The Major Streets and Routes Map indicates a future ROW width of 90 feet. It appears that the existing ROW width is the same as the future. It is not clear why a future ½ ROW is shown as 55 feet. Please explain. The future curb location must be added to DP-3. Revise future sight visibility triangles as required. MS&R plan DS 2-05.2.4.F DS 2-05.2.4.I DS 2-05.2.4.Q 17. Remove all reference to the 50 foot setback (per comment above). Add a general note that states all perimeter yard setbacks are zero. Dimension all setbacks from each lot line to the proposed building. Add the front setback to the DP-3. It is the "greater of 21 feet or the height of the structure from back of future curb". Add a general note that includes the proposed height of the building and satellites so setbacks may be verified. DS 2-05.2.4.I LUC 3.2.6.4 and 3.2.6.5.B DS 2-05.2.4.N 18. Revise DP-3 to show a complete pedestrian circulation system as detailed in DS 2-08.

For common drainage locations that serve an area with 10 or more acres disturbed at one time, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin that provides storage for a calculated volume of runoff from a 2 year, 24 hour storm from each disturbed acre drained, must be provided where attainable until final stabilization of the site. Where no calculation has been performed, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin providing 3,600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained, shall be provided where attainable until final stabilization of the site. When computing the number of acres draining into a common location it is not necessary to include flows from offsite areas and flows from onsite areas that are either undisturbed or have undergone final stabilization where such flows are diverted around both the disturbed area and the sediment basin. In determining whether installing a sediment basin is attainable, the operator may consider factors such as site soils, slope, available area on site, etc. If "non-attainability" is claimed, then an explanation of that non-attainability shall be included in the SWPPP. In any event, the operator must consider public safety, especially as it relates to children, as a design factor for the sediment basin and alternative sediment controls must be used where site limitations preclude a safe design. b. For drainage locations that serve 10 or more disturbed acres at one time and where a sediment basin meeting the provision of Part IV D.5.a.1 is not attainable, smaller sediment basins and/or sediment traps shall be used. Where a sediment basin is not attainable, silt fences, vegetative buffer strips, or alternatives which achieve effective sediment control are required for all down slope boundaries of the construction area (and for those side slope boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual site conditions). c. For drainage locations serving less than 10 acres, smaller sediment basins and/or sediment traps shall be used. Silt fences, vegetative buffer strips, or equivalent sediment controls are required for all down slope boundaries (and for those side slope boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual site conditions) of the construction area unless a sediment basin providing storage for a calculated volume of runoff from a 2 year, 24 hour storm or 3,600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained is provided. 22. Place velocity dissipation devices at discharge locations and along the length of any outfall channel to provide a non-erosive flow velocity from the structure to a water course so that the natural physical and biological characteristics and functions are maintained and protected (e.g. no significant changes in the hydrological regime of the receiving water). (Part IV.D.5.b) Note: The velocity dissipation devices must be in place during the construction phases. Installation scheduling must be included and should be as early as practicable. 23. Describe post-construction storm water management measures that will be installed during the construction process to control pollutants in stormwater discharges after construction operations have been completed. Structural measures shall be placed on upland soils to the degree attainable. Such measures must be designed and installed consistent with applicable local or state stormwater management requirements. (Part IV.D.6) Non-Stormwater Discharges 24. Identify all allowable sources of non-stormwater discharges except for flows from fire fighting activities. Non-storm water discharges are to be eliminated or reduced to the extent feasible. (Part IV.D.7) Allowable sources of non-stormwater discharges are: (Part I.C.2) a. Discharges from fire-fighting activities; b. Fire hydrant flushing; c. Waters used to wash vehicles where detergents are not used; d. Water used to control dust, provided effluent or other wastewaters are not used; e. Potable water sources including water line flushing; f. Routine external building wash down where detergents are not used; g. Pavement wash waters where spills or leaks of toxic or hazardous materials have not occurred (unless all spilled material has been removed) and where detergents are not used; h. Uncontaminated air conditioning or compressor condensate; i. Uncontaminated ground water or spring water; j. Foundation or footing drains where flows are not contaminated with process materials such as solvents; k. Potable water well flushing where the receiving waters are ephemeral, l. Water used for compacting soil, provided effluent or other wastewaters are not used; m. Water used for drilling and coring such as for evaluation of foundation materials, where flows are not contaminated with additives; and n. Water obtained from dewatering operations/foundations in preparation for and during excavation and construction. 25. Describe appropriate BMPs to minimize pollutants in any non-stormwater discharges. Superchlorinated wastewaters must be held on-site until the chlorine dissipates, or otherwise dechlorinated prior to discharge, except if used in emergency firefighting,. (Part IV.D.7) 26. Describe measures to prevent the discharge of solid materials, including building materials and litter, to waters of the United States. (Part IV.D.8.a) 27. Describe measures to minimize off-site vehicle tracking of sediments. (Part IV.D.8.b) 28. Describe measures to minimize the generation of dust. (Part IV.D.8.b) 29. Describe construction and waste materials expected to be stored on-site. Provide a page or pages to record updates as appropriate. Describe controls to reduce pollutants from these materials including storage practices to minimize exposure of the materials to stormwater, and spill prevention and response practices. (Part IV.D.8.c) 30. Describe any pollutant sources from areas other than construction (including stormwater discharges from dedicated asphalt plants and dedicated concrete plants and any other non-construction pollutant sources), with details of controls and measures that will be implemented at those sites to minimize pollutant discharges. (Part IV.D.8.d) 31. Describe measures to sufficiently stabilize soil at culvert locations to prevent the formation of rills and gullies during construction. (Part IV.D.8.e) Permit Related Records 32. Include a copy of the general permit and the NOI that was or will be submitted to ADEQ. If other agreements with any state, local, or federal agencies exist that would affect the provisions or implementation of the SWPPP, include copies of those agreements. (Part IV.F) 33. The grading plan and landscape plan may be incorporated into the SWPPP by reference. The requirements of the plans must be treated by the operator as part of the SWPPP. (Part IV.G) Inspections 34. Add a note stating that the operator(s) shall report to ADEQ any noncompliance (including spills) which may endanger human health or the environment. The operator shall orally notify the office listed below within 24 hours: Arizona Department of Environmental Quality 1110 W. Washington, 5th floor (5515B-1) Phoenix, AZ 85007 Office: 602-771-4466; Fax 602-771-4505 35. Specify an inspection schedule in the SWPPP. (Part IV.H.1) Choose either of the following: a. The site will be inspected at least once every 7 calendar days, or b. The site will be inspected at least once every 14 calendar days, and also within 24 hours of the end of each storm event of 0.5 inches or greater. 36. When either of the following conditions apply, the operator is required to routinely inspect only once each month, and anytime rain is predicted, and within 24 hours of the end of each storm event of 0.5 inches or greater.: a. The site has been temporarily stabilized; b. Construction is occurring during the seasonal dry period; 37. Provide example forms for Compliance Evaluation Reports (Inspection Reports). At a minimum the forms must include: a. The inspection date. (Part IV.H.5.a) b. Name(s) and title(s) and qualifications of person(s) making the inspection. Qualifications must either be on/attached to the report or alternatively, if the SWPPP documents the qualifications of the inspectors by name, that portion of the SWPPP may be referenced. (Part IV.H.5.b) c. Weather information for the period since the last inspection (or since commencement of construction activity if the first inspection), including best estimate of the beginning of each storm event, duration of each event, time elapsed since last storm event, and approximate amount of rainfall for each event (in inches) . (Part IV.H.5.c) d. Location(s) of discharges of sediment or other pollutants from the site. (Part IV.H.5.d) e. Location(s) and identification of BMPs that need to be maintained; failed to operate as designed or prove inadequate. (Part IV.H.5.e) f. Location(s) where additional BMPs that do not exist at the time of inspection are needed. ((Part IV.H.5.f) g. Corrective actions required, including any changes to SWPPP necessary and implementation dates. (Part IV.H.5.g) h. Identification of all sources of non-storm water and the associated pollution prevention control measures. (Part IV.H.5.h) i.
