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
VSMP application content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-401.
A. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
The SWPPP content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-405. A SWPPP must contain
(1) a PPP, (2) an ESCP, (3) a SWMP, and (4) any TMDL measures necessary.
1. SWPPP:
a. Sec. 6.A. / PPP Exhibit: Indicate initial location of rain gauge and non -hazardous solid waste
disposal (dumpster).
b. Sec 6.E.: List named individual responsible for PPP, prior to preconstruction as prerequisite to
receiving a Grading Permit. Not required for WPO plan approval.
c. Sec. 8: List named individual responsible for ESC compliance inspections prior to preconstruction
as prerequisite to receiving a Grading Permit. Not required for WPO plan approval.
B. Pollution Prevention Plan (PPP) —see SWPPP item l.a., above
The PPP content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-404.
C. Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP)
VSMP Regulation 9VAC25-870-108 requires the VSMP authority to approve or disapprove a SWMP. This
plan is disapproved for reasons listed below. The stormwater management plan content requirements can be
found in County Code section 17-403.
1. Note: Plan proposes 4.23 lb. nutrient credit purchase (24.6% of TP phosphorus reduction required). Please
coordinate purchase with Ana Kilmer at 434.296-5832 -x3246 prior to finalizing Affidavit and bill of sale,
as specific project -related information must display on Affidavit and bill of sale. Purchase is not required
for plan approval but is prerequisite to receiving a Grading Permit.
2. Include Construction Record Drawings (As -built) for VSMP on the plans, link to document:
httos: //www. albemarle. or2/home/showr)ubl i sheddocument/33 81 /6373275105 36700000
3. Revise (title sheet) Plan Title to include WP0202100058

4. Coordinate slopes shown by field survey to be less than 25 percent (not steep, therefore eligible for
development) with Engineering. Currently -mapped preserved steep slopes are shown graded, or with
improvements. Neither grading nor improvements are permissible on preserved steep slopes. ASteep
Slopes Exhibit with discrete survey data showing portions of currently -mapped steep slopes proposed to be
graded or otherwise developed are < 25%, is required, prior to WPO plan approval of proposed grading, or
improvements depicted across preserved steep slopes. Please coordinate with Engineering.
5. C-903:
a. Provide VDOT LD-204, Storrnwater Inlet Computations, and LD-229, Storm Sewer Design
Computations for on -site proposed SWM collection /conveyance system.
b. Provide VDOT LD-229 for existing storm system elements within Rt. 29 NBL RW, and Ashwood
Blvd RW. Evaluate current available capacity of inlets and pipes against flow anticipated to occur
with RST Residencies development.
c. While C-903 considers I-10 (existing /proposed) 2-year inlet capacity, the capacity of the pipe
network downstream of 1-10 inlet must be evaluated against additional storm runoff (10-yr event)
reaching I-10 from development entrance on U.S. Rt. 29 NBL.
6. C-907:
a. Include installation sequence, guidance, notes, labels, etc. for Vault 1, Vault 2. Ensure notes,
sequence, etc. specify that SWM facilities are not to be installed prior to upslope stabilization.
b. Include periodic maintenance and inspection procedures, guidance, steps, etc. for Vaults 1, 2.
7. Please consider /incorporate WPO plan -related Engineering review comments on SDP202100079, Initial
Site plan, d. 11/16/21, with revised WPO plan.
D. Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (ESCP)
Virginia Code §62.1-44.15:55 requires the VESCP authority to approve or disapprove an ESCP. This plan
is disapproved for reasons listed, below. The erosion control plan content requirements can be found in
County Code section 17-402.
1. C-601:
a. ST-2 is proposed immediately adjacent to property line, recommend revise location to provide
additional space for post -event remedy, i.e. measures that may be required to limit erosion or off -
site sediment transport should less frequent events overwhelm capacity of ST-2, an event of
failure. ST location immediately adjacent to property lines is discouraged.
2. C-618:
a. Specify concrete embedment for sediment basin primary riser, provide buoyancy calculations,
unless overlooked.
3. Provide SAF between existing multi -use (ped /bike) path along U.S. Rt. 29, and development.
4. Provide interim phase ESC plan, between ESC phase I and II, that indicates a stage of development and
stabilization with trapping devices (ST/SB) coincident with building, parking, and travelway grading prior
to installation of SWM detention systems. Phase I reflects no grading (existing conditions, i.e., no
development grading), while phase II ESC plan depicts complete development, site stabilization —arc of
site development /interim grading is missing. Provide interim phase ESC plan that reflects proposed mass
grading required to prepare building sites, travelway /parking subgrade, etc. At this stage, traps or basin
may require alteration. Depict ESC measures required to support mass grade /next phase of development,
including road /parking subgrade elevations, building pad elevations, etc., prior to final stabilization.
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
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 forms.
Stormwater Management Facilities Maintenance agreements will also have to be completed and are recorded. The
County's Management Analyst or other staff will prepare the forms and check for ownership and signature
information. The completed forms will have to be submitted along with court recording fees.
This project requires separate easement plat application, review, and approval. Once plat is reviewed and comments
are addressed, Engineering will format template deeds (SWM / public drainage) to be recorded with the plat
Note: easement plat with deed/s must be recorded prior to receiving a Grading Permit.
Also: plan proposes 4.23 lb. nutrient credit purchase. Although nutrient credit purchase is not required for WPO
plan approval, it is required prior to pre -construction, to receive a Grading Permit.
After bonding and agreements are 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 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 must 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 Applications:
