Q
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 adequately provide for the transmission
of developed on -site runoff to the retention pond south of the New Mercer
Canal.The remainder of the site is adequately routed onto Prospect Drive
per the concept Prospect Road Improvement Storm Drainage Study.
STORM WATER (QUALITY
Storm water quality aspects have been considered in the design of
Summerhill P.U.D.. The retention pond south of the New Mercer Canal
provides for the filtering of pollutants from a large portion of the site, while
a low velocity drainage swale provides for filtering for the remainder of the
site.
Erosion Control Concept
The proposed erosion control concepts adequately provide for the control
of wind and rainfall erosion from the Summerhill P.U.D.. Through the
construction of the proposed erosion control concepts, the City of Fort
Collins performance standards will be met. The proposed erosion control
concepts presented in this report and shown on the erosion control plan
are in compliance with the City of Fort Collins erosion control criteria.
IM
Flows from the southwest portion of the site and from the area west of the
site are directed to the retention basin south of the canal. The retention
basin will be able to filter out any pollutants as water seeps away into the
soil.
EROSION CONTROL
A. General Concept
The Summerhill P.U.D. is in the High Rainfall and Moderate Wind Erodibility
Zones per the City of Fort Collins zone maps. The potential exists for
erosion problems during construction, and after construction until the
disturbed ground is again vegetated. It is anticipated that construction will
begin in the Fall of 1993, and be completed in the Spring of 1994.
Per the City of Fort Collins Erosion Control Reference Manual for
Construction Sites and related calculations in the appendix, the erosion
control performance standard for this site is 78.6%. From the calculations
in the appendix, the effectiveness of the proposed erosion control plan is
79.1% during the construction portion of this development. Therefore the
erosion control plan as specifically detailed below, will meet the City of Fort
Collins requirements.
B. Specific Details
After the overlot grading has been completed, all disturbed areas, not in a
roadway, shall have a temporary vegetation seed applied per the City of
Fort Collins specification. After seeding, a hay or straw mulch shall be
applied over the seed at a rate of 2 tons/acre, minimum, and the mulch
shall be adequately anchored, tacked or crimped into the soil per the
methods shown on the Drainage and Erosion Control plan. After the utilities
have been installed, the roadway surfaces should receive the pavement
structure. The straw bale barriers should be installed prior to beginning the
overlot grading process.

what was planned for in the Prospect Road Improvement Storm Drainage
Study.
Basins 4 and 5 consist of the southwest portion of the site. Flows are
directed along the gutters or along the rear of the lots onto Underhill Drive.
Flow is then to be directed along Underhill to the end of the cul-de-sac.
Here it enters a drainage swale to transport it across the existing bridge
over the New Mercer Canal and into the existing retention pond south of the
canal. Runoff from basin 7 enters the swale along the back property before
flow crosses the canal.
Basin 6 consists of the offsite drainage area which flows onto Underhill
Drive from the west and is routed across the bridge along with flows from
basins 4,5 and 7 in a drainage swale over the New Mercer Canal and into
the retention pond. Basin 8 consists of the area on the south side of the
canal tributary to, and including, the retention pond.
The runoff flows from basins 4 through 8 are to be retained in the existing
pond south of the canal. This pond is temporary until improvements are
built to accept the runoff. The retention pond was built with the Phase I
construction of Underhill P.U.D., criteria for the sizing of the pond is
included in the appendix. Flows entering the pond are essentially the same
as they were with the Phase I Underhill design. Previous 100 year flows
crossing the canal were 27.4 cfs, compared to flows calculated to be 25.0
for the Summerhill P.U.D..
V. STORM WATER QUALITY
w A. General Concept
Beginning in October of 1991, the water quality of storm water runoff was
required to be addressed on all final design utility plans. The Summerhill
P.U.D. has an anticipated construction date beginning in Fall of 1993.
Therefore, water quality issues are being addressed in this report.
B. Specific Details
The north portion of the site drains onto Westbridge Drive and then onto
Prespect Road. The drainage swale transporting the flow from the private
streets is set at a relatively flat grade, which is ideal for water quality. The
low velocities allow .the storm water to filter out polltants into the grass lined
swale. Because of the importance of water quality, we are not proposing to
construct concrete trickle pans along the swale.

i
E. Variances from Criteria
A variance is being sought for this project to allow for continued storm drain
retention in the pond south of the channel. This is to be a temporary pond
until the City completes planned drainage improvements in this area.
IV. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
IA. General Concept
The Summerhill P.U.D. is planned as a multi -family residential housing
development. The site will consist of 62 units. Storm water flows for the
northeasterly portion of the site will be routed to Westbridge Drive and then
onto Prospect Road. Flows from the southwesterly portion of the site will be
routed onto Underhill Drive, and then across the New Mercer Canal into an
existing retention pond on the south side of the canal. Included in the back
pocket of this report is the drainage plan for the Summerhill P.U.D..
B. Specific Details
Basins 1 and 2 consist of the front half of the northeast lots and the
adjacent private roadway. Flow is directed along the private road in a
concrete trickle pan. Calculations for the capacity of the pan and roadway
are included in the appendix. The basins join together at the low point in the
northeast corner of the private road, concentration points 1 and 2. Flow is
to be directed across the street by a cross pan, and then into a grass lined
swale. The cross slope of the street is to be transitioned in the area of the
cross pan to allow for drainage. The grass lined swale is to outlet into a
metal sidewalk culvert and onto Westbridge Drive. The culvert will not
handle flows from a large storm, but is to be installed to keep low flows
from flowing over the sidewalk. Flows above the capacity of the culvert will
overtop the walk and sheetflow onto the street.
Basin 3 consists of the rear portion of the lots of Basins 1 and 2, and all of
Westbridge Drive. Flow from the rear of the lots is to sheetflow over the
sidewalk onto Westbridge Drive or onto Prospect Road. The flow on
Westbridge Drive is then directed along the gutter onto Prospect Road,
along with the runoff from Basins 1 and 2. This concept is consistent with

B. Sub -Basin Description
Historic drainage patterns of the subject site are two thirds of the site
draining northeasterly across the site onto Prospect Road. The remaining
third of the site currently drains southwesterly into the New Mercer Canal.
III. DRAINAGE DESIGN 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 report entitled Hydrologic Analysis and Final Hydraulic Design, West
Prospect Road Drainage" criteria and constraints are being utilized in this
Final Drainage Study. Drainage criteria not specified in the report will be in
accordance with the City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria and
Construction Manual.
C. Hydrological Criteria
The Rational method is being used to determine runoff peak flows from the
site and surrounding off -site tributary areas. The 2 and 100 year rainfall
criteria, which was obtained from the City of Fort Collins, is the criteria
which was utilized. The criteria is included in the appendix.
D. Hydraulic Criteria
All calculations within this study have been prepared in. accordance with the
City of Fort Collins Drainage Criteria.
