Note/Current bond amounts: $4,500 remains on WPO/ESC (BND200500021 WP -SE); $62,000 (original) remains on
WPO/SWM bond (BND200500022WP-SW).
Note above (current bond Amt.) included with WP0201500020; will confirm if still valid/ if any change since Apr -2015.
A. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) —See File WP0201500020 for 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.
B. VSMP: SWPPP: Stormwater Management Plan (WP0201500085)
VSMP Regulation 9VAC25-870-108 requires the VSMP authority to approve or disapprove a SWMP. This plan
is approved.
CV/Initial submittal comment: Request to amend WP0201500020 to remove an approved BMP
with subsequent increase in amount of phosphorus leaving any point of discharge, or increase in
volume or rate of runoff, would forfeit Grandfathering Part II C technical criteria. This means,
were the bioretention facility removed, the self -storage facility SWM design must comply with
Part II B water quality and quantity requirements (9VAC25-870-65 / 9VAC25-870-66). We
discussed proposal with DEQ, have sent email to DEQ to confirm our understanding, but have not
heard back. Amendment application was discussed with the County Engineer and Department
Director. We have waited sine 8 Dec for DEQ response to attached email, and will forward any
correspondence we receive. WP0201500020 may not be amended to remove approved
bioretention near building G unless SWM design provides on-site features compliant with Part II B
technical criteria. (Rev. 1) Addressed.

Recommend revise Plan Title to include Amendment to WPO201500020. (Rev. 2) Addressed.
Edit [text box] Note, sheet 4, to reference WPO201500020. Reference to WPO2005-00012 neglects recent
VSMP Approval for this facility (22 Apr 2015), leaving gap similar to reference to approved SWM facility
at Avinity Estates. This may mislead in terms of existing, valid VSMP permit approval. This Amendment
seeks to modify WPO201500020 for a portion of the facility. (Rev. 2) Addressed.
2- , 10 -yr (routed) flows indicate design sufficient to attenuate developed runoff to less than pre -developed
runoff rates, but before system design can be approved, please:
a. Provide graphic exhibit of pre- /post -developed areas to show how/where development decreases
impervious area 0.05 Ac. (2,178 SF) (Rev. 2) Addressed. Ref. Graham Murray (FGM), Collins
Engineering email, March 17, 2016 1:48 PM.
b. Revise Str. 2 INV out to Str. 8 (bypass) < 642.46' (=30" DIA pipe elevation at weir plate, Str. 4)
to avoid surcharge condition at weir plate. Appears reasonable to set bypass < this elevation.
(Rev. 2) Addressed. Str. 2 INV Out Elev. =642.95' to Str. 8 is acceptable. —Ref. 3/17 FGM email.
c. Specify 30" weir plate material —not HDPE; specify steel gauge. (Rev. 2) Addressed. —Ref.
3/17/16 email. "The manufacturer ...advised ...SRPE material should be used for the weir plate."
d. Specify 30" detention system material. (HDPE?) (Rev. 2) Addressed. Material is steel
reinforced polyethylene (SRPE) —Ref. 3/17/16 FGM email.
e. Amendment Calculations (Jan 27 2016) exclude bypass from routing, yet include Str. 4 Access,
with INV =644.7' (TOP Str. 4). At Elev. 642.46', bypass activates (2.b., above). It appears
bypass will influence routing, and should be included/considered. Please feel free to call to
discuss. (Rev. 2) Addressed. 3/17/16 FGM email cites Mfr. design assurance.
f. Revise routings, as needed. (Rev. 2) Addressed. Comment withdrawn. —Ref. J. Anderson email
to FGM/Collins Engineering, March 17, 2016 5:23 PM.
g. Please provide Contech material/labor estimate of Duromaxx system (installed expense) to
improve bond estimate (this is a request, not a requirement; it's been very helpful in the past).
This value will be compared with existing SWM bond, with goal of continuing current SWM
bond, for sake of simplicity. (Rev. 2) Addressed. —Ref. March 17, 2016 1:29 PM FGM email.
["The cost estimate for this DuroMaxx system is $12,000 delivered to the project site."]
5. Amended Storm Sewer label (sheet 4A) states VDOT ST -1 required for several structures. Other structures
appear to require ST -1 (steps); please ensure labels identify all structures requiring VDOT ST -1 (steps).
(Rev. 2) Addressed.
C. VSMP: SWPPP: Erosion Control Plan (WPO201500085)
Virginia Code §62.1-44.15:55 requires the VESCP authority to approve or disapprove an ESCP. This plan is approved.
1. Minor: Sheet 2, Sediment trap 1 design table, 16' width; plan view, 26'. Please reconcile. (Rev. 2)
Addressed.
Process:
It is unclear if current SWM bond is sufficient. Mfr. estimate of $12,000 site -delivered material expense (which
does not include installation) requires bond; this may be offset, partially or in whole, by the original $62,000 SWM
plan bond that includes a biofilter not to be built with this plan. A pre -construction meeting may have been held
following VSMP permit approval, Apr -2015. I am uncertain. I am uncertain beyond point of Apr -2015 approval.
Project holds valid VPDES CGP: VARIOG818 (Albemarle Storage LLC; Estimated Area to be disturbed =1.67 Ac).
At pre -construction conference (if required), should everything proceed satisfactorily, a grading permit will be issued
by the County so that work may begin.
