preliminary grading and drainage plans adequately provide for the conveyance and
detention of developed runoff from the proposed development.
If groundwater is encountered during construction, and dewatering is used to
install utilities, a State of Colorado Construction Dewatering Wastewater Discharge
Permit will be required.
Because water quality is important to this developer, water quality mechanism
will be incorporated into all aspects of final design of drainage systems. The proposed
water quality measures proposed in this study will require regular maintenance to
remove deposits as they accumulate. The storm water quality outlet works will release
the first flush of storm water runoff over a period of time in order for pollutants to settle
out of the runoff.
Per the City of Fort Collins Erosion Control Reference Manual for Construction
Sites, at the time of Final Design, the erosion- control performance standard will need to
be calculated and appropriate measures taken to control rain and wind erosion from the
site.
required detention volume of 7.08 cfs, for a total of 8.64 ac.ft. Total volume required.
Based on the preliminary grading plan, the pond as shown provides approximately 8.87
ac.ft. of storage. This is based on a maximum water surface elevation of 4944.0.
There are two irrigation laterals that feed from the Larimer and Weld Canal. The
south lateral was installed to service this farm. The northerly shorter lateral is still in use
by two separate users. This lateral will be replaced with a pipe which will convey flows
to the headgate which provides flows to the user east of this site. The remaining flows
to the user.to the south will be maintained in a piped system (installed previously by the
user). This development will not have a negative impact on either of these two irrigation
users. Improvements will be coordinated with these users.
Drainage in the southeast corner of this site historically drains to a sump area
located adjacent to the Plummer School. Developed runoff from this site will be
intercepted in an open channel prior to entering the Plummer School site, and routed
around to Pond W37. Developed flow from improvements to Summit View will also be
picked up in a proposed curb inlet, and also routed to Pond W37
N, EROSION CONTROL
General Concept
Waterfield PUD lies within the Moderate Rainfall Erodibility Zone, and the
Moderate Wind Erodibility Zone, per the City of Fort Collins zone maps. At the time of
final design, Per the City of Fort Collins Erosion Control Reference Manual for
Construction Sites, the erosion control performance standard will need to be calculated,
and appropriate measures designed to control rain and wind erosion during and after
construction.
All construction activities must also comply with the State of Colorado permitting
process for Stormwater Discharges associated with construction activities. A Colorado
Department of Health NPDES discharge permit will be required before any construction
grading can begin.
y, CONCLUSIONS
Compliance with Standards
All computations within this report have been completed in compliance with the
City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria.
Drainage Concept
The proposed drainage concepts presented in this study and shown on the
The vast majority of the developed runoff from this site will be routed either by
curb and gutter, open channels, or storm sewers to either the existing wetlands or the
proposed detention pond located at the southwest corner of the site. With the exception
of the 100 cfs future release from the regional pond north of this site, no other offsite
flows enter the site. All conveyance elements within the site will be sized to
accommodate the proposed 100 cfs release rate from upstream. These flows will be
routed through the wetland area and the proposed onsite detention pond. It is unknown
when these future improvements, including the siphon under Larimer and Weld canal
will be installed.
Detention for the site has been based on the difference between the 2 yr historic
and the 100 year developed flows. Only those areas that historically drain to lake canal
have been used to calculate the allowable release rate from the site. The historic
contributory area to Lake canal is approximately 121.5 acres. The maximum allowable
release rate into Lake Canal has been calculated to be approximately 25.51 cfs.
Small portions of the site (Developed basins 38 and 39) will be released
undetained. Basin 38 (a portion of Vine Drive lower than elevation 4944) is that area of
Vine Drive unable to be physically routed into the onsite detention pond. Developed
runoff from this basin will be released directly into Lake canal via a proposed curb inlet
located adjacent to the canal. This undetained flow was accounted for in calculating the
total allowable release from the site, and in sizing the proposed detention ponds. Basin
39 (a small portion of the developed site in the northeast comer of the site) will be
released into Larimer and Weld canal undetained.
Approximately 77.12 acres of this development will be routed through the
existing wetlands. Peak 100 year flows to the wetlands were calculated to be
approximately 344 cfs, including 100 cfs from upstream contribution. This will provide
water to the wetland area, as well as provide a water quality mechanism for developed
runoff. Detention storage was calculated from elevation 4950 to elevation 4952 only. A
release structure will be incorporated into the wetlands which would maintain a
permanent water surface elevation at 4950. An overflow weir would be installed at
elevation 4952 which would prevent water from ponding beyond that elevation.
Preliminary calculations show that this 2 foot interval would provide approximately
16.58 ac.ft. Of storage. Utilizing the FAA method for sizing small detention ponds, and
using a release rate of 12.75 cfs, the required volume needed would be 7.62 ac.ft. Total
downstream release from the pond would be 12.75 cfs from onsite plus 100 cfs from
upstream contributions (112.75 cfs total).
The site detention pond (Pond W37) will have approximately 65.01 acres of
contributory area. 100 year peak inflow into the pond was calculated to be
approximately 316.1 cfs (including 100 cfs from upstream plus 12.75 cfs release from
the wetlands). Water quality storage volume for 65.01 acres is approximately 1.3 ac.ft
plus an additional 0.26 ac.ft. volume for sediment. Based on a release rate of 14.61 cfs
(25.51 cfs allowable minus 10.9 released from Basin 38), the FAA method gave a
To calculate the historic flows, used to determine the allowable historic release
from the site to Lake Canal, Basins H-1 through H-4 were used. Developed flows
located in historic basin H-5 will be routed to Lake Canal. A small portion of the
northeast corner of the site will also release into the Larimer and Weld Canal.
As mentioned above there is an existing wetlands located on this site. A report
entitled "Jurisdictional Wetlands Delineation Survey for the Country Club Farms LLC,
Larimer County, Colorado" by Riverside Technology was prepared for this wetland, and
submitted to the City under separate cover. A copy of the wetland delineation map has
been included in the appendix of this report.

Drainage criteria outlined in both the City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design
Criteria Manual. and Storm Drainage Criteria Manual by the Urban Drainage and Flood
Control District have been used for this Preliminary Drainage Study.
The Rational Method was used to estimate peak stormwater runoff from the
proposed site. The 2 year storm event and the 100 year storm event was used to
evaluate the proposed drainage system. Rainfall intensity data for the Rational method
was taken from the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Utility Intensity curves (Figure 3-1).
City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Criteria has been used for all hydraulic
calculations. In addition, the detention volumes required for this development have
been sized using the FAA method for detention ponds developed by the UDFCD was
used.
Per the Master plan for the Cooper Slough, the developed runoff from this site is
to be routed to the Lake Canal (See the attached sketch from the Master plan in the
appendix of this report). This Master plan also shows the installation of a regional
detention facility northeast of this site, adjacent to the Larimer and Weld Canal and
Summit View Drive. Per the Master plan, this pond would provide approximately 36
ac.ft. of detention storage volume, with a maximum release rate of 100 cfs. These
guidelines, established by that Master plan have served as basis of this preliminary
design.
Preliminary Drainage Report
for
Waterfield PUD
The Waterfield PUD development is located at the northwest corner of East
Vine Drive (County Road 48) and Summit View (County Road 9E) . The site is also
bounded on the north by the Larimer and Weld County Canal. The existing Plummer
School is located to the southeast of this site. The site can also be described as a
portion of the southwest quarter of Section 5, Township 7 North, Range 68 West of the
6th PM, City of Fort Collins, Larimer County, Colorado. A vicinity map of the site is
included in the appendix of this report.
This site includes approximately 140 acres. The site is presently undeveloped,
has most recently been used for agricultural purposes. The site generally slopes from
the west to the east at slopes between 1 % and 5%. There is an existing wetlands
located on site, which occupies approximately 11.50 acres.
Plans for this site include the development of single-family units, multi -family
units, patio homes, an elementary school, a city park, and a small commercial pad site.
This site is located within the Cooper Slough Master Drainage Basin. A copy of
an excerpt from the Cooper Slough Master plan pertinent to this site has been included
in the appendix of this report.
Historically, the vast majority of the site drains to the existing Lake Canal,
located at the southwest comer of the site. A copy of the existing site, with the historic
drainage basins has been included in the appendix of this report. Basins H-1 and H-2
drain south to existing irrigation laterals and on south to Lake Canal. Basin H-3 drains
to the existing wetland area, and then on to Lake Canal. Basin H-4 drains directly to
Lake Canal. Basin H-5, located at the southeast corner of the site, drains to an existing
low point located around the old Plummer School. Drainage from this basin would
eventually overtop Summit View, and drain to the east. Basin H-6, located in the
extreme northeast corner of the site, drains to the existing Larimer and Weld Canal.
Virtually no offsite drainage enters the site.
