SLC <br /> SILVER LAKE CENTER Environmental <br /> The Project Plan acknowledges the environmental context of the Site in many ways,the first by its <br /> intentions for surface water management. <br /> Over the years adjoining projects have influenced the site by directing some and sometimes all of their <br /> run off and today a shallow grass line swale exists along the northeastern boundary of the Site. This <br /> swale was then turned ninety degrees,becoming a ditch that during the winter rains carries water a a very <br /> fast pace to a culvert extending into Silver Lake; <br /> The entire course of this run-off is through a highly degrade man made confluence and has little or no <br /> value to the enhancement of water quality; <br /> The parking lot that currently serves the existing Safeway store also has no effective means of mitigating <br /> the detrimental effects of such an area; <br /> In our view,there is much opportunity to develop a more responsible and effective means of improving <br /> the quality of water that is in part the reason for the existence of the Lake; <br /> Our goal is to employ the physical characteristics of the Site,in particular the topographic changes <br /> together with the Project Plan,by creating a water course than fords it way through various elements <br /> within the Project,then into a cascade of"silos"that then feed the reflecting ponds along SR527; <br /> Silver Lake Center Project Profile Page 13 of 21 <br />
