Please find the Engineer's Report for this review attached to this email. At this point in time a number of the rule requirements have not been met. The Engineer's Report articulates the conditions that need to be met in order for the District to issue a permit for the proposed work. Per state law,the BCWD Board has until November 25, 2013 to take action on this Permit Application. Given the number of rule requirements that have not been met(and the number of corresponding conditions), District Staff has decided not to include the Permit on the October 14, 2013 Board Meeting Agenda. In light of this determination and the need for further information to complete the District's review of the application,the attached report does not include a recommendation on disposition of the permit. If the application were advanced on the information received to date,the District engineer would need to recommend that the Board of Managers deny the application. Please review the contents of the Engineer's Report and let me know if you have any questions regarding its content. If you or the Permit Applicant would like to schedule another meeting to discuss the rule requirements or the Engineer's Report we would be available to meet any time. Otherwise,we would like to see a revised plan set as soon as possible 1 so we can complete the Engineer's Report and make a recommendation for approval for the November 11th Board Meeting. Thank you.

Applicant: Ernest Swanson Permit Submittal Date: August 14, 2013 Completeness Determination: September 26, 2013 Board Action Required By: November 25, 2013 Review based on BCWD Rules effective May 1, 2007 Recommendation: NA GENERAL COMMENTS This Permit Application is for the construction of a Pizza Ranch on a 2.34-acre undeveloped parcel located on 60th Street North approximately 0.45 miles west of the intersection with Washington Avenue in the City of Oak Park Heights, MN. It is located to the east of the Americlnn Hotel and west of Menard's Pond. The project will include the construction of a new 6,238 Square foot Pizza Ranch Restaurant, 126- stall parking lot, all necessary utilities, storm drainage, landscaping, and restoration. Under proposed conditions, 1.56 acres or 66 percent of the site will be impervious. The proposed site drainage will flow into the existing wetland(Menard's Pond) located to the east of the parcel as follows(see grading plan attached to this memorandum): • 0.53 acres of the site will flow into Bioretention Basin#1 located on the northeastern edge of the parcel before discharging to Menard's Pond; • 1.14 acres of the site will flow into Bioretention Basin #2 located on the central eastern edge of the parcel before discharging to Wet Pond#1 located on the southern edge of the parcel and then to Menard's Pond; • 0.26 acres of the site will flow directly into Wet Pond #1 before discharging to the Menard's Pond; and • 0.57 acres of the site will flow directly to Menard's Pond. Rule 2.0—STORMWATER MANAGEMENT The Permit Applicant has submitted stormwater calculations that assume a lower hydrologic soil group (HSG) under post-development conditions (versus using the same HSG to establish curve numbers for FOR is an Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Emmons&Olivier Resources, Inc. 651 Hale Avenue North Oakdale, Minnesota 55128 memo Cont. (T)651.770.8448 (F)651.770.2552 www.eorinc.com stormwater runoff calculations by submitting a soil amendment plan). Under pre-settlement conditions it was assumed that the site is comprised of B soils and under post-development conditions it was assumed that the site is comprised of C soils for those portions of the site subjected to grading activity. Rate Control—According to BCWD Rule 2.4.1, part (a), an applicant for a stormwater management permit must demonstrate to the District that the proposed land-altering activity will not increase peak stormwater flow from the site, as compared with the pre-settlement condition, for a 24-hour precipitation event with a return frequency of two, 10, or 100 years in the subwatershed drainage area in which the site is located. ❑ Rule Requirements met, subject to conditions. The project proposes offsite discharge rates that are lower than estimated pre-settlement runoff rates for the site under the 2-, 10- and 100 year events, meeting the BCWD Rule. Rate control is accomplished using two bioretention facilities and a wet pond all of which outlet to the Menard's Pond to the east of the development. Table I.Pre-Settlement_ and Proposed Offsite Discharge Rates as modeled in HydroCAD Event Pre-Settlement Proposed 2-year 0.71 cfs 0.61 cfs 10 year 3.59 cfs 2.78 cfs 100 year 12.49 cfs 12.38 cfs Conditions and Comments: The following changes need to be made to the construction plans and the Permit Applicant must demonstrate that these changes will not affect the results presented in the stormwater calculations: • Sheet C3.11 – The Rip Rap Emergency Overflow on the plan set is 935.60 feet while the elevation in the HydroCAD model is 935.90 feet. Given that the peak elevation for the 100-year 24-hour event is 935.72 feet, additional flow would be coming out of the pond if the elevation shown on the plan set is the correct elevation. This would impact the peak flow rates reported for the 100-year 24-hour event which is very close to pre-settlement conditions. Clarify which elevation is the correct elevation and demonstrate that it will not increase the proposed condition peak flow rates for the 100-year 24-hour event. • Sheet C4.14 – As the Minnesota Stormwater Manual (MPCA) states, the "maximum allowable ponding depth (of a bioretention facility) is 18 inches". This note is included on the detail for Bio- Swale Section B-B but is missing from the depth requirement note on the detail for Bio-Swale Section C-C. In addition. the depth called out on the detail is 2 feet. This depth should be changed to 1.5 feet. • Sheet C4.14–The label for the wet pond should be changed to Pond Section A-A to match the labels provided on Sheet C4.12. In addition, the NWL provided on the detail does not match the NWL provided on Sheet C3.11 (933.0 feet)or the starting water level in HydroCAD(also 933.0 feet). Volume Control—According to BCWD Rule 2.4.1, part (b), an applicant for a stormwater management permit must demonstrate to the District that the proposed land-altering activity will not increase stormwater flow volume from the site, as compared with the pre-settlement condition, for a 24-hour 2 Emmons&Olivier Resources, Inc. 651 Hale Avenue North Oakdale,Minnesota 55128 memo cont. (T)651.770.8448 (F)651.770.2552 www.eorinc.com precipitation event with a return frequency of two years, or five years within a landlocked basin or a subwatershed draining to a landlocked basin. ❑ Rule Requirements Not Met Conditions and Comments: The project area is subject to the 2004 TSMP Agreement. Since the City of Oak Park Heights has consulted on and agreed to the implementation of the volume control standard in the BCWD's 2007 Rules, the volume control requirement for this site is the difference between the standard in the 2000 rules (which is met through regional treatment provided by the TSMP) and the standard in the 2007 rules. The following table summarizes the difference between these two volume control standards. As this table illustrates, the stormwater management plan will have to infiltrate 0.048 AF of stormwater runoff (the difference between the volumes generated under the 2000 rule language and the 2007 rule language or 0.100 AF– 0.054 AF). Bioretention Basin #1 infiltrates 0.035 acre-feet of runoff(for the 2-year 24- hour event) and Bioretention Basin #2 infiltrates 0.026 acre-feet of runoff(for the same event). The combination of the two facilities infiltration capacity for the 2-year event (0.061 acre-feet) exceeds the BCWD's requirement. Table 2.Difference between the 2000 and 2007 volume control requirements 2000 Volume Control Standard: 2007 Volume Control Standard - Pre-development CN of 61 (HSG B) - Pre-settlement CN of 57(HSG B) - 1.5 year 24-hour rainfall event(2.6 in) - 2-year 24-hour rainfall event(2.8 in) - 5%impervious allowance - No impervious allowance Pre-Development Conditions 0.069 AF Pre-Settlement Conditions 0.054 AF Post-Development Conditions 0.142 AF Post-Development Conditions 0.175 AF Difference between the pre-and Difference between the pre-and post-development conditions post-development conditions(volume (volume required under the 2000 0.073 AF control required under the 2007 0.121 AF rules which is exempted under rules) the TSMP Agreement) The proposed stormwater management plan does not comply with Rule 2.5.5 Infiltration Pretreatment which states that `surface flows to infiltration facilities must be pretreated for long-term removal of at least 50 percent of sediment loads". Since two of the three stormwater management facilities on the site are bioretention facilities designed to provide volume control in the form of infiltration, pretreatment measures shall be provided for all discharge points to these facilities. Given that these facilities are receiving parking lot runoff via one or more curb cuts it is recommended that the Permit Applicant evaluate the following options: grass filter strip with pea gravel diaphragm and/or sediment capture in the curb-line entrance area(e.g. Rain Guardian or equivalent practice). Pollutant Loading—According to BCWD Rule 2.4.1, part (c), an applicant for a stormwater management permit must demonstrate to the District that the proposed land-altering activity will not at the down gradient property boundary, increase annual phosphorus loading as compared with the pre- development condition. 3 Emmons&Olivier Resources, Inc. 651 Hale Avenue North Oakdale,Minnesota 55128 memo cont. (T)651.770.8448 (F)651.770.2552 www.eorinc.com ❑ Rule Requirements Not Met Conditions and Comments: The submittal materials include the results of a WinSLAMM Analysis used to demonstrate compliance with the water quality rule. The following information regarding the WinSLAMM model needs to be provided to ensure compliance with the rule: - Existing and proposed models have been revised to run 1957 as the representative average year. Supporting statistical analysis (narrative and output file) is required to review the validity of this conclusion. The following modifications need to be made to ensure compliance with the rule: - WetPond #1 - Outlet is multi-staged and therefore not necessarily modeled correctly; see WinSLAMM Help — Wet Detention Control Device — Other Outflow outlet device option for guidance(i.e. develop a unique state-discharge curve outside of WinSLAMM). - WetPond#1 -Evaporation losses have been incorporated; however appear over-estimated based on State of MN guidance and calibrated watershed models. Revise per rates provided in the following table: Month Evaporation Rate(in/day) January 0.01 February 0.01 March 0.03 April 0.06 May 0.10 June 0.12 July 0.24 August 0.14 September 0.11 October 0.10 November 0.06 December 0.01 - Biofilters#1 &#2-Native soil infiltration rate(0.6 in/hr) is acceptable; however the 8.0 in/hr for the 85%sand, 15%compost soil media mixture does not factor surface clogging or long-term in situ performance. Information submitted does not support the use of 8.0 in/hr for the engineered soils nor does the literature. For example, recent studies from the University of Minnesota St. Anthony Falls Laboratory (SAFL) indicate a long term average infiltration rate of 4.0 in/hour for iron-enhanced sand filters and the MN Stormwater Manual indicates 2.9 inches/hr for sand filters. Permit Applicant shall submit literature supported values for the use of 8 in/hr or modify the rates to reflect literature supported values. - Outlets are entered in WinSLAMM as 12 ft and 24-ft vertical standpipes, 8-inch drain-tiles and 5_ ft broad-crested weir overflows. This is inconsistent with the HydroCAD modeling and Bio- Swale Cross Sections. Rectify all inconsistencies between plan and models. Use WinSLAMM- Other Outlet to simulate multi-stage surface outlets, as necessary. Also note that WinSLAMM vertical standpipe diameters should be entered as feet. 4 Emmons&Olivier Resources, Inc. 651 Hale Avenue North Oakdale,Minnesota 55128 memo cont. (T)651.770.8448 (F)651.770.2552 www.eorinc.com Lake/Wetland Bounce—According to BCWD Rule 2.4.1, part (d), an applicant for a stormwater management permit must demonstrate to the District that the proposed land-altering activity will not increase the bounce in water level or duration of inundation, for a 24-hour precipitation event with a return frequency of two, 10, or 100 years in the subwatershed in which the site is located, for any downstream lake or wetland beyond the limit specified in Appendix 2.3. ❑ Rule Requirements Met The project meets the wetland bounce requirements by meeting pre-settlement rate and volume control up to the 100 year event. Therefore, no increase in bounce or duration of inundation will result from this development. Rule 3.0—EROSION CONTROL According to BCWD rule 3.2, All persons undertaking any grading, filling, or other land disturbing activities which involve movement of more than fifty (50) cubic yards of earth or removal of vegetative cover on five thousand (5,000) square feet or more of land shall submit an erosion control plan to the District,and secure a permit from the District approving the erosion control plan. ❑ Rule Requirements Not Met Conditions and Comments: The following components of the Erosion and Sediment Control/Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan need to be addressed: • Bioretention facilities should not be used as temporary sedimentation basins (to protect the underlying soils from clogging). Since the plan set indicates that these basins are to be used for temporary sedimentation, the Permit Applicant shall submit a plan articulating how the existing underlying soils will be protected from the migration of fines into the soil profile as a result of being used as a temporary sediment basin. For example, the plan should note the bottom elevation of the temporary sedimentation pond (a minimum of 18 inches above final grade) as well as the bottom elevation of the bioretention facility (final grade) and/or the bioretention facilities (while acting as temporary sediment basins) should be lined with filter fabric or other impervious layer to protect the infiltration capacity of the underlying soils. • Develop a restoration plan for the bioretention facilities and add notes to the plan set articulating the restoration activities required to bring bioretention facilities on-line. Restoration activities should include at a minimum: site preparation of planting areas; timing of native seeding and native planting: weed control; and watering of plant material. • Make sure the entire perimeter of the bioretention facilities protected with silt fence to prevent traffic in the practice. • Add the following items to the Project Phasing schedule(Sheet C4.12): - Bioretention facility restoration activities (last item following construction and stabilization of the entire site) • Add note specifying the use of low-impact, earth moving equipment (wide track or marsh track equipment, or light equipment with turf-type tires)in the vicinity of the bioretention facilities. 5 Emmons&Olivier Resources,Inc. 651 Hale Avenue North Oakdale, Minnesota 55128 memo cont. (T)651.770.8448 (F)651.770.2552 www.eorinc.com • Add a note indicating that over-excavation in the bioretention areas (for in-situ materials) is not permitted. • Revise the second sentence under "Responsible Parties" to address the NPDES training requirements for `person knowledgeable and experienced in the application of erosion prevention and sediment control BMPs". • Add text to the third paragraph of the grading notes on Sheet C4.13 indicating that test results shall also be provided to the BCWD and Landscape Contractor prior to continuing operations. The following components of the Landscaping Plan need to be addressed: • The Bio-Swale Detail (Sheet C4.14) states that these facilities are to be seeded with MnDOT Mesic Tall Grass Prairie Mix 15B. To promote the short- and long-term performance of the bioretention practice the District requires the Permit Applicant to install mature plantings over seed in the two bioretention facilities. Vegetation selection should be based on a specified zone of hydric tolerance (e.g. Plants for Stormwater Design by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is a good resource). In addition, salt resistant vegetation should be used in locations with probable salt application (e.g. roadside, paring lot, etc). The Permit Applicant shall resubmit a restoration plan for the bioretention facilities identifying the types of plant material that will be installed in the bioretention facilities. • Add language to the landscaping/restoration plan indicating that if a minimum coverage of 50 percent is not achieved after the first growing season, a reinforcement planting is required. • Ensure that the Bioretention facility restoration activities include: - Site preparation ofplanting areas - Timing of native seeding and native planting - Weed control - Watering ofplant material • Sheet L2.11, Landscape Notes. 4.03 states "install premium shredded hardwood mulch to a minimum depth of 4 inches"which is inconsistent with the notes on the Bio-Swale Section details (Sheet C4.14). Note in the landscape plan shall be corrected. Rule 4.0—LAKE, STREAM, AND WETLAND BUFFER REQUIREMENTS Buffer zone widths are dictated by the presence of a stream or tributary of Brown's Creek and by the quality of lakes or wetlands on the development site. ❑ Rule Not Applicable to Permit Rule 5.0—SHORELINE AND STREAMBANK ALTERATIONS According to BCWD rule 5.0, no person shall construct or install a shoreline or streambank improvement below the ordinary high water mark of a waterbody,without first obtaining a District permit. ❑ Rule Not Applicable to Permit 6 Emmons&Olivier Resources,Inc. 651 Hale Avenue North Oakdale,Minnesota 55128 memo Cont.
