GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
LOCATION
The site is located in the North West Quarter of the South West Quarter of Section 1, Township 6
North, Range 69 West of the 6th Principal Meridian in the City of Fort Collins, Larimer County,
Colorado. More specifically, the site is a 1.857 acre property that is currently undeveloped. The site is
located adjacent to S. Collage Ave, and Fossil Creek Pkwy. The site will be developed into a commercial
self-storage facility.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The Guardian Self Storage site is 1.857 acres at the northeast corner to S. Collage Ave and Fossil Creek
Pkwy. The existing site currently has dirt stockpiled on-site. The existing site generally slopes from
northwest to southeast with slopes ranging between 0.70% and 25%. The property is generally covered
with sparse native grasses. The site currently drains from the northwest corner to the southeast corner
to an existing 30”x44” HERCP which outfalls to Fossil Creek, which is located approximately 190 feet
south of the site. The site is tributary to the Fossil Creek drainage basin.
The Guardian Storage site will be developed in concurrence to Snead Drive directly adjacent to the site
along its eastern border as well as open space Tract A with areas of 0.5187 acres and 0.292 acres
respectively.
FLOODPLAIN SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS
The site is on FEMA FIRM panel 08069C1000F. The flood map for this location has a status of "not
printed". This means that the entire area of the panel is in a single flood zone, so FEMA chose to
economize and not create a printable image for this location. The site lies within FEMA Zone X, areas
which are determined to be outside the 0.2% annual chance floodplain. The site is not located within a
FEMA regulated floodway, but the eastern portion of the site is located within the City of Fort Collins
Fossil Creek floodplain and is characterized by the city as “City High Risk – Floodway” as shown in
Appendix A, FC Maps – Guardian Self Storage. The City of Fort Collins is in the process of reanalyzing
and updating the Fossil Creek floodplain and the BFEs (Base Flood Elevations) for Fossil Creek near the
site. The revised BFE at out outfall location was estimated to be 4944.84 and the lowest building finished
floor elevation is set at minimum 18” above that at 4946.60.

DRAINAGE BASINS AND SUB-BASINS
MAJOR BASINS AND SUB-BASINS
The proposed Guardian Self Storage site is located in the Fossil Creek basin. The Fossil Creek drainage
basin extends along the south end of Fort Collins, from the foothills across Interstate 25 past CR 5. It
encompasses 32 square miles in the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County. Historically, the basin
consisted of agricultural land, but the basin has experienced significant development in the recent past.
SUB-BASIN DESCRIPTION
Guardian Storage is governed by the City’s Reasonable Use policy, in which the proposed drainage
basins will need to follow the generally accepted principle of releasing the 100-year developed condition
flow rate at the same location and magnitude as the 2-year pre-development condition flow rate. There
are offsite areas that flow across the proposed development site. The existing drainage basins within
the site flow to the southeast of the site.
EXISTING OFFSITE DRAINAGE BASINS
Currently the site collects offsite runoff from 3 locations: the northwest corner, the northeast
corner and the southeast corner. The existing offsite land use is developed and is discussed in
JR Engineering’s Memorandum Fossil Creek Property Stockpile Permit dated June 8th 2017, see
Appendix E. These offsite flows will be collected in inlets and piped through the site to the
outfall location, a 30”x42” HERCP in the southeast corner of the site that drains directly to
Fossil Creek. The offsite flows will be routed through the site separately from any onsite runoff
and will be piped directly to the outfall location, no detention or water quality will be provided
for the offsite runoff. Any onsite runoff from the site development and Snead Drive will be
collected in curb and gutter or inlets and piped to the proposed sand filter which will provided
LID treatment and water quality for onsite runoff only.
PROPOSED SUB-BASINS DESCRIPTIONS
The proposed Sub-Basins are discussed below. The sub-basin represents basins that are
adjacent to the site, as shown in the Appendix D, Drainage Map.

DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
REGULATIONS
This report was prepared to meet or exceed the City of Fort Collins stormwater criteria. The City of
Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual (dated 2018)(FCSCM) and the Urban Drainage Flood Control
District’s (UDFCD) Drainage Criteria Manual (USDCM) Volumes 1, 2 and 3 were referenced as
guidelines for this design.
MINIMIZATION OF THE DCIA
Volume reduction is an important part of the Four Step Process and is fundamental to effective
stormwater management. Per City criteria, a minimum of 50 percent of new impervious surface area
must be treated by a Low-Impact Development (LID) best management practice (BMP). The proposed
LID BMPs will have the effect of slowing runoff through the site lot and increasing infiltration and rainfall
interception by encouraging infiltration and careful selection of vegetative cover. The improvements will
decrease the runoff coefficient from the site and are expected to have no adverse impact on the timing,
quantity, or quality of stormwater runoff. 100% of the new impervious area is treated by the proposed
sand filter in the southeast corner of the site as illustrated in the LID/Surface Map is provided in
Appendix G.
DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA REFERENCE AND CONSTRAINTS
The master drainage report for the Fossil Creek Drainage Basin was prepared by ICON Engineering,
Inc. April 9tthh, 2002. Guardian Storage falls within element 30 in the SWMM file associated with the
master drainage report. The development of the Guardian Storage site must not have a negative impact
on downstream discharges, volumes and water surface elevations. The elements directly downstream
from the Guardian Storage site are elements 47 and 29 from the master SWMM file.
HYDROLOGIC CRITERIA
The rational method was performed to calculate the peak runoff rates for each basin. Weighted percent
imperviousness and weighted runoff coefficients were calculated for each basin using USDCM Tables 6-4
and 6-5 based on Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Type B hydrologic soil classification
and surface characteristics of each basin. The time of concentration was calculated using FCSCM
Equation 5-3 and the intensity was interpolated from Table 3.4-1 in the FCSCM. The City of Fort Collins

area has 2-year, 1-hour rainfall depth of 0.82 inches and a 100-year, 1-hour rainfall depth of 2.86 inches.
These depths do account for the 1997 adjusted rainfall depths.
HYDRAULIC CRITERIA
The ultimate Guardian Self Storage storm drainage system will be designed to convey the minor and
major storm events through the property with the proposed inlets, storm sewer pipes, and swales for
the flows being calculated by this report. Per the requirements provided by the City of Fort Collins
Storm Drainage Design Criteria and Construction Manual, all inlets and storm pipes will be designed to
convey the 100-year storm flows. During the major storm event, the developed condition 100-year
storm, the accumulated water depth in the sand filter will be held to a maximum level of one-foot below
all building finished floor elevations.
FLOODPLAIN REGULATIONS COMPLIANCE
As previously stated, the eastern portion of the Guardian Self storage site is within the City of Fort
Collins Fossil Creek flood plain. The City of Fort Collins is in the process of reanalyzing and updating
the Fossil Creek floodplain and the BFEs (Base Flood Elevations) for Fossil Creek near the site. The
revised BFE at out outfall location was estimated to be 4945.00 and as such the lowest building finished
floor elevation is set at least 18” above that at 4946.60. The portion of the site that is within the
floodplain is located within the ineffective flow area of the Fossil Creek floodplain model and a no-rise
memo will be completed to show that the proposed development is within the ineffective flow area and
will therefore result in no-rise of the BFE.
MODIFICATIONS OF CRITERIA
Chapter 6, Section 1.1 of the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual states that stormwater
detention is required on site. There are four characteristics of the site that make meeting the detention
requirements in the Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual not feasible. First, this site has a large
amount of offsite runoff being routed through it to Fossil Creek in its current condition. In the proposed
condition, the offsite water needs to be collected in pipes and routed through the site and not through a
detention pond, creating a complicated stormwater pipe network that limits the space and depth that
would be needed for a detention pond. Second, the site is only about 2.15 acres in size but has
approximately twelve feet of elevation difference from the northwest corner to the southeast corner of

the site which creates a significant challenge for grading the site, roadway, and a detention pond to be
able to tie out appropriately to the site outfall and boundary. Third, the City of Fort Collins right of way
dedicated for the extension of Snead Drive to Fossil Creek Parkway bisects the site. Additional right of
way is proposed to be dedicated for the Snead Drive extension which removes additional site area.
Lastly, the Snead right of way is also composed of wetland areas that need to be mitigated. The wetland
mitigation and replacement takes up more of the already limited site area. It is for these reasons that a
variance to the detention requirement is being sought.
Due to the site's proximity to Fossil Creek, a "beat the peak" alternative in conjunction with a sand filter
sized to treat 100% of the proposed impervious area is the proposed alternative to the detention
requirement.
BEAT THE PEAK ANALYSIS
Per Chapter 6, Section 2.5 of the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria, if a site is nearby to a
drainage or water way and the proposed site hydrograph is shown to “beat the peak” stormwater
detention may be eliminated from the site. The City of Fort Collins provided the master hydrology
model for Fossil Creek. The Guardian Storage site is located within Basin 30 in the SWMM model. Basin
30 was modified per the proposed Guardian Storage site condition within the model. A summary of the
results can be seen in Table 1 below.

DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
GENERAL CONCEPT
The proposed improvements to the Guardian Storage site will result in developed condition runoff being
conveyed around the proposed building and to the east via storm sewer and surface flow. Low-impact
development best management practices are proposed to improve the quality of runoff and aid in
reducing peak flows. Specifically, a sand filter is proposed on the southeast sides of the site to improve
water quality.
Runoff from the site is captured in inlets located in the parking lot, the drive aisle to the north of the
building, and in Snead Drive. Runoff is conveyed in storm sewers, along curb and gutter, and via surface
flow to the proposed sand filter at the south end of the site. Secondly, surface overflow paths have been
provided, such that the 100-year storm flows remain at least one foot below the finished floor elevation
in a fully clogged inlet condition.
WATER QUALITY/ DETENTION FACILITIES
The Guardian Self Storage sand filter water–quality treatment facility is located at the southern portion
of the site near Snead Drive and Fossil Creek Pkwy. The Urban Drainage UD-BMP spreadsheet version
3.07 was utilized to design and size the proposed sand filter. The sand filter design details can be found
in Appendix D.
LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT
A minimum of 50 percent of new impervious surface area is treated by a Low-Impact Development
(LID) best management practice (BMP) in accordance with City criteria. The BMPs proposed for the
Guardian Storage site are a sand filter for water quality treatment. Of the total 1.73 acres of new
impervious area, all 1.73 acres are treated by LIDs (100%). Since more than 75% of the site is treated by
LID the minimum threshold of permeable pavers for new parking is not required. An illustrative LID/
Surface Map is provided in Appendix G and the sizing of the LID sand filter is provided in Appendix D.

CONCLUSIONS
COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS
The hydrologic and water quality calculations were performed using the required methods as outlined in
the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. The proposed drainage improvements meet or
exceed the City’s requirements except for the detention requirement in Chapter 6, Section 1.1. A
variance request has been submitted in conjunction with this report. This report exhibits that both the
storm water systems meet or exceed the requirements set forth in the City of Fort Collins “Storm
Drainage Criteria Manual and Construction Standards” and addenda.
DRAINAGE CONCEPT
The proposed concept for the development of the Guardian Self Storage site involves surface flows and
piping of developed conditions flows to a proposed onsite sand filter. LID site enhancements will treat
the site runoff at the source before outfall to Fossil Creek. All the offsite flows will be conveyed through
the site and directly released at the quality and rate that has historically passed through the site. The
existing conditions drainage patterns are maintained in the proposed and future conditions. The
proposed improvements will have no adverse impacts on the flow rate, character, or quality of runoff
leaving the site.

MEMORANDUM
JR Engineering, LLC has completed an existing condition preliminary storm drainage evaluation for the
Fossil Creek Stockpile Permit application. The following memorandum and calculations summarizes the
findings discovered for the existing condition 100 year storm drainage tributary to the site in order to
quantify and route the existing runoff through the site during the stockpile period.
JR investigated this site’s contributing runoff within the fossil creek area using a combination of approved
final drainage reports, drainage map, and existing storm basin calculations. The basins and the runoff
associated with each are shown in Appendix A. All basin calculations can be found in Appendix B
including the inlet calculations at design points 4, 5, 6, and 16. The seemingly abandoned drainage ditch
and 16’’ CMP StormCAD model results are also found in Appendix B. All inlet calculations were
performed within UD-Inlet Version 4.05. For the purpose of this memorandum, only the 100 year storm
event flows will be considered.
Upon reading the “Master Drainage Report for Arbor Plaza and Final Drainage Report for Arbor Plaza
Phase 1” prepared by Drexel, Barrell & Co. dated January 16, 1986, the runoff from this basin is routed
underneath South College Avenue to Mail Creek. It should also be noted that according to the
“Hydrologic and Hydraulic Report – South Transit Center” by HDR dated May 2011, the runoff from the
South Transit Center is captured in a detention pond and released along Fossil Boulevard towards Fossil
Creek. For the above mentioned reasons, the runoff from these two northwesterly sites does not end up at
the Fossil Creek Stockpile Site.
Basin Description
Basin A:
Basin A is characterized by approximately 9.82 acres of developed commercial land used for the
Spradley Barr Dealership. Runoff from this basin was referenced from the “Final Drainage and
Erosion Control Study for the Spradley Barr Dealership Fort Collins, Colorado” by The Sear-Brown
Group dated December 8, 1997. During the 100 year storm event, the runoff ends up in a detention
pond located in the southeast portion of the site where 2.29cfs is released in an inlet at Design Point
1a(DP1a) and routed east across college to the existing trapezoidal irrigation ditch. There is an
additional 11.84cfs that is released into the South College Avenue curb and gutter at DP1b.
