Drainage Report Cover Letter
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (Kimley-Horn) is submitting this Drainage Report Cover Letter for the above
referenced project. The purpose of this letter is to serve as an outline for the proposed development and associated
drainage.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed Mulberry Connection Project is located within the Northeast Quarter of Section 9, Township 7 North,
Range 68 West of the Sixth Principal Meridian, City of Fort Collins, County of Larimer, Colorado. A vicinity map is
provided below.

conveys these flows to the inflow infiltration basin. The detention pond also includes a maintenance path
the length of the pond.
A modified CDOT Type D inlet is proposed to serve as the outlet structure for the detention pond. The
trickle channel is proposed to flow up to the base of the inlet. A 0.5-foot wide by 0.9-foot high square orifice
is proposed at the trickle channel flowline/bottom of structure on the outside face of the structure. A trash
rack is proposed over the orifice plate. The orifice is sized to release 3.40 CFS, which is the required 100-
year release rate. The top of the inlet is set at an elevation of 4951.00, allowing any ponded water into the
inlet. A second orifice plate over the outlet pipe with the same orifice dimensions is required to ensure the
100-year release rate is met. A 15-inch RCP storm pipe will convey flows from the outlet structure to the
existing roadside swale. The crest of the emergency overflow spillway is set at the 100-year water surface
elevation and 1.5-foot below the top of berm elevation. Spillway calculations provided in Appendix D
indicate that the undetained 100-year flow rate flowing over the spillway will pond 0.5 feet above the crest.
Maintenance of the detention pond is provided via a 12-foot gravel maintenance path accessible north of
the pond via mountable curb in the parking lot. A 10-foot grass maintenance path along the bottom of the
pond to allows access to the inflow infiltration basin and outlet structure. A drainage easement has been
provided around the detention pond.

Storm Sewer Conveyance
Storm sewer pipe is proposed to connect sub-basins A, B, C, and D to the detention pond. The main
stormline (rain garden C to detention pond) has been designed so that there is minimal ponding in the 100-
year storm event. The tailwater condition into the pond was set at an elevation of 4949.66, which is the
maximum ponding elevation with the inflow infiltration basin. This tailwater elevation causes minimal
surcharging to occur at the Rain Garden C inlet and Inlet D4, just downstream of Rain Garden C in the 100-
year storm event. Ponded water within Rain Garden C will pond to an elevation of 4953.70 (2.4 feet below
FFE) before overtopping the south sidewalk and flowing into Redman Drive and the I-25 Frontage Road. A
ponding depth above the inlet rim of 0.60 feet will occur. Ponded water at Inlet D4 will pond to an elevation
of 4955.42 (0.68 feet below FFE) before spilling over the berm at the southern property line and flow into
Redman Drive. A ponding depth of 2.42 feet above the rim of the inlet will occur before the berm if
overtopped.
Due to the required elevations within the loading dock area, ponding will occur within this area during the
100-year storm event. In addition to the HGL surcharging at all these locations, when the detention pond is
at the 100-year water surface elevation (4952.00), the water surface will equalize into this area. The

flows, therefore, the runoff will overtop the crown and utilize both sides of the street. A ponding depth of
8.1-inches at the curb flowline will result in a spread of 33.8 feet. Street capacity calculations are included
in Appendix D. Flows that overtop the crown will flow south into the existing swale and culverts along the
south side of the road. In the 100-year storm event, flows from the north side of the road will combine with
flows from the south side of the road. This combined runoff will flow into the existing swales, which have
depths between 3 and 5 feet. Runoff will continue to flow south through the existing 12” CMP culverts
beneath the southern driveways. These culverts do not have capacity to convey all the proposed 100-year
flows, therefore, water will pond in the swales and then overtop into the roadway, continuing to flow west,
bypassing the culverts. All flows in Redman Drive will flow west into Cooper Slough.
VARIANCE REQUESTS
A variance is requested to allow the inflow infiltration basin within the detention pond. A separate variance
request has been submitted.
EROSION CONTROL
A separate Erosion Control Report will be provided in addition to this Final Drainage Report.
CONCLUSIONS
COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS
The Mulberry Connection project is in compliance with City of Fort Collins criteria for storm drainage design.
The “Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual, December 2018 Edition,” and the Urban Drainage Flood
Control District “Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual Volumes 1, 2, and 3 have been utilized for
reference.
SUMMARY OF CONCEPT
The proposed drainage concept is to surface flow runoff from impervious areas to pervious area to the
extent practicable. Two rain gardens and one underground facility are proposed to treat the WQCV from as
much of the Site as possible. A detention pond is proposed to detain the on-site 100-year runoff volume to
the 2-year historic on-site flow. Downstream impacts due to the development of this Site are not anticipated.
