After the design star=, ground slope and ground •cover have <br />been decersined for the site, the allowable out=low rate in <br />cfs per acre can be dete--zined by interpolation from tables 2 <br />through 5. If a sitz contains two types of ground cover, for <br />example, then a separate inter=olation is made for each ground <br />cover type and the results added to dete_^3ine the total <br />allowable outflow rate in cis per ace. <br />After the allowable outflow rate in cfs/ace is calculated, <br />the recuired detention in cubic feet per acre is deter=ined by <br />inter-oolation from table 6 or 7. Again if two ground cover <br />types are proposed after development, a separate interpolation <br />is made for each ground cover type and the result added to <br />determine the total detention requirement in cubic feet per <br />acre. The detention requirement is then detet3sned by <br />multiplying by the site area in acres. <br />,v <br />For residential subdivisions the actual extent of ground cover <br />types will not be own during plan review. Based upon a <br />su_^�ey of existing.�homes in the Everett area, the average <br />amount of impervious surface per single Lamily lot is 2800 <br />square feet. The applicant should, therefore, multiply 2800 <br />by the number of lots and then add the result to the area of <br />impervious surfac_, contained within any new road cant=sated <br />for the subdivision, to estimate the area of impervious stLr=aca <br />that will ultimately be contained within the plat, <br />=xamnie <br />Given: A 3.0 acre parcel located within North Creek <br />Drainage Basin. The slope of overland flow is 3.5%. Me <br />existing ground cover consists of 2.0 acres of forested <br />la demand 1.0 acre of light grass and sparse tress. The <br />proposed land use is commercial with 5-1 landscaping and <br />95t impervious ground*aovE:ecnditions. <br />Solutior_: From table 1, the design story c-_iteria is a 5 year <br />pre -development story and 25 year post development star=. <br />From table 2 the allowable release rate for the forested <br />portion of the site is by inter--olation .osS cfs/ac. The <br />allowable release rate for the grass area is .230 cfs per <br />acre. The total allowable release rate is therefore <br />(2) (.085) + (1) (.230) or 0.40 cfs. This is .133 cfs per <br />'acre. From table •7, the detention requirement <br />for the <br />landscaping area and impervious area is 885 c_/ace and <br />4009 cf/acre, respectively. The total detention <br />requirement is (.95) (3) (4009) -� (..QS) (3) (88.5-) .o=' 11,558 <br />cf. . <br />
