2. Description of Work <br /> The project consists of spot repaving within the north and south employee parking lots, concrete panel <br /> replacement within the bus parking area, and replacement of the existing trench drains within the concrete bus <br /> parking area with a gutter and catch basin collection system.The conveyance system from the bus staging area <br /> to the onsite water quality treatment vault will be replaced including five flow splitters and their high-flow outfalls to <br /> Merrill Creek. Downturned elbows will be added to the outfall pipes to provide spill control.The work associated <br /> with this project consists of repaving existing pavements with no increase in impervious surfacing and no change <br /> in storm drainage runoff characteristics. There will be approximately 7.4 acres of pavement replacement total. <br /> Within the north parking lot, areas of asphalt paving will be replaced adjacent to the existing concrete trench <br /> drains since the pavement has settled in relation to the top of the trench drain. In addition, asphalt will be <br /> removed and replaced in areas where tree roots have heaved the pavement. Cracked and decayed asphalt will <br /> be crack sealed or replaced. The entire north parking lot will be seal coated and restriped. The project also <br /> includes miscellaneous sidewalk, curb and landscape replacement. <br /> Within the south parking lot, areas of degraded asphalt will be removed and repaved with a thicker asphalt <br /> section. Much of the existing pavement in this area is very thin and there is year round water percolating up <br /> through the thin pavement section. The asphalt that has settled adjacent to the trench drain will also be removed <br /> and replaced and the grade corrected to allow drainage to freely enter the trench drain.The entire south parking <br /> lot will be seal coated and restriped. The ADA ramps in front of the Administration building will be reconstructed. <br /> There will be extensive concrete panel replacement to the bus staging area in the middle of the site.The project <br /> will replace existing concrete panels with a thicker pavement section.The bus staging area sheet flows into three <br /> trench drains which extend across the site in the east-west direction.The concrete pavement adjacent to the <br /> trench drains is spalling and is in need of repair. The project proposes to replace the trench drains with a <br /> concrete gutter instead.The gutter flow line will include several catch basin inlets to collect the storm drainage in <br /> lieu of the trench drains. <br /> 3. Existing Conditions Summary <br /> Onsite stormwater is collected by approximately 4,500 linear feet of 7-inch and 11-inch wide trench drains and <br /> 1,500 linear feet of 12-inch and 15-inch diameter CMP pipes. The trench drains generally drain to the east side of <br /> the site where the CMP pipes then route drainage to the north. <br /> The main conveyance system on the east side of the site contains a series of five flow splitter catch basins which <br /> were designed with an orifice restricted pipe going to the water quality system to the north and a high flow weir <br /> wall which when overtopped goes to an overflow pipe which discharges into Merrill Creek.The water quality flows <br /> are conveyed north onsite to the wet vault which then discharges into a Contech Stormfilter Vault before <br /> discharging into Merrill Creek at the north boundary of the site. <br /> The five overflow outfalls into Merrill Creek have a valve at the end of the pipe on the creek side. In recent years, <br /> all the valves have been left closed due to owner concerns over the lack of spill control in the flow splitters as well <br /> as deterioration of the flow splitters causing them to allow low flows to discharge out the bypass pipe. <br /> Offsite flows consist of storm drainage runoff from the vegetated hillside on the west side of the site is collected in <br /> an interceptor ditch and/or french drain. The northern half of the interceptor ditch drains northerly to a catch basin <br /> Merrill Creek Stormwater Code Compliance—Community Transit <br /> 2 <br />
