Current Developed Conditions
The project consists of the re-development of an approximately 4.4-parcel with from former
lumber yard to proposed car dealership. The site is located in the Southeast ¼ of Section 35,
Township 7 North, Range 69 West of the 5th Principal Meridian., County of Larimer, State of
Colorado. A Vicinity Map is contained within Appendix A.
This site resides in the drainage basin for Fossil Creek (approximately ¾ of a mile southeast),
which is ultimately tributary to Cache La Poudre River (5 miles east). Runoff from the site
drains off-site to the east to South Mason Street and to the south to West Harmony Road,
where it flows via street gutters towards the intersection of the two streets and enters the
city storm sewer via a 10’ Type R Inlet.
The existing site is 19% vegetated, with approximately 80% coverage in these areas. The
vegetation consists of mature landscaping consisting of landscaped grass areas with trees and
shrubs. The existing slopes within the parking area range from 1-2%, while the perimeter
landscape areas along S. Mason St. and W Harmony Road range up to 3-4%. Soils on the site,
according to USDA National Soil Conservation website, consist of Nunn clay loam – Hydrologic
Soil Type C (94% of site) with a small area of Altvan-Satanta loams (6%) – Hydrologic Soil Type
B, in the northeast corner of the site. When exposed, these fine-grained soils will be prone to
sediment transport and channel cutting during storm events, but low slopes on site will
mitigate major erosion events.
Nature and Purpose of Construction
3
This project involves the remodeling of the existing main building on the site, with two
additions and one removed area at the building, the removal and replacement of
deteriorated asphalt paving and concrete areas from the parking area of the site. Alterations
will be made to the two existing entrances to the site, and new areas of landscape will be
incorporated into the parking lot and around the building.
Approximately 4.0 acres may be disturbed during the redevelopment of this project.
Rainfall Erodibility & Erosion and Sediment Control Methods
According to the NRCS Soil Survey, the soils on the site are predominantly Nunn clay loam,
(94.2%) and the remainder Altvan-Satanta loams (5.8%).
Nunn clay loam is a fine clay loam that is hard, very friable, sticky and plastic. The cohesive
properties and low slopes on site indicate this material will have a low erodibility.
The Altvan-Satanta loam is fine sandy loam with fine pebbles. This material is not cohesive
and also fine, which will lend itself to sediment transport during storm events. The area
composed of this material is limited to a small area in the northeast corner of the site. The
sediment control BMPs, silt fence, and rock berms in this area of the site must be specifically
monitored for maintenance issues.
The erosion control measures for the site are shown on the attached erosion control
drawing. The NRCS Soil Survey report is included in Appendix A.
Prior to Construction:
Silt fence shall typically be installed down-slope of any proposed improvements, as Silt fence
shall also be installed around any stockpiles kept on site. Construction fence will be added to
the west side of the site.
Potential Pollution Sources
The Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual identifies potential sources of pollution, listed
on Table 1, for which at a minimum must be identified in the Erosion Control Report. Table 1
provides information regarding the specific potential pollution sources identified for this site.
The table also provides the activities associated with these sources and BMPs selected to
control contaminants from these sources from leaving the site in stormwater runoff. Specific
details regarding BMP selection, implementation, inspection and maintenance are provided
in the Stormwater Management Controls (SWMC) section, below. These sources should be
updated as the project progresses. Additional pollution sources that are not included on this
table should be added and delete sources that are no longer used on site. Handwritten
changes are acceptable, date and initial changes that are made.

Stormwater Management Controls (SWMC)
Silt fence is a sediment-trapping device installed prior to beginning earthwork activities. Silt
fences will be installed inside the property boundary and at sensitive locations. The silt
fence along the property boundaries shall remain in place until permanent vegetation has
been established.
A construction entrance with a vehicle tracking control pad will be provided at the proposed
northeast access drive off existing S. Mason St.
A stabilized staging area (SSA) will be constructed near the construction entrance to the
northwest. The SSA will be used for storing construction materials, equipment and vehicles.
Drip pans, cardboard, plywood or other absorbent materials must be placed beneath parked
vehicles to control the release of hazardous materials from the SSA. Hazardous materials
include but are not limited to gasoline, motor oil, hydraulic oil, and anti-freeze.
The existing 10-foot inlet at the intersection of S. Mason St. and W. Harmony Drive (on S.
Mason St.) shall be protected with inlet protection. Rock socks shall be installed along S.
Mason St, and W. Harmony Rd, as allowed.
All storm sewer inlets made operable during construction will have sediment-entrapment
facilities installed to prevent sediment-laden runoff from entering the inlet. Contractor shall
install the most effective method of inlet protection for the site conditions.
Rock socks are constructed of gravel that has been wrapped by wire mesh or a geotextile to
form an elongated cylindrical filter. They are used for perimeter protection (street flowlines,
especially) or as part of inlet protection.
A concrete washout shall be installed before any concrete mixing is done, and located near
the SSA.
A portable concrete washout consists of a shallow container that is designed to capture
waste water and waste products resulting from the cleaning of concrete and masonry
equipment. They are used to contain concrete and liquids from chutes of concrete mixers
and hoppers that are rinsed out after delivery. The washout consolidates solids and allows
for evaporation of liquids for easier disposal and to prevent runoff into storm sewers or
waters on the site. The washout area shall be located near the SSA to control tracking of
mud.
8
Dryland Vegetation
Dryland vegetation construction is to be limited to small landscape areas newly created. If
final landscape stabilization is delayed more than thirty days, temporary seeding and
mulching for the establishment of stabilizing grasses shall be performed. Ultimately all
landscape areas will be planted with landscape plants. Areas of sod disturbed in construction
to be repaired.
Refer to “L-1 Landscape Plan” from the “Fort Collins Jeep Dealership – Project Development
Plan” set for sod, final vegetation, and soil amendment requirements associated with Fort
Collins Municipal Code Sec. 12-130 through 12-132.
Temporary and permanent seeding and mulching shall be performed according to the
“Temporary and Permanent Seeding (TS/PS) EC-2” specification sheet, included in Appendix B
of this report.

De-mobilization Remove erosion control measures Winter 2018
Note: 1. Dates are approximate, assuming good weather and no unforeseen circumstances.
2. Refer to project schedule maintained by site superintendent for timelines and specific dates for all
construction tasks.
Maintenance
The contractor shall make a thorough inspection of their stormwater management system at
least once every 14 days and after any precipitation or snowmelt event that causes surface
erosion.
The construction site perimeter, disturbed areas, and areas used for materials storage that
are exposed to precipitation shall be inspected for evidence of, or the potential for,
pollutants entering the drainage system. Erosion and sediment control measures identified
in the erosion control plan or SWMP shall be observed to ensure that they are operating
correctly.
Based on the results of the inspection, the description of potential pollution sources, and the
pollution prevention and control measures that are identified in the erosion control plan or
SWMP shall be revised and modified as appropriate as soon as practicable after such
inspection. Modifications to control measures shall be implemented in a timely manner, but
in no case more than 7 calendar days after the inspection.
The operator shall keep a record of inspections. Any incidence of non-compliance, such as
uncontrolled releases of mud or muddy water of measurable quantities of sediment found
off the site, shall be recorded with a brief explanation as to the measures taken to prevent
future violations, as well as any measure taken to clean up the sediment that has left the site.
After adequate measures have been taken to correct any problems, or where a report does
not identify any incidents of non-compliance, the report shall contain a signed certification
10
indicating that the site is in compliance. This record shall be made available to the Division
upon request.
In addition to the above, the following maintenance requirements shall be used for individual
BMPs.
Mulching - The key consideration is that the mulch needs to last long enough to
achieve its erosion control objectives. Reapplication of mulch may be required to
maintain effective soil stabilization over disturbed areas and slopes. After any rainfall
event, the Contractor is responsible for maintaining all slopes to prevent erosion.
Vehicle Tracking Control - Inspect routinely for damage and assess the effectiveness
of the BMP. Remove aggregate, separate and dispose of sediment if construction
entrance/exit is clogged with sediment. Inspect for damage and repair as needed.
Silt Fence - Inspect silt fence at least once every 14 days and after rainfall events.
Sediment shall be removed when the buildup reaches one third the height of the
fence. Fence that has been damaged or washed-out shall be repaired or replaced in-
kind.
Inlet Protection - Inspect at least once every 14 days and after rainfall events. Inspect
rock socks for displacement of the rock contents and/or damage to the surrounding
fabric. Repair fabric and replace as needed.
Geotextiles, Plastic Covers, & Erosion Control Blankets/Mats - These temporary
controls shall be installed per the manufacturer specifications and inspected at least
once every 14 days and after rainfall events to ensure their proper functioning. If
washout or breakage occurs, re-install the material after repairing the damage to the
slope or channel.
