Multiple impervious area inlets /pipes are proposed to route directly to the wet pond without encountering forebays. Pg. 8, VA DEQ Stormwater Design Specification No. 14, 6.4, Pretreatment Forebay, states: 'A forebay must be located at each major inlet to trap sediment and preserve the capacity of the main treatment cell.' Note, for example, all areas upstream of pipes 301, 225, and 203 collect parking lot /rooftop runoff and discharge directly to the floor of the main treatment cell. Provide forebay at each major inlet. A forebay is provided within the wet pond. The gabion wall location and top elevation are provided on Sheet C5.5. Rev. 1): Addressed. 10. C5.4, C6.1: Wet pond (plan view) proposed floor elevation is shown as 413' while INV out is given as 418'. This appears inconsistent with C7.6 profile view (INV out = 417', profile view). Please reconcile. All pond elevations are provided in details on Sheet C7.6. The bottom of the pond is 413' but the lowest orifice in the riser structure is 417' for 4' of ponding. The invert out of the outfall pipe is 410.74'. A scaled vertical profile is also provided on Sheet C8.0. Rev. 1): Addressed. 11. Provide required geotechnical testing: Please see p. 8, VDEQ specification No. 14. Underdrains are provided so no further testing is provided at this time. Rev. 1): Addressed. 12. Please provide pond drain. Please see Pond drain, p. 9, VDEQ specification No. 14. A pond drain has been added. Rev. 1): Addressed. 13. Provide Landscaping and planting plan: Please see p.11, VDEQ specification No. 14. A landscape plan has been provided with this submission. (Rev. 1): Withdrawn. Turf in pond buffers provided; this meets DEQ Clearinghouse Table 14.2 Level 1 pond requirements. Design also appears to meet landscaping and planting plan requirements listed at p. 11. 14. Provide Water balance analysis: p.7, VDEQ Spec No. 14. to account for routing significant runoff thru bioretention; concern being possible insufficient runoff to support a wet pond. The water balance analysis is provided in the BMP calculations on sheet U.S. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 15. Label wet pond side slopes. Please see p. 10, 6.6 Internal Design Geometry, side slopes: 4H:1V or 5H:1V (mild side slopes). Slope labels of 4:1 for wet pond has been included, please see Sheet C5.2 — C5.5. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 16. Wet pond floor should be lower than SB1 floor elevation; please revise (see p. 16, Spec. No. 14). The sediment basin elevation has been raised to be above the wet pond bottom elevation. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 17. (C3.2, C6.1) Q 2-yr=37.00cfs at outlet 200 in floor of wet pond. Str. 200 design directs energy toward the inner far wall of the pond. Energy of 37.00cfs (not to mention higher -energy, less -frequent storm events) may cause near -immediate destabilization of inner wall of wet pond. Revise design to attenuate energy of 2-yr event prior to discharge to pond floor to protect interior fill slopes/walls of pond against erosive force. The geometry of the pond has changed and outlets 200 and 300 are no longer so close together and to the opposite wall of the pond. Outlet protection has been provided and designed in accordance to the Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control handbook to prevent erosion at the outfalls into the pond. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 18. Outfall 300 should be revised to avoid alignment with /toward outfall 200. Erosion /undermine of outfall 200 is a concern with current alignment. The geometry of the pond has changed and outlets 200 and 300 are no longer so close together and to the opposite wall of the pond. Rev. 1 : Addressed. As follow-up: Please label outfall protection dimensions (1 x w x d) at both pipe outfalls into the (wet pond) forebay, C5.5. Labels with dimensions has been included for both pipe outfalls into the (wet pond)forebay. 19. It is unnecessary to include Drainage Area A and B VaRRM.xIs excerpt data on the plan, but if it remains, please also include VaRRM.xIs summary site data. The Drainage area tabs from the VRRM spreadsheet have been removed from the plan sheet but are included in the Calc book. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 20. C5.1 a. Evaluate increased volume of sheet flow at proposed graded slope along Rio Road East for stormwater quantity compliance. Provide pre- /post - development calculations for this area, or direct reviewer to pp. in calc. packet that consider increased volume of sheet flow at this location. Pre/Post quantity compliance has been provided for concentrated flow for Outfall 2. Rev. 1 : Addressed. b. Area does not qualify as exempt from quantity controls, but rather, represents increased volume of post -developed sheet flow /runoff at this location. Pre/Post quantity compliance has been provided for concentrated flow for Outfall 2. Rev. 1 : Addressed. c. Post -developed runoff at this location may not cross either existing or future sidewalk at this location or skip curb into Rio Road East. A channel has been added prior to the proposed trail to capture runoff. A new inlet is proposed to tie into the existing storm drain system. Rev. 1 : Partially addressed. As follow-up, C5.1/C5.3 should show new inlet proposed to tie into the existing storm drain system. New inlet structure 902 has been proposed to tie into the existing storm drain system. d. Capture runoff at base of proposed slope along Rio Road East, and convey to SWM facility (see 9VAC25-870-66.D.) A channel has been added prior to the proposed trail to capture runoff. A new inlet is proposed to tie into the existing storm drain system. Rev. 1 : Addressed. But please see follow-up at item 20.c., above. Acknowledged. Comment has been addressed per 20.c. 21. Furnish stormwater quantity and quality narratives on the plan. Narratives are provided on C7.0. Rev. 1 : Addressed. As follow-up; Please revise narrative/s as needed to reflect (any) change in design. The narrative has been revised per phone conversation and email with reviewer. 22. Bioretention (1A, B, C, D, 2A): a. Provide design that meets Level 1 or 2 design criteria listed at Table 9.3, VA DEQ Stormwater Design Specification No. 9; for example: All bmp calculations are provided on Sheet C7.8. Both bioretention calculations meet Level 2 specifications. i. Level 2: 1. A pretreatment cell plus one of the following: a grass filter strip, gravel diaphragm, gravel flow spreader, or another approved (manufactured) pre-treatment structure. Both bioretentions utilizes a sediment forebay and a gravel diaphragm as pretreatment measures. Rev. 1): Partially addressed. C5.1 does not appear to show a gravel diaphragm for bioretention facility 2A. Both bioretentions have been updated to include gravel diaphragms and sediment forebays with gabion baskets. Both pretreatment devices are now labeled in plan view on Sheet C5.1 and C5.2. 2. Planting plan A planting plan has been provided with this submission. Rev. 1): Addressed. 3. Overflow for on-line bioretention (p. 22, VA DEQ Spec. No. 14) Both bioretentions provide overflow with a Nyloplast drainage basin. The 10-yr storm is contained within each bioretention. Rev. 1): Addressed. 4. Show underdrain which appears in C7.7 Level 2 typical in plan view/s. Underdrains are shown and labeled on Sheet C5.1 and C5.2. Rev. 1): Addressed. 1. Planting plan Both bioretentions are level 2. Rev. 1): NA. 2. Overflow Both bioretentions are level 2. Rev. 1): NA. 3. Show underdrain in plan view/s. Both bioretentions are level 2. Rev. 1 : NA. b. Provide bioretention (Clearinghouse) installation, maintenance, periodic inspection notes. Please see sheet C7.7. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 23. Calculations should include explicit ref. to wet pond forebay volume provided by biofilter 113, 1C, 1D forebays. Biofilter sediment forebays are not a forebay for the wet pond but are sized for areas draining to each biofilter. Compare biofilter sediment forebay total with design criteria at VA DEQ Stormwater Design Specification No. 14. Revise wet pond forebay design, as needed. Each biofilter forebay was sized for just the area draining to the biofilter and not for the entire wet pond drainage area. The wet pond has its own forebay that is sized for the entire drainage area to the pond and does not utilize the bioretentions as forebays. All forebay calculations are provided on the BMP calculation sheet, C7.8. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 24. Revise calculation packet title sheet to include ref. to WPO202200011. WPO number has been added. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 25. New: a. Plan includes C7.10 titled easement plan. As follow-up, please: a. Please submit SWM facility / facility access / public drainage easement plat at earliest convenience. Plat will be submitted for review under separate cover. b. Easement (plat) recordation is required prior to WPO plan approval. Acknowledged, Plat will be submitted for review under separate cover. b. C5.2, C5.5: Please turn on pipe / inlet label layer. Additional comments possible. Pipe and inlet label layer has been turned on for sheets C5.2 and C5.5. c. C5.3: Please check pipe/inlet labels 245a, 246a against tables, C7.9. Revise table, as needed. Pipe and inlet labels and storm calculation tables have all been revised for this submission. d. C7.9: Please check spread, Str. 246, against travel lane width if inlet in travel lane (Note: C5.3 shows inlet 246a, but reviewer cannot locate inlet 246). The inlet numbers have been updated and new spread calculations tables have been added to the sheets. e. C5.1: Revise inlet throat length, Str. 806 (spread = 11.07') Inlet calculations has been updated for Str. 806. f. C7.6: Please call to discuss Energy balance, pre -/post -development Q1-yr offsite since plan sheet does not clarify basis of off -site routings (correlate plan off -site values with Calc. packet hydrograph routings). Offsite area description has been added to the narrative per call and email with reviewer. g. C8.0-C8.3 a. Provide profile label requiring %" steel plate in floor of "step down" MHs wherever INV IN-INV OUT > 4.0'; ref. VDOT Drainage Manual, 9.4.8.7 pg. 9-38. Notes for requiring %:" steel plate in floor in reference to VDOT drainage manual has been added to profiles that have an invert different of greater than four feet. h. Calc. packet a. (Pg. 4 / .PDF) lists several storm sewer computations table column 6, CA values = 0.00. Please check for accuracy since all inlet drainage areas > 0.00 Ac., with coefficients >0.0. The storm calculation tables have been updated to reflect changes to the plans for this submission. All inlet drainage areas have been checked for accuracy. The remaining manholes that have 0 acres of drainage area indicates a manhole and not an inlet. b. Please include summary text for EB equation to support C7.6 EB values, especially 1.07cfs offsite pre -developed value. Summary text should ref. hydrograph/s, refer to pg. in Calc. packet where values are modeled / predicted. Narrative has been updated per phone conversation and email with reviewer. c. Applies to C7.1, C7.3, as well: Applicant may not include Rio Commons (proposed development adjacent / south of Rio Point) in the post - developed condition. Revise calculations / design, as needed. While reasonable to anticipate development approved 07/09/21 by SDP202100045 (ISP), development of adjacent parcel may not occur. Alternatively, include post -developed attenuated Rio Comments off - site runoff onto Rio Point Site, in both pre- and post -developed condition. Rio Point may not benefit from intrinsic advantage obtained by depicting runoff from Rio Commons as unbuilt in the Rio Point pre- existing condition, yet built in the Rio Point post -developed condition (compare CNs, for example). Development of Rio Commons must have neutral effect on Rio Point WPO Plan. Again, please revise this (Rio Point) design to reflect Rio Commons unbuilt in both pre- / post - condition, or built in pre- / post condition, since projects are routinely delayed, or at times, abandoned (never built / no guarantee Rio Commons will be built). Rio Commons pre/post development is included in water quantity pond calculations only. Additional information has been provided in the narrative per phone conversation and email with reviewer. If Rio Commons is never built, Rio Point pond will just be oversized. 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. C3.2 sediment basin design table indicates L/ We = 8.1 (baffles required if >2), then states, No baffles. Please provide, label, and dimension SB baffles, since baffles appear to be required. The calculations have been corrected. No baffles are required. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 2. Provide existing contour labels across all ESC sheets (all phases). Labels have been added. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 3. Depict interim mass grade phase with ESC measures, as needed, between Phase I (initial perimeter controls (SF, diversions) and traps/basin) and Phase 11 (build -out /final parking — buildings). Plan should depict graphically mass grading /partial utility installation, and ESC measures needed to grade site and install pipe networks. Show relocated traps, perimeter measures, etc. that may be needed during interim phase of site grading /utility work. Provide graphic complement to text at Sequence of Installation Note. 17., C3.0. An interim mass grading phase has been added between Phase 1 and Phase 2. Rev. 1 : Partially addressed. As follow-up: a. Please number sheet number C3.21. Number has been added. b. Please check order of sheets (for example, C3.6 should precede C3.12 in final plan set). Acknowledged, correction has been made. c. C3.11, C3.12: Label sediment traps. Sediment trap on sheet C3.11 has been labeled. On sheet C3.12, rough grading was shown for a bioretention; however, grading has been revised and diversion dike is provided to direct on -site water into sediment basin #1. 4. C3.3: Provide break in SF, ST #2 at stone weir outfall. Plan has been updated. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 5. C3.09, C3.10, C3.17, C3.18: Provide existing contours in all areas of land disturbance, including sanitary sewer corridor. Previously proposed sanitary sewer outfall has been removed. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 6. C3.11; Evaluate existing culvert pipe capacity beneath paved walk N of development to ensure capacity adequate to convey anticipated Q 10-yr peak flow. Avoid unusual circumstance where a new storm pipe may have a larger DIA than a downstream storm pipe. The pipe out of Bioretention 2A was oversized. The 15" pipe at 4.08% is only at 8% capacity. The existing 15" culvert is at 17% slope. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 7. C3.15, C3.16: Label sediment basin Appropriate labels have been included for sediment basin. Rev. 1 : Addressed. 8. CS.xx series a. a. Label proposed TW /BW elevations for proposed retaining walls. Assign identifiers to proposed retaining walls for ease of reference. TW/BW labels have been added. Only one freestanding wall is proposed. Rev. 1 : Addressed. b. Establish /label proposed SWM facility easements sufficient to construct and perform future maintenance on SWM facilities. An Easement plan has been added to the plan. Please see sheet C7.10 for all easements. Rev. 1): Partially addressed. As follow-up; Please see item C.(New)25.a., above. An easement plat has been submitted for review. c. Establish /label public drainage easements downstream of storm drain inlets that receive Rio East storm runoff, and for pipe systems located downstream of any SWM facility. A Easement plan has been added to the plan. Please see sheet C7.10 for all easements. Rev. 1): Partially addressed. Please see previous item (D.8.b.), above.
