TO: Patricia Gehlen FROM: Laith Alshami, P.E.
CDRC Engineering

SUBJECT: Old Vail Rd Industrial Center
D08-0003, T15S, R15E, SECTION 21

RECEIVED: Development Plan and Drainage Report on January 24, 2008

The subject submittal has been reviewed and it can not be approved at this time. Address the following comments before review can continue. Prepare a detailed response that explains the revisions that were made and references the exact location in the Drainage Report and on the Development Plan where the revisions were made:

Drainage Report:

1. According to Rita Ranch Master Drainage Report and the Drainage Report for Rita Ranch #28 (a nearby project), the subject is impacted by offsite drainage. The 100-year offsite runoff that impacts the site appears to be at least 300-cfs and it enters the site at the southern end of the parcel (near the railroad tracks). The project is required to accommodate this runoff by installing a drainage channel that conveys the runoff and become part of a channel that shall be built by every development in that area, to convey their runoffs to the existing regional detention basin. Revise the drainage report and quantify the amount of offsite runoff and demonstrate how this project will accommodate it.
2. The detention basin requirement can be waived for this development because all developments between Old Vail Road and the railroad tracks, west of Rita Road shall use the existing regional detention basin. Runoff retention is still required for this project.
3. Section A-A v-ditch is proposed to be earthen, but the Development plan appears to show it as protected with either grouted riprap or gunite. Clarify the discrepancy and provide the proposed thickness of the grout.
4. The report does not address erosion control requirements for this project. Address.
5. Address water harvesting requirements in the report and demonstrate how roof and site drainage will be directed to maximize water harvesting.
6. Provide a geotechnical report that addresses the retention basin percolation rate. If the percolation rate is not adequate to empty the retention basin within 12 hours, other methods shall be used to drain out the basin (i.e. bleed pipes, etc.).
7. The drainage report does not address roof drainage and sidewalk scuppers. According to D.S. 2-05.2.4.H.3. and D.S. 3-01.4.4.F. 10-year flow has to be completely conveyed under sidewalks when concentrated runoff crosses any sidewalk/walkway. Additionally, show the roof drainage direction on the drainage exhibit and provide sidewalk scuppers for the roof drains. Please be advised that the 10-year flow requirement does not apply to roof drainage. Roof drainage has to be discharged in its entirety to avoid prolonged ponding on the roof that might cause the roof to collapse. Demonstrate compliance with the sidewalk scupper requirement including design calculations. Show roof drainage on Figure 4.
8. According to Section 14.3 of the "Standard Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management In Tucson, Arizona", the proposed retention basins require maintenance access ramps that shall be wide enough to accommodate vehicular access. The minimum width should be 15' and the ramp slope should not exceed 15 percent. Please be advised that maintenance ramps should be designed in such a way that does not allow access to vehicles except maintenance vehicles. Verify that the maintenance ramps will not reduce the required size of the basins.
9. According to Section 3.3.5 "Low-Flow Channels" of the Stormwater Detention/Retention Manual the proposed basins floors shall be sloped to provide positive drainage. The section recommends a minimum of 0.5% floor slope and 0.2% low flow concrete channel slope. Please be advised that based on the City's experience with similar projects, 0.5% slope was difficult to construct and maintain which resulted in nuisance ponding in the basins. Show the provided positive drainage on the drainage exhibit.
10. Determine and show on the drainage exhibits the proposed slope treatment and setback lines for the proposed detention/retention basins and channels based on the Soils Report recommendation.
11. In accordance with Chapter 4 of the Stormwater Detention/Retention Manual, the retention basins shall be designed to be natural looking, aesthetically pleasing and have multi-use. Verify compliance with these recommendations.
12. The channel and scupper analyses do not include relevant information such as velocity, location, material, how the runoff amounts were determined, etc. Provide the required information.
13. The Drainage Report does not address water harvesting and does not demonstrate how drainage will be directed to maximize water harvesting.
14. Show all 100-year flood limits for all runoffs of 100-cfs or more on the drainage exhibits. The buildings finished floor elevations shall be based on the regulatory runoff water surface elevation.

Development Plan:

1. Complete the D (yr)-______ subdivision case number as required by D.S. 2-05.2.2.B.2.
2. Are public roads proposed with this development? If not, revise General Note #13 accordingly.
3. Provide the Basis of Bearing tie to one of the subject parcel corners (D.S. 2-05.2.3.A.).
4. The "City Engineer" signature line should be revised to read "City of Tucson DSD
5. Verify that there are no existing easements on site. Provide a recent title report for review (D.S. 2-05.2.3.B.).
6. Provide the width of Old Vail Road as required by D.S. 2-05.2.3.C.
7. Provide the width of the existing sidewalk. If the sidewalk is less than 6' wide, it shall be removed and replaced with a 6' sidewalk (Old Vail Road is an MS & R Road) (D.S. 2-05.2.3.C.). Additionally, provide the existing curb cuts information and clarify if they will be closed off (D.S. 2-05.2.3.C.).
8. The contour line elevations are covered with proposed improvements information and are not readable. Clearly show the contour line elevations (D.S. 2-05.2.3.E.).
9. Are there existing storm drainage facilities adjacent to the site (D.S. 2-05.2.3.F.).
10. Show existing 100-year flood limits for all runoffs of 100-cfs or more as required by (D.S. 2-05.2.3.I.).
11. Call out the security gate (Keynote #3) if it is existing or proposed.
12. Show all proposed easements as required by (D.S. 2-05.2.4.G.).
13. Clarify how the drainage will be conveyed from paved areas to the proposed retention and water harvesting areas (D.S. 2-05.2.4.H.2).
14. Show all proposed drainage structures including sidewalk scuppers, retention basin access ramp, roof drains and roof drainage arrows, etc. as required by (D.S. 2-05.2.4.H.3).
15. Add a general note that addresses the drainage structures maintenance responsibility, the frequency of maintenance activities and who will be conducting the maintenance inspections. Please be advised that a registered civil engineer shall be responsible for the inspections and the preparation on the required maintenance report.
16. Draw locations and indicate types of offsite runoff acceptance points and/or onsite runoff discharge points (D.S. 2-05.2.4.H.7).
17. Provide all applicable building setback lines including erosion hazard setback, retention basin setbacks and sight visibility triangles (D.S. 2-05.2.4.I.).
18. Reference Standard Detail 207 (City of Tucson/Pima County Standard Details for Public Improvements) for all proposed wheelchair ramps.
19. Demonstrate how the site runoff including roof drainage will be directed towards water harvesting areas to maximize water harvesting.
20. The treatment of any proposed slopes shall be in accordance with the recommendations of the Geotechnical Report. Provide a copy of the Geotechnical Report and verify compliance with its recommendations.
21. Provide the proposed grouted thickness on Sheet 2/3 Details.
22. Show the water depth on Detail A/2. Additionally, it appears that the retention basin requires security barriers as required by Section 4.3 of the Stormwater Detention/Retention Manual.
23. According to D.S. 2-05.2.4.H.3. and D.S. 3-01.4.4.F. 10-year flow has to be completely conveyed under sidewalks when the runoff crosses any sidewalk/walkway. Additionally, show the roof drainage proposed sidewalk scuppers where applicable. Please be advised that the 10-year flow requirement does not apply to roof drainage. Roof drainage has to be discharged in its entirety to avoid prolonged ponding on the roof that might cause the roof to collapse. Show the roof drainage direction and revise the Development Plan accordingly.
24. According to Section 3.3.5 "Low-Flow Channels" of the Stormwater Detention/Retention Manual, the proposed basins floors should be sloped to provide positive drainage. The section recommends a minimum of 0.5% floor slope and 0.2% low flow concrete channel slope. Please be advised that based on the City's experience with similar projects, 0.5% slope was difficult to construct and maintain which resulted in nuisance ponding in the basins. Show the provided positive drainage on the drainage exhibit.
25. As per Federal ADA requirements, all wheel chair ramps shall have the Truncated Domes instead of the standard grooves, which are shown on City of Tucson Standard Detail 207. Aside from the Truncated Domes, the wheel chair ramps shall be constructed in accordance with the Standard Detail 207.
26. All proposed work in the public right of way will require a right of way excavation permit or a Private Improvement Agreement. Contact Steve Tineo of Transportation Department Permit and Codes at 791-5100 for additional information.
27. Revise the Development Plan according to the Drainage Report revisions.
28. Additional information and details might be required with the Grading Plan and the PIA plans
