7. 7. The Drainage Consultant to the Planning Board, Brooker Engineering, found the application demonstrates that increases in stormwater runoff can be mitigated and therefore recommends that the Rockland Gaelic Athletic Association Clubhouse be approved for drainage subject to the following Project Comments.

 

 

Project   Description

This is the Drainage Consultant’s second drainage review report to the Planning Board for this project; the last  review was dated July 14, 2014.   The project includes the construction of a clubhouse with 7200 square feet building  footprint and patios, and sidewalks.  The proposed clubhouse is located just north of the Gaelic football field,  in an embankment that slopes downhill to the north. A full set of site plans,  including a drainage report, have been included for this Planning Board submission.

 

The engineering report shows land disturbance of just under one acre and provides an underground stormwater detention facility to mitigate against increases in surface runoff due to new impervious area.

 

 

Project  Comments

1. A drainage subbasin map shall  be included in the drainage report that clearly shows the watersheds and the area that is intended to be diverted to the detention system. For ease of construction and inspection,  include the delineation of the sub basin that is intended to be directed to the detention  basin on the Grading Plan.
2. 2. The drainage design shall include an orifice and control structure to regulate flows leaving the detention system.  Based on the design  inflow and outflow at the system,  it appears the 12-inch  pipe has capacity for the water runoff and the detention will not be achieved without a control structure. Include the stage versus discharge curve for the detention system in the drainage report.                        ·

3. Include the 2-, 10-,   25, and 50-year  design  storms  in  the drainage  design.
4. Provide more detail of the grading  on the south side of the building.   An additional  proposed  contour of elevation  106 is needed  along the south side  of the building.  Clarify  if the surface  runoff from the field south of the building  is  intended  to be diverted  around the detention  basin.   Provide  a typical  swale detail for this area.
5. Provide more detail along the east side of the building to demonstrate  that runoff from the handicap  ramp will not be directed  to the building.
6. 6. Provide a plan view  detail with dimensions  of the detention  basin   pipe system.  Add invert and top of pipe elevations   to the StormTech  Typical Section  Det
7. 7. Add a sump in the Catch Basin Detail with  a hood over the outlet pipe.
8. 8. Include  a maintenance  plan for the detention  system  on the Site Plan.

12. Based upon the circulated documents,  the New York State  Department  of Environmental   Conservation    (NYSDEC  – Department)  holds that the project will require  NYSDEC  permits  as indicated    below:

 

e  State-Listed  Species:  According  to Department  records,  the following  state• listed species  have been recorded  within   or near the project  site:  Bald Eagle, Haliaeetus /eucocephalus (Linnaeus,   1766); and Kentucky  Warbler,   Geothyis Formosa  (Wilson,  1811  ).   The  potential   impacts  of the proposed  project on these species  should  be fully  evaluated  during the review  of the project  pursuant  to SEQR.

 

The Department  recommends  that loud  noises   be avoided  as stated in  the National   Balk  Eagle   Management  Guidelines (http://www.fws.gov/northeast/ecologicalservices/eaglenationalguide.html).

Blasting  and other activities  that produce  extremely   loud  noises  should   be avoided  within  % mile  of active  nests,   unless   greater tolerance   to the activity  (or similar   activity)  has been demonstrated   by the eagles   in the nesting  area.

 

o  Cultural   Resources:  The Department  has reviewed the statewide  inventory   of archaeological    resources  maintained  by the New York State Museum  and the New York State Office  of Parks,  Recreation,   and Historic  Preservation.   These records  indicated that the project  is  located  within  an area considered  to be sensitive   with regard to archaeological    resources.   Contact  NYS office of Historic Preservation   website  at http://nysparks.state.ny.us/.

 

o (SPDES)  Stormwater  Construction:    If project  activities   will  involve   land disturbances   of over 1   acre, the project sponsor  is required  to obtain a State Pollution   Discharge   Elimination    System  General  Permit ( GP-0-10-001)    for Stormwater  Discharge  for Construction  Activities.    Since  this site  is within  an MS4 area (Municipal   Separate  Storm Sewer System),  the SWPPP  must be reviewed   and accepted  by the municipality  and the MS4 Acceptance  Form must be submitted   to the Department.   Authorization  for coverage  under the SPDES General   Permit is  not granted  until  the Department  issues   any other necessary DEC permits.

 

13. 13. All of the conditions  of this  decision,    shall be binding   upon the owner of the subject  property,   its successors  and/or  assigns,    including    the requirement    to maintain   the property  in  accordance  with the conditions   of this  decision  and the requirement,    if  any,  to install   improvements   pursuant   to Town  Code §21A-9. Failure to abide  by the conditions   of this  decision   as set forth herein  shall   be considered    a violation   of Site Plan  Approval  pursuant  to Town Code §21A-4.

Project    Description

This is the first drainage review report to the Planning Board for this project. The project consists of the construction of a 46′ x 49′ building extension and paved driveway and loading area. The area slopes downhill in a westerly direction and there is an existing riprap swale along the downhill limit of land disturbance. The applicant is proposing two drywells to provide stormwater mitigation.

 

 

Project    Comments

1. The storage volume calculations shall use the inside diameter of the drywell when calculating the volume of the drywell. The volume of the stone under the

drywell shall not be included as part of the available volume calculations.

2. Provide a connector pipe between the drywells.
3. Show the frame and grate on the drywell detail. Remove the overflow pipe from the drywell detail. Note on the plan the runoff pattern of overflows from the drywell.
4. Provide spot grades on the “fork lift and empty palette area” that demonstrate

that runoff is directed away from the building.

5. Add a map note that clearly shows which rooftops are to be directed to the

drywells; the calculations are based on 0.18 acre of land disturbance. The new driveway and fork lift area appear to bypass the drywells.

6. Add a map note indicating the maintenance plan for the drywells. Include in

the plan that the receiving field inlet is to be cleaned as well.

7. Add a map note that a soil test pit should be performed that demonstrates

groundwater will not affect the stormwater design.
