Existing Site Condition 1. Approximately 45% of the site consists of Fort Collins Loam Hydrologic Group C, is well drained with low runoff potential. Approximately 40% of the site consists Nunn Clay Loam Hydrologic Group C, is well drained with medium runoff potential. Approximately 15% of the site consists of Stoneham loam Hydrologic Group C, is well drained with low runoff potential. The site consists of a three to six inch vegetative and top soil layer over sandy lean clay according to the Page 2 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado Geotechnical Subsurface Exploration Report for the Voice of Truth Tabernacle by Soilogic, titled “Geotechnical Subsurface Exploration Report For Lot 1, Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision Located At, 1108 North Timberline Road, City of Fort Collins, Colorado” for Voice of Truth Tabernacle; Soilogic Project No. 19-1028; report dated January 30, 2020. Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision has a total project area of approximately 3.00 acres. 2. The site has slight to moderate slopes from 1%-5% and drains toward the north and east through Outlot A, Dix Amended Plat. 3. Prior to dirt work operations, the site vegetation consists primarily of native and non-native grasses. The total disturbed area will be approximately 2.75 acres. These grasses naturally grow in clumps, which inevitably leads to some bare areas. In general, the site has approximately 60% vegetative cover. 4. With the geotechnical exploration report groundwater levels were not encountered in the test borings. Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision will consist of a Church building and post frame building addition. 5. There is no known on-site ground contamination. Page 3 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado C. Proposed Construction Activities 1. Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision has a total project area of approximately 3.09 acres. The project will consist of constructing a Church building and post frame building addition that meets the requirements of the City of Fort Collins Land Use Code. 2. There are no wetlands or streams on-site. II. POTENTIAL POLLUTANT SOURCES 1. The following potential sources of pollution have been evaluated: a. Disturbed and stored soils-Yes-Approximately 2.75 acres or 75% of the 3.00-acre site will be disturbed with Construction Activities. Once soils have been disturbed, they do not retain the same compaction as in their native state, therefore surface runoff can cause more soil erosion than was historically observed. Disturbed and stored soils will be prevented from leaving the site using wattles and rock sock protection. Surface roughening shall be completed at disturbed soil areas, to help minimize wind and water erosion. If soil manages to migrate from the disturbed areas onto the street it will be swept or scraped to prevent the migration of sediment. Stockpiles in the same respect do not retain the same compaction and are more susceptible to soil erosion. Stockpiles on this site shall be placed in or near the center of the site and away from any drainage swales to not require perimeter run off controls. The stockpile will be kept loose, not compacted, and watered as needed to prevent dust issues. The stockpile will be monitored for signs of erosion displacement and sediment accumulation and if conditions warrant it, the stockpile will be structurally covered or if it is going to sit a long while will be temporarily reseeded. The installations and site management control noted above will help to prevent disturbed and stored soils from leaving the site and reduce the amount of erosion materials reaching undisturbed areas. b. Vehicle Tracking of Sediment-Yes-Vehicle tracking control of sediments will occur at the west entrance of the site at the proposed drive isle. Vehicle tracking control will reduce the materials reaching the existing road. Frequent scraping and sweeping maintenance and removal of materials at this location will be required. All contractors have signed contracts that will have them clean the streets if they are found to be tracking dirt onto the street. c. Management of Contaminated Soil-No-There is no known contamination on the site. If encountered, the contractor will have the Page 4 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado material stored in a covered area as to not mix with the stormwater until the material can be identified and proper classification and disposal methods can be determined in accordance with the various waste laws and with good construction safety and practices. d. Loading and Unloading Operations-Yes- Construction loading and unloading operations will occur and shall be completed in such a way that does not contribute pollutants to runoff. There will be loading and unloading for foundation and utility work, dirt work and landscaping. Access to the site will be limited to one location at the west side of the site. The contractor will be responsible for the proper handling and management of pollution sources during loading and unloading. When loading and unloading is occurring, depending on the materials, there may be an increased problem of containers being dropped, punctured, or broken. These off-loading activities will be done away from swales and will have nearby spill kits accessible. Spills on site will be addressed using spill prevention and response procedures. e. Outdoor storage activities-Yes- It is anticipated that inert material like wood, shingles, tiles, siding insulation and stone will be stored on site and outside in the elements. It is also anticipated that materials that do not weather well (cement, mortar, etc.) will also be located outside. Chemicals are not anticipated to be left outside. As the inert materials have a lower potential to leave the site, they will be monitored during inspection to make sure they are not being impacted by the exposure to the elements. The materials that will need added attention are the cements and mortars as they quickly mix with water and cause pollution issues. These materials when not stored inside will be placed on pallets to get above potential surface runoff and covered with tarps or plastic to prevent mixing with stormwater. Very small quantities of chemical are needed to contaminate stormwater so the fertilizers, paints, form oils, petroleum products, and other typical chemicals, will be stored in the construction connex box, trailers, vehicles, or the like out of contact with precipitation. If not stored in a location as described, secondary containment will be required. f. Bulk storage of Materials-No-Based on the size of this project bulk storage will be unlikely. Page 5 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado g. Vehicle and equipment maintenance and fueling-Yes- As fueling and equipment maintenance usually result in small spills of petroleum products it is important to monitor these activities carefully. In those cases where the vehicle is not able to be maintained off site, these activities will be done in the least detrimental way possible. The maintenance and fueling will be located as far from stormwater features as possible and at least 50 feet from a stormwater feature. The fueling activity will have spill materials nearby and a bucket or other container and shovel located nearby to hang a hose after filling to catch drips, and to scoop up any dirt that inadvertently mixed with the soil. That container will have a lid and be disposed of when the activity is completed. The maintenance work will be done on a tarp or other material to prevent the residual oils and greases from mixing with the dirt. h. Dust or Particulate Generating Processes – Yes – This project will result in earth moving activities, street sweeping, and track-out and carry out and saw cutting. The project will follow all required “BMPs” articulated in the Fugitive Dust Manual and at least one additional BMP included during each of the identified activities in accordance with City Ordinance No. 044,2016. Such activities will include but not limited to watering the site, covering trucks, slower site speeds and vehicle tracking mentioned above. i. Routine Maintenance Activities (Fertilizer, Pesticides, Detergents, Fuels, Solvents, Oils, etc.) – Yes – Fertilizers and Pesticides will be used during the later phases of the project when trying to establish a healthy vegetation. These chemicals are highly water soluble and are easily and unnoticeably carried in the stormwater. Proper application rates and recommended timing of application will be strictly followed and not on days, or the next day, where the weather is calling for precipitation. As most of these types of chemicals will be brought on by the Landscaper, they will be required to keep these products in their vehicles until time of application and not be allowed to leave these materials on the site. If these materials are stored on site, they shall be kept inside or outside covered and above the ground to prevent the materials from mixing with water and runoff. Detergents, paints, acids, cement, grout, and solvents will be prevalent in the interior work of the building. These materials also are typically easily mixed with water yet are typically noticeable by discolored, cloudy, or sudsy water. As such, the contractor will always keep an eye out for these types of differences in water around the site. However, these materials are to be handled, operated, and cleaned up all within the inside of the structure, where external use is concerned these materials will be stored in the construction connex box, trailers, vehicles, or the like out of contact with precipitation. Page 6 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado If not stored in a location as described secondary containment will be required. Fuels and oils might be associated with the smaller equipment used on site, chainsaws, pumps, generators, etc. As petroleum products are easily suspended in water and are spread across the top of the water surface. These products when located in water have rainbow sheen on them. They are also monitored during construction. These products will be stored in the construction connex box, trailers, vehicles, or similar structure that will minimize contact with precipitation. If not stored in a location as described secondary containment will be required. Any untreated runoff from these activities can be detrimental to wildlife if not cleaned up. j. On-site waste management practices (Waste Piles, Liquid Wastes, Dumpsters, etc.) – Yes –All large and heavy weighted waste piles (concrete chunks, excavated pipes, etc.) will be kept in a neat grouped pile until the material is to be disposed of properly. These piles will only be stored a short duration 5-10 days and will be kept 50 feet from any drainage course or inlet. All dry wastes will be maintained through dumpsters and monthly hauler removal (hauler will be notified if dumpster becomes full and hauled off as needed). Where available by the hauling company the dumpster will be covered. If not practical or available by the haul company, an increased removal schedule will be followed and the “Max fill line” on the dumpster will be strictly followed. Corners of the dumpsters will be monitored for “Dumpster Juice” leaking into the soil in dry conditions and rain/melt off conditions looking for it mixing with the runoff. Dumpsters, like the waste piles, will be located at least 50 feet from any drainage course or inlet. Workers will be sent around at the end of the day to collect trash to prevent trash being left out overnight. No construction debris (including broken concrete) will be buried on site. k. Concrete Truck/Equipment washing – Yes – Concrete will be installed with this project. It is anticipated that it will be used with the Church building foundation and sidewalks. Pre mixed concrete trucks will be used in this process and will be delivered to the site and when pouring the foundation a pump truck will be used all of which will need to be maintained through the washing of their chutes and pump arms to prevent the concrete from hardening and ruining the equipment. This concrete wash water has a high alkaline content which is hazardous material to terrestrial and aquatic wildlife. A section of dirt near the entrance will be excavated and compacted around the sides formed to retain the concrete wash water on site (as an acceptable practice by the State) so long as the wash water is kept in the washout (concrete washout). There will be a rock pad for the truck to park on while washing as to prevent tracking from this washout (VTC). Page 7 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado The placement of this washout will be located at least 50 feet from any drainage course or inlet. Later in the project after foundation installations the use of a mobile washout facility will be used on site in a similar location and after the ground has been leveled (concrete washout – mobile). The contractor (including all masonry and concrete tradesmen) shall clean out equipment within the washout area so that the runoff is not allowed to leave the washout. The only exception would be for them to wash in the next day’s pour location. All concrete workers will be made aware of the where they are to wash. If there is a significant amount of spillage when the transfer from concrete truck to pump truck occurs, a tarp or other ground cloth should be used to collect spillage. l. Dedicated asphalt or concrete batch plant – No – there will be no dedicated asphalt or concrete batch plants erected onsite for this project. Premixed concrete materials will be delivered to the site and placed. m. Non-industrial waste sources (Worker Trash and Portable Toilets) — Yes – Since facilities are not located nearby for workers to use, trash and sanitary facilities will be required on the site. Worker trash will be comingled with the industrial trash and will follow the same controls with the requirement that a trashcan will be located near the entrance of the site as the contractor will need to dump their trash from lunch, etc. and this will be emptied weekly or more frequently, if needed. If tipped over and when being cleaned, portable toilet facilities become a potential discharge if not cleaned up. If human waste is spilled, it will need to be treated as a biological hazard of untreated sewage and will need to be cleaned up in accordance with Larimer County Health Department Guidance. The toilets will be staked in a way to prevent tipping on a dirt surface and located at least 50 feet from a drainage course or inlet. If the site cannot accommodate a portable toilet on dirt, a containment pan or other secondary containment will be provided. They will also be anchored prevent from tipping. All materials shall be properly disposed of in accordance with the law. n. Saw Cutting and Grinding -Yes- Saw cutting the asphalt in the City right-of-way and street will occur. This project will need the use of hardened saws. These saws generate a significant amount of dust. Watering the cutting surface to prevent airborne particulates (BMP in the City’s Fugitive Dust Manual) is required. The cutting slurry has a high content of fine particulates (Silica Dust, Metals, etc.) that is not allowed to discharge as runoff from the site. Page 8 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado To prevent slurry from discharging offsite, contractors will use the minimum amount of water needed to prevent dust and blades from overheating. Cutting slurry will be collected via vacuum or allowed to dry out and be scraped and swept up after the cutting has finished (saw cutting). o. Ground Water Dewatering – No – Based upon the geotechnical data, ground water was not encountered 5'-15' below existing grade. However, if encountered, dewatering activities may be required. Groundwater has in most excavations mixed with the dirt and as they are pumped, they will add an increased velocity coming out of the out- flow end contributing to erosion and speeding the transport of the suspended sediment particles. Also, construction dewatering activities must be identified in the Erosion Control Report if they are to be infiltrated on site. If the material is anticipated to be pumped to a stormwater conveyance the proper Construction Dewatering Permit must be pulled from the State of Colorado. If pumping activities are to occur on the site, the use of rock packs on the intake end of the pump will be used and a silt bag will be used on the outflow end of the pump to reduce the silt and sediment from leaving the activity. If this will be under a Dewatering Permit water samples will be collected in accordance with that permit. III. INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL SEQUENCE OF CONTROL MEASURES 1. The following temporary BMP’s measures are specified on the Sediment/Erosion Control and Water Quality Plan (Interim). Refer to sequence schedule on this plan for the installation and removal of these control measures. a. Wattles (Site Mobilization – Completion of Landscaping) Wattle installations shall be installed to reduce erosion prior to runoff reaching adjacent undisturbed areas. Wattles shall be installed in general compliance with the installation detail on the Detail Sheet. Wattles shall be inspected and maintained on biweekly basis and within twenty-four (24) hours of a storm event. Wattles shall remain in place until contributing drainage areas are sufficiently stabilized. Page 9 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado b. Vehicle Tracking Pad (Site Mobilization – Completion of Flat work) All vehicle tracking control pads shall be installed prior to any Construction Activity (stockpiling, stripping, grading, etc.) being used during any of the future construction phases. Vehicle tracking control pads are to be installed prior to site excavation or earthwork activities. Tracking pads shall be removed once activities that require going from dirt to hardscape stop on the project. Vehicle tracking control pads shall be installed in general compliance with the installation detail on the Detail Sheet. c. Concrete Washout Area (Concrete Foundation Installations – Completion of Concrete Foundations and Flat work) Washout location is shown on the Sediment/Erosion Control and Water Quality Plan (Interim) and the installation detail is shown on the Detail Sheet. This location is a suggestion and can be relocated at the discretion of the Contractor while keeping it away from drainage courses. d. Rock Sock Protection (Site Mobilization – Completion of Landscaping) Rock Sock Protection installations shall be installed to reduce sediment contribution to adjacent undisturbed areas. Curb Sock installation detail is shown on the Detail Sheet. IV. FINAL VEGETATION AND STABILIZATION AND EROSION CONTROL ESCROW 1. Exposed dirt in areas that contain Hardscapes, Buildings, and Rock bed will be considered to be stabilized immediately upon installation and would prevent future Erosion to those areas. Those areas where sod will be installed as per design, will require soil amending in accordance with §12-132 and irrigated as a permanent feature to the project. Upon installation of those sod areas they will be considered stabilized and will prevent further Erosion to those areas. Those areas would then be under warranty. All areas to be seeded as outlined in the Landscape Plan, or required by the City in the disturbance of other properties, will have the area amended in accordance with §12-132 of City Municipal Code and be seeded based upon the specifications called out in the Landscape Plan. A copy of the Landscape Plan is attached to the report. All seeded areas will be crimped and mulched same day or next day after seeding in accordance with the Temporary and Permanent Seeding Details associated with this project as seen in the appendix, and in accordance with the City of Fort Collins Erosion Control Criteria. Once installed there will be no temporary irrigation system so all seeding will be monitored until the site has reached a vegetative cover (density) of 70%. It is anticipated that this site will be seeded in the spring of 2021 and will be fully established in the fall of 2021. Page 10 Erosion Control Report Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision; Fort Collins, Colorado At the point the vegetation has reached 70% density, and confirmed by the City of Fort Collins, the warranty period for Erosion Control will begin, all stormwater infrastructure will be clean and removed of any sediment deposits and any remaining temporary Control Measures will be removed. 2. An erosion control security deposit is required in accordance with City of Fort Collins policy. In no instance shall the amount of the security be less than $3,000.00 for commercial development. See the Erosion Control Security Deposit Requirements document located in Appendix I. The erosion control security deposit is equal to $9,026.25. V. CONCLUSIONS A. Compliance with Standards 1. The erosion control measures for Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision will comply with the requirements of the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual adopted December 2018 with Ordinance 159, 2018.
