As shown in the area summary above this project proposes to construct less than 5,000 sf <br /> of PGIS and is therefore below the threshold of requiring runoff treatment. <br /> 9. FLOW CONTROL <br /> Projects shall be exempt from flow control if the following thresholds are met: <br /> • Total effective impervious area less 5,000 sf, <br /> • Conversion of less than 3/4 acre of native vegetation to landscaping, or <br /> • Conversion of less than 2.5 acres of native vegetation to pasture, <br /> • Improvements that cause less than or equal to 0.15 cfs between the existing and <br /> developed 100-year peak discharge from the site. <br /> As detailed in Section 7 of this report, Runoff from the new roof surfaces of the SFR and <br /> approximately 1/3 of the driveway will be infiltrated and can be modeled as 'impervious <br /> infiltration'. Runoff from the concrete pad will be tightlined and has thus been modeled as <br /> 'Flat Driveway'. The existing conditions have been modeled as pasture and the converted <br /> pervious areas have been modeled as lawn. <br /> The inputs to WWHM12 are.as follows. <br /> PreDeveloped Conditions: <br /> C, Pasture, Mod: 0.29 acres <br /> Developed conditions: <br /> C, Lawn, Mod: 0.111 acres <br /> A B IMP INF FLAT: 0.128 acres <br /> DRIVEWAYS, FLAT: 0.051 <br /> Peak 100-year flow rate for Existing Condition: 0.0164 cfs <br /> Peak 100-year flow rate for Developed Condition: 0.0710 cfs <br /> Change in 100-year flow rate: 0.0546 cfs <br /> As all but 2,207 sf of hard surface runoff will be infiltrated for this project, this project has <br /> shown to construct less than 5,000 sf of effective impervious surfaces (EIS). This project <br /> also proposes less than 3/4 acre of land conversion. By infiltrating most of the runoff <br /> generated by the proposed roof and driveway surfaces, this project is shown to increase the <br /> peak flows by only 0.0545 cfs in the downstream system (See Appendix A for WWHM2012 <br /> printout). Therefore, flow control is not required for this project. <br /> 10. WETLAND PROTECTION <br /> By designing the on-site improvements to increase the peak flow rates from the site by less <br /> than 0.15 cfs and by maintaining the sheet flow condition, this will provide the necessary <br /> protection to any downstream NGPA. <br /> McCann SFR 19-0913 <br /> September 2019 <br /> Reprised:January2020 Page 11 <br />
