Tami – Can you please clarify the setback requirement for the City? Based on the attached email, our understanding is that the 10 foot setback applies to structures as well as property lines based on the statement, “the 10 foot setback that we require includes structures”. This input was critical to our layout of all of the site and building improvements. I look forward to receiving your input regarding the setback and if you have any additional comments regarding our updates / questions noted below. Thank you.

As far as the setback, I believe the 10 foot setback the City discussed is from the property line. The infiltration setback is a different thing and is out of the DOE manual. This is a setback from buildings not property lines. The setback is to prevent and undermining of building foundations due to stormwater infiltration in the immediate vicinity.

I have some updates and questions regarding the Salmon Run Apartment project (10720 Vancil Road Southeast). Can one of you please provide me with some input? * In response to your initial comments, we requested the geotechnical engineer conduct some additional testing at the subject site. During the supplemental geotechnical explorations, groundwater was encountered at an elevation of approximately 341.50. Test pits that were excavated to an elevation of approximately 339.00 a year ago didn’t have any seepage. According to the geotechnical engineer, last year at the time of test pit excavation, the rainfall for the water year to date was about 2.5 inches more than normal. This year during the recent explorations, the rainfall to date is about 6 inches more than normal for the water year. We anticipate this is contributing to the elevated groundwater level. It appears the most feasible option for utilizing infiltration facilities for the subject site is utilizing StormFilter units (see attached) for treating storm water runoff, with discharge to shallow, subsurface infiltration galleries. We would not utilize swales for treating storm water. The galleries would be similar to those previously proposed, with the exception of using more piping (to allow for more temporary, subsurface storage volume), having a shallower drain rock depth (3 foot depth for drain rock, rather than 5 feet as previously proposed), and a shallower excavation (bottom of gallery would be installed at elevation 344.50 or higher, allowing for 3 feet of separation from the recently encountered groundwater). We would still have the infiltration galleries located in the areas previously shown, with some of the galleries also expanding into the limits of the parking area more. The geotechnical engineer is currently conducting an analysis to determine if the revised storm water management system we are proposing meets the Site Suitability Criteria for the subject site? If the geotechnical engineer determines the proposed improvements meet the Site Suitability Criteria, will the City allow a separation of 3 feet as noted in SSC-5? Is the use of StormFilter units acceptable for treatment of storm water prior to disposal to shallow infiltration galleries? * We have a question regarding the following comment from the letter dated February 25, 2011: Site suitability Criteria 1 (SSC-1 Setback Criteria) – the infiltration facilities shall be set back at least 20 feet downslope of a building foundation and 100 feet upslope. Most of the proposed infiltration systems do not meet this requirement. We understand the setback criteria are provided as guidance. Based on an email from Tami Merriman (City of Yelm) dated November 1, 2010, we understand the City has allowed the 20 foot setback to be reduced to 10 feet. Please let us know if our understanding is correct and 10 feet is acceptable. I look forward to receiving your input. Please let me know if you have any comments or questions. Thank you. I appreciate your help.

I was out last week, husband had surgery. Anyway, the 10 foot setback that we require includes structures. The manual states: Site constraints are any manmade restriction such as property lines, easements, structure, etc. that impose constraints on development. Constraints may also be imposed from natural features such as requirements of the local governments sensitive areas ordinance and rules. They should also be reviewed for specific application to the proposed development. All facilities shall be a minimum of 20 feet from any structure, property line, and any vegetative buffer required by the local government and 100 feet away from any septic tank/drainfield. As I stated previously, the City has allowed the 20 foot setback be reduced to 10 feet.

Attached for your review is a proposed cross-section of the swale / infiltration gallery in relation to the building associated with the Salmon Run development. Based on the previous correspondence we received from you, we understand the storm water management improvements have a 10’ setback from the property line. Is there a setback requirement between the swale and the building? For certain areas of the site / building, we would like to extend the building foundation wall as shown and run the swale up to the foundation wall. Is there a setback requirement between the infiltration gallery and the building? We are currently proposing a 10’ separation between the gallery and the building. Please let me know what the City’s requirements are for these scenarios. Thank you. I appreciate your help.
