7.5 Construction Materials & Equipment
The contractor shall store construction materials and equipment on site in such a
manner that the materials and equipment will not impact Mail Creek Ditch. The
Contractor shall also provide an area for maintenance and fueling of equipment in
a confined area on site from which runoff will be contained and filtered prior to
entering the ditch. Contaminated soils from fuel spills shall follow state and local
criteria for removal.
8.0 CONCLUSIONS
8.1 Drainage Concept
The proposed drainage concepts presented in this study and shown on the drainage
plan adequately provide for the conveyance of developed runoff for detention and
water quality purposes from the proposed development and adjacent off -site
basins. Water quality will be provided via bio-swales, grass turf swales and the
detention pond in the southeast comer of the Site. This ensures that the proposed
development will have limited negative impact to downstream conveyance
facilities under the designed storms.

landscape swales, and storm sewer systems during and after grading and
construction. Thus, sediment not detained by the inlet protection filters (gravel
filters and straw bale barriers) will be conveyed to the detention pond, which will
also act a sediment trap during construction.
7.2 Existing Site Conditions
In general, the Site slopes at one percent to the south and east towards Fossil
Creek and Fossil Creek Reservoir. The Site's present use is agricultural with hay
as the main crop. The Mail Creek Irrigation Ditch traverses along the eastern
property line of the parcel.
7.3 Soils
The subsurface soils at the Site consist of an approximate 6-inch layer of
cultivated silty topsoil, underlain by sandy lean clay, lean clay with sand, clayey
sand and silty sand extending to the depths explored to the bedrock below.
Reference the geotechnical report for more detailed information (Ref. 6).
7.4 Schedule
Silt fencing will be installed first followed by clearing and grubbing and overlot
grading for the Site. Next will be the placement of the vehicle tracking control at
the construction entrance. The proposed utility and building construction will
occur next. Inlet protection will be installed during the construction phase of the
landscape storm sewer. Prior to the final grading and landscaping, erosion control
matting will be installed at curb cuts and storm sewer outlet locations. Paving and
landscaping will follow subsequently. After permanent vegetation is stabilized,
the inlet protection as well as the silt fence will be removed.
The estimated start of construction for the site has been set for May, 2002 and
completion to be one year later. The school is scheduled to open in the Fall of
2003.

6.0 STORM SEWER SYSTEMS
6.1 General Concept
There are two storm sewer systems, one running across the north side of the
school and the other along the southern border of the Site. The system to the north,
System 200, captures flows from design points 400, 401, and 200-204. The main
reach of pipe will be 30" HDPE ADS N-12 running at 0.50%. This pipe has no
"wet" utility crossings. The system outfalls into the detention pond located in the
southeast comer of the Site.
The system to the south is designated as System 300. This system begins with a
connection to the existing 18" RCP under Timberline Road. The runoff collected
at design points 402, and 300-303 are conveyed by HDPE ADS N-12 pipe east to
the detention facility. At the entrance to the visitor parking lot RCP will be
installed to protect the integrity of the system.
Roof drainage is collected within the school and routed to the connection points
designated by DP 100 and 101. HDPE ADS N-12 pipe will route the flows south
to a manhole intersecting System 300
7.0 EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
7.1 General Concept
Erosion control during construction of this project will consist of silt fencing
installed around the Site's disturbed areas that will be graded and have the
potential for sediment to be transported off the Site. The Grading and Erosion
Control Plan in the construction drawings (see back pocket) indicates the type and
timing of proposed measures. Once the foundation is in place and floor slabs
constructed, the potential for erosion will be minimized. Generally, developed
storm flows will travel to the detention/water quality pond via curb and gutter,

5.3 Detention/Water Quality Pond Design
The water quality pond for the 11.43-acre Site uses the affected developed areas of
12.13 acres. The area to the north (5.05 ac) is not being developed at this time.
The water quality pond was designed using Urban Storm Drainage Criteria
Manual Volume 3 — Best Management Practices (BMPs) "Design Procedure
Form: Extended Detention Basin (EDB)", (See Appendix D). The required 100-yr
detention volume was calculated using the FAA method. Utilizing the Urban
Drainage software, Hydropond, a volume of 0.761 ac-ft is needed.
The water quality capture volume (WQCV) is based on the tributary area draining
to the pond as well as the percentage of the total area that is impervious. The Site
has an imperviousness ratio of 49%. This includes all impervious areas such as
pavement, sidewalk, and rooftop compared to the landscaped areas. A WQCV of
0.247 ac-ft will be required, based on calculations obtained from the Urban
Drainage manual. The total volume required is 1.008 ac-ft, the actual volume for
the proposed detention pond is 2.750 ac-ft. These calculations can be found in
Appendix D.
Detention requirements for developing the school site have been modified based
in the drainage criteria presented in the Final Drainage Reports for the Timbers
and Westchase PUDs. Based on these reports, a release rate of 25.1 cfs was
determined for the school site and the remaining undeveloped parcel (off -site
basin 401) to the north. Runoff from the east half of the full width of Timberline
Road and north half of the proposed Timber Trail Road will also be conveyed to
the detention pond and to be released at the above rate.

points collect the stormwater. Basin 203 (0.65 ac) and 204 (1.03 ac) slope to the
north across playing fields at mild slopes around 2%. Low points within the basin
collect the runoff in area inlets. The inlet at design point 203 will have a stub out
,■
allowing for future development to tie into this system from the north. Basin 205
(1.22 ac) is comprised of a playing field and the detention pond.
Runoff from Basin 300 (0.61 ac) encompasses the southern parking lot that will
be used for visitor parking and parent drop-off. Stormwater will traverse the site
over pavement to curb and gutter routing the water to a 5' Type `R' inlet. Basins
301 (1.63 ac) and 303 (0.64 ac) attenuate runoff to an inlet at design point 301.
The from Basin 302 flows to the
runoff (1.18 ac) sheet south across the
playground area, which consists of sand, wood chips, and grass. This runoff is
collected in an area inlet at DP 302. Flows collected at DP301 enter this inlet from
3.
the south. These flows are then routed to the east to the pond. Basin 304 (0.38 ac)
attenuates the half -street runoff from Timber Trail Road at an existing 5' Type `R'
inlet. The inlet is adequately sized for the change in basin boundary created by
r;
development of the Site.
The off -site basins are designated as the 400-series. Basin 400 (1.66 ac)
encompasses the half street flows from Timberline Road and routes runoff to a
10' Type `R' inlet, which will outfall to DP 400. Basin 401 (5.05 ac +/-) is the
undeveloped area bordering the Site to the north. Basin 402 has limited
information regarding drainage. An existing 18" CMP crosses under Timberline
Road. For design purposes it is assumed the pipe is flowing at full capacity
calculated using the Manning's equation.

5.0 DEVELOPED DRAINAGE CONDITIONS
5.1 General Concept
In general, developed flows from the proposed site improvements will sheet flow
or be conveyed via two storm pipe systems in an easterly direction to the proposed
on -site detention/water quality pond. Developed flows along the Site's west side
and along the future improvements of Timberline Road will flow north via curb
and gutter to a proposed inlet at the street's low point.
In an effort to achieve environmental sustainability, bio-swale systems are being
considered in some locations within the site. These swales are not designed for
particular storm levels but rather for areas of opportunity to capture concentrated
oil, salt, sand and other pollutants left by automobiles. In, addition, a porous
pavement alternative (GravelPave) for the faculty parking lot will be a
construction bid alternate to the typical asphalt pavement.
5.2 Basin Descriptions
Basin 100 is the rooftop of the school (1.17 ac). Stormwater that collects on the
school rooftop will sheet flow to drains located toward the center of the roof. The
mechanical engineer has designed the roof drains and piping. This water will be
piped to the center of the building and'route flows to the south of the building.
Storm pipes will pickup these flows and continue to route the stormwater to the
detention pond.
Basin 200 (1.47 ac) incorporates the west entrance drive, faculty parking and bus
drop-off. The developed runoff from Basin 200 flow overland through landscaped
areas before entering paved areas where the water will sheet flow within the
proposed curb and gutter systems to a 10' Type `R' inlet. Basin 201 (0.09 ac) and
202 (0.38 ac) border the building to the north. Area inlets located within local low

Proposed Timber Trail Road that will border the Site to the south has been
designed TST Consultants as part of the construction plans for the Timbers PUD
and meets the street cross section equivalent to City of Fort Collins' 2-lane minor
collector street (76-ft R-O-W). There will be a 30-foot wide entrance to the Site
on Timber Trail Road to provide for parent drop-off and visitor parking.
3.0 METHODOLOGY
3.1 Compliance with Standards
The following Preliminary Drainage & Erosion Control Study was prepared in
accordance with the design requirements and procedures set forth in the City of
Fort Collins (City) Storm Drainage Criteria and Construction Standards (Criteria
— Ref. 1) and Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual (Manual — Ref. 2) by the
Urban Drainage and Flood Control District.
3.2 Analytical Methods
The Rational Method was used to calculate 10 and 100-year developed flows. The
Rational Method is widely accepted for design problems involving small drainage
areas (<160 acres) and short times of concentration. Mathematically, it relates
peak discharge to the runoff coefficient, rainfall intensity, and drainage area.
Runoff coefficients and rainfall intensity data were obtained from the. Criteria.
4.0 HISTORIC DRAINAGE BASINS
4.1 Major Basin Description
The Site lies within the Fossil Creek Reservoir Drainage Basin watershed. A
master drainage study does not exist for this portion of the basin. However,
topography shows that this site drains to Fossil Creek Reservoir. Per this report,
the historic land use is agricultural and proposed land use as low density mixed
use (LDMU).

approximate depths of 8- to 15-feet below existing site grades. The geotechnical
engineering report prepared by Terracon (11/09/01) indicates that on -site subsoil
conditions are suitable for the proposed construction.
1.3 Proposed Project Description
The proposed development will be annexed and zoned for school use. The Fort
Collins 2003 Elementary School will be modeled similar to the 2002 Prototype
building. This school will provide educational resources for approximately 600
The building has 1.17 The landscape
students. school a roof area of acres. areas on
the west side of the school (along Timberline Road) will have berms varying in
height from 2- to 4 feet. The area to the south of the school building will be the
playground area. The playground areas will incorporate basketball courts (2),
other hard surface playing areas such as foursquare and tetherball, a mulched area
for swings and playground equipment and small sandbox play areas (refer to
landscape plans). To the east of the school building and playground area will be
multi -use playing fields (soccer and baseball) and a site detention facility.
Timberline Road (County Road 11) is currently a 24-foot wide paved street used
for local access with an existing eastern right-of-way of 40 feet. The east side
Timberline Road will be widened and upgraded by the developers of Westchase
and The Timbers PUD to meet the street cross section equivalent to City of Fort
Collins' 4-lane arterial road. David Evans and Associates (DEA), Civil Engineers
for the Westchase PUD, have designed the Timberline Road improvements that
will be built at the same time as the school. Nolte has coordinated curb return
information with DEA that relate to the Timberline Road construction plans. The

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Site Location
The proposed 2003 Elementary School site (Site) is located along Timberline
Road north of the Westchase PUD and borders along the north boundary of the
proposed the "Timbers PUD". The school parcel is also bounded by the Mail
Creek Ditch to the east and vacant farmland to the north. More particularly, the
Site (11.434 acres) is a parcel of land designated as Tract "A" of the Minor Land
Division — Poudre School District And Paragon Point Partners, LTD which lies
within the South Half of the Northwest Quarter of Section 8, Township 6 North,
Range 68 West of the 6th Principal Meridian, County of Larimer, State of
Colorado (see Vicinity Map, page 3).
1.2 Existing Site Description
In general, the Site slopes at one percent to the south and east towards Fossil
Creek and Fossil Creek Reservoir. The Site's present use is agricultural with hay
as the main crop. The Mail Creek Irrigation Ditch traverses along the eastern
property line of the parcel.
Presently, the areas surrounding the proposed school site consist of farm and hay
fields. However, proposed land development to the south for multi -family
residences (Timbers P.U.D.) are in the final design and municipal approval
process. Westchase PUD, a 408 lot single-family subdivision located south of the
school site and the Timbers site, is currently under construction with the
installation of utilities and roads.
The existing soil conditions on the Site consist of an approximate 6-inch layer of
cultivated silty topsoil, underlain by lean clay with sand, lean clay, and sandy lean
clay extending to the depths explored to the bedrock below (Ref. 6). Groundwater
was encountered and noted in the Site's soil boring logs to range between
