, <br /> ; Pacific Topsoils Rhrerside site�torm Drainege Report <br /> GFK Consulting Inc. <br /> 4 DESIGN OVERVIEW AND STANDARDS <br /> The subject site contains two surface typas that have a great affect on rainfall as it falls onto <br /> the site. Approximately 4.0 acres is covered with an asphalt cap, the remaining 4.4 acres <br /> consists of an earthen cap originally designed to infiltrate rainfall and has been observed to <br /> do so. All runoff from the site drains into the Snohomish River which is listed as a receiving <br /> water body so no stream bank erosion control or detention is considered in this design. <br /> No material proceasing is being conducted on the earthen capped area and because it <br /> infiftrates adequately, should provide natural water quality treatment and will not be included <br /> in this design. The asphalt capped area is where the wood material processing is undertaken <br /> and open stockpiles are exposed to rainfall. This is the area subject to concentrated runoff <br /> and is the are� considered in this design. <br /> Runoff will be calculated using the SBUH methodology using Waterworks soflware and a <br /> water quality rainfall event of 1.12 ". This will be compared with runoff calculated using <br /> W1NHM3 with a correction factor applied. The two runoff values will be compared and the <br /> most conserva'ive will be used for design. The 1997 COE Stormwater Manual will seNs as <br /> the design guide for water quality treatment. <br /> Runoff from the paved area is cuRently collected within perimeter asphalt gutters along the <br /> south and east edges and is conveyed to the south east comer where it is then discharged <br /> directly into the Snohomish River. These gutters intercept 100% of the runoff generated from <br /> the asphalt yard area and have adequate capacity to convey 't. While it makes sense to <br /> intercept the untreated flow at the discharge, it is located within the buffer area associated <br /> with the Snohomish River and no new stortnwater facilities are allowed within this buffer. As a <br /> result, this design proposes the improvement of existing conveyance facilities to include water <br /> quality treatment. <br /> Most of the subject site has been contaminated by prior uses and the caps placed to contain <br /> these contaminates are not to be penetrated. Integrated into the downslope perimeter of the <br /> asphalt cap are two drainage swales that are outside of the underground cap and banier <br /> walls installed to isolate the contaminated material within. This design proposed modification <br /> of 100' of the lower sections of both ditches transforming them intc, i�nctioning bio-swales. <br /> 8/20/2010 5 / //, ` � <br /> C:\Project data\Project files\PTopsoils Rluerside site\Reports\Riverside4.doc l�/�j� <br />
