General Comments
1 On February 26, 2006 we had a meeting with A.11iant Engineering and CSM to
discuss the grading responsibilities and installation of erosion control on the
entire site. Lowe's nor Ozark Engineering were Present at this meeting. It
was presented to us that Lowe's would be grading their .site, Novak Avenue
North, Norwich Avenue North and the pored., In addition, they would be
installing erosion control measures for these areas. At a later date, CSM will
be submitting plans for grading the area north of the Lowe's development.
2. Lowe "s will be constructing the storm sewer from the Pond to the Applebee's
pond,
Draw -g--Number 2

property lime adjacent to Lowes, (See attachment for pathway location.) This
pathway i s adj acent to a sidewalk along the west sine of the Lowe's Parking
lot, with this pathway it is not necessary to construct the sidewalk, however',
Lowe's needs to continue the pathway nortb from Wal-- Mart's property line to
the internal connector street, as shown on the attachment..

1, As per recommendations from the Brown's Creek Watershed District, the pond
has been designed with an extensive system of draintile for infiltration of storm
water into the ground, If in the future this drarnti le/in filtration system ceases to
function as designed, the 1 00Myear HWL elevation of the pond will be higher than
the catch basin ring elevations in Novak Avenue North (Nova Scotia .Avenue
North ender this scenario storm water may exit the storm structures in N ova
Scotia. Avenue and flow overland into the proposed storm sewer system in 60 "'
