Rev 2 — Addressed
Additional Rev 2 Comments
Per green book (VESCH Spec 3.05) silt fence should be located at least 5-7 feet beyond the
base of disturbed slopes with grades greater than 7%. In addition, the maximum slope
length behind the barrier must be less than 100'.
Rev 3 — Addressed.
2. Slopes greater than 3:1 grade must be covered with low maintenance, not grass,
groundcover. This includes 2:1 sloping around sediment traps.
Rev 3 — Addressed.
Process;
After DEQ coverage is issued, via the coverage letter, the County can hold a pre -construction conference.
Applicants will need to 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.

The VSMP permit application and all plans may be resubmitted for approval when all comments have
been satisfactorily addressed. For re -submittals please provide 2 copies of the complete permit package
with a completed application form.
Process;
After approval, plans will need 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 need to be completed by the owner
and submitted along with cash, certificates or sureties for the amounts specified. The agreements will need
to be approved and signed by the County Attorney and County Engineer. This may take 2-4 weeks to
obtain all the correct signatures and forms.
After bonding and agreements are complete, county staff will need to 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 need 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.

sediment basin #2 between phase IIB and Phase IIA amendment plans. Verify no additional area is
draining to sediment basin #2 (provide the drainage area), or provide details for necessary changes
to basin due to an increase in drainage area to the basin. Provide details of the outfall structure
related to sediment basin #2 as it will still be operational for this phase of construction and provide
clarity on how basin discharge will interact with proposed silt fence at the east side of the proposed
disturbed area and the newly constructed retaining wall.

10. Show Concrete Washout location on Phase II Erosion and Sediment Control Plan.
Rev. 2 Comment Addressed
11. Perimeter controls inadequate for northeast -east edge of site. Silt fence should not be used across
contour lines as shown. We suggest replacing silt fence on north/northeast side of site with
diversion dike which follows along the drainage divide identified for sediment basin #2 on sheet 4,
and discharge into sediment basin #2. An additional diversion dike may also be necessary on the
other side of the drainage divide opposite from the "Truck Path". This diversion would run along
the contour from the SB #2 drainage divide to the silt fence on the eastern side of the site. This
control is necessary collect runoff from area on the west side of the SB #2 drainage divide and
reduce the slope length draining to the downgrade silt fence. Finally, the silt fence along the
eastern side of the site, near where the three parcel boundaries meet, should be connected to
remove the gap along the site perimeter.

plan content requirements can be found in County Code section 17-402.
1. Erosion and sediment control Phase I plans appear to display a different sized drainage area to
sediment basin #2 between phase IIB and Phase IIA amendment plans. Verify no additional area is
draining to sediment basin #2 (provide the drainage area), or provide details for necessary changes
to basin due to an increase in drainage area to the basin. Provide details of the outfall structure
related to sediment basin #2 as it will still be operational for this phase of construction and provide
clarity on how basin discharge will interact with proposed silt fence at the east side of the proposed
disturbed area and the newly constructed retaining wall.

It. Perimeter controls inadequate for northeast -east edge of site. Silt fence should not be used across
contour lines as shown. We suggest replacing silt fence on north/northeast side of site with
diversion dike which follows along the drainage divide identified for sediment basin #2 on sheet 4,
and discharge into sediment basin #2. An additional diversion dike may also be necessary on the
other side of the drainage divide opposite from the "Truck Path". This diversion would run along
the contour from the SB #2 drainage divide to the silt fence on the eastern side of the site. This
control is necessary collect runoff from area on the west side of the SB #2 drainage divide and
reduce the slope length draining to the downgrade silt fence. Finally, the silt fence along the
eastern side of the site, near where the three parcel boundaries meet, should be connected to
remove the gap along the site perimeter.

The VSMP permit application and all plans may be resubmitted for approval when all comments have
been satisfactorily addressed. For re -submittals please provide 2 copies of the complete permit package
with a completed application form.
Engineering plan review staff are available from 2-4 PM on Thursdays, should you require a meeting to
discuss this review.
Process;
After approval, plans will need 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 need to be completed by the owner
and submitted along with cash, certificates or sureties for the amounts specified. The agreements will need
to be approved and signed by the County Attorney and County Engineer. This may take 2-4 weeks to
obtain all the correct signatures and forms.
Stormwater Management Facilities Maintenance agreements will also need to be completed and recorded.
The County's Management Analyst or other staff will prepare the forms and check for ownership and
signature information. The completed forms will need to be submitted along with court recording fees.
After bonding and agreements are complete, county staff will need to enter project information in a DEQ
Engineering Review Comments

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 need 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 will need to 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.
