o FLOW CONTROL <br /> The thresholds for flow control within the combined sewer area are as follows: <br /> ® Projects that have a total of 200 square feet or more of net new impervious surface, <br /> or <br /> ® Projects that convert%acres or more of vegetation to lawn or landscape. <br /> The site design for the improvements is for approximately 391 sf of new and replaced hard <br /> surfaces, including off-site improvements. This project will result in more than 200 square <br /> feet of net new impervious surface, so this project must meet the `Flow Control Performance <br /> Standard". The existing and proposed conditions were modeled and compared using <br /> WWHM 12 software. Per the combined storm sewer design and construction standards and <br /> specifications chapter 6-10.1(1), the Washington Department of Ecology approved <br /> modelling program (WWHM), shall be performed using a 15-minute timestep. Therefore the <br /> 15-minute time step was used in this analysis. <br /> As per the interim Public Works Policy#2-11 the existing site will not be modeled as forested <br /> land cover but rather the existing site conditions. <br /> Using WWHM software the basin was analyzed for-the existing flow conditions for the <br /> disturbed basin only. This data was then used as the matching criteria required in the sizing <br /> of the detention pipe. <br /> The existing soils were found to be dark brown sandy loam to 10 inches, brown loamy fine <br /> sand to 30 inches, and tan fine sand to 48 inches. Due to the soil type, a typical infiltration <br /> trench is feasible. However, due to the extensive site grading in the past, no native soil <br /> conditions remain on the site. Therefore, a downspout dispersion system will be utilized. <br /> Since there is a vegetated flow path of at least 50 feet and the roof area of the proposed <br /> garage is 391 square feet, two splash blocks are sufficient to meet the requirements. <br /> L City of Everett <br /> EVERErr Reviewed for Permit 11/18/2021 <br /> Bedle Garage 21-0421 <br /> November 2021 Page 11 <br />
