Regarding: Type 2 Site Plan Review
Sanipac, Inc.
1650 Glenwood Boulevard
Eugene, Oregon
PBS Project 17610.003
This narrative accompanies the Type 2 Site Plan application for Sanipac, Inc. (Sanipac or applicant), who is seeking
approval for a stormwater treatment improvement. The application package was submitted to the City of
Springfield (City) in the state of Oregon in accordance with the provisions of the applicable approval criteria in
SDC 5.17.125.
PROJECT SUMMARY
Site Information
The site address is 1650 Glenwood Boulevard in Eugene, Oregon. Glenwood Boulevard frames the eastern side of
the site, E 17th Avenue borders the southern side of the site, and other industrial or office mixed-use properties
abut the western and northern sides of the site. Map & Taxlot Number; 1703343300800, Taxlot Number: 800.
The Willamette River is approximately 850 feet to the north and northwest of the property across State Route
126/Franklin Boulevard.
The existing zoning is Light-Medium Industrial.
History
Sanipac operates a solid waste collection business on the site with truck fleet parking, vehicle and equipment
maintenance, equipment storage, and an office building. Sanipac is covered by a National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) 1200-Z Industrial Stormwater Discharge General Permit (1200-Z Permit) issued by the
Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). One element of the 1200-Z Permit requires the monitoring
of stormwater discharges from the facility for pollutants. Corrective actions may be necessary if the pollutant
concentrations exceed the applicable benchmark concentrations listed in the 1200-Z Permit.
Stormwater discharges from the Sanipac facility did exceed the Willamette Valley benchmarks for total copper and
total zinc and triggered the Tier 2 corrective action requirements under the 1200-Z Permit in 2022. Accordingly,
Sanipac must implement additional stormwater treatment measures with the goal of meeting benchmarks in
future stormwater discharges. Sanipac retained PBS Engineering and Environmental LLC (PBS) to evaluate options
and design the improvements. A conceptual engineering design report was presented to and approved by DEQ.

Type 2 Site Plan Review
April 5, 2024
Page 2 of 3
Sanipac proposed to install a media bed filtration system to remove copper and zinc from stormwater. A
StormwateRx Aquip system was selected and will be provided by Newterra.
The project includes an aboveground media bed filter container and an aboveground, open top, flat bottom, steel
tank for storage and settling. Other ancillary improvements will include new underground and aboveground
stormwater conveyance piping, vaults and pumps for transferring stormwater to aboveground equipment, a
stormwater sampling manhole, and electrical utilities to power the pumps. A plan set detailing stormwater
improvements is included in this application.
The stormwater treatment project footprint is estimated at 8,500 square feet of the 6.58-acre parcel; however, the
proposed updates to the stormwater treatment are located closer than 100 feet to a tributary to a Water Quality
Limited Watercourse. This proximity has elevated the review status from a Type 1 Site Plan Review to a Type 2 Site
Plan Review. The applicant is submitting the Type 2 Site Plan to the City for review.
Proposed Work
As required by the City, the applicant is submitting a Type 2 Site Plan to review the required stormwater treatment
improvements. The City’s code requires the applicant to submit certain plans for the Type 2 review. Since the
stormwater treatment work is primarily underground, central to the site, and away from setbacks, parking,
pedestrian access, or other aspects of the existing and functioning site, many of these plans are not applicable to
this minor stormwater project, which is not meaningfully altering the existing use and function of the property.
The site would be most accurately summarized as an existing conditions plan. The primary goal of this submittal is
not to portray site plan improvements, but to show the required stormwater treatment updates which will only
minimally affect the site plan. The application includes the Type 2 Site Plan checklist from the City code with
explanations. The following is an abbreviated outline. For more detail, please review the checklist included with
this submittal.
SDC 5.17.115 SUBMITTAL STANDARDS
B. Existing Site Conditions Plan
Response: Not included in this submittal, as the proposed work is a facility update to an existing site.
C. Proposed Site Plan
Response: The proposed work upgrades a portion of the existing system. The limited proposed stormwater
changes are shown on the plans included with this submittal.
D. Utility and Improvement Plan
Response: Does not apply. Streets, sidewalks, and utility dedications will not change with this upgrade to the
treatment system.
E. Landscape Plan
Response: Does not apply. Due to the limited work area location, there is no change to existing landscaping
or perimeter buffering.
F. Access, Circulation, Parking, and Lighting Plan
Response: Does not apply. Due to the limited work area location, there is no change to existing access, traffic
circulation, parking, and lighting.

G. Grading, Paving, and Stormwater Management Plan
Response: Plans are included for the localized stormwater improvements. No grading is proposed. The only
earthwork will involve the installation of linear utilities.
H. Phased Development Plan

I. Narrative
Response: The narrative is the present document, which describes project conformance to the applicable
approval criteria in SDC 5.17.125.
