The high groundwater level at this site was recognized during the review of the geotechnical
investigation report for Pinnacle P.U.D. by Empire Laboratories, Inc. which was prepared in
1985.
A recent geotechnical investigation report has been prepared by Terracon of Fort Collins. The
report addresses groundwater conditions and makes specific recommendations concerning the
handling of subsurface flows. All recommendations are accommodated in the final design of
Pinnacle Townhomes final utility plans. All recommendations will be met for the final design of
the actual structures. The report meets the current requirements for groundwater investigations
according to the recently adopted Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards.
White PVC standpipes have been placed on the site. These are for purposes of monitoring
groundwater levels.

All drainage design meets the City of Fort Collins StoTm Drainage Design Criteria and
Congtmction Standards; Fort Collins, CO: May 1984; Revised May, 1997. This includes the
amended rainfall adopted by the City since the 97 flood.
All building elevations have been determined based on FEMA (Federal Emergency Management
Agency) and City of Fort Collins flood protection requirements. Specifically, according to the
following documents:
• Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) City of Fort Collins Colorado. Larimer County
Community -Panel Number 080102 0012 C. Revised March 18, 1996: Federal Emergency
Management Agency National Flood Insurance Program
• Spring Creek floodplain as delineated on Sheet 4 of 25 of the Spring Creek Flood Insurance
Study, prepared by Greenhome & O'Mara.
• Modifications to the Spring Creek 100-year water surface elevations are presented in
Floodylain Modeling Report for Pinnacle P.D.P., prepared by Northern Engineering
Services, Inc.
The finished floor elevations of the two (2) buildings within the floodplain have been set at 1.5'
above the theoretical 100-year water surface elevation according to FEMA requirements. All
buildings with basements have been set so that the lowest basement window opening is not
below the 100-year water surface elevation and the finished grade is a minimum of 42" above the
100-year water surface elevation.
Based on the design for Pinnacle Townhomes, upstream development will not be impacted.
There are no increased flows in Prospect Road due to this development.
