INTRODUCTION <br /> Inspection and maintenance requirements may change in the future, and this manual does not exempt <br /> this facility from any future changes in inspection and maintenance requirements. The project includes 8 <br /> livable Pallet Shelters along with bathroom and laundry facilities, in the rear of a lot occupied by the <br /> existing Faith Lutheran Church. The project will also include gravel surfacing around the Pallet Shelters, <br /> and a small area of asphalt for ADA-compliant grade transitioning. No vehicular travel is expected across <br /> these new impervious surfaces. Drainage design requirements were made in accordance with 2019 DOE <br /> Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington. <br /> Stormwater runoff from the gravel, roof and asphalt impervious surfaces will drain off the gravel pad area <br /> and is intended to disperse into the surrounding native vegetation per BMP T5.12 Sheet Flow Dispersion <br /> of the DOE Manual. No actual facilities are constructed for this BMP, rather the grading of the impervious <br /> surface on the site is intended to allow stormwater to exit the site and disperse into the native vegetation <br /> surrounding the facility. Facility maintenance and inspection should occur on a yearly and as-necessary <br /> basis to maintain gravel pathway areas such that stormwater can freely flow to the edges of the gravel <br /> area and disperse without impediment. This may include, but not be limited to the adjustment of surface <br /> grades back to design intent to encourage designed stormwater flow routes, filling in of"potholes"or low <br /> spots that might develop as the result of use, and/or the removal or relocation of features that may <br /> impede stormwater flow as per design. Additionally, 10 feet of native vegetation beyond the edge of the <br /> gravel area will be utilized for dispersion of stormwater runoff from the onsite improvements. This 10 feet <br /> will remain in a vegetated state similar to the surrounding grassed area. This grassed area maintained in <br /> a manner and scheduling in keeping with the desired maintenance habits of the existing facility. No items <br /> other than grass or native plantings shall be located within the 10 foot area in order to facility proper <br /> dispersion of stormwater. An example maintenance log is included on page 2. <br /> BMP T5.13 Post Construction Soil Quality and Depth is also utilized for disturbed project areas that are <br /> not covered with impervious surfaces. The amended soil areas should be planted with appropriate <br /> groundcover to match the surrounding vegetation and maintained in a manner and scheduling in keeping <br /> with the desired maintenance habits of the existing facility. Inspections to confirm functionality can be <br /> performed as necessary, but no schedule is required due to the nature of the BMP as it will exist in the <br /> developed state of the project. <br /> 1 <br />
