o Down slope of steep, erosion prone areas that are likely to deliver <br />sediment. <br />o Where fill soils are used that can become unstable when saturated. <br />o Excessively steep slopes where water within the aggregate base layer <br />or at the sub -grade surface cannot be controlled by detention structures <br />and may cause erosion and structural failure, or where surface runoff <br />velocities may preclude adequate infiltration at the pavement surface. <br />o Where permeable pavements can not provide sufficient strength to <br />support heavy loads at industrial facilities such as ports. <br />o Where installation of permeable pavement would threaten the safety or <br />reliability of pre-existing underground utilities, pre-existing <br />underground storage tanks, or pre-existing road sub -grades. <br />The following criteria can be cited as reasons for a finding of infeasibility <br />without further justification (though some require professional services to <br />make the observation): <br />o Within an area designated as an erosion hazard, or landslide hazard. <br />o Within 50 feet from the top of slopes that are greater than 20%. <br />o For properties with known soil or ground water contamination <br />(typically federal Superfund sites or state cleanup sites under the <br />Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA)): <br />o Within 100 feet of an area known to have deep soil contamination; <br />o Where ground water modeling indicates infiltration will likely <br />increase or change the direction of the migration of pollutants in <br />the ground water; <br />o Wherever surface soils have been found to be contaminated unless <br />those soils are removed within 10 horizontal feet from the <br />infiltration area; <br />o Any area where these facilities are prohibited by an approved <br />cleanup plan under the state Model Toxics Control Act or Federal <br />Superfund Law, or an environmental covenant under Chapter <br />647nRCW <br />o Within 100 feet of a closed or active landfill. <br />o Within 100 feet of a drinking water well, or a spring used for drinking <br />water supply, if the pavement is a pollution -generating surface. <br />o Within 10 feet of a small on -site sewage disposal drainfield, including <br />reserve areas, and grey water reuse systems. For setbacks from a <br />"large on -site sewage disposal system", see Chapter 246-272B WAC. <br />o Within 10 feet of any underground storage tank and connecting <br />underground pipes, regardless of tank size. As used in these criteria, an <br />underground storage tank means any tank used to store petroleum <br />Volume V — Runoff Treatment BMPs — December 2014 <br />5-19 <br />
