To whom it may concern:
This letter serves to address the stormwater impacts of the proposed project known as “Homestead at
Clarendon Hills”. The site is located in southwest Fort Collins bounded to the north by Front Range
Community College, to the east by existing Clarendon Hills Subdivision, to the south by Clarendon
Hills Drive and Langdale Drive, and to the west by South Shields Street. The project is part of the
Drainage Report for Clarendon Hills by Stuart and Associates written in 1986. The proposed
development consists of 8 low-density single-family lots and a detention area. The project site also
contains an existing irrigation ditch along the north property line.
The project was included in the drainage report for Clarendon Hills Subdivision. Therefore, this letter
intends to show conformance with the approved drainage design, including general drainage patterns
and imperviousness. This letter also documents how the project meets new Low Impact Development
requirements implemented City of Fort Collins since the approval of the original project.
Original Drainage Patterns
The original Clarendon Hill drainage design divided the subdivision into 3 basins. The current project
site is split by two of these basins - Drainage Basin A draining to the north, and Drainage Basin B
draining to the south. Drainage Basin B flows into Clarendon Hills Drive and Langdale Drive and
travels via gutter and pan flow south along Clarendon Hills Drive. The flow is then collected by inlets
at Clarendon Hills Drive and Hinsdale Drive and conveyed to a series of existing detention ponds.
Drainage Basin A generally flows to the northeast to an existing irrigation ditch on the property. A
small undisturbed area north of irrigation ditch will flow into the Front Range Community College
drainage system. From there, it flows through existing drainage ways east to Mail Creek, and
eventually to Fossil Creek. An Existing Drainage Exhibit has been provided in the appendices for
reference, along with excerpts from the original report.
Proposed Drainage Patterns
The Homestead at Clarendon Hills project has divided the site into seven proposed drainage basins
that essentially follow the established drainage patterns, as well as the drainage patterns approved
Page | 3
with the Drainage Report for Clarendon Hills. The site is composed of proposed Basin A, which
encompasses the rear of the lots and open space between the rear lot lines and the existing irrigation
ditch. The only proposed improvements with Basin A are landscaping in the rear of the lots. Flows
from the basin will drain north into the irrigation ditch.
Basin B will roughly match the existing area draining south to the existing Clarendon Hills ponds.
Proposed improvements will include single-family homes, the front and side of the lots, driveways,
walks, and detention area. All proposed roof drains will drain south to the proposed detention area.
Basin B is further subdivided into Basins B1, B2, B3, and B4. Basins B1 and B3 consists of the two lots
(Lots 1 and 8) at the west and east ends, and Basins B1 and B3 will discharge into the Clarendon Hills
and Langdon Drives curb and gutter. Basin B2 consists of the Lots 2 through 7 and driveways and
discharge into the detention pond. Basin B4 consists of the landscaping along the front of the pond
that is incapable of draining into the detention pond. The release rate from the detention pond is
reduced to accommodate the undetained releases from Basins B1, B3, and B4.
Additionally, Basin OS1 and OS2 are on the east and the north sides of the site to quantify flows to the
Front Range Community College campus. Basin OS1 consists of the side and rear of Lot 8 and
adjacent open space. Basin OS2 is a small sliver of open space on the north side of the irrigation ditch
that drains directly to the Front Range Community College campus.
Development of Existing Runoff Coefficient
The drainage for Clarendon Hills Subdivision was originally analyzed in the Drainage Report:
Clarendon Hills: Fort Collins, Colorado prepared by Stuart and Associates in 1986 as part of the approval
process for Clarendon Hills 1st Filing. Homestead for Clarendon Hills is in the northwest corner of the
original drainage master plan for Clarendon Hills 1st Filing. In the approved original drainage report
for Clarendon Hills (1st Filing), the project site was planned as office and multi-family with a
developed runoff coefficient of C=0.50.
According to the approved drainage report for Clarendon Hills 4th Filing, prepared by Land
Development Services and dated April 9, 1991, a church site of 8.27 acres in the middle of the
Clarendon Hills 4th Filing was assumed to be an offsite undeveloped drainage basin with a developed
runoff coefficient of C=0.25. According to the approved drainage report for Clarendon Hills 6th Filing,
prepared by Land Development Services and dated January 8, 1992, the original developer of
Clarendon Hills swapped the northwest corner of Clarendon Hills (including Homestead for
Clarendon Hills) for the church site in Clarendon Hills 4th Filing. The old church site was then
developed as Clarendon Hills 6th Filing with runoff coefficients from 0.28 to 0.70.
Because of the subsequent drainage studies and land swaps, we assumed an existing runoff coefficient
of C=0.25 for Homestead at Clarendon Hills. A runoff coefficient of 0.25 is consistent with the
following design considerations:
• The Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual for lawns with clayey soil and an average slope of
2% to 7% requires a runoff coefficient of C = 0.25. The existing slopes throughout the site is
between 2% to 7% with clayey soil.
Page | 4
• The drainage report for Clarendon Hills 4th Filing assumed a runoff coefficient C=0.25 for the
church site, and the church site was subsequently part of a land swap for the northwest corner
of the Clarendon Hills Subdivision.
Detention
Assuming a historic runoff coefficient of 0.25, detention from Basin B was accounted for in the original
Clarendon Hills drainage report provided the overall flow at Design Point B does not exceed 1.9 cfs.
Because of the increased impervious area within Basin B, a detention is required within Basin B2 to
reduce the post-developed flow rates at Design Point to equal or less than 1.9 cfs. Since Basins B1, B3,
and B4 will be released into the surrounding curb and gutter undetained, the detention pond in Basin
B2 is designed to release the 100-year event at 0.24 cfs. A release rate of 0.24 cfs is required to maintain
a 100-year flow rate of 1.9 cfs at Design Point B.
Inlets
By limiting the 100-year flowrate at Design Point B, the flowrate at the existing inlets will match or
decrease from the projected flowrates in the previously approved Clarendon Hills drainage reports.
This results in matching or decreasing runoff to the existing inlets that were designed and approved
with the earlier project, so no additional inlet calculations have been provided as a part of this report.
Water Quality/LID Conformance
City LID requirements specify that 50% of all single-family areas receive water quality treatment from
a LID facility. This project proposes to treat at least 50% of the new impervious areas through two rain
gardens on either side of the detention pond. The rain gardens will also provide water quality
treatment for the project site. Furthermore, there will be a vegetated buffer between the rear lot lines
and the irrigation ditch.
Although exact impervious area is unavailable at this preliminary stage, a majority of the lots area will
drain towards the rain gardens or across the vegetated buffer. The front 2/3rds of the lot will graded
to drain south towards the rain gardens. A LID Treatment Exhibit is provided with this report details
treatment area and method.
Erosion and Sediment Control
During construction, the Contractor will follow the appropriate and applicable City of Fort Collins
standards for erosion and sediment control. Since more than 10,000 sf will be disturbed as a part of
this project, a comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan will be prepared for this project at final
design. Post construction water quality and erosion control will be achieved by a fully established and
stabilized site. All areas disturbed during construction will receive permanent hardscape, landscape,
or building structure.
Floodplains
There are no regulatory floodplains associated with the project.
Conclusions
The proposed grading concept matches the original drainage patterns. The site matches or decreases
the designed imperviousness draining to the existing Clarendon Hills curb and gutter. Onsite
Page | 5
detention will be provided for the increased imperviousness of the area draining to towards the
existing Clarendon Hills ponds, and onsite detention will be required to maintain historic flow rates
within Clarendon Hills. Stormwater quality has been provided and meets the city requirements for
Low Impact Development treatment. Therefore, it is my professional opinion that Homestead at
Clarendon Hills satisfies all applicable stormwater criteria and will effectively limit potential damage
associated with its stormwater runoff.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions or require additional information.

Note:
Existing coverage consists of well established native grasses with over 95% coverage. As much existing
vegetation and grading will be preserved as feasibly possible. Disturbed areas within vegetated buffer
will occur along rear lot lines, and this work is necessary to daylight lot grades into existing topography.
Any disturbed areas will be replaced with a native grass seed mixture and landscaping in accordance
with the erosion control and landscaping plans.
Average slopes are around 2.5% towards the south and east and gradually get steeper towards the north
and west. An existing irrigation ditch along the north edge of the grass buffer impacts the slopes along
the north edge of the grass buffer. The steeper slopes, greater than 5.0%, are generally along the
irrigation ditch.
Some minor grading will be required in the grass buffer to daylight proposed lawn grades into existing
grades. However, any disturbed areas within the grass buffer will be revegetated per the erosion control

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas.
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nrcs) or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nrcs142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as
septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to
basements or underground installations.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States
Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the
Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

How Soil Surveys Are Made
Soil surveys are made to provide information about the soils and miscellaneous
areas in a specific area. They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous
areas and their location on the landscape and tables that show soil properties and
limitations affecting various uses. Soil scientists observed the steepness, length,
and shape of the slopes; the general pattern of drainage; the kinds of crops and
native plants; and the kinds of bedrock. They observed and described many soil
profiles. A soil profile is the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a soil. The
profile extends from the surface down into the unconsolidated material in which the
soil formed or from the surface down to bedrock. The unconsolidated material is
devoid of roots and other living organisms and has not been changed by other
biological activity.
Currently, soils are mapped according to the boundaries of major land resource
areas (MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that
share common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate, water
resources, soils, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Soil survey
areas typically consist of parts of one or more MLRA.
The soils and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur in an orderly pattern that
is related to the geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural vegetation of the
area. Each kind of soil and miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind
of landform or with a segment of the landform. By observing the soils and
miscellaneous areas in the survey area and relating their position to specific
segments of the landform, a soil scientist develops a concept, or model, of how they
were formed. Thus, during mapping, this model enables the soil scientist to predict
with a considerable degree of accuracy the kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a
specific location on the landscape.
Commonly, individual soils on the landscape merge into one another as their
characteristics gradually change. To construct an accurate soil map, however, soil
scientists must determine the boundaries between the soils. They can observe only
a limited number of soil profiles. Nevertheless, these observations, supplemented
by an understanding of the soil-vegetation-landscape relationship, are sufficient to
verify predictions of the kinds of soil in an area and to determine the boundaries.
Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the soil profiles that they studied. They
noted soil color, texture, size and shape of soil aggregates, kind and amount of rock
fragments, distribution of plant roots, reaction, and other features that enable them
to identify soils. After describing the soils in the survey area and determining their
properties, the soil scientists assigned the soils to taxonomic classes (units).
Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each taxonomic class has a set of soil
characteristics with precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a basis for
comparison to classify soils systematically. Soil taxonomy, the system of taxonomic
classification used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind and character
of soil properties and the arrangement of horizons within the profile. After the soil
5
scientists classified and named the soils in the survey area, they compared the
individual soils with similar soils in the same taxonomic class in other areas so that
they could confirm data and assemble additional data based on experience and
research.
The objective of soil mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components; the
objective is to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that
have similar use and management requirements. Each map unit is defined by a
unique combination of soil components and/or miscellaneous areas in predictable
proportions. Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components
of the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way
diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The delineation of such
landforms and landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite
investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas.
Soil scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a soil map.
The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of
mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape,
and experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the
soil-landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the soils at
specific locations. Once the soil-landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller
number of measurements of individual soil properties are made and recorded.
These measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color,
depth to bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for
content of sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each soil
typically vary from one point to another across the landscape.
Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of
characteristics for the components. The aggregated values are presented. Direct
measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit
component. Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other
properties.
While a soil survey is in progress, samples of some of the soils in the area generally
are collected for laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil scientists
interpret the data from these analyses and tests as well as the field-observed
characteristics and the soil properties to determine the expected behavior of the
soils under different uses. Interpretations for all of the soils are field tested through
observation of the soils in different uses and under different levels of management.
Some interpretations are modified to fit local conditions, and some new
interpretations are developed to meet local needs. Data are assembled from other
sources, such as research information, production records, and field experience of
specialists. For example, data on crop yields under defined levels of management
are assembled from farm records and from field or plot experiments on the same
kinds of soil.
Predictions about soil behavior are based not only on soil properties but also on
such variables as climate and biological activity. Soil conditions are predictable over
long periods of time, but they are not predictable from year to year. For example,
soil scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that a given soil will
have a high water table within certain depths in most years, but they cannot predict
that a high water table will always be at a specific level in the soil on a specific date.
After soil scientists located and identified the significant natural bodies of soil in the
survey area, they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial photographs and

identified each as a specific map unit. Aerial photographs show trees, buildings,
fields, roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating boundaries accurately.

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the
soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along
with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named
according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic
class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the
landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the
characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some
observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class.
Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without
including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made
up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor
components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils.
Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the
map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called
noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They
generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the
scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas
are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a
given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit
descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor
components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not
mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it
was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and
miscellaneous areas on the landscape.
The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the
usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate
pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or
Custom Soil Resource Report
11
landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The
delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however,
onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous
areas.
An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions.
Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil
properties and qualities.
Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major
horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement.
Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness,
salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the
basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas
shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase
commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha
silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas.
These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups.
A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate
pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps.
The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar
in all areas. Alpha-Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example.
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present
or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered
practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The
pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat
similar. Alpha-Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas
that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar
interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion
of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can
be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made
up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil
material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.

Soil Information for All Uses
Soil Properties and Qualities
The Soil Properties and Qualities section includes various soil properties and
qualities displayed as thematic maps with a summary table for the soil map units in
the selected area of interest. A single value or rating for each map unit is generated
by aggregating the interpretive ratings of individual map unit components. This
aggregation process is defined for each property or quality.
Soil Erosion Factors
Soil Erosion Factors are soil properties and interpretations used in evaluating the
soil for potential erosion. Example soil erosion factors can include K factor for the
whole soil or on a rock free basis, T factor, wind erodibility group and wind erodibility
index.
Wind Erodibility Index
The wind erodibility index is a numerical value indicating the susceptibility of soil to
wind erosion, or the tons per acre per year that can be expected to be lost to wind
erosion. There is a close correlation between wind erosion and the texture of the
surface layer, the size and durability of surface clods, rock fragments, organic
matter, and a calcareous reaction. Soil moisture and frozen soil layers also
influence wind erosion.

Soil Qualities and Features
Soil qualities are behavior and performance attributes that are not directly
measured, but are inferred from observations of dynamic conditions and from soil
properties. Example soil qualities include natural drainage, and frost action. Soil
features are attributes that are not directly part of the soil. Example soil features
include slope and depth to restrictive layer. These features can greatly impact the
use and management of the soil.
Hydrologic Soil Group
Hydrologic soil groups are based on estimates of runoff potential. Soils are
assigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when the
soils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive precipitation
from long-duration storms.
The soils in the United States are assigned to four groups (A, B, C, and D) and
three dual classes (A/D, B/D, and C/D). The groups are defined as follows:
Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when thoroughly
wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands or
gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission.
Custom Soil Resource Report
22
Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These
consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained
soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture. These soils
have a moderate rate of water transmission.
Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist
chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or
soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of water
transmission.
Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when
thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink-swell
potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layer at
or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material.
These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission.
If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D, or C/D), the first letter is
for drained areas and the second is for undrained areas. Only the soils that in their
natural condition are in group D are assigned to dual classes.

Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator
projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts
distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the
Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more

Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator
projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts
distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the
Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more
accurate calculations of distance or area are required.
