Box 580 / 700 Wood Street Fort Collins, CO 80522 RE: O.D.'s Sports Crossing, Detention Pond Drainage Certification ale"mwy s` . Our files contain a partial drainage certification forwarded to your office on September 30, 1996. In this letter, site drainage improvements were certified; excluding the temporary detention pond as noted under Item #5 of the letter. A copy of this letter is attached. Though the attached letter indicates a subsequent letter would follow certifying the pond, neither the City's files nor our files contain a copy of a second certification letter. Therefore, we are submitting this letter certifying the "as -constructed" condition of the pond' and its associated outlet works: The temporary detention pond facility lies northeast of the O.D. Sports Facility. The pond was constructed in the summer of 1996. A topographic survey was performed on April 7, 1999. Based on this survey, the "as -constructed" volume with one -foot (l') of freeboard has been determined to exceed the minimum design volume of 0.70 ac-ft. In addition, the outlet pipe is 15" HDPE and contains an orifice plate at its upstream end with a 5-3/4 inch diameter opening. The pipe and orifice plate sizes are per the requirements of the final Drainage Report and construction drawings. Therefore, the pond and its associated outlet works have been constructed in conformance with the design requirements. The results of this survey are summarized in the following table: NEW YORK • PENNSYLVANIA COLORADO•UTAH•WYOMING STANDARDS IN EXCELLENCE EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER Parameter Units Design "As-Built"- O.D.
