7. Recommend project site area and limits of disturbance be listed on C0.0. (Rev. 2) Addressed.
8. Since storm runoff releases to a natural conveyance downslope of pipe outfall, compliance requires energy
balance, which is provided. Given this, channel protection analysis is complete at riprap section at outfall.
No need to evaluate at POI-1, or discuss POI-L Likewise, recommend revise SWM Narrative to reflect
flood protection is met using 9VAC25-870-66.C.2.b, in which case, POI -A analysis is not required. (Rev.
2) Addressed,
9. C-900: Water Quality BMP Analysis makes ref. to Isolator Row. Provide isolator row plan /profile details,
as well as installation details for this stormwater quality -related BMP. Plan -profile -details required for
adequate installation, and construction inspection. (Rev. 2) Addressed,

10. Stormwater Detention System — Outlet Structure Detail: If this is (sheet C-202) Str. STM A-30 revise detail
caption to clarify this is the case (if outlet structure detail is STM A-20, please revise detail to clarify).
Also: (Rev. 2) Addressed.
a. Low flow orifice < 3" DIA is prone to blockage. Engineering requires 3" Min orifice diameter.
Revise weir plate design, detention system design, and routings, as needed. (Rev. 2) Withdrawn.
b. Provide weir plate data: material, gauge, connection to MH wall (pre -fabricated /field -built, etc.)
c. Ensure weir plate connection with MH /outlet structure is watertight. Provide notes
/specifications, as needed.
d. Provide low -flow orifice trash rack, and detail.
e. Label critical elevations of 45" StormTech ® MC-3500 detention system profile. For example:
underdrain, stone chamber beneath system, top of chamber, final grade, etc.
11. Operation of bypass is unclear. Provide plan /profile design information for bypass /bypass structures.
Clarify whether weir plate is located in STM A-20 or A-30. Clarify location and elevations of bypass
pipes. Show bypass pipes in profile. Provide schematic detail aligned /consistent with C-203 Sequence,
Phase I, Note 7, where bypass pipes are introduced. Explain how permanent bypass of a portion of post -
developed storm runoff works. Clarify post -developed bypass runoff via narrative and schematic detail.
(Rev. 2) Partially addressed. Please consider possibility underground detention may become obstructed
(consider site runoff routed to system, not State Farm Blvd. off -site runoff that bypasses the site).
Engineering recommends design allow bypass of on -site runoff of the underground detention system in
event system experiences obstruction or unanticipated issue. (Rev. 3) Withdrawn. Applicant:
`Recommendation acknowledged. The bypass pipes have been oversized to ensure adequate capacity and
limit the potential of obstruction. In the event that the bypass were to be obstructed, the underground
detention system would back up from the two inlets at the northwest side of the development and overtop
the curb, flowing down grade to the outfall location, providing overland relief for the proposed building.'
12. Consolidate SWM details, as much as possible. For example, only plan -view schematic of StormTech
system is an outline of the system on C-202, which is insufficient. Include plan -view of detention system
on SWM plan sheet, rather than ESC plan sheet. Label overall L x W of detention system. (Rev. 2)
Addressed,
13. It is unclear after reviewing plan and technical information whether the entire extent of the MC-3500
system is an isolator row, or if only a portion is. Clarify using linework, notes, labels, etc., extent and
location of isolator row. Ensure plan provides sufficient detail to guide installation of inspection ports,
non -woven fabric, etc. (Rev. 2) Addressed.
14. Provide calculation using L x W of StormTech system to show VaRRM.xls required volume is provided:
5,842.49 FT3. (Rev. 2) Partially addressed. As ollow-: Details on C-903 (* footnote) appear to indicate
12" stone above a 9" stone foundation, or 21" stone total is required to provide design treatment volume.
Please confirm minimum installed storage meets required (VaRRM .xls) treatment volume. (Rev. 3)
Addressed. Applicant: `The SWM detention elevations have been confirmed to match the engineering
design, conforming with the VaRRM values shown.'

existing 2 1 " bypass).
C-203
16. Sequence of Construction, Phase I, Note 7: Label 21" RCP pipe on C-202. (Rev. 2) Comment appears to
persist. Reviewer cannot locate label. (Rev. 3) Withdrawn; review error. "Per the sequence of
Construction, the existing 2 1 " RCP bypass pipe is to be removed in Phase I, following installation of the
proposed 24" RCP re-routed bypass pipe. As the existing 2 1 " bypass is to be removed in Phase I, it is not
shown in the Phase II E&S Control Plan on Sheet C-202.'

upstream storm conveyance pipes until all contributing upslope areas are stabilized (stone /pavement, etc.).
Also, revise Note 8 to indicate that contractor may not remove sediment trap (or any active ESC measure)
without county ESC inspector approval. (Rev. 3) Addressed. Applicant: `The Sequence of Construction
has been revised to provide additional clarification on the installation of the underground stormwater
detention facility and removal of the sediment trap.'
C-204:
21. Include VDOT standard details, including: ST-1, IS-1, MH-1.
22. Show sediment trap floor dimensions on C-201 (Also, item 6, above).
Once all review comments on SUB202000169/Final plat, are addressed, Engineering can format deeds of dedication
of public drainage and SWM facility/facility access for county attorney's office review. Once approved by CAO,
Engineering will send deeds to Applicant for notarized signature, and return to county for execution. Once deeds
are executed and deeds/plat are recorded by Applicant, the WPO plan can be approved and project registered with
VDEQ for state permit (VAR10 CGP) coverage. Once bonded and VAR10 permit is issued, a precwnstruction
meeting may be scheduled, and Grading permit issued. See Process, below.
Process:
After approval, plans will have 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
Engineering Review Comments
Page 6 of 6
check parcel and easement information based on the approved plans. The County's Management Analyst will
prepare bond agreement forms, which will have to be completed by the owner and submitted along with cash,
certificates or sureties for the amounts specified. The agreements will have to be approved and signed by the County
Attorney and County Engineer. This may take 24 weeks to obtain all the correct signatures and foams.
Note: Final (SWM facility /public drainage easement) plat must be recorded prior to VSMP/WPO plan approval.
After bonding and egfeeffients are is complete, county staff will 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 have to be paid directly to the state. For fastest processing,
this is done electronically with the entails 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 must complete the request for a pre -construction conference foam, 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,
