FINAL DRAINAGE
AND EROSION CONTROL REPORT
FOR THE OAKRIDGE CROSSING
FORT COLLINS, COLORADO
I. GENERAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
A. Location
The Oakridge Crossing project is bounded to the north by Oakridge Business Park
11th Filing, to the east by Oakridge Business Park 23rd Filing, to the south by
Oakridge Business Park 18th Filing, and to the west by McMurry Avenue.
The project site can also be described as situated in the northeast quarter of Section 6,
Township 6 North, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M., of the City of Fort Collins, County
of Larimer, State of Colorado. The Oakridge Crossing building site is comprised of
approximately 2.61 acres. The drainage analysis includes 2.61 acres of the onsite
area which is a portion of the existing drainage basin 210 (7.51 acres) established
with the Master Drainage Study For the Oakridge Business Park (Master Drainage
Study). Please refer to the vicinity map in Appendix A for the site location.
B. Description of Property
The site is comprised of an approximate 32,746 +/-square foot building footprint
along with associated parking lot, west entrance, northeast drive aisle access, private
drive improvements and utility improvements. Previously, the Oakridge Crossing
building site was an undeveloped lot, vegetated with sparse grass and weeds.
Enhanced landscaping is established on adjoining lots to the east and south. At the
northeast side the lot, an asphalt paved drive aisle and parking bay with one end-cap
island is constructed. Two concrete curb and gutter islands are constructed straddling
the north property boundary at the west end of the property and a concrete access
drive is constructed at the approach from McMurry Avenue.
The existing site topography of the Oakridge Crossing building site generally drains
to the south and south east at 0.5% to 1% slope. The existing paved drive aisle and
parking spaces to the north, drain to a concrete pan and flows east at a slope of 1%.

II. DRAINAGE BASINS
A. Major Basin Description
The site lies within the McClellands Drainage Basin, with site drainage previously
accounted for in the Master Drainage Study for the Oakridge Business Park. The
approved grading and drainage master plan and SWMM Model for the Master
Drainage Study Oakridge Business Park (Master Plan) provided for the runoff from
the entire basin being ultimately routed to the regional detention pond southeast of
the project site.
The proposed Oakridge Crossing building site will discharge runoff after being
detained and treated for water quality on site. Proposed storm sewer will connect to
existing storm sewer in McMurry Avenue which will discharge to a regional
detention pond southeast of the site. The intended connection in the Master Plan was
to storm sewer south of the site which would then discharge to an open swale. This
intended connection point is no longer available with current development in place.
The volume of site runoff will be in compliance with the Master Drainage Study for
the Oakridge Business Park, September, 1990 by RBD Engineering Consultants.
The proposed improvements meet the intent of approved Master Plan. The
developed site runoff (22.86 cfs) is less than the prorated share of runoff (23.62 cfs)
for the Master Plan Basin 210. The composite runoff coefficient for the site is 0.73
(C100 =0.91) versus 0.80 for Basin 210 in the Master Plan.
B. Existing Sub-Basin Description
The existing Oakridge Crossing building site is contained within existing sub-basin
210 of the Master Plan. Existing basin 210 contains approximately 7.51 acres and
was modeled with the entire 7.51 acres having a runoff coefficient of 0.80 in the
developed condition. All flow from the basin being allowed to flow un-detained to
the existing detention pond. No water quality was provided in the regional detention
pond. Water quality will be provided for on site for the proposed improvements.
The developed conditions for the Oakridge Crossing building site has been evaluated
with the current IDF curve data for City of Fort Collins to determine if on site
detention is needed for the property. It was determined that no addition detention
will be necessary on site. However, considering the limitation of using the existing
storm sewer connection point in McMurry Avenue, site runoff will be restricted and
on site detention will be provided to avoid over taxing the existing storm sewer
which must connect with a 15” diameter storm pipe as shown on the Master Plan
drainage exhibit.
7
The area south and east of the proposed building comprised of 0.47 acres will sheet
flow off site as occurs historically. The existing 0.22 acres of paved drive aisle and
parking lot at the north side of the site will drain off site to the east as it historically
has. The balance of the site will be directed to the proposed on site storm sewer and
discharge to the existing storm sewer in McMurry Avenue. No offsite areas
contribute overland flow to or through the Oakridge Crossing building project site.
Please refer to Appendix F of this report for the existing and proposed drainage basin
exhibits for the subject site.
III. DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
A. Regulations
Since the subject site has been previously modeled, the site is allowed to release un-
detained to the existing regional detention pond in Master Plan basin 90, which has
been sized to provide detention for the developed 100-year runoff from the subject
site. LID improvements on site are required and have been provided for with this
project. Please see the LID calculations in Appendix C, as well as the LID Table on
sheet C-007, which provides the treatment methods and area calculations for LID
treatment using a rain garden. In addition, a grass buffer will be used in Basin 1
where runoff cannot be directed to the rain garden.
B. Development Criteria Reference and Constraints
The criteria and constraints from the City of Fort Collins will be met. The calculated
detention pond sizing using the prorated allowable runoff from Basin 210, and the
developed runoff coefficient for the proposed development results in no additional
detention required. Due to the capacity of the existing storm sewer connection point,
the site runoff rate will be restricted and detained on site before discharging to the
regional detention pond.
C. Hydrologic Criteria
The Rational Method for determining surface runoff was used for the project site.
The 2-year and 100-year storm event intensities were used in calculating runoff
values.
8
The City of Fort Collins intensity duration frequency curves were used to obtain
rainfall data for each storm specified. Detention pond sizing was calculated using
FAA methods and water quality volume was calculated using the rain garden sizing
spreadsheets developed by Denver Urban Drainage. Detention will be provided for
the subject site in the existing regional detention pond (Master Plan basin 90) from
the previous infrastructure improvements of the Oakridge Business Park. On site
detention will be provided to reduce the peak runoff from the site entering the
existing storm sewer system in McMurry Avenue. BMP’s and LID measures are
being incorporated into the proposed drainage development plan, with specific details
and calculations shown in Appendices C and F of this report.
D. Hydraulic Criteria
All hydraulic calculations, including final calculations and sizing for storm sewer,
curb cuts, swales, and erosion control and riprap measures have been provided in
accordance with the City of Fort Collins Drainage Criteria and can be found in the
Appendix D and E.
E. Variance
No variances are being requested.
IV. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
A. General Concept
A total of five drainage basins are delineated over the proposed Oakridge Crossing
building site. One basin to the north, will drain 0.23 acres east, offsite as it
historically occurs. Another basin south and east of the proposed building, will drain
0.47 acres through grass buffers to the south and east in the historic drainage pattern.
Two drainage basins will convey drainage from 1.87 acres of the 2.61 acre site into a
rain garden LID. A small basin will drain 0.05 acres to a proposed storm sewer inlet.
The site drainage will be conveyed to the rain garden via curb and gutter, roof drains
and proposed storm pipes. Site runoff will be intercepted by proposed storm sewer
and flow through existing off site storm sewer and conveyed to the existing regional
detention pond southeast of the project site.
The existing regional detention Pond (Basin 90) provides storage and detention and
was sized to receive the 100-year developed flow from the Oakridge Crossing
building site (from the Master Plan). The calculated composite 'C' value for
Oakridge Crossing building site is 0.73. Please refer to the rational calculations in
9
Appendix B, and the Drainage Basin Exhibit and Master Plan Drainage Exhibit in
Appendix F for additional information.
LID measures are provided for through the conveyance of runoff from approximately
77% of the new impervious area consisting of building roof area, pavement, and
sidewalk, which will be routed through the rain garden for water quality treatment.
Because the area being routed to and through the rain garden exceeds the 75%
requirement for LID treatment of the total site impervious area, the project exceeds
that normally required for water quality and LID treatment. It should be noted that
the existing impervious area within Basin 5 is excluded from the LID calculations.
This area will drain east, offsite as currently occurs. Please refer to Appendix C for
LID calculations, as well as sheet C-007, which provides an additional LID table, as
required by the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Department.
The rain garden, shown and called out in the plans, provides approximately 2,452 ft3
of storage volume with a maximum of 1’ of ponding depth, prior to the basin
overflowing into proposed CDOT Type C inlets which discharge to proposed storm
sewer then to existing storm sewer and ultimately entering the existing detention
pond. It’s important to note that 0.47 acres of the site runoff along the south and east
sides of the proposed building will be landscaped with grass to enhance water quality
treatment by filtering through the grass before going off site as historically occurs.
Please refer to Appendix C and sheets C-009 and C-011 of the civil utility plans for
details on the rain garden.
B. Specific Details
Basin 1
Basin 1 consists primarily of grass/landscaped areas, located south and east of the
proposed building. Runoff from basin 1 will sheet flow away from the building and
flow off site as historically occurs. Since this basin will be established with grass, the
ground cover is expected to be better than the existing grass cover on the
undeveloped lot. The basin combines with offsite flow and will ultimately drain to
the regional detention pond.
Basin 2
Basin 2 consists of the proposed building, parking lot and rain garden. Runoff from
the building roof enters roof downspouts and connect with underground roof drains
which discharge runoff north and west onto riprap pads within the rain garden LID
basin. Landscaped areas next the building will drain through sidewalk drains and
discharge to curb and gutter. The parking lot will sheet flow north and west to curb
and gutter and drain concentrated runoff to four, 3’ curb cuts with riprap pads
draining to the rain garden. The rain garden is designed to provide a ponding depth of
approximately 1.00’ and allow pollutants and sediment to settle out of the runoff,
10
prior to overflowing into three CDOT Type C inlets to enter the proposed storm
sewer.
Eleven downspouts are consolidated to four, 12” HDPE underground roof drain pipes
discharging to riprap pads in the rain garden. In the event of clogging, overflow
from the downspouts will be provided and will drain through sidewalk drains. It
should be noted that one 18” Nyloplast drain basin is used between the building and
sidewalk to drain the interior corner northwest of the building. An 8” HDPE pipe
will convey flow from the drain basin directly to the proposed CDOT Type C Inlet
within the rain garden and will not receive water quality treatment in the rain garden.
This area could not drain to the surface of the rain garden due to grading constraints.
A proposed 12” storm sewer constructed in Basin 2, will receive flow from the 5’
Type R inlet in Basin 4. Overflow from the rain garden and runoff from Basin 2,
Basin 3 and drainage from the rain garden underdrain pipe will enter three proposed
CDOT Type C inlets. Proposed 15” HDPE pipe will convey flow south then west
along the length of the pond. A 15” RCP will connect the pond discharge to the
existing storm manhole in McMurry Avenue. Flow will combine with upstream
runoff from an existing 18” storm pipe to the north. Combined flow will drain south
in an existing 24” RCP and ultimately discharge to the regional detention pond.
Basin 3
Basin 3 conveys runoff from part of the existing north drive aisle and the proposed
parking bay at the northwest corner of the site. The paved area drains southeast to
curb and gutter passes through a 1’ curb cut and riprap pad before entering the rain
garden in Basin 2.
Basin 4
Basin 4 conveys runoff from the proposed parking bay at the northeast corner of the
site. The paved area drains southwest to curb and gutter and enters a proposed 5’
Type R inlet which drains to a 12” RCP. Runoff from this basin was not able to
drain to the rain garden due to grading constraints and is conveyed off site in the
proposed storm sewer.
Basin 5
Basin 5 conveys runoff from the existing paved drive aisle and parking bays. Sheet
flow is concentrated in a central concrete drainage pan and flows east off the site to
the neighboring parking lots which drain south and east. This areas drainage pattern
will not be modified with the proposed improvements. Two landscape islands will be
constructed within two existing paved parking stalls which will increase the overall
pervious area of Basin 5. However, the runoff coefficient for the basin is based on
the existing condition and the basin will drain as historically occurs. This basin area
was developed in a prior phase of the Oakridge Business Park and will ultimately
drain to the regional detention pond.
11
C. Detention Ponds
Although no detention is required for the subject site when comparing the Master
Plan peak runoff allowable to the developed site peak runoff, detention is required to
avoid exceeding the capacity of the existing storm system in McMurry Avenue.
Since this discharge point varies from the Master Plan, the site runoff release rate will
be restricted
Detention will be provided within the rain garden area defined as Pond 1. Site runoff
will be detained in Pond 1 to a 100-year water surface elevation of approximately
4969.0. Pond discharge will be restricted by and conveyed in a proposed 15” RCP.
The pipe size is governed by the design in the Master Plan and the as built conditions.
The release rate was determined by considering a maximum of 1 foot of ponding
depth in the parking lot and the capacity of the 15” RCP operating under pressure
flow conditions. The resulting release rate is 8.1cfs. Using the FAA method, the
required pond volume is 0.15 Ac-Ft. The detention volume will be provided above
the rain garden volume (elevation 4967.50). Pond volume calculations and storm
sewer sizing calculations are provided in Appendix C and D respectively.
Note that the detention for the site runoff is also provided for in the regional
detention pond (Basin 90), which was constructed as outlined in the Master Plan.
D. Street Capacities
The street capacity calculations are not required for the subject site, as no new public
street construction will be built with this project. However, curb cut capacities have
been analyzed and calculations provided in Appendix D of this report.
V. STORM WATER QUALITY
A. General Concept
The water quality of stormwater runoff must be addressed on all final design utility
plans. Therefore, Best Management Practices for the treatment of stormwater runoff
for the subject site will include grass-lined swales, a rain garden LID basin, and the
utilization of the grass buffers along the south and east side of the site. These water
quality features will provide a mechanism for pollutants to settle out of the
stormwater runoff before flows are directed to the regional detention pond.
12
B. Specific Details
Best Management Practices (BMP) for the treatment of storm water runoff has been
incorporated into the final design for this project. This will include continued
utilization of extended detention in the existing, offsite detention pond.
The existing detention facility has adequate capacity and will continue to provide
detention for the developed condition of the subject site, prior to releasing flows
downstream. On site detention will restrict the site runoff to avoid exceeding the
existing storm sewer capacity.
LID measures are provided for through the conveyance of 1.87 acres over and
through the rain garden LID basin. To further enhance water quality 0.47 acres will
sheet flow over grass buffer area. The footprint of the rain garden is approximately
1,048 square feet, with a depth of approximately 1.0 foot, and provides
approximately 2,452 cf of storage volume.
It’s important to note that 77% of sites new impervious area is being conveyed over
and through the rain garden which exceed the 75% minimum that is normally
required for water quality and LID treatment.
The rain garden, shown and called out in the civil utility plans, provides for
approximately 1.0’ of ponding depth, prior to the basin overflowing to storm inlets
and into the storm sewer and eventually into the existing detention pond.
Approximately 1.5’ of ponding depth will occur over the proposed CDOT Type C
inlets during the 100-yr storm event. The ponding depth will be less than 1 foot in
the parking lot. Please refer to Appendices C and F, and sheets C-009 and C-011 of
the civil utility plans, for details on the rain garden.
Please also refer to the LID Table on sheet C-007 for area calculations and specific
LID calculations, as required by the City of Fort Collins.
13
VI. EROSION CONTROL
A. General Concept
The subject site lies within the Moderate Rainfall Erodibility Zone and the Moderate
Wind Erodibility Zone per the City of Fort Collins zone maps. The potential exists
for erosion problems during construction, but should be minimal after completion of
proposed development. Silt fence will be installed along the north, south, east, and
west sides of the site to prevent sediment from leaving the site. A tracking pad will
also be placed at west entrance/exit to the site. Gravel inlet filters will be placed at
proposed curb cuts, and storm drain inlets. Riprap will also be utilized at
concentration points (curb cuts and pipe outlets), as shown in the plans, to minimize
erosion and increase soil stabilization.
VII. CONCLUSIONS
A. Compliance with Standards
All computations within this report have been completed in compliance with the City
of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria.
The City of Fort Collins Storm Water Utility will not maintain the on-site storm
drainage facilities within the subject site. The owners of the subject site will
maintain their on-site storm drainage facilities on a regular basis. The following shall
be implemented for the private stormwater improvements’ operations/ maintenance
procedures for the project on an annual or bi-annual basis:
1) Storm Sewer Inlets, pipes and flared-end-sections, curb cuts and concrete
sidewalk culverts/chases, structures, manholes, and the outlet structures shall
be cleaned through the removal of debris and sediment from the associated
items to allow for adequate drainage through the site to the proposed
detention facility
2) Sedimentation/ silting shall be removed to allow for adequate drainage along
the bottom of the swales and LID/PLD basin. Grass scrubbing along the
bottom of the LID/PLD basin may be required to remove sediment and
promote grass growth.
3) Re-vegetation through the use of Natural Seeding/ Sod shall be provided for
disturbed areas and other permanent erosion controls shall be provided for
areas where erosion has taken place and requires remediation back to the
proposed condition shown in the plans
14
The Stormwater Operating/ Maintenance Procedures listed above are guidelines to
the minimum procedures that shall be implemented for the site, with these and
additional measures being utilized on an as-needed basis.
B. Drainage Concept
The proposed drainage concepts presented in this study and shown on the utility
plans adequately provide for the transmission of developed on-site runoff to the
proposed on site detention pond and the existing detention pond, located south of the
subject site. The combination of the existing and proposed storm conveyances will
provide for the 100-year developed flows to reach the existing detention pond. The
calculated release rate will pond to a depth not to exceed 1 foot in the parking lot
during a 100-year storm event. The existing release rate of the existing pond will be
adhered to.
If groundwater is encountered at the time of construction, a Colorado Department of
Health Construction Dewatering Permit will be required.
C. Storm Water Quality
The final design has addressed the water quality aspect of stormwater runoff. The
LID items presented in this report for the proposed site will provide an opportunity
for stormwater pollutants to filter out of the stormwater runoff before flows are
directed downstream.
D. Erosion Control Concept
Proposed erosion control concepts have been provided for and adequately provide for
the control of wind and rainfall erosion from the proposed development. 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.
Erosion Control Escrow Estimate
The Erosion Control Escrow Estimate for the subject property is approximately
$17,648.00. Please refer to Appendix E for this calculation.
