STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
for
PELTRAM PLUMBING
FAC04-0029
Site Address:
The project is located in SE 1/4 Section 23, T21 N, R4E, W.M., west of West
Valley Highway and south of 15th Street. The tax parcel no's are 3751600711,
3751600727 and 3751600731.
Introduction:
This storm drainage technical information report has been prepared to address
the City of Auburn's site development and storm drainage requirements for the
proposed Peltram Plumbing located at West Valley Highway between 15th SW
and Boundary Boulevard. The site has an area of approximately 6.2 acres and
is currently undeveloped. The subject site will be developed with a commercial
building, associated drive aisles, parking, landscaping and utilities.
According to the City of Auburn's Construction Standards for storm water
management, the city requires storm water quantity and quality control to all
proposed developments. We have proposed to collect all of the storm water
runoff from the landscaped, building and pavement areas in a series of catch
basins. This water will be conveyed by storm drainage pipes to a storm water
detention and water quality pond located south of the proposed building. Here
the storm water will be released into a 12" proposed storm drainage line running
to the northeast connecting into the existing 18" storm main that runs along the
east side of the property and then east in the vacated 59th Avenue South right-
of-way. This system flows directly into the public system located in West Valley
Highway.
Plan Goal
The specific purpose for the storm water facility is to minimize pollution that is
typically associated with modern development. In general, pollution from motor
vehicles and pollution generated from erosion. Attached to this narrative is a
maintenance manual, which offers guidelines to the owner for storm water facility
maintenance.
Storm Water Easement and Maintenance Agreement
Page 6 of 17
Prevention BMP'S
The catch basins shall have stenciled on them "DUMP NO WASTE - DRAINS
TO STREAM." The owner shall be responsible for sweeping the lot, installing
storm drainage stenciling and provide spill control procedures. In case of spill
call DOE at 1-425-649-7000. The catch basins, detention/wet pond, and control
structures will be visually inspected for accumulation of debris and silt and will be
maintained as required by this pollution prevention plan and attachments.

No. 4 - Control Structure/Flow Restrictor
No. 5 - Catch Basins
No. 7 - Energy Dissipaters
No. 11 - Wet Pond
(Department of Ecology Storm Water Manual, August 2001).
Treatment BMP'S
A two celled detention/wet pond has been installed to treat runoff for
conventional pollutants. The wet pond was designed to treat 64% of the 2-year
storm event for water quality treatment. In addition, the detention pond was
designed to detain the volume created from releasing half the existing 2-year, 10,
25, and 100-year storm events, while holding the developed 2-year, 10, 25, and
100-year storm volumes.
The City of Auburn Utilities Section is to review and approve any changes to this
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan prior to changes in its implementation.
Additionally, any changes in ownership or person of responsibility are to be
reported to the City Utilities Sections.
Inspection / Maintenance:
Regular inspections of the drainage facilities should be carried out twice per
year, in the spring and fall. The responsible party should keep records of these
inspections available for review by the City. Additional inspections may be
required after severe seasonal storms.
Routine maintenance of the site will include mowing, care of landscaping and the
removal of trash and debris from the drainage system. The parking lots and
driveways should be kept clean and in repair. Events such as major storms or
heavy winds will require immediate inspections for damages.
Storm Water Easement and Maintenance Agreement
Page 7 of 17
To ensure proper water quality and treatment, the detention and water quality
must be properly maintained. Be careful to avoid introducing landscape fertilizer
to receiving waters or groundwater.
If wet pond side slopes become eroded over 2" deep, stabilize by using
appropriate erosion control measures (e.g., rock reinforcement, planting of grass,
compaction).
Catch Basins shall be cleaned when sump is 1/3' full of sediment or debris.

Maintenance Standards for Drainage Facilities
The facility-specific maintenance standards contained in this section are
intended to be conditions for determining if maintenance actions are
required as identified through inspection. They are not intended to be
measures of the facility's required condition at all times between
inspections. In other words, exceeding these conditions at any time
between inspections and/or maintenance does not automatically constitute
a violation of these standards. However, based upon inspection
observations, the inspection and maintenance schedules shall be adjusted
to minimize the length of time that a facility is in a condition that requires a
maintenance action.
