TO: Ed Roll; WLB Group, Inc.
SUBJECT: Eckerd Drugstore at Houghton and Golf Links, Grading Plan Review
REVIEWER: Loren Makus
ACTIVITY NUMBER: T03BU02485

SUMMARY: The Grading Plan was reviewed by Development Services Department Engineering Division. The Grading Plan and Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) were not approved at this time.
Grading Plan comments:
1. The Development Plan has not yet been approved. The grading plan cannot be approved until the Development Plan has been approved. These comments are based on the latest development plan reviewed by the Engineering Division. Additional comments may be forthcoming once the Development Plan has been approved.
2. Show sidewalk scuppers for roof drainage locations so that the stormwater from a 10-year event will be conveyed under the sidewalk per City of Tucson Development Standards 2-08.4.1.E.
3. All drainage structures, including drain pipes, in the right-of-way must be constructed of reinforced concrete. The City of Tucson Department of Transportation (TDOT) may not accept the drainage structure that exits and re-enters the right-of-way since maintenance responsibilities may be unclear. Documentation that TDOT Engineering Division will accept the proposed drainage structures must be provided before the grading plan can be approved.
4. Revise the grading plan to show that the thirty-foot natural buffer along Houghton Road must remain undisturbed. Any limited areas that must be disturbed must be revegetated to provide a natural appearance. The rip rap channel must terminate outside of the thirty-foot natural buffer.
5. Revise the Basin Grading Plan to show limits of disturbance and to provide existing grades and contours of the surrounding areas. Provide general dimensions for the proposed basin.
6. Show maneuverability for solid waste vehicle access to the trash enclosures.
7. The developer is responsible for compliance with the Clean Water Act Section 404.
SWPPP Comments:
The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan submitted for the Eckerd Drugstore project does not appear to meet the requirements of the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (AzPDES) General Permit for Discharge from Construction Activities to Waters of the United States (General Permit or CGP).

1. Clearly identify all operators for the project site, and the areas over which each operator has control. (Part IV.C.1)
2. Indicate in the SWPPP the name of the operator with operational control over project specifications (including the ability to make modifications in specifications). (Part IV.B.2.c)
3. Indicate in the SWPPP the name of the operator with operational control over day-to-day activities at the construction site. (Part IV.B.2.c)
4. Provide a table or some other method for recording the names and responsibilities for each party responsible for activities necessary to ensure compliance with the SWPPP or other permit conditions. (Part IV.B.1.d)
5. Describe the project and its intended use after construction is completed (e.g. low density residential, shopping mall, highway, etc.) (Part IV.C.2.a)
6. Revise section 1.8 of the SWPPP to be specific and applicable to this project. Indicate here or elsewhere in the SWPPP the timing for installation of BMPs that cannot be installed at the beginning of the project. (Part IV.C.2.b)
7. Confirm that the listed total site area include the areas of off-site disturbance including right-of-way improvements and off-site drainage improvements or revise the total area to be disturbed. (Part IV.C.2.c)
8. Identify on the location map the receiving waters within one mile of the construction site. (Part IV.C.2.e)
9. Identify the nearest receiving water(s), including ephemeral and intermittent streams, dry sloughs, arroyos. The nearest receiving water appears to be an unnamed tributary of the Eastview Wash. (Part IV.C.4)
10. Revise the site map to show, areas that will not be disturbed including the thirty-foot natural buffer and the areas outside the limits of disturbance around the proposed detention basin. (Part IV.C.3.b)
11. Show, on the site map, locations nonstructural controls identified in the SWPPP. Provide instructions for implementing all of the identified practices. (Part IV.C.3.c)
12. Show, on the site map, locations where stabilization practices are expected to occur. (Part IV.C.3.d)
13. For each major activity identified in the project description, the SWPPP must clearly describe appropriate control measures; the general sequence during the construction process that the measures will be implemented; and which operator is responsible for the control measure's implementation. Revise the SWPPP to clearly state when structural control measures that cannot be installed prior to beginning construction activities will be installed. (Part IV.D.1)
14. Specify that when sediment escapes the construction site, offsite accumulations of sediment must be routinely removed and at a frequency sufficient to ensure no adverse effects on water quality. (Part IV.D.2.a) (Part IV.D.2.c)
15. Document where any existing vegetation is to be preserved such as within the thirty-foot natural buffer. (Part IV.D.4.a)
16. Section 1.7 states that all of site will be disturbed, section 2.2.2 instructs the operator to preserve vegetation where no construction activity is planned or will occur at a later date and section 2.2.1 calls for scheduling to minimized extended disturbed areas. Provide instructions for implementing these directives.
17. The operator must maintain the following records as part of the SWPPP. Provide pages or tables to record the required information. (Part IV.D.4.c)
a. Dates when major grading activities occur. (Part IV.D.4.c.i)
b. Dates when construction activities temporarily or permanently cease on a portion of the site. (Part IV.D.4.c.ii)
c. Dates when stabilization measures are initiated and completed and reasons for delay, if applicable, under IV.D.4.b. (Part IV.D.4.c.iii)
18. 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)
19. Describe measures to minimize the generation of dust. (Part IV.D.8.b)
20. 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)
21. Include a certification and signature for each operator in accordance with Part VII.K. (Part IV.J.1)
22. Add a note stating that the operator 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

Revise the Grading Plan and the SWPPP to address all of these comments and resubmit two copies of the grading plan and three copies of the SWPPP. Include a copy of the approved Development Plan. If you would like to meet with me to discuss any of these comments please call me at (520) 791-5550 ext. 1161.
