Subject: Site Review Meeting Comments April 16, 2009 site review meeting
Dear Mr. Brooks:
Below are VDOT's comments on the Site Plans for the April 16'h, 2009 Site Review Committee
Meeting:
SDP - 2009 -00016 North Fork Regional Pump Station — Preliminary (Gerald Gatobu)
1. There are proffers by both the North Fork Research Park and Northpoint to add an
additional southbound lane to route 29 at the location where this plan proposes a gravity
sewer. No plans have been reviewed for the widening of the road but efforts need to be
made to avoid conflicts. If widening takes place to the outside of Route 29, a 12 foot lane
and a 13 foot shoulder will be added. Utility structures must be placed outside of these
lanes and shoulders. Proposed structures 27 and 28 appear to be conflicting. It is
recommended that if the line must be placed within the VDOT Right of Way, it is located
in the outer 3 to 5 feet of the Right of Way in accordance with VDOT's Land Use Permit
Manual, 24VAC 30- 150 -1310.
2. Final plans will need to include a pavement design and entrance profile. A detail for the
pavement widening will be required and a design for the break in the guardrail needs to
be shown on the plan.
SDP - 2009 -00017 Humnen Fertility Diagnostics —minor (Gerald Gatobu)
Final plan needs to include design and drainage details for the pipe proposed within the
existing Route 1146 Right of Way.
SDP - 2009 -00018 Blue Ridge Shopping Center — Major (Elizabeth Marotta)
An easement is needed from the existing DI on Route 250 to the first structure off the
