Ms. Sabrina Fandler <br />City of Everett <br />Public Works Department <br />Engineering/Permit Services 015� August 9, 2016 <br />Please see the second attachment for the criteria in the Planned Action <br />Determination that haven't been met at this time. Of particular importance for this <br />site is the construction management plan. I briefly reviewed the SWPPP that was <br />included in the drainage report and it isn't adequate to address the conditions in the <br />PAD, particularly with respect to implementing the recommendations in the <br />geotechnical report and the provision of a construction phasing plan. It also includes <br />an incorrect description of the proposed construction activities in Section 2.2. On this <br />site, the stormwater detention pond is proposed to serve as the project's sediment <br />control pond. However, requirement #18 prohibits exfiltration from the pond during all <br />phases of construction. How and when will the pond be built and, in particular, lined <br />to prevent exfiltration from the pond? How much clearing will be allowed before this <br />critical facility is constructed? Will the site be cleared and graded all at once? How <br />will the slopes of the pond be protected during clearing and grading? These and <br />additional questions must be answered. <br />Response: The SWPPP has been revised to include a construction sequence and <br />sections revised to include additional construction information. <br />iii. 1 have also reviewed the latest geotechnical report. It appears to me that the only <br />things that were changed from the draft were the cover letter, the project description, <br />and the Exploration Location Plan map, which shows an updated sight plan.. <br />However, as last time, neither the project description nor the site plan accurately <br />match the current site plan in the area of the pond... Given the coordination issues <br />that naturally exist when the geotechnical engineer has to approve the final <br />construction plans, I would highly recommend that the responsible geotechnical <br />engineer be required to actually stamp and sign the construction plans for the <br />detention pond and any pages that include pond -specific construction criteria. In <br />fact, unless the responsible geotechnical engineer does sign the appropriate plans, I <br />will not be willing to sign those plans myself. <br />Response: The Geotech engineer has reviewed the current civil plans and has <br />prepared a memo addressing their review of the plans and will continue to be <br />involved in the project throughout construction. <br />iv. Please also see below for more detailed comments on the plans and drainage report. <br />And again, I am likely to have additional comments once more project -specific <br />information has been provided on the plans and in the report. <br />Response: Comment acknowledged. <br />b. More specific plan/report comments (emailed to applicant on 7120116 and 7/21/16): <br />i. The flow calculations for the internal bypass weir and the two 1.88" orifices of the <br />MWS water quality device must also be included in the calculations and the MWS <br />detail must show the height of the overflow weir. <br />Response: The calculations for the weir and the two orifices are now included in the <br />SSP. The overflow weir height is shown on the MWS details. <br />
