Basin C includes a portion of an existing commercial parking lot which will provide
access to the site and a portion of landscaped area. Runoff from Basin C flows via
sheet flow to McHugh Street without detention.
2.3 On-Site Basin Description
Basin OS-1 includes a portion of the nursing center property drains to on-site Basin B.
The flows from this basin are accounted for in the storm drain sizing and are conveyed
through the property to McHugh Street undetained.
Basin OS-2 includes the remaining portion of the nursing center property that drains to
the Circle C property drains to on-site Basin C. As no drainage facilities are proposed
for Basin C, runoff from this basin passes through the site and enters McHugh Street
undetained, which is consistent with the existing drainage pattern. Figure 2-1 presents
the delineation of the off-site basins and Appendix B presents the hydrologic
calculations for the basins.

The adjusted composite runoff coefficient value was determined utilizing the following
equation.
C=Cx*Cf

2.5 Water Quality Capture Volume
Equations in Chapter 7 of the FCSCM were used for the calculation of Water Quality
Capture Volume (WQCV) required for the Circle C - Adult Residential Treatment Services
project and are presented below.
The Water Quality Capture Volume is calculated based on the imperviousness of the project
site and the drain time. Most of the new impervious area on the Circle C - Adult
Residential Treatment Services project site will drain to the StormTech system. The most
conservative drain time presented in the FCSCM, 40 hours, has been used in the sizing
calculations for the Circle C - Adult Residential Treatment Services.
The WQCV is calculated based on the imperviousness of the project site and the drain time.
Most of the new impervious area on the Circle C - Adult Residential Treatment Services
project site will drain to the StormTech system. The most conservative drain time presented
in the FCSCM, 40 hours, has been used in the sizing calculations for the Circle C - Adult
Residential Treatment Services.
WQCV = a(0.91I 3-1.19I 2+0.78I) Equation 7-1 FCSCM
Where: WQCV = Water Quality Capture Volume (watershed inches)
a = Drain Time Coefficient (1.0 for a drain time of 40 hours)
I = Imperviousness, %/100 (0.88 for Basin B)
For the Circle C - Adult Residential Treatment Services, the resulting WQCV is 0.382
watershed inches.
The FCSCM uses the WQCV above to find the basin storage volume based on the following
equation:
V = (WQCV/12)*A*1.2 Equation 7-2 FCSCM
Where: V = Basin Design Volume (cubic feet)
WQCV = Water Quality Capture Volume (watershed inches)

3.2.2 Step 2: Treat and Slowly Release Runoff
After reducing the runoff from a site, the second step in stormwater quality
management is to capture and slowly release a Water Quality Capture Volume
(WQCV). WQCV facilities may include bioretention, extended detention basins,
sand filters, constructed wetland ponds, and retention ponds.
The StormTech detention system is designed to capture and release the WQCV
for the Circle C - Adult Residential Treatment Services site. The WQCV drain
time for the site is 40 hours.
3.2.3 Step 3: Stabilize Drainageways
Although steps 1 and 2 help to minimize the effects of runoff on downstream
drainageways, natural drainageways are often subject to bed and bank erosion
due to increases in the frequency, rate, duration, and volume of runoff. Step 3
includes measures to prevent drainageway erosion.
There are no drainageways on the Circle C - Adult Residential Treatment
Services site. By implementing steps 1 and 2, the project site does its part to
reduce drainageway erosion downstream.
3.2.4 Step 4: Implementation of Source Controls
The final step in stormwater quality management is source control. Site specific
needs such as material storage or other site operations require consideration of
targeted source control Best Management Practices (BMPs). These BMPs are
shown on the Erosion Control Plan (Appendix C) and explained in the Erosion
Control Report (ECR) for the project site.
3.3 BMP Selection Considerations
The following sections discuss the considerations for determining the best BMP or LID
solution to implement for the project.
3.3.1 Soils
The existing soil condition on the project site must be considered when designing
BMPs. Soils with good permeability provide opportunities for infiltration of runoff
Circle C - Adult Residential Treatment Services Preliminary Drainage Report July 2019

and are well-suited for infiltration based BMPs such as dry wells, permeable
pavement, and grass swales. The soils on the Circle C - Adult Residential
Treatment Services site are in Hydrologic Soil Group B, which is defined as soils
having a moderate infiltration when thoroughly wet. For this reason, infiltration
based BMPs were considered a good option for the project site. Soil information
for the site may be found in Appendix A.
3.3.2 Watershed Size
The contributing drainage area is an important consideration for the design of
BMPs. For a small site, such as Circle C - Adult Residential Services
Treatment, it is not feasible to design a detention pond that releases the WQCV
over a 40-hour drain time due to the small orifices that would be required.
Instead, it is recommended that small watersheds use filtering BMPs, such as the
StormTech system designed for the project site.
3.3.3 Base Flows
BMPs such as constructed wetlands ponds, retention ponds, and wetland
channels require a base flow to prevent the BMPs from becoming dry and
unable to support wetland vegetation. No base flow exists for the Circle C -
Adult Residential Treatment Services site, so no BMPs that require a base flow
were considered for the site.
3.4 BMP Design
The StormTech chamber system utilizes infiltration to reduce the transportation of
pollutants to downstream receiving waters. The system is equipped with an “isolator
row” which consists of wrapping the row of chambers that takes the first flush of storm
runoff with fabric. This row captures the sediment which can be removed and
disposed of as part of the maintenance process.
3.5 Hydrologic Criteria
Per City of Fort Collins criteria, the Rational Formula Method was used for the
hydrologic analysis of the Circle C - Adult Residential Treatment Services project site.
The rainfall intensities (IDF Data) from the FCSCM were used for the calculation of
