DRAINAGE AND
EROSION CONTROL STUDY FOR
CASTLE RIDGE AT MIRAMONT P.U.D.
FIRST FILING
FORT COLLINS, COLORADO
1. GENERAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
A. Location
The Castle Ridge at Miramont First Filing development is located in the
southeast part of Fort Collins, south of Harmony Road, and west of Lemay
Avenue. The First Filing will be just to the south of The Upper Meadow at
Miramont Second Filing and just to the north of Werner Elementary School.
A vicinity map of the proposed site is included in the appendix. More
particularly, the site is situated in the east half of Section 1, Township 6
North, Range 69 West, of the 6th P.M., City of Fort Collins, Larimer County,
Colorado.
B. Description of Property
The Castle Ridge at Miramont First Filing contains 14.0 acres more or less.
The area is currently undeveloped and is being proposed for single family
residential construction with 18 lots. The site currently consists of cultivated
farmland. The Mail Creek irrigation ditch runs in a northwest to southeast
direction immediately north of the site. Topography for the site is generally
sloping from the north to the south at approximately 4%.
II. DRAINAGE BASINS
A. Major Basin Description
The Castle Ridge at Miramont First Filing lies within the Mail Creek Basin
per the vicinity map in the appendix. No major drainageway exists within the
site.
■ B. Sub -Basin Description
1
Historic drainage patterns of the subject site are southwesterly across the
site to an existing roadside ditch along the east side of Mail Creek Lane
■ which directs storm water runoff south to Mail Creek.
III. DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
A. Regulations
The City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria is being used for the
subject site.
B. Deveiopment Criteria Reference and Constraints
The Castle Ridge at Miramont First Filing historically drains southerly along
Mail Creek Lane. The Mail Creek Basin Master Drainage Plan criteria and
constraints recommends the northern portion of the site to drain down
Castleridge Drive into Mail Creek. According to the Mail Creek Overall
Drainage Plan there is to be a future water feature to the east of Highcastle
approximately 300' south of the site. In the interim flow is to be routed to
the site of this future water feature, which is to be usect for a sediment
control basin. The remainder of the site is to flow to the west into an
existing roadside ditch along the east of Mail Creek Lane.
C. Hydrological Criteria
The Rational method is being used to determine runoff peak flows from the
site and surrounding off -site tributary areas. The 2 and 100 year rainfall
criteria, which was obtained from the City of Fort Collins, is the criteria
which was utilized. The criteria is included in the appendix.
D. Hydraulic Criteria
All calculations within this study have been prepared in accordance with the
City of Fort Collins Drainage Criteria.
E. Variances from Criteria
No variances are being sought for this project.

IV. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
A. General Concept
The Castle Ridge Meadow at Miramont First Filing is planned as a single
family residential housing development. The First Filing will consist of 18
lots. Storm water flows for the northern portion of the site and for Highcastle
Drive will be routed to a sediment control basin approximately 300' south
of the site. Overflow from the basin will follow natural drainage patterns
south into Mail Creek. Flows from this portion of the site will ultimately run
down Highcastle Drive into Mail Creek. The location for this basin was
determined from the Overall Drainage Plan for Mail Creek Basin. The
southern portion of the site will generally follow historic drainage patterns.
It will be directed to the southeast corner of the property into an existing
roadside ditch along Mail Creek Lane, which flows southerly into Mail Creek.
Included in the back pocket of this report is the drainage plan for the First
Filing.
B. Specific Details
Mail Creek irrigation ditch flows along the northern property line. Highcastle
Drive will be crossing over the ditch. The existing ditch geometry is a 10'
bottom width with 2:1 side slopes. Proposed for the crossing is an 8'x4'
reinforced concrete box culvert with 45 degree wing walls. Included in the
appendix is the HEC-2 runs showing the crossing.
Basin 1 includes portions of lots 1 through 5 which will drain to the rear of
the lots and be intercepted by a grass lined swale which will direct the flow
onto Highcastle Drive.
Basin 2 includes the front portion of lots 1 through 5 and 11 through 13 as
well as a major portion of roadway. The flows through the basin will be
directed to the east onto Highcastle Drive.
Basin 7 includes the western half of Highcastle Drive as well as a minor
portion of lots 17 and 18. It receives the flows from basins 1 and 2 and
directs the flow along the gutter into a grass lined swale which curves along
the outside of the temporary turnaround. The swale joins with another swale
- which contains flows from basin 8. Basin 8 includes the eastern half of
Highcastle Drive as well as off -site drainage which flows into the street. The
swale then flows south approximately 300' into the sediment control basin.
3
Basin 9 is off -site flow which goes into the sediment control basin. The
overflow weir from the basin is sized for the 100 year storm flow, which is
to follow natural drainage patterns into Mail Creek.
Basin 3 includes portions of lots 10 through 15 and all of the cul-de-sac. A
swale is to be created along the drainage easement to the rear of lots 11
and 12. Flow is directed to the southern end of the cul-de-sac to a low
point, where the 100 year flow is intercepted by a curb inlet. It is then to be
piped to the grass lined swale along the rear of the lots.
Basin 4 includes the "hammerhead" cul-de-sac, lot 7, and a portion of lot 6.
Flow is directed to the south to a low point at the end of cul-de-sac. A
concrete sidewalk culvert is to intercept a major portion of the flow with the
remainder overtopping the sidewalk and flowing into a grass lined swale.
The sidewalk culvert is to outlet into the swale which flows to the south into
the open space area in the southwest corner of the site.
Basin 6 includes the southern portion of the site. It receives flows from
basins 3 and 4 and routes them to the southwest corner of the site. The
flow then outlets into an existing roadside ditch along the east edge of Mail
Creek Lane. The Ditch then routes the flow to the south into Mail Creek.
Basin 5 includes lot 8 and portions of lots 5 and 6. The flow follows existing
drainage patterns into the roadside ditch to the east of Mail Creek Lane
where it joins the flow from basin 6.
aV. EROSION CONTROL
® A. General Concept
© The Castle Ridge at Miramont First Filing lies within the Moderate Rainfall
and Wind Erodibility Zone per the City of Fort Collins zone maps. The
potential exists for erosion problems during construction, and after
construction until the disturbed ground is again vegetated. It is anticipated
that the First Filing construction will begin in the Fall of 1993, and be
completed in the Spring of 1993.
Per the City of Fort Collins Erosion Control Reference Manual for
Construction Sites and related calculations in the appendix, the erosion
control performance standard for this site is 82.8%. From the calculations
in the appendix, the effectiveness of the proposed erosion control plan is
86.8% during the construction portion of this development. Therefore the
erosion control plan as specifically detailed below, will meet the City of Fort
f
0
Collins requirements.
B. Specific Details
Before overlot grading, the sediment control basin shall be constructed.
After the overlot grading has been completed, all disturbed areas, not in a
roadway, shall have a temporary vegetation seed applied per the City of
Fort Collins specification. After seeding, a hay or straw mulch shall be
applied over the seed at a rate of 2 tons/acre, minimum, and the mulch
shall be adequately anchored, tacked or crimped into the soil per the
methods shown on the Drainage and Erosion Control plan. After the utilities
have been installed, the roadway surfaces should receive the pavement
structure. After installation of the curb inlets, the inlets shall be filtered with
a combination of concrete blocks, 1 /2 inch wire screen, and 3/4 inch
course gravel. The straw bale barriers should be installed in conjunction
with the overlot grading process.
VI. 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.
B. Drainage Concept
The proposed drainage concepts adequately provide for the transmission
of developed on -site runoff to sediment control basin and on to natural
drainage patterns into Mail Creek. They are also in compliance with the
Overall Drainage Plan for the Mail Creek Basin.
I C. Erosion Control Concept
'The proposed erosion control concepts adequately provide for the control
_ of wind and rainfall erosion from the Castle Ridge at Miramont First Filing.
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.
