The 100-year water surface elevation of the wetland/detention area needs to be plotted to see if there is some detention storage on this site. If it is and the access requires fill, the fill volume needs to be compensated for by excavation to the west end of the site. 4. There is an old pipe crossing the site that used to drain the wetland. This should be considered in building construction. It may need to be removed since it could transport water where it is not wanted. 5. Onsite extended detention is required to treat the runoff.
