The proposed sewer collection lines for the above-referenced project have been reviewed on behalf of the Pima County Department of Environmental Quality (PDEQ) and the Pima County Wastewater Management Department (PCWMD). This review letter may contain comments pertaining to the concerns of either Department. The following comments are offered for your use.

This project will be tributary to the Roger Road Wastewater Treatment Facility via the Santa Cruz Interceptor.
Per written guidance provided by the PCWMD Development Services Section, sufficient conveyance and treatment capacity exists in the downstream public sewerage system for this small project, and a formal capacity response letter from the PCWMD will not be required for this small project.

All Sheets: Show the jurisdiction’s case number, S07-155, in or near the title block of each sheet. This case number should be shown larger and bolder than any associated cross-reference numbers.

Sheet 1: Eliminate Wastewater General Note #1.

Sheet 1: Revise Wastewater General Note #5 to read as follows:

THE ON-SITE SANITARY SEWERS, EXCEPT PUBLIC SEWERS WITHIN PUBLIC SEWER EASEMENTS OR RIGHTS-OF-WAY, WILL BE PRIVATE AND WILL BE CONSTRUCTED, OPERATED AND MAINTAINED ON A PRIVATE BASIS, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH AN APPROVED OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN, IF REQUIRED. THE LOCATION AND METHOD OF CONNECTION TO AN EXISTING PUBLIC SANITARY SEWER IS SUBJECT TO REVIEW AND APPROVAL BY THE PIMA COUNTY WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT.


Sheet 1: Add a General Note that states:

THIS PROJECT WILL HAVE ______ EXISTING AND______ PROPOSED WASTEWATER FIXTURE UNIT EQUIVALENTS PER TABLE 13.20.045(E)(1) IN PIMA COUNTY CODE 13.20.045(E).

And fill in the blanks with the appropriate values.

Sheet 2: A Legend is required to show the wastewater symbols for existing/proposed and private/public.

Sheet 2: Show the proposed building on the plan and the BCS running to the building. The BCS should be marked as private and the slope/size and length should be shown.

Sheet 2: Show the rim and invert elevations of the cleanouts and mark them as private.

Sheet 2: Show the length/slope and size of the proposed private sewer on property between each cleanout.

Sheet 2: Number the proposed manhole where you are proposing to connect to the public sewer system. The proposed manhole must be called out as public and show the rim and invert elevations. Also show a blockout for a 6” BCS to Lot 3.

Sheet 2: Show where the proposed release of existing utility easement Dkt 2460 Pg 299 will end. It must not end within 10’ of new proposed public manhole.

Sheet 2: Call out the construction plan# and pipe size for the public sewer shown on plan.

This office will require a revised set of bluelines, and a response letter, addressing these comments. Additional comments may be made during the review of these documents.

Pima County Code Title 13.20.030.A.2 requires that a wastewater review fee be paid for each submittal of the development plan. The fee for the first submittal is $166 plus $50 per sheet. For the second submittal, the review fee is $50 per sheet. For all subsequent submittals, the review fee is $39 per sheet.

The next submittal of this project will be the second (2nd) submittal. A check for the review fee of this submittal in the amount of $100.00 (made out to PIMA COUNTY TREASURER) must accompany the revised set of bluelines and response letter.

If the number of sheets changes, please adjust the review fee accordingly.

5) DS Sec.2-03.2.2.B.1: The correct Tentative Plat number (S07-155) may be added to the lower right hand corner of both plan sheets where indicated by "S(YR)-___".

6) DS Sec.2-03.2.2.B.7: Revise the note on Sheet 1 of the Tentative Plat for the reference to the special overlay zone. Specifically the note should reference the LUC Code for the overlay as follows; "Sec.2.8.3, Major Streets and Routes (MS&R) Setback Zone." This note should be included in the General Note Section, revise.

7) DS Sec.2-03.2.2.D.1: Provide the following note on the Tentative plat under the Streets and Roads Note;

"Total miles of new public streets are 0."
"Total miles of new private streets are 0."

8) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.A: Provide the benchmark location (reference NGVD29 or NAVD88 datum), the proposed location of and method of tie to permanent survey monuments or to the nearest section corner or quarter section corner. All monuments found or set at all lot corners must be described.

9) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.C: Revise the Tentative Plat to reflect all existing easements with recordation information, location, widths, and purpose. If easements are to be abandoned provide the recordation information along with a letter from the utility companies stating their approval of the abandonment.

10) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.C: Provide all existing easements in plan view that are shown in the submitted Title Report. Specifically show the easements described in items 10 and 12 on Schedule B of the Title Report.

11) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.E: Revise the Tentative Plat to assure that all of the existing utilities are shown. Clearly show and label existing water lines, gas lines, electric lines, telephone lines/poles, and existing/proposed sewer lines. For sanitary sewers include the pipe diameter, the invert and rim elevation for all manholes and clean outs. Include the Pima County Wastewater Management Department reference number.

12) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.G: Revise the Tentative Plat to show all existing storm drainage facilities adjacent to the site. Provide the Improvement Plan reference number on the Tentative Plat for the storm drains and culverts that are adjacent to this site.

13) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.J.1: Revise the Tentative Plat to label the existing 100 discharge for the concentration points located along the northwest and north portion of the property. Provide the 100-year water surface elevation for the regulatory wash that flows along this portion of the property. The linear distance between WSEL contour intervals should not exceed 200-feet.

14) DS Sec.2-03.2.3.J.3: A symbol identical to that used to represent the water surface contour intervals shown on the plat should be included in the legend.

15) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.B: Revise the Tentative Plat to include the approximate square footage of each lot that is shown within the subdivision boundaries, or provide a note stating that all lots comply with the minimum lot size requirements.

c) Revise the Tentative Plat to provide for the intersection widening for Benson Hwy and 6th Avenue. Benson Hwy and 6th Avenue both have a proposed MS&R r-o-w of 120-feet, which requires a taper. For both Benson Hwy and 6th Avenue the taper has ½ r-o-w of 75-feet in width for a length of 300-feet measured from the centerline Benson Hwy and 6th Avenue, then tapers for an additional 300-feet to meet the future ½ r-o-w of 60-feet. No improvements are allowed within this future r-o-w area. Contact Tucson Department of Transportation, Jose Ortiz, for clarity on the additional widening that is required for this intersection.

18) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.J: Provide easements for all new utilities with recordation information or provide the description for each utility in respective Common Areas, verify that the CCRs match the Common Area descriptions. Easements are to be dimensioned and labeled as to whether they are public or private.

19) DS Sec.2-03.2.4.L: Revise the Tentative Plat, in conjunction with the submitted Drainage Statement, to reflect the following information. For additional information regarding drainage standards, see the City of Tucson Standards Manual for Drainage Design and Floodplain Management.

a) Provide spot elevations at intervals along the proposed basin bottoms to show slope percentage. The bottom of basin slope must be 0.5% or greater to prevent accumulation of standing water and mosquito infestation.

b) Provide the WSEL for the proposed retention basin in plan view or in a cross section with details.

c) Provide an access ramp in the basin to meet the minimum width of 15-feet. Provide spot elevations or percent slope for the ramp to verify that it does not exceed 15 percent.

d) Dry wells are highly discouraged due to substantial drywell failure within the City of Tucson. Revise the Drainage Statement to include discussion on all requirements within DS 10-01.3.5.5 and 10-02.14.5 (1-10) for all systems, which utilize a method of subsurface disposal, i.e. dry wells and underground storage chambers. The Drainage Statement must meet or exceed the minimum criteria within both Development Standards and within the ADEQ Type 2.04 General Permit for drywells that drain areas at motor fuel dispensing facilities where motor fuels are used, stored or loaded.

e) Verification is required when any drainage solution occurring outside the boundaries of individual lots is constructed with adjacent owner's permission, even if the same person owns the property at the time of platting.

20) DS Sec.11-01.9: Revise the Tentative Plat to provide the required 2-feet setback from all property boundaries to the proposed limits of grading, fill slopes, retention basin, block wall and any associated erosion protection. The plan view on the Tentative Plat shows that the limits of grading encroach within the required 2-feet setback for the basin along the north property line. Provide sufficient room to allow for the 2-feet setback from property lines to top of fill slopes and associated erosion protection.

21) Review and approval from TDOT Permits and Codes for all improvements within the public right-of-way will be required. A right-of-way use permit application will be required prior to construction. Refer to the following links for TDOT Forms and applications:

a) http://www.tucsonaz.gov/dsd/Forms_Fees___Maps/Applications/applications.html /

b) http://www.dot.ci.tucson.az.us/engineering/pia.php

c) Or contact Thad Harveston at 741-3115 for all additional questions regarding r-o-w.


DRAINAGE STATEMENT:

22) Dry wells are highly discouraged due to substantial drywell failure within the City of Tucson. Floodplain Ordinance Tucson Code Section 26-10(c) states: The design of a detention or retention system, as reviewed and approved by the city engineer, shall include consideration of the degree of existing development within the basin and the capacity of the downstream drainage facilities. The systems will be designed with strict conformance to the public's health, safety and welfare. The effects of recharging storm runoff and possible pollution of the groundwater shall be evaluated for all systems employing infiltration systems, such as dry wells, in order to prevent contamination of the groundwater aquifer. Dry wells designed within gas stations do not satisfy a design that is in strict conformance with the public's health, safety or with a discussion or evidence on potential pollution of the groundwater aquifer.

23) The results of a required 30-foot-deep boring (DS Sec.10-02.14.2.6) should be examined to determine possible causes of slow infiltration or engineering measures needed to ensure infiltration. Threshold retention requirements may be waived in certain cases when stormwater retention is not feasible due to constraints imposed by subsurface conditions. In such cases detention criteria may be imposed in lieu of threshold retention requirements. A geotechnical report must be submitted to address the required 30-foot boring.

24) Provide a geotechnical report that specifically assesses the proposed underground stormwater retention/detention system and dry wells beneath the pavement. The geotechnical report shall state whether the chambers are subject to collapsing or whether the pavement structure would be damaged from heavy traffic loads and provide a discussion on groundwater recharge for the proposed drywells.

25) Verify that the recommendations in the required geotechnical report have been addressed in the Drainage Statement, basin design and basin location.


GEOTECHNICAL REPORT:

26) DS Sec.10-02.14.2.6: A geotechnical report needs to be submitted for review, addressing the following:

a) Soils report should provide conformance with DS section 10-02.14.2.6 regarding 30-foot boring for the proposed retention systems, and provide discussion of potential for hydro-collapsible soils and any recommendation for setbacks from building to proposed retention systems.

b) The soils report shall provide identification / assessment of any potentially hazardous geotechnical areas, and state any geotechnical recommendations and whether there are special provisions for the soil preparation for this development.

c) Provide slope stability recommendations for any proposed constructed slopes.

d) Provide pavement structure design recommendations.

e) Provide infiltration rates for detention/retention design. If underground stormwater chambers and/or dry wells are proposed for the retention requirements a pre- and post percolation test will be required to assure that the system drains within the required time limit of 12-hours.

27) Provide a geotechnical report that specifically assesses the proposed underground stormwater retention/detention system with dry wells beneath the pavement. The geotechnical report shall state whether the chambers are subject to collapsing or whether the pavement structure would be damaged from heavy traffic loads.


GRADING PLAN:

28) DS Sec.11-01.2.1: A grading plan permit application (T07BU02153) has been submitted for review and comments have been posted. A grading permit may not be issued prior to Tentative Plat or Site Plan approval.

29) Please ensure the grading plan is consistent with the Tentative Plat, Site Plan, Drainage Statement, and Geotechnical Report. Grading standards may be accessed at http://www.ci.tucson.az.us/dsd/DevStandsTOC.pdf.

30) Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (AZPDES) requirements are applicable to this project. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans and text addressing stormwater controls for all areas affected by construction activities related to this development will be required with grading plan submittal. For further information, visit www.adeq.state.az.us/environ/water/permits/stormwater.html.
