Mr. Gibson,
The City of Yelm has completed the first review of the civil plans for Eagle Plaza. Your
application included:
• Civil Plans dated February 6, 2009
• Storm Drainage Report dated February 2009
• Sewer STEP Tank Sizing Report dated February 5, 2009
• Supplemental Directional Access Exhibit dated February 17, 2009

We have reviewed the plans for compliance with the City of Yelm Development
Guidelines, the DOE Stormwater Manual and general standards of civil engineering
practice. The following comments need to be addressed before the plans may be
approved for construction. Our comments are on the red-line set of plans attached and
in the attached comment letters. In addition:
Water Comments:
1. The fire hydrant assembly spool should be ductile iron, the plans show PVC.
Please see C.O.Y. fire hydrant detail 6-7.
Sewer Review:
2. Show the connection point for the Acid Neutralizing Tank (Vault) for all
buildings that will require this to be installed.

Miscellaneous:
3. Please include and show all easements, both existing and proposed.
4. The City of Yelm (COY) requires the applicant to contact Lemay Refuse Disposal
for review of the dumpster site plans. Please have Lemay review and sign a site
plan to be returned to the City in the next review.
5. The City requires the applicant to contact Yelm Postmaster for approval of the
mail box locations. Please have Yelm's Postmaster review and sign a site plan to
be returned to the City in the next review if needed. Existing mailboxes must be
removed.
6. Afire access lane must be provided through the development with adequate
turning movement (25' radius) and turn-around to each required fire hydrant.
The lane should be clearly marked on the plans and after construction
Please review and revise the plans to address the above referenced comments. When
the project is resubmitted you will need to submit 4 sets of plans and send back original
red lines. The project engineer should include a written response with the resubmittal,
indicating how all the review comments above have been addressed or responded to.
This will significantly expedite our review of the project. If you have any additional
questions or comments please do not hesitate to call or contact me at
steveh@ci.yelm.wa. us.

Respectfully,
Steve Harrington
