn Associates design plan elevations
(for State Farm Boulevard /South Pantops Drive Sidewalk project, 2016), which are likely more refined
and accurate than County GIS. County GIS data layer may not be used as a basis of site plan design. GIS
data layers are available to the public for informational purposes on/r (Rev. 1) Addressed. Applicant
response: `Acknowledged. Field surveyed elevations have been used for the design of the entrances along
State Farm Blvd.'
10. C-401: Proposed grading north of curb and gutter on the north side of site creates a channel, and
concentrates runoff. Provide ditch label, and design ditch at this location. (Rev. 1) Not addressed.
Applicant response: `Due to the small drainage area at the reference location, the flow is anticipated to
sheet flow without channelizing. The formation of a channel cannot be confirmed at this time due to lack
of field surveyed elevations in this location and a note has been added to Sheet C-401 for the contractor to
field verify grades.' This is nonresponsive. Engineering reviews proposed grade. Proposed grade forms a
channel, once tied to existing contours. A wait -and -see approach neither addresses comment, nor meets
design expectations. Verify grades, consider image below (channel created by proposed and existing
contours), provide ditch label, and design a ditch at this location.

Engineering recommends revise design to divert dumpster enclosure runoff through a curb -cut to exit
without detention /treatment to newly graded slopes south of development. Recommend discharging minor
runoff (-19' x I I' dumpster enclosure) to ground surface to bypass and protect the SWM system from
solids, refuse, debris, trash, grease, etc. that may, with current design, be conveyed into subgrade systems
and degrade or impede performance of the detention system. Any obstruction or short-circuiting may be
recurrent, persistent, and difficult to address later, yet avoidable at the design stage. (Rev. 1) Withdrawn,
recommendation not accepted. Applicant: `Grate Inlet A-60 is anticipated to prevent any debris large
enough to generate an obstruction in the SWM system from entering the storm pipes.'
C-502
12. Note: Storm lines proposed to convey State Farm Blvd. runoff (source: public RW) across the hotel site
require public deed of dedication of easement, and platted public drainage easement. Complete easement

plat application at earliest convenience. (Rev. 1) Comment persists. Applicant: `Easement plat shall be
submitted under separate cover.'
13. Recommend relocate STM A-20 and STM A-30 labels to more clearly identify structure location. (Rev. 1)
Addressed.
14. C503 /Re. 10-yr HGL computations:
a. At STM A-59, compare outlet WSE 510.28 with 508.50' crown of pipe
b. At STM A-60, compare outlet WSE 510.45 with 509,50' crown of pipe
c. At STM A-79, compare outlet WSE 510.28 with 509,25' crown of pipe
d. At STM A-80, compare outlet WSE 510.46 with 509,55' crown of pipe
Design must ensure flow is open channel regime, not pressurized, unless design provides notes,
specifications, labels etc. to ensure watertight fit (fittings_ _askets_ seals_ etc) from pipe subgrade to
rim elevations. 10-yr HGL computations table appears 9 flow. (Rev. 1)
Addressed. Applicant response: `While the HGLs rise within the structures due to pipe angles
generating losses, the pipes are oversized to provide sufficient capacity and it is not anticipated that the
pipes would experience pressurized flow.'
15. Show STM A-59 and STM A-79 labels in plan view. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
16. C-902: Provide VDOT IS-1, ST-1, PB-1 details on plan. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
17. New (Rev. 1): Provide runoff capture to ensure HC parking spaces/CG-12 ramps in front of the hotel are
clear of ponding, icing, debris accumulation. See blue -circle possible locations for grates /conveyance that
would, without additional revision, enhance surface conditions during 10-year or less frequent events.
Pipes could connect with STM A-50, A-40. Image below is not a design directive, rather, this comment
serves notice that a grading /utility plan that provides inadequate storm conveyance or that presents risk of
localized ponding, icing, etc. will not be approved, especially in vicinity of HC-parking spaces /ramps /or
guest drop-off areas that are by design high -use entries for elderly, children, HC-challenged guests, etc.
Note especially design of guest drop-off loop proposes to concentrate runoff (CG-6) then spill concentrated
flow across the loop. This design, which presents persistent risk of icing, debris accumulation, etc. will not
be approved. Reliance on side and rear storm inlets or grates appears to overlook relative locations,
practical concerns, and pedestrian use typical of hotel lobbies.
[ Proposed DI located along southwest edge of site (also circled) may be sized for upgradient runoff, but additional
catchment is required. Revise C-401, C-502.1
