Dave:
As we discussed with Matt, the f~lIowing are the issues that PW has.with this application:
1, Due to the high water table, it does not appear that the proposed infiltration beds will meet the'
requirements of the City of Springfield Engine,ering Design Standards and Procedures Manua/
(EDSPM), The EDSPM requires a minimum of two (2) feet of native soils separating the bottom of
the infiltration bed from the seasonal high water table" .,:
2, If the proposed.gravel surfaces will be required to be paved; the.infiltratioh beds would need to be'.
" redesigned to accommodate the proposed paving section. This redesign would also be affected by
the high water table, and maintenance of the paved infiltration beds would be a concern,
3: In accordance with the City of Springfield EDSPM, all underground injection control (UIC) shall be
provided with an overflow pipe, r ,,'. .'
. 4. The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will be required to issue a permit for the infiltration.
beds, The applicant must submit the appropriate permit application to the DEQ if UIC is proposed,
5 '. All infiltration beds must be horizonially located a.minimum often (10) feet from the property lines,
.6,.. A portion of the slopes of the bio-swale'maybe located in the Public Utility Easement (PUE), but the
bottom of 1he bio~swaie must not be located in the PUE, As:currently shown, part of the bio-swale
adjacent to the west. property line must: be relocated to keep'the bottom out of the PUE:
7, . No private facilities are allowed to be located within the PUE. One of the catch basins is shown to lie
at least partially within the front PUE, ': , .
8, The existing public stormwater system to which the applica~t propqses to connect has limited
capacity. The applicant will be required to provide detailed hydraulic analysis to verify the pre- and
,,' post-development stormwater flows' to the existing system and to address the need for stormwater
"detention,,' . ., I " .' . '
. '9, . The proposed extension of the public'sanitary sewer will not be allowed. to lie within the pavement of'
.Olympic Street, as shown, ,No pavement or curb and gutter'shall be allowed to be removed, This .'
'. requirementalso applies to the proposed water line crossing Olympic Street." . ",
10. The recycle/trash areas shall be plumbed to thesani1ary sewer system. " . .' " "
11, SUB water hasrequested.that the proposed water line extension be' relocated to lie within the right- ' "
, of-way of Olympic Street, rather than on private property, as;shown, . '."
12,. SUB electric has requested an easement which appears to yonflict with the'location of the proposed ',: '.
private stor'TI, ~ewer located between Building A and_ BLiildin~ B.' ' . . ., .'
. "- -. -,' ," . '- .." . .
" ", . . " ." - .,.' .
It appears that several of these are major issues that will affect the site plan in numerous ways, There may also
be other items that will need to be addressed after the applicant has adjusted the current plan to accommodate'
the above issues.' . .' . -, , . '. .,
