INSTALLATION SCHEDULE
Construction of New Belgium Brewery is proposed to start in mid -march 1995 and
continue during the winter with the floors, grading and paving completed by of May
1995. The approximate date of implementation of the erosion control measure during
construction are shown on Standard Form C in Appendix I.I. As shown on Form. C the
silt fence will be constructed prior to overlot grading. Paving,of the parking and walk
areas is scheduled to begin in May be complete by June. Permanent vegetation will
be seeded and mulched during the fall planting season beginning in August prior to the
next wind erosion season. The silt fence will be left in place until landscaping is
complete and establishment of the permanent grass cover.
EROSION CONTROL SECURITY
The erosion control security requirement for the New Belgium Brewery site was
estimated based on the specification of Section 2.0 of the Manual. The cost of the
erosion control measures at the site as detailed above were estimated to cost $1,000
with a security requirement of $1,500. The estimated cost to revegetate the disturbed
areas with a dryland grass mix according to the city's 1993 mulch and revegetation
bid was $2,600 with a security requirement of $3,900. The larger amount is required
prior to construction. Both cost estimates are detailed in Appendix II.

WIND EROSION ANALYSIS
The surface soils at the New Belgium Brewery site are rated as low to moderately wind
erodible. Construction at the site will occur during the end of the windy season of
November to May and the site does not fall under any of the exclusions available in the
Manual.
Construction disturbance at the site as detailed above will occur across the entire site.
The limited size of the construction area and the necessary access in this area will
restrict the available area for placement of a wind barrier. For this reason the wind
erosion features to be constructed at the site will consist primarily of natural features
at the site, water erosion controls and the features to be constructed.
The wind erosion control measures which will be implemented during construction will
include the items listed below and are located on Figure 2.
• The Coy Ditch along the southwest margin of Lot 1.
• The silt fence along the entire south and east margin of Lot 1.
• The proposed soil stockpile to be located on in the northeast corner of Lot 1.
• The stormwater detention pond berms along the north of Lot 1.
• The walls and structural fill of the building.
• The paved parking and walk areas.
• The proposed vertical curbing along the south and west sides of the Site.
Wind erosion control measures which will be implemented after construction will
consist of mulching and seeding the disturbed areas. Hay or straw mulch will be
applied and crimped into the soil surface at a rate of 2 tons per acre after seeding of
the site. The topsoil stockpile will be removed when the mulch is applied. The
remainder of the wind erosion control features will remain intact to counter soil loss
during vegetative establishment.

1.1
Practice Factor Measures
Sediment control practice measures for the New Belgium Brewery development will
consist of the construction of a silt fence. The location and the silt fence is shown on
Figure 2.
.Practice factor measures for the site after construction will be dismantled and thus a
weighted P - Factor of 1.0 was used to calculate the effectiveness. The calculations
for the weighted P - Factor for areas contributing to the ponds A and B for both during
and after construction cases are presented on Standard Form B in Appendix II.
Cover Factor Measures
Cover factor measures for the site during construction will consist of the building and
the parking areas. The building and paved areas were assigned a C - Factor value of
0.01. The soil stockpile area will be located along the northeast property line for Lot
1.
Cover factor measures for the site after construction is completed will consist of
implementation of the landscaping plan which calls for establishment of grass cover
of at least 60 percent over the disturbed, non -landscaped areas of the site. Grass will
be established with the use of hay or straw mulch applied and secured at a rate of 2
tons per acre. The mulched and revegetated areas were assigned C - Factor values of
0.06 as selected from Table 5.2 and Figure 5.1. Cover factor values for the paved
areas and the undisturbed grassed areas were not changed from during construction
conditions. The calculations for the weighted C - Factor for areas contributing to the
Pond A and B for both during and after construction are presented on Standard Form
B in Appendix II.
"During Construction" Effectiveness Evaluation
The Net Effectiveness for the erosion control measures at the site during construction
was calculated as 75.8 percent and exceeds the "During Construction" Performance
Standard value of 75.5 percent. The Net Effectiveness was calculated using basin
effectiveness values of 78.2 and 70.0 percent for basins A and B, respectively.
Calculations of the basin effectiveness value and the Net Effectiveness for the site are
presented on Standard Form B in Appendix II.
"After Construction" Effectiveness Evaluation
The Net Effectiveness for the erosion control measures at the site after construction
t was calculated as 96.6 percent and exceeds the "After Construction" Performance
Standard value of 89.3 percent. The Net Effectiveness was calculated using basin
effectiveness values of 96.8 and 96.0 percent for basin A and B, respectively.
Calculations of the basin effectiveness value and the Net Effectiveness for the site are
presented on Standard Form B in Appendix II.

WIND AND RAINFALL EROSION EVALUATION
Site Soils
The Larimer County, Soil Conservation Service Soils Report identifies the soils as
_ belonging to the Caruso Clay Loam which is described as having slight rainfall
' erodibility. The rainfall erosion season as detailed in the City of Fort Collins, Erosion
Control Reference Manual (21 (the Manual) is between May 1 and October 31. The
natural drainage of the site is from the northwest to southeast where runoff is ponded
north of the Coy Ditch. A mixture of dryland grass cover currently provides an
estimated 70 percent cover over the entire site.
The Manual details the site as having low to moderate wind erodibility characteristics.
The Manual states the predominant wind direction is from the west-northwest in this
area. The wind erosion season as detailed in the Manual is between November 1 st and
May 31 st.
Construction at the Site is estimated to begin in mid -March 1995 and continue through
August of 1995, with the majority of the structural and grading work completed by
July of 1995. This schedule places the project within the .wind and rain erosion
seasons.
Performance Standard
The estimated "During Construction" and "After Construction" Performance Standard
for the New Belgium Brewery are 75.5 and 89.3 percent, respectively. For the
purpose of estimating the site's Performance Standard the entire site was broken into
two separate basin areas based on the final development contours. The basins, as
shown on Figure 2 consist of:
• 2.48 acre Basin A, located south and east of the buildings and draining
1 generally south to Detention Pond A, and
• 1 .04 acre Basin B, located west and southwest of the buildings draining to the
' south to Detention Pond B.
The Performance Standard for the site was estimated using the methods detailed in the
Manual and the estimated, average slope length and slope for each basin. Flow
lengths and slopes developed for calculation of the "During Construction" Performance
Standard are presented on Standard Form A in Appendix II. The Performance Standard
was taken from Table 5.1 of the Manual. The "After Construction" Performance
11 Standard is calculated by dividing the "During Construction" Performance Standard by
0.85.

At Design Point B the flow from Point A will combine with the 2-year flows from Lots
2 and 3 and the Streets Facilities. The peak flow leaving the manhole is estimated to
be approximately 5.76 cfs. This flow will be conveyed to the south in two 15", N-12,
' ADS pipes to the existing ROW west of 1 st Street. The ROW extends 20' west of the
quarter section line with only 9' paved. These pipes will extend approximately 75'
south of the manhole• to a point wherethey can be daylighted by minor excavation
' along :the -ROW. The pipes were mgdele.d using Mlanning's equation with n = 0.012
and a slope of 0.15 percent. With these conditions the full flow capacity of each pipe
will be 3.2 cfs.

The historic 2-year peak runoff from the site was estimated for Basins A and B to
establish the allowable discharges from Detention Ponds A and B. Time of
concentrations of 33 and 23 minutes were estimated for Basins A and B, respectively,
using conventional methods for the City of Fort Collins and Denver Drainage Criteria
[21 [3]. Based on these time of concentrations the peak flows for the 2-year storm
events are 0.33 and 0.50 cubic feet'persecond (cfs), respectively,.
The required capacity for Detention Ponds A and B were established based on a mass
balance for each pond using the post -development runoff coefficients for Basins A and
B with the 100-year storm event and the allowable release rates for each basin as
detailed in the paragraph above. Tabular representations of the mass balances are
presented in Appendix I. Based on these estimates the maximum storage required in
Detention Pond A and Pond B is 16,700 and 5,600 cubic feet, respectively. The
storage volume provided in ponds A and B is 18,300 and 6,500 cubic feet,
respectively.
The hydraulics of the primary spillway for Pond A was evaluated using the Hazen -
Williams equation with the pond at full stage and a tailwater level in the curb inlet box
at the gutter flowline. Under these conditions (anticipated during large storm events)
the peak release flow will be approximately 0.69 cfs which slightly exceeds the
allowable release rate of 0.65 cfs.
The hydraulics of the primary spillway for Pond B was evaluated assuming the pipe
entrance will act as the constriction. Under maximum head the flow through the
entrance to the pipe will be approximately 0.42 cfs which slightly exceeds the
allowable release rate of 0.35 cfs and will decrease with time as the head falls off.
Off Site Hydrology and Hydraulics:
The 10-year storm event was estimated at the 4', sump curb inlet in the north flowline
of Buckingham. An area of approximately 0.5 acres with a runoff coefficient of 0.95
and a time of concentration of 10 minutes was use to estimate the peak flow of 2.16
cfs. The curb inlet will be capable of collecting approximately 4.0 cfs although the
outlet pipe from the box will only handel 3.2 cfs at full flow.
Combined Lots 2 and 3 plus the specified 2-year releases from the Streets Facilities
were used to estimate the historic 2-year peak runoff and release rate to Design Point
B. A runoff coefficient of 0.20 was used for the historic, existing conditions of the
site consisting of dry -land grasses on gentle 0.5 to 1 percent slopes. An area of 4.15
acres with a time of concentration of 39 minutes was used to estimate a peak flow
of 0.996 cfs.
The 2-year release rate from the tributary areas of the city Streets Facilities, as detailed
in Attachment A, is 1.6 cfs. This represents the 2-year release rate from 3.9 acres to
the north of Parcel 5.
The combined peak flow from Lot 1 and the tributary street area at Design Point A is
3.16 cfs. This flow will be conveyed east to the manhole at Design Point B through
a 15", N-12, ADS pipe. The pipe was modeled using Manning's equation with n =
0.012 and a slope of 0.15 percent with a full flow capacity of 3.2 cfs.
Details
The two 15" N-12, ADS pipes conveying flows south from Point B to the west ROW
of 1 st Street have been sized to convey the 2-year storm releases from the upstream
tributary areas as explained above.
Linden and Buckingham Streets: Drainage from Linden and Buckingham streets
adjacent to Lots 1,2 and 3 will drain either to.the existing curb inlets located in the
west flowline of Linden or the proposed-4', sump, curb inlet at the vertical, sag curve
in the north flowline of Buckingham Street. This is a continuation of the existing
drainage patterns for these roadways and will serve to provide rapid drainage to the
Poudre River of these areas in close proximity to the river.
Linden Street from the point of curvature (PC), 100' south of the joint access to Lots
1 and 2, will sheet drain across the existing and extended superelevation to the west
flowline of Linden and to the two, 4', sump, curb inlets in the flowline. These curb
inlets discharge to the Coy Ditch and it's spillover which flows directly to the Poudre
River along the northwest side of Linden.
The 4', sump, curb inlet at Design Point A will collect flows from the roadway from
the high point at the intersection of 1 st and Buckingham and half the streets from the
PC in Linden to the sump. The sump was designed to collect flows in excess of the
10-year storm event. Drainage from the curb inlet will be limited by the pipe capacity
from the box. Drainage in excess of the 10-year storm event will spill across the
crown of Buckingham and drain to the Poudre River via the historic oxbow.
Coy Ditch: Construction within the Coy Ditch easement will consist of two culverts
to allow access to the parking and truck dock areas. These culverts were designed to
convey the maximum flows for the Coy Ditch allotment of 31.5 cfs. A single 3' and
two, 2', N-12, ADS pipes will be used under the parking area and truck dock entrance,
respectively. The 3' pipe will not back up headwater at the design flow and thus will
not undermine the performance of the flume approximately 10' upstream of the
headwall. The two, 2' pipes will back up headwater sufficient to drive the design flow
through the pipes on the flat grade.
Support for the following discussion will be found in the calculations in Appendix I and
on the drawings furnished with this report. As stated above, the Rational Method was
used for drainage estimates.
Lot 1, Basins A and B:
The site was divided into drainage basins A and B, for analysis purposes. The basins
are detailed on Figure 2. The composite runoff coefficients for developed conditions
of 0.65 and 0.56 were estimated for Basins A and B, respectively. These values were
derived with runoff coefficients of 0.95 for impervious surfaces and 0.25 for pervious
surfaces. The area summary table at the beginning of Appendix I provides a breakdown
of the types of surface used to estimate the composite runoff coefficients. The
Drainage Summary Table provides areas, runoff coefficients, times of concentration,
rainfall intensities, and peak flows.
DRAINAGE DESIGN
Concept
Drainage from Lots 1, 2 and 3 will drain to Design Points A and B as shown on Figure
2. Drainage from Lot 1 will flow to two separate detention basins, Ponds A and B.
Ponds A and B will pond and detain the runoff difference between the -land 100-year.
storm events. Releases from Lot 1 will flow to Design Point A, a 4', sump curb inlet
at the sag vertical curve created by the street expansion along the north side of
Buckingham Street. From the curb inlet the drainage will flow in a 15" N-12, ADS pipe
in the north Buckingham Right -Of -Way (ROW) to the manhole at Design Point B. Flows
from Lots 2 and 3, when developed, will be collected at Point B. From the manhole,
flows it will turn south and drain to the existing street ROW west of 1 st Street. Flow
from the manhole will be carried in two, 15", N-12, ADS pipes to a point
approximately 75' south of the manhole where it will daylight to a roadside depression
and flow in the historic river meander to the Poudre River.
Lot 1, Basin A: Basin A, consisting of the building, truck dock and future
facilities,.will drain to Pond A located along the south and east margins of the building.
Pond A will be formed by a low berm along its margins and a rise in the truck dock
entrance from Buckingham. The primary spillway from Pond A will consist of a 4"
PVC pipe with the inlet located north of the Coy Ditch and west of the truck dock
facility entrance. The pipe will traverse the west side of the truck dock entrance over
the two, 24" ADS pipes conveying the Coy Ditch flows and drain into the back of the
4' curb inlet at Design Point A. The emergency spillway for Pond A will be formed by
the entrance ramp and allow excess flow to drain to Buckingham Street.
Drainage from the northeast portion of Basin A will be conveyed to the primary
spillway via overland flows to a concrete pan in the truck ramp, then through a 6" PVC
pipe under a forklift ramp extending from the south corner of the building and to the
spillway in a 4' concrete pan. Drainage from the building and areas southwest of the
building will drain to the primary spillway via overland and pan flows as shown on
Figure 2.
Lot 1, Basin B: Basin B, consisting of the south and west parking and plaza areas,
will drain to Pond B located in the turnaround at the end of the parking area. Pond B
will be formed by a berm and the turnaround curbing adjacent to the Coy Ditch. The
primary spillway from Pond B will consist of a 4" PVC pipe with the inlet at the low
point in the gutter of the turnaround and drain to a sidewalk culvert under the sidewalk
to the proposed north flowline of Buckingham Street. The emergency spillway for
Pond B will be formed by a low area in the berm with excess flows draining down the
face of the vegetated berm to the north flow line of Buckingham. Drainage will be
conveyed to Pond A by overland flow to the parking area and then in the southwest
gutter to the primary spillway at the east end of the turnaround.
Lots 2. 3 and Streets Facilities: Drainage from Lots 2, 3 and the city Streets
Facilities when fully developed will pond and detain the difference between the 2 and
100-year storm events. The released water will be conveyed over Lots 2 and 3 to the
southeast corner of Lot 3 where it can be drained to the manhole at Design Point B.
IDRAINAGE BASIN IDENTIFICATION
Description
■ The site is situated in the Poudre River drainage basin as identified in the Basin Master
Plan. Tributary drainage to Parcel 5 consist of approximately 3.9 acres located in the
East Vine Street P.U.D. (Streets Facilities). This drainage is conveyed to Parcel 5 via
a road side ditch on the east side of Linden from the west access to the Street
Facilities, and flows southeast to a low spot at the southeast corner of Lot 3.
Drainage from Lots 1, 2 and 3 drain to the same point as shown on Figure 2. The
precedent for drainage control in this area was set by the Streets Facilities drainage
Plan [ 1 ]• This plan sets the detention requirement for the property at the difference
between the 2-year and 100-year storm events and that the released water shall flow
to the Poudre River over contiguous property. A copy of the pertinent report pages is
included as Attachment A to this report.
DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
Regulations
The City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria [2] is being used as the basis
for this report.
Develooment Criteria Constraints
Neither off site detention nor downstream drainage capacity for the 100-year storm
event exist for Lots 1 through 3. Therefore, these properties will have to detain
stormwater on site and release at the 2-year historic discharge for the property for
storm events up to the 100-year storm event in accordance with the requirements
established with the Streets Facilities.
Hydrologic Criteria
The Rational Method was used to predict the peak and cumulative runoff from the
proposed development. The 100-year and 2-year storms events were used as the
basis of design of the drainage systems for New Belgium Brewery. Calculations are
included in Appendix I.
Calculations
All calculations for this report have been made in accordance with criteria established
by the City of Fort Collins.
Variances
No variances are requested with this project.

DEVELOPMENT LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
Location
New Belgium Brewery shall be a micro -brewery consisting of a one story structure
housing brewing facilities and office space. The facility will have frontage along Linden
Street as shown on Figure 1. The site is located at the northeast corner of Linden and
Buckingham Streets. Specifically, the site consist of Lot 1 encompassing an area of
3.76 acres which will be subdivided from an existing Parcel 5 (Lots 1,2 and 3) of 7.96
acre. A proposed street widening right-of-way exists to the south of Parcel 5
consisting of 0.49 acres. The site lies in the northeast quarter of the northwest
quarter of Section 12, Township 7 North, Range 69 West, City of Fort Collins, County
of Larimer, State of Colorado.
Prooerty Description
The property the New Belgium Brewery (the Site) will occupy is currently undeveloped.
It is presently covered with dry -land grasses and slopes from the northwest to
southeast at a gradient of less than 1 percent. Historic drainage from the Site was to
the south, southeast to an oxbow meander, which existed around the turn of the
century. The oxbow butted to the south side of what is now Buckingham Street and
the west side of 1st Street. Drainage from the site was cut off by construction of
Buckingham Street in the early 1900s and relocation of the Coy Ditch to the north side
of the street. No positive drainage has been established for the property.
