INTRODUCTION The primary purpose of preparing and maintaining a stormwater management plan is to improve the health and quality of the State's urban waterways. The preparation and maintenance of the plan will contribute to this objective by facilitating an approach to stormwater management, establishing a program of actions to be used during construction activities, and describing stormwater management controls and various Best Management Practices (BMPs) necessary to reduce erosion, sediment and pollutants in stormwater discharge. Information concerning the State of Colorado General Permit and Stormwater Management Plan are not included in the appendices of this report. The site is over one acre and will require a SWMP permit. 2. SITE DESCRIPTION The project site currently is an undeveloped infill site located north of Nokomis Ct and west of Redwood St. The site is 9.61 acres with approximately 3.0± acres being an existing detention pond and approximately 6.6± acres of developable land. The property will be subdivided into two lots, one containing the existing detention pond and the other being the developed portion for low income housing. The project will consist of constructing 12 low income housing buildings, a community clubhouse, and associated pedestrian and vehicle accesses. This project will be completed in one phase of construction. The project site is bound by Redwood St to the east and surrounded by previously developed properties on the north, south, and west. The site is currently undeveloped and appears to be vegetated with native grasses and wetland plants surrounding the existing detention pond. The existing detention pond encompasses the western portion of the site. Based on research of the site, it appears that this detention pond was constructed sometime after 1975. The site is within the Dry Creek basin and within the basin limits of the Northeast College Corridor Outfall improvements. 2 Figure 1--Vicinity Map 3 Existing soil types on site as classified by the NRCS Soil Survey of Larimer County are classified as Cushman Fine Sandy Loam and Thedalund Loam. Please refer to Table 2.1 for additional soil characteristics. Table 2.1: On-site Soil Characteristics Soil Type Percent of Site Hydrologic Soil Group K Factor1 Wind Group2 Loveland Clay Loam 33% C 0.20 6 Nunn Clay Loam 68% C 0.32 6 1K factors range from 0.24 to 0.37. The higher value, the more susceptible the soil is to sheet and rill erosion by water. 2Soils assigned to wind group 1 are the most susceptible to wind erosion, soils assigned to wind group 8 are the least susceptible. Overall, the soils on site can be classified as moderately erodible. Please refer to Appendix D for the on-site soil information from the NRCS Soil Survey of Larimer County. The majority of the proposed development runoff will be collected and conveyed to the proposed detention basin in the southeast portion of the site where it will be allowed to settle before being released into the adjoining drainage easement to the west of the property. With the building addition, the majority of water will be piped to proposed detention basin, while the remainder will be conveyed overland flow. All paved areas are designed with a minimum slope of 0.5% and all grassed areas are designed with a minimum slope of 2.0%. Side slopes in grassed areas are graded to a maximum of 4:1. 4 The anticipated sequence of construction shall progress as follows: 1) Installation of perimeter and offsite erosion control measures (outlet protection at the regional pond outlet structure, rock sock at the existing private drive curb cut east of the project, inlet protection at the existing inlets on Trilby Rd and Avondale Rd, perimeter silt fence and construction fence). Other measures as required for erosion control will be constructed throughout the project. 2) Clearing, stripping and grading 3) Utility installation 4) Sub-grade preparation for the drives and sidewalks 5) Curb, gutter and sidewalks 6) Paving 7) Building construction (this may occur simultaneously with items 5 through 7) 8) Final grading and landscaping. All disturbed ground will be impervious (concrete, asphalt, or building), seeded and mulched, sodded or xeriscaped to permanently stabilize the site. The rain garden will be completed at this time as well. The run-off coefficients associated with this project for onsite Sub-Basins are as follows: Table 2.2: Sub-Basin Characteristics Sub-Basin Area (AC) C2 C10 C100 D1 1.31 0.65 0. 65 0.82 D2 0.73 0.67 0.67 0.84 D3 0.91 0.65 0.65 0.82 D4 0.99 0.72 0.72 0.90 D5 0.96 0.51 0.51 0.63 D6 1.08 0.67 0.67 0.83 D7 4.00 0.26 0.26 0.33 No outside sources of pollution currently exist on this site. Potential pollutant sources brought onto the site during construction will be discussed (along with spill prevention) in Section 3.2 below. The anticipated non-stormwater components of discharge with this project are landscape irrigation return flows. Runoff from the site will flow toward the detention pond and then be conveyed through a storm pipe network to the existing storm 5 drain within Redwood Street. BMPS FOR STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION 2.1. Erosion and Sediment Controls Structural Practices: Structural practices for the site will consist mainly of vehicle tracking pad, concrete washout area, silt fence, temporary sediment basin (ultimate location of the rain garden), inlet protection, outlet structure protection and sediment control logs which are described in detail in the following paragraphs. Detail drawings of these BMPs are also included in Appendix A. These BMPs are expected to change as the construction progresses and it is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure appropriate BMPs are in place and/or removed at the appropriate time in the construction sequence. All temporary and permanent erosion and sediment control practices must be maintained and repaired as needed to assure continued performance of their intended function. All BMPs shall be inspected and repaired or replaced as indicated in Section 6 and as required to satisfy the conditions of the Permit. Vehicle tracking pad is intended to trap mud and sediment within coarse grain material and provide clean access to public roadways. Wherever construction vehicle access routes intersect paved public roads a vehicle tracking control pad shall be installed to minimize the transport of sediment (mud) by runoff or vehicles tracking onto the paved surface. Pads shall be maintained and refurbished when necessary to obtain their intended result. Concrete washout area is intended to contain washout liquids and solids that result from the cleaning of concrete trucks and pumps. Washouts should be placed near the area where the concrete is being poured. Silt fence prevents sediment from leaving the site during a runoff event by collecting the deposits along the fence line while allowing the storm water to seep through. Silt fence shall be placed along the east boundary of the site to prevent sediment transport into the existing detention pond. Silt fence shall be inspected and maintained after every rainfall event that produces runoff. Sediment must be removed and rocks replaced. Silt fence shall be installed prior to any work commencing on-site. Temporary sediment basins are intended to detain sediment-laden runoff from disturbed areas long enough for the sediment to settle out. The temporary sediment basin will be 6 constructed in the location that will later be modified to serve as the post-construction rain garden. Dredge sediment from the basin, as needed to maintain BMP effectiveness, typically when the design storage volume is no more than one-third filled with sediment. Inspect the sediment basin embankments for stability and seepage. Inspect the inlet and outlet of the basin, repair damage, and remove debris. Remove, clean and replace the gravel around the outlet on a regular basis to remove the accumulated sediment within it and keep the outlet functioning. Be aware that removal of a sediment basin may require dewatering and associated permit requirements. Do not remove a sediment basin until the upstream area has been stabilized with vegetation. Sediment control logs, inlet protection, and outlet structure protection prevent sediment from entering storm drainage systems prior to permanent stabilization of the disturbed site area via ponding and settling of sediment. Sediment control logs or gravel bags shall be placed at the upstream end and downstream end of new culverts and inlets as well as existing culverts and inlets near the site as inlet protection. Storm sewer culvert protection must be inspected and maintained after every rainfall event that produces runoff. Sediment must be removed and rocks replaced. Gravel bag wattles shall be used as flow line protection along proposed curb & gutter on the site. Sediment control logs shall also be implemented as sediment control and velocity reduction in existing and proposed swales as necessary. Sediment control logs shall be installed immediately upon completion of over-lot grading and/or the installation of the proposed swales. Non-Structural Practices: All low sloped areas exposed during land disturbing activity (stripping, grading, utility installations, stockpiling, filling, etc.) shall be kept in a roughened condition by ripping or disking along land contours until mulch, vegetation or other permanent erosion control is installed. All exposed steep sloped areas exposed during land disturbing activity (stripping, grading, utility installations, stockpiling, filling, etc.) shall have slope protection. The contractor shall use a "tracked" vehicle, run perpendicular to slope so that the tracking runs on the contour to inhibit rill/gully erosion; the contractor may use other windrow- type methods as necessary. No soil shall remain exposed by land disturbing activity for more than thirty (30) days. At that time temporary or permanent erosion control seed/mulch, landscaping, etc. is required. 7 Additional Non-Structural Practices are strongly encouraged such as minimizing the disturbance of soils and vegetation, providing educational materials on disposal /recycling, spill prevention / clean up, identification and elimination of illicit discharges, promotion of street sweeping and the development of public education programs. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL ADD ANY AND ALL BMP’S AND DETAILS NEEDED FOR SEDIMENT/EROSION CONTROL. 8 3.2 Materials Handling and Spill Prevention Potential impacts from significant materials and their handling are as follows: Chemicals, cleaning substances, and petroleum products related to the construction will be stored within the construction trailer or storage shed where it will not be in contact with precipitation. No storage of these materials will be allowed outside. Fueling and maintenance of equipment shall take place at the construction staging area. Fueling will be accomplished with fueling trucks on an as needed basis. Absorbent (kitty litter) will be in the construction trailer and applied on any spill immediately and the dry material disposed of properly and legally. All construction waste shall be disposed of in the available dumpsters throughout the workday. Liquid wastes will be hauled off site and disposed of properly and legally. Any cleaning or maintenance of small equipment will be required to be done within a containment device (horse trough or small “kiddy pool”) and the liquid disposed of properly and legally. In the event of any spill, the SWMP Administrator shall be immediately notified. Spills can be broken into three categories. Their definitions and the procedures required to address the spills are as follow: Minor Spill – A spill generally of less than 5 gallons which is unlikely to reach adjacent waters (i.e. equipment leak). Procedure: a. Stop the source of the spill. b. Contain the spillage. c. Contact the SWMP Administrator. d. Clean up the spill with on-site absorbent material (kitty litter) e. Dispose of the dry material properly or legally. f. Document the spill and the response in the SWMP including dates and times – verify that the pollutants are completely cleaned up. g. Include incident in the following training meeting. h. Provide information to the City of Fort Collins at the next regular inspection. 9 Significant Spill – A spill of pollutants or oils of any size that will likely or has reached adjacent waters, may endanger health or the environment, or which may exceed a water quality standard. Procedure: a. Stop the source of the spill. b. Contain the spillage. c. Contact the SWMP Administrator. d. Clean up the spill with on-site absorbent material (kitty litter) e. Dispose of the dry material properly or legally. f. Document the spill and the response in the SWMP – verify that the pollutants are completely cleaned up. g. Notify the City of Fort Collins (970) 221-6700 and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment spill reporting line (877) 518-5608 of the spill. h. Notify the same two entities above with a written submission (outlined within the permit) within 5 calendar days. i. Include incident in the following training meeting. Hazardous Spill – A spill of a dangerous substance requiring expert cleanup. Procedure: a. Secure the area – do not approach the spill. b. Offer first aid to any injured parties. c. Call 911 and describe the nature of the spill and any injuries. d. If possible, isolate downstream areas from the spill (for example, cover an inlet that is downstream and a safe distance from the spill with plastic and soil). e. Contact the SWMP Administrator. f. Document the spill and the response in the SWMP g. Notify the City of Fort Collins (970) 221-6700 and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment spill reporting line (877) 518-5608 of the spill. h. Notify the same two entities above with a written submission (outlined within the permit) within 5 calendar days. i. Include incident in the following training meeting. 10 3. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT CONTROLS 3.1. SWMP Administrator The Local Contact and SWMP Administrator is (INSERT CONTACT NAME, POSITION, COMPANY, AND PHONE NUMBER). (INSERT CONTACT) will be responsible for developing, implementing, maintaining, and revising the SWMP. (INSERT CONTACT) will also be responsible for required inspections and coordinating and documenting changes or repairs resulting from inspections. (INSERT CONTACT) will be responsible for the training and enforcement aspects of the SWMP and he is the first point of contact for any stormwater issues. 3.2. Identification of Potential Pollution Sources The permit identifies 13 potential sources that must be evaluated for their potential to contribute pollutants to stormwater discharge. These items have been evaluated below for this project: 1) Disturbed and stored soil – YES – The construction will require that areas be disturbed exposing soil including foundation construction, paving and repaving, slope construction, and utility installation as shown on the plans. BMPs will include silt fence and sediment control logs or inlet protection on existing and proposed culverts and inlets, minimizing disturbance of existing vegetation and hard surfaces, and slope roughening and tracking of slopes after disturbance and prior to landscaping, paving, or building will be implemented. 2) Vehicle tracking of sediment – YES – The construction will require that subgrade be prepared for pavement and that vehicles drive on unpaved surfaces to the proposed buildings and utility improvement locations. BMPs will include a policy that vehicles be clean prior to entering the site and, if they become muddy during construction or earthwork activities, mud is removed by hand from the vehicle prior to departing the site in an area near the vehicle tracking pad. Any soil that is tracked from the site is to be disposed of in the trash dumpster by sweeping or scraping the material off the street. Any muddy vehicle will use the vehicle tracking pad prior to leaving the site. 3) Management of contaminated soil – NO – Soil borings do not indicate any existing contamination. 4) Loading and unloading operations – YES – Chemicals and petroleum products will be brought to the site. Anytime these are being transported, they will be in a sealed container. 11 5) Outdoor storage activities – YES – Inert materials such as wood and stone will be stored outside and will likely be covered with tarps or plastic, but are not pollutant sources and are not covered by the permit. Chemicals and petroleum products will be stored within the construction trailer or storage shed. Cement and mortar bags (if not contained in a vehicle or storage shed) will be completely covered with plastic to avoid contact with precipitation. 6) Vehicle and equipment maintenance and fueling – NO – Vehicle maintenance and fueling will not take place. No fuel will be stored on site. 7) Significant dust or particulate generating processes – YES – Most of the 1.51 acre site will be exposed from the over-lot grading of the project. In order to control the dust or particulate generating process a water truck will be on site at all times. The disturbed ground will be watered as needed to control dust from leaving the site. 8) The area of heavy construction is very limited and none of the operations are expected to generate significant dust. 9) Routine maintenance activities involving fertilizers, pesticides, detergents, fuels, solvents, oils, etc. – YES – Fertilizers and pesticides will not be used. Any cleaning or maintenance of small equipment will be required to be done within a containment device (horse trough or small “kiddy pool” and the liquid disposed of properly and legally. 10) On-site waste management – YES – The buildings and site construction (access drive, concrete walks, underground utilities) will result in construction waste. A dumpster for trash and a dumpster for bulk recycling will be on the site. Waste will be hauled to the dumpsters by hand or in loaders. Dumpsters will be hauled off as needed. No construction waste will be left outside overnight without being located in a dumpster. No construction debris (including broken concrete) may be buried on the site. 11) Concrete truck/equipment washing – YES – A concrete washout will be provided on site. This will be used for trucks and for any masonry / concrete tools. 12) Dedicated asphalt of concrete batch plants – NO – None on this project. 13) Non-structural waste sources such as worker trash and portable toilets – YES –Trash dumpster will be available for worker’s trash and will be located near the construction trailer and emptied weekly. Portable toilets will be staked on site near the construction trailer. 14) Other areas where potential spills can occur – NO – The above 12 items are adequate for the anticipated construction process. CONTRACTOR TO UPDATE THE ABOVE INFORMATION WITH EXACT LOCATIONS OF THE CONSTRUCTION TRAILER, VEHICLE TRACKING PAD, CONCRETE WASHOUT, DUMPSTERS, AND PORTABLE TOILETS PRIOR TO COMMENCEMENT OF CONSTRUCTION AND UPDATED AS NECESSARY THROUGHOUT THE CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE. 12 4. FINAL STABILIZATION AND LONG TERM STORMWATER MANAGEMENT Final stabilization shall be considered achieved once all proposed site improvements are in place, all vegetation is established as identified on the landscape plan, all temporary BMPs are removed, and the downstream conveyances are inspected and certified to be clean and free from any construction debris resulting from the construction. Areas controlled by grass sod will be considered established upon the completion of the sod installation. Areas of seeding will be considered established at 70% of original coverage. After stabilization, there are no other long term, permanent BMPs proposed within the site other than routine maintenance of the site (landscape mowing, rain garden maintenance, pavement maintenance, etc.). 5. INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE Site inspections will be performed to effectively address maintenance, repair, and adequacy of BMPs. The site inspections will be performed by the SWMP Administrator or his designee a minimum of once every fourteen (14) calendar days on active construction sites and within 24 hours after a significant storm event (event causing erosion). As part of the site inspections the inspector will keep documentation of all inspections and BMP maintenance, including updated Site Maps indicating new BMPs or the removal of BMPs since the previous inspection. Blank Site Maps will be utilized and will be redlined by the SWMP Administrator throughout construction to note all BMPs, pollutant sources, storage locations, etc. Any maintenance, repair, or necessary installation of BMPs that are noted during the inspection must begin immediately. The modifications shall be noted in the SWMP and the action taken as a result of the inspection shall be noted and certified on or attached to the original inspection report (date and time that the repair or change was started and finished and a certification that it was done properly). 5.1. City of Fort Collins Standard Erosion and Sediment Control Notes 1) The City Stormwater Department erosion control inspector must be notified at least 24 hours prior to any construction on this site. 13 2) All required BMPs shall be installed prior to any land disturbing activity (stockpiling, stripping, grading, etc.). All of their required erosion control measures shall be installed at the appropriate time in the construction sequence as indicated in the approved project schedule, construction plans, and erosion control report. 3) Pre-disturbance vegetation shall be protected and retained wherever possible. Removal or disturbance of existing vegetation shall be limited to the area required for immediate construction operations, and for the shortest practical period of time. 4) All soils exposed during land disturbing activity (stripping, grading, utility installations, stockpiling, filling, etc.) shall be kept in a roughened condition by ripping or disking along land contours until mulch, vegetation, or other permanent erosion control is installed. No soils in areas outside project street rights of way shall remain exposed by land disturbing activity for more than thirty (30) days before required temporary or permanent erosion control (e.g. seed/mulch, landscaping, etc.) is installed, unless otherwise approved by the Stormwater Department. 5) The property must be watered and maintained at all times during construction activities so as to prevent wind-caused erosion. All land disturbing activities shall be immediately discontinued when fugitive dust impacts adjacent properties, as determined by the City Engineering Department. 6) All temporary (structural) erosion control measures must be inspected and repaired or reconstructed as necessary after each runoff event and every 14 days in order to assure continued performance of their intended function. All retained sediments, particularly those on paved roadway surfaces, shall be removed and disposed of in a manner and location so as not to cause their release into any drainage way. 7) No stockpile shall exceed ten (10) feet in height. All soil stockpiles shall be protected from sediment transport by surface roughening, watering, and perimeter silt fencing. Any soil stockpile remaining after 30 days shall be seeded and mulched. 14 8) City Ordinance prohibits the tracking, dropping, or depositing of soils or any other material onto city streets by or from any vehicle. Any inadvertent deposited material shall be cleaned immediately by the contractor. 5.2. City of Fort Collins Erosion Control Security Calculations The cost of erosion control for the site was compared to the cost to reseed the entire site and the greater cost was used to establish the erosion control escrow amount. The cost to reseed the site is estimated at $1,500. Using a multiplier of 1.5 the erosion control escrow amount would be $2,250. The site erosion control cost is estimated at $6,500. Using a multiplier of 1.5 the erosion control escrow amount would be $9,750. The larger sum of the Erosion Control cost and the Reseeding cost shall be used for the escrow account. Therefore, the Erosion Control Escrow amount is $9,750. See Table 6.1 for a break-down of the costs associated with seeding and erosion control (numbers provided are estimates and to be updated with final design). 15 Table 6.1: Erosion Control Cost Estimate (to be updated with final design) ITEM QUANTITY UNIT COST/UNIT TOTAL COST Silt Fence LF $ 2.00 Sediment Control Log LF $ 7.00 $ Inlet Protection (IP) EA $ 150.00 $ Outlet Structure Protection (OSP) EA $ 200.00 $ Rock Socks EA $ 75.00 $ Concrete Washout EA $ 800.00 $ Construction Entrance EA $ 1,500.00 $ Sedimentation Basin EA $ 200.00 $ Subtotal $ Contingency (50%) $ Total $ CITY RESEEDING COST Reseed/Mulch ACRE $ 1,500.00 $ Subtotal $ Contingency (50%) $ Total $ CALCULATED EROSION CONTROL ESCROW AMOUNT $ Note: Minimum Escrow Amount is $3,000 16 6. SWMP IMPLEMENTATION It is the responsibility of the contractor to operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control which are installed to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit. This includes effective performance, adequate funding, adequate staffing and training, etc. (see permit). All personnel on the construction site who will be in a position to affect or be affected by the SWMP shall be trained prior to beginning work. These individuals will be given general orientation information regarding the project and SWMP, shown where the SWMP is physically located, the SWMP will be explained to them and available for their review, and the enforcement policy will be reviewed. After this training, a certification that the employee or subcontractor’s employee is familiar with the document and its procedures will be signed. Copies of these certifications are included in the Appendix. Throughout the construction, as a part of a weekly safety meeting, the SWMP will be reviewed with all attendees and any incidents discussed. All attendees shall be logged.

Factor K is one of six factors used in the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) to predict the average annual rate of soil loss by sheet and rill erosion in tons per acre per year. The estimates are based primarily on percentage of silt, sand, and organic matter and on soil structure and saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat). Values of K range from 0.02 to 0.69. Other factors being equal, the higher the value, the more susceptible the soil is to sheet and rill erosion by water. "Erosion factor Kw (whole soil)" indicates the erodibility of the whole soil. The estimates are modified by the presence of rock fragments.

Soils are assigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when the soils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive precipitation from long-duration storms. The soils in the United States are assigned to four groups (A, B, C, and D) and three dual classes (A/D, B/D, and C/D). The groups are defined as follows: Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands or gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission. Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture. These soils have a moderate rate of water transmission. Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of water transmission. Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink-swell potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layer at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material. These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission. If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D, or C/D), the first letter is for drained areas and the second is for undrained areas. Only the soils that in their natural condition are in group D are assigned to dual classes.
