OFF-SITE ANALYSIS <br />The downstream drainage system for the subject site was investigated for approximately <br />'/< mile on 3/9/99. Weather conditions for ihe weeks prior to the investigation consisted of <br />heavy, continual precipitation. The extent of the drainage system investigated consists <br />entirely of underground conveyance systems. Observations of this system are therefore <br />limitec: to evidence of overtopping or flooding and/or silted or clogged strucriues. <br />The downstream conveyance system generally runs north along Rainier Drive across <br />Tereve and Madison and then continues north behind the Albertsons simated on the <br />corner of Madison and Evergreen Way. Eventua]ly this system dischazges to the <br />Alderwood Pump Station. At the time of investigation there were not any obvious <br />problems with the system. Most of the catch basins observed were clear of debris and free <br />of standing water and there was no evidence of overtopping or flooding observed. Two <br />catchbasins were noted where potential problems could occur in the future. The existing <br />catch basin shown in photo #1 is located at the northeast corner of the subject site. As <br />shown in the photo the rim of this catchbr.sin is approximately a half-foot lower in <br />elevation than existing grade which could cause deUris to collect and clog the intake <br />grate.l'lie catch basin shown in photo m2 on the west side of Rainier Drive at the <br />intersection of Rainier and Tereve Drive is lower in elevation than the sunounding grade. <br />Red landscape rochs surrounding the catch basin aze falling into the catch basin sump and <br />cou(d eventually clog d�is structure. <br />
