SECTION 1
PROJECT GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Ramaker & Associates, Inc. (Ramaker) was hired to complete Civil/Site design services for construction of a
4-story Hotel located in Oak Park Heights, Washington County, Minnesota, hereinafter referred to as “the
property.”
The +/- 2.4-acre property is located on the Northeast end of Memorial Avenue North. The property is
currently a vacant parcel of land with grass cover and is adjacent to existing infrastructure.
The proposed development will involve the construction of a 4-story, 18,000 sq. ft. building with a surface
parking lot and associated drive aisles. A new storm sewer system will also be constructed and tie into the
existing infiltration pond/detention basin located on the northeast corner of the site.
1.2 PROPOSED PROJECT SCHEDULE
The proposed construction schedule will be as follows, but can be subject to change:
· July 2018 – Construction Bidding Time
· September 2018 – Beginning of Construction
· September 2019 – Construction Complete / Opening of Hotel

SECTION 2
SITE PROPERTIES AND EXISTING CONDITIONS
2.1 SITE TOPOGRAPHY
The existing topography of the property generally slopes to the east/southeast at gentle slopes towards
existing infrastructure.
2.2 SOIL AND GROUND COVER CONDITIONS
Soil Classification and Evaluation was completed for four soil borings advanced 26 feet below ground
surface (BGS) at different locations throughout the site. In addition, one boring was advanced to 16 feet
BGS in the area near the storm water infrastructure. In general, it was found that the material from existing
ground surface to approximately 2 feet BGS consists of uncontrolled fill material, from 2 feet BGS to
approximately 4.5 feet BGS consists of Brown Silty Clay with fine to coarse sand, and below 4.5 feet BGS
consists of Brown fine to coarse SP sands.
Based upon the possibility for over-excavation, the Minnesota Storm water Manual was used to determine
an infiltration rate of 0.80 inches/hour for the existing storm water infiltration pond. In comparison with the
existing design information provided for the existing pond, the previous calculations used an infiltration rate
of 2.0 inches/hour. However, this was prior to the most recent update of infiltration rates in the Minnesota
Stormwater Manual. Please refer to the attached geotechnical report for additional information, including all
soil boring logs.
2.3 EXISTING CONDITIONS AND RUNOFF TRIBUTARIES
This project is located on a 2.4-acre property that falls in the Brown’s Creek Watershed District’s (BCWD’s)
jurisdiction. Currently the site is undeveloped and drains gently to the east/southeast. Existing slopes over
the site are relatively moderate ranging mostly from 2% to 9% near the proposed hotel location and 20% to
35% in the existing detention pond. A portion of the site consists of slopes that drain to an existing
infiltration/detention pond, which were included in the City of Oak Park Heights design of the pond. These
areas have been included in the HydroCAD models of the existing and proposed site conditions.

SECTION 3
STORM WATER DESIGN CRITERIA
3.1 REGULATIONS
Brown’s Creek Watershed District Rules and the City of Oak Park Heights Ordinance, Chapters 300 and 400,
were used as a guideline for the design of this project.
3.2 DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA
Specific development criteria for this project involved utilization of an existing infiltration pond to account for
the creation of impervious area(s) from this project.
BCWD Section 2.7 lists references to provide BMP Design and Construction Standards for the overall design.
These references include; (a) Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Stormwater Manual, (b) Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency, Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas Manual, and (c) Minnesota Department of
Transportation, Erosion Control Handbook II.
Oak Park Heights Design Guidelines require that all storm water strategies must meet the water quality
standards of the Oak Park Heights Surface Water Management Plan. Consideration of minimalizing total
impervious surfaces, minimalizing direct connection between impervious surfaces, and planting more
vegetation are all objectives while completing the design.
3.3 HYDROLOGIC CRITERIA
Areas – The total area for this project is approximately 104,500 square feet (2.4 acres). There will be
approximately 72,000 square feet of new impervious area for this project.
Watershed soils – The soil types for this property consist of uncontrolled fill material, Brown Silty Clay with
fine to coarse sand, and Brown fine to coarse SP sands. Please refer to the attached geotechnical report for
additional soil conditions and all soil boring logs.
Pre/post project land use – The property is currently vacant and is zoned as Highway Business and
Warehouse. Once this project is completed, the land use will continue to be Highway Business and
Warehouse occupied by a new Hotel with an asphalt parking lot.
Rainfall intensity & Design Frequencies – The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
precipitation frequency data server was used for determining the rainfall intensities used in this design. The
frequency used was the 10-year storm event in order to check the capacity of the storm water pipes. Storm
frequencies of 2, 10, and 100-year storm events were also evaluated for the capacity of the infiltration pond.
The rainfall intensity was then used in the computer program HydroCAD to model the storm sewer system
under certain design criteria.
3.4 HYDRAULIC CRITERIA
3.4.1 Storm Sewer Piping – The proposed storm sewer pipe on this site will mainly consist of high-density
polyethylene pipes (HDPE), with one run of pipe consisting of Reinforced Concrete Pipe (RCP) as
indicated on the provided construction documents.
3.4.2 Streets, Curb and Gutter – Asphaltic concrete will be utilized for the parking area and related
entryways/aisles for the parking lot. The parking lot will be designed for drainage over the asphaltic
concrete parking lot to drain inlets to convey water to the infiltration pond as well as portions of the
asphaltic parking lot sheet flowing to a flume to convey water to the infiltration pond.

33945 STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN_2018-05-08
3.4.3 Infiltration/Detention Pond- The proposed storm system design will use an existing
infiltration/detention pond to capture runoff from the proposed parking surfaces, landscaped areas
and building rooftop. This pond also serves as a detention pond in order to reduce the post-
development peak discharge rates, as required.
3.4.4 Floodplain and Wetlands – According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) map
number 27163C0261E the site is Zone X which has no Base Flood Elevations determined, revised
on February 3, 2010. There are no existing wetlands on or nearby the site.
3.4.5 Erosion and Sedimentation – Prior to any land disturbing activity, silt fence will be installed along the
disturbance limits of the project and inlet protection will be installed and maintained on any existing
and all proposed inlets until final stabilization occurs. A temporary stone tracking pad will also be
installed at the southwest corner of the project off Memorial Avenue North prior to any land
disturbing activity.
Within 14 days of grading, any areas with exposed soil that have not been restored will have
temporary hay mulch spread to reduce erosion. Permanent seeding or sod will be in place within a
week of project completion and erosion matting will be used in areas of steep slopes. In addition,
rip-rap will be used at all storm sewer outlet locations to help dissipate the energy and reduce the
probability of erosion.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS
4.1 STORM WATER QUANTITY RESULTS
Brown’s Creek Watershed District rule 2.4.1(a) states that an applicant shall limit peak runoff flow rates for
the 2-, 10- and 100-year storm events to be less than the rates during pre-development conditions.
Hydrographs were developed for the 2-, 10- and 100-year, 24-hour design storms with both the pre- and
post-development conditions for the project area. The calculation results from the HydroCAD model for
existing and proposed site conditions are summarized below:
A complete set of calculation results are provided for both Pre and Post-Developed Conditions as
Appendices E and F.
4.2 STORM WATER QUALITY PROTECTION
This report summarizes the City of Oak Park Heights and Brown’s Creek Watershed District rules and
regulations that were undertaken as requirements for this proposed project. Coordination with staff
members of the Brown’s Creek Watershed District indicated that this development project would require
infiltration of storm water equal to the 2-year pre-settlement (pre-development) volume. The computer
program RECARGA was used to analyze the site under pre-development and post-development scenarios to
demonstrate compliance with this requirement. RECARGA information can be seen in the attached Appendix
E.
In order to ensure the infiltration of storm water on this site remains effective and functional, some pre-
treatment devices have been included in this design. They include sump catch basin/drain inlets and rip-rap
at all pipe outlets. Groundwater was observed during soil boring activities at a depth of 18.5-feet BGS, so it
is anticipated the existing and proposed continued use of infiltration practice will not pose a threat to any
nearby groundwater.
