II. Site Assessment: <br /> The project site was developed with a single-family house and detached outbuilding. Existing vegetation <br /> consists of landscaping, low brush,grass and bushes.The site is accessed from 19th Avenue SE. <br /> The site generally flat with some local 2%slopes and contains no wetlands,creeks or streams. The site is <br /> within a neighborhood that consists of both multi-family and single-family homes. There might be a <br /> nominal amount of tributary runoff entering the site from the north. Existing storm sheet flow over the <br /> site toward an existing storm system on 19th Avenue SE. Similarly,the developed storm runoff from the <br /> entire site will flow toward onsite detention tank and released to an existing storm system on 19th Avenue <br /> SE. <br /> Review of all available information: Conducted site review and reviewed available information from the <br /> City of Everett and Snohomish County mapping system and found no critical areas,erosion or landslide <br /> hazard areas within quarter mile of the project site. Also,there are no streams,wetland or flood areas. <br /> Also there are no water quality issues has been identified. <br /> The soil hydrologic types for this site have been Also identified as Type C from the Snohomish <br /> County Soil Survey Map. This soil, Alderwood Urban Complex,this soil is moderately deep and <br /> moderately well drained over hardpan. More detailed soils information provided as part of the <br /> geotechnical engineering evaluation prepared by Nelson Geotechnical Associates, Inc. <br /> III. Site Development Plan w/On-Site Stormwater Management: <br /> The project proposes to manage stormwater runoff on site to the maximum extent. Flows from building's <br /> rooftops will be collected and directed to a detention tank. <br /> Most of the site soils will be disturbed during construction. The area where soils have been disturbed,the <br /> soil will be amended according to the following procedures: <br /> 1. Scarify subsoil to a depth of one foot. <br /> 2. In planting beds,will place three inches of compost and till in to an eight-inch depth. <br /> 3. In turf areas,will place two inches of compost and till in to an eight-inch depth. <br /> 4. Apply two to four inches of arborist wood chip,coarse bark mulch,or compost mulch to <br /> planting beds after final planting. <br /> During construction,the following strategies will be considered on the project site: <br /> 1. Retaining the duff layer,native topsoil,and natural vegetation in an undisturbed state to the <br /> maximum extent practicable. <br /> 2. Retaining to the maximum extent practicable the features on the site that provide natural <br /> stormwater management. <br /> 3. Maintaining predevelopment flow path lengths and natural drainage patterns whenever <br /> possible. <br /> 4. Keeping distances for overland flow short to promote sheet flow and minimize concentration of <br /> runoff <br /> 5. Managing stormwater as close to its origin as possible. <br />
