VII. CONCLUSIONS
' A. Compliance with Standards
' All computations within this report have been completed in compliance with the City
of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria. The City of Fort Collins Storm
water Utility will not maintain the on -site storm drainage facilities within the Pads at
' Harmony site. The owners of the Pads at Harmony site will maintain their on -site
storm drainage facilities on a regular basis.
B. Drainage Concept
The proposed drainage concepts presented in this study and those shown on the final
'
utility plans will adequately provide for the transmission of developed on -site runoff
to the proposed detention ponds. The combination of on -site street capacities and the
on -site storm sewer system will provide for the developed flows to reach the
'
proposed detention ponds. The sizes, locations and release rates of these ponds will
allow the Pads at Harmony site to develop in conformance with the Fox Meadows
Drainage Master Planning concepts accepted by the City of Fort Collins.
'
If groundwater is encountered at the time of construction, a Colorado Department of
Health Construction Dewatering Permit will be required.
C. Storm Water Ouality
Storm water quality will be addressed through the use of gravel inlet filters, erosion
control fence, grass -lined detention ponds, and extended detention with the Front
'
Range Village development.
D. Erosion Control Concept
The proposed erosion control concepts will adequately provide for the control of
wind and rainfall erosion from the Pads at Harmony site. 'Through the construction
of the proposed erosion control concepts, the City of Fort Collins performance
'
standards will be met.
'
The Pads at Harmony site lies within the Moderate Rainfall Erodibility Zone and the
Moderate Wind Erodibility Zone per the City of Fort Collins zone maps. The
'
potential exists for erosion problems during construction, and after construction until
the disturbed ground is re -vegetated or paved. There should be minimal to no erosion
'
problems after completion of construction.
The computed Erosion Control Performance Standards (PS) before and after
construction is 80.4 and 94.6 respectively. Furthermore, the effectiveness values
during and after construction are 95.6 and 98.3 respectively. These computed values
meet the City of Fort Collins requirements and can be seen in Appendix C.
'
An erosion control escrow cost estimate of $24,993 (price includes 50% contingency)
is also included in Appendix C. This represents the cost to re -seed and provide the
'
required erosion control methods for the site.
B. Specific Details
'
A silt fence will be installed prior to grading of the site, as shown on the drainage and
erosion control plan. All other disturbed areas not in a roadway or greenbelt area
'
shall have temporary vegetation seed applied within 30 days of initial disturbance.
After seeding, a hay or straw mulch shall be applied over the seed at a rate of 1.5-
tons/acre minimum, and the mulch shall be adequately anchored, tacked, or crimped
'
into the soil. Those areas that are to be paved must have a 1-inch layer of gravel
mulch applied at a rate of at least 135 tons/acre 30 days after overlot grading is
'
completed. The pavement structure shall be applied within 30 days after the utilities
have been installed.
' If the disturbed areas will not be built on within one growing season, a permanent
seed shall be applied. After seeding, a hay or straw mulch shall be applied over the
seed at a minimum rate of 1.5 tons/acre, and the mulch shall be adequately anchored,
' tacked or crimped into the soil. In the event a portion of the roadway pavement
surface and utilities will not be constructed for an extended period of time after
overlot grading, a temporary vegetation seed and mulch shall also be applied to the
roadway areas as discussed above.
All construction activities must also comply with the State of Colorado permitting
' process for Stormwater Discharges Associated with Construction Activity. A
Colorado Department of Health NPDES permit has been obtained such that
construction grading can continue within this development.

southeast towards design point 106 and combines with that from basins 100,103, and
104 in the proposed manhole.
The combined 32.9 cfs flow from basins 100, 103, 104, and 105 will be conveyed
east in the proposed storm drain, then north through the Front Range Village site, and
into the proposed detention pond in the northwest corner of the Front Range Village
site. It is important to again note that this is contingent upon the agreement between
the developers of the Front Range Village and The Pads at Harmony.
Pond Sizing
Pond sizing was computed using the modified FAA method from the Urban Drainage
Website. Basins 100 and 104 were partially detained with a maximum outflow set at
5 cfs for each pond. This provided for partial detention of the site, thus reducing the
flow to the Front Range Village detention pond.
V. STORM WATER QUALITY
A. General Concept
Storm Water Quality will be provided through extended detention in the Front Range
Village detention pond system.
B. Specific Details
Best Management Practices (BMP) for the treatment of storm water runoff will be
provided through the use of gravel inlet filters, erosion control fence, and grass -lined
detention ponds 1 and 2. Erosion control fence shall be installed where shown in the
final plans. Gravel inlet filters shall be installed as shown on the erosion control
plan. Erosion control calculations have been provided in Appendix C.
VI. EROSION CONTROL
A. General Concept
Silt fence, tracking pads, straw bale check dams, mulching, and erosion control fabric
' will be utilized to minimize erosion on the Pads at Harmony site. Please see the
Drainage and Erosion Control Exhibit located in the map pocket.

1 The historic release of the Pads at Harmony site was calculated using a "c" of 0.3, an
intensity of 5 in/hr, and an area of 9.98 acres. This provides for a historic runoff of
' approximately 15 cfs. Utilizing the controlled release of 10 cfs between Ponds 1 and
2, the combined 100-year rational outflow from the north and south portions of the
Pads at Harmony site is 32.90 cfs (northeast corner of the site as flow is routed north
' and through the Front Range Village Site). Therefore, the Pads at Harmony is
increasing the historic runoff by approximately 17.9 cfs.
Basins 100 & 104
' Grading of the areas south of the proposed buildings will allow runoff to flow south
towards the proposed 2' concrete trickle pans. The trickle pans will convey the storm
flows east and into detention Ponds 1 and 2 (design points 100 and 104). It is
important to note that 12" ADS storm drain pipes will be installed on the north side
of the berms to allow runoff to flow south and into the proposed trickle pans.
' Ponds 1 and 2 will each have two basins for each pond, thus forming equalizer
ponds. Proposed 15" storm drainpipes will be installed between the pond basins to
allow pedestrian access flyover. The ponds will utilize 4:1 side slopes and dry
' stacked sandstone walls to keep pond sizes small, while meeting the detention
requirements for the controlled releases.
' Ponds 1 and 2 will have CDOT Type D inlets installed in the east ends of the ponds.
The inlets will have 15" outfall storm drains with orifice plates bolted to the inside of
the inlets. The orifice plates will restrict flow out of the ponds to 5cfs (see
' calculations in Appendix B). These controlled releases will provide partial detention
of the site, thus reducing the flows to the Front Range Village pond.
Pond 1 will release 5 cfs north in the proposed 15" storm drain towards design point
103A, where the flow combines with that from basin 103. Pond 2 will also release 5
' cfs north in the proposed 15" storm drain towards design point 106, where the flow
combines with that from basin 100, 103, and 105.
' Basins 103 & 105
Basins 103 and 105 make up primarily the parking lots for the site. Basin 103
' conveys its runoff northeast toward design point 103, where a 15' Type R Inlet (in
sump) captures the 100-year flow. The flow is routed east in the proposed 24" storm
drain to design point 103A, where the controlled flow from basin 100 combines with
' the flow from basin 103. The combined flow is routed east in the proposed 30"
storm drain towards design point 106.
t Meanwhile, basin 105 also conveys its flow northeast towards design point 105,
where a 15' Type R Inlet (in sump) captures the 100-year flow. The flow is routed
3
' The Pads at Harmony site accounts for approximately 9.05 acres. Storm flows from a
portion of the north side of Harmony Road and also the south sides of the Pads at
' Harmony site will be conveyed to the two proposed detention ponds. The two ponds
will provide partial detention for the site and release at 5.0 cfs (10 cfs total).
'
The remaining portion of the Pads at Harmony site will be conveyed to two, proposed
Type R Inlets in the northeast corners of the two parking lots. The captured runoff
'
will be routed in the proposed storm drain to the northeast corner of the site. The
runoff from the Type R Inlets, as well as the detained releases from the detention
ponds will combine at the northeast corner of the Pads at Harmony site. The
combined runoff is tentatively planned to be routed north and into the detention pond
'
in the northwest corner of the Front Range Village site.
It is important to note that the agreement to provide the remaining required detention
'
and all of the water quality for the Pads at Harmony site, in the Front Range Village
detention pond is solely between the developers of the two said properties.

B. Specific Details
' The Pads at Harmony site contains approximately 9.05 acres. The site has been
broken down into 4 drainage basins. The south portion of the site (basins 100 and
104) contains the south half of the buildings, green space, and a segment of the north
side of Harmony Road, adjacent to the site.
' The north portion of the site (basins 103 and 105) contains the parking lot and north -
half of the buildings. Runoff from the south portion of the site and the north side of
Harmony Road (basins 100 and 104) will be routed east along the north side of
Harmony Road and into the two, proposed detention ponds. Runoff from the north
portion of the site will be conveyed to two, proposed inlets in the northeast corners of
the parking lots.
'
Ultimately, the flows from the north and south portions of the site combine at the
northeast corner of the site and are conveyed north, through the Front Range Village
Site, and into the proposed detention pond in the northwest corner of the Front Range
'
Village site. It is important to note that this is contingent upon the agreement
between the developers of Front Range Village and Pads at Harmony properties.
The proposed detention ponds will only provide partial detention and no water
quality. Therefore, it is assumed that the agreement between the developers will
'
provide that detention for basins 100 and 104 of the Pads at Harmony site and all of
the water quality for the Pads at Harmony site (0.33 ac-ft) will be provided for in the
Front Range Village development.

' III. DRAINAGE BASIN CRITERIA
' A. Regulations
' The City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria is being used for the subject
site.
' B. Development Criteria Reference and Constraints
The criteria and constraints from The City of Fort Collins Master Plan and the Fox
' Meadows Basin Drainage Master Plan Update will be utilized in this Drainage Study.
C. Hydrologic Criteria
Since the Pads at Harmony site is only 9.05 acres, the modified FAA method was
used to size the detention ponds for the site. Furthermore, rational calculations have
' been provided in Appendix B for the site, as well as storm drain sizing using
UDInlet, and UDSewer.
' D. Hydraulic Criteria
All calculations within this study have been prepared in accordance with the City of
' Fort Collins Storm Drainage Criteria. Detention pond sizing was computed using the
modified FAA method.
' F. Variance
A variance for 0.70' and 0.75' of freeboard for Ponds 1 and 2 respectively is being
requested to minimize the height of walls in the detention ponds and provide a more
aesthetic look with the surrounding grading. "
IV. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
' A. General Concept
The purpose of this report is to address the storm drainage flows from the
' development of the Pads at Harmony site.
