6. PRESERVATION OF NATURAL DRAINAGE SYSTEM <br /> The runoff from the impervious improvements will be collected and tight lined directly to the <br /> toe of the bluff to the north within the BNSF railroad R/W. This is based on the City of <br /> Stormwater Management Manual prohibiting infiltration or dispersion of impervious surface <br /> runoff within 100 feet of slopes steeper than 20%. The steep bluff slopes found <br /> approximately'70`feet north of the building site exceed 35%.'This will slightly change the <br /> existing conditions of the site but the outfall from the proposed system will be within 100- <br /> feet of Puget Sound. <br /> 7._ ON-SITE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT <br /> The 'on:site"soils'were found to be fine sandy silt and silty fine sand to a depth of <br /> approximately 20 feet below grade. It has been determined that infiltration is not feasible <br /> due to the presence of the existing steep slopes/bluff approximately 70 feet north of the <br /> proposed SFR. Therefore, a collection/conveyance system has been designed to tightline <br /> all proposed hard surface runoff down the slope to the northwest to be discharged at the toe <br /> of the slope within the BNSF railroad R/W. <br /> Finally, any area of the site not proposed to be covered with impervious surfaces but graded <br /> or compacted will be treated to meet the criteria for DOE BMP T.5.13. Please refer to the <br /> engineering plans for the locations of the soil amendments and additional details. <br /> 8. SUMMARY <br /> This project proposes to construct less than 5,000 sf of new hard surfaces:As a result, the <br /> use and land cover for less than 5,000 sf of the site will be converted pervious to impervious <br /> surfaces. Stormwater management techniques have been incorporated into the design. <br /> Therefore, the stormwaterdesign for this project has met or exceeded all of the applicable <br /> Minimum Requirements-5. • <br /> Haack-Taylor Drive 19-1112 <br /> January 2020 <br /> Revised October 2020 Page 9 <br />
