PHILIP POST 082 <br /> & ASSOCIATES • <br /> ENGINEERS/PLANNERS/SURVEYORS <br /> #52504 <br /> 24 May 1985 <br /> Ms. Susan Smith <br /> Orange County Planning Department <br /> 106 East Margaret Lane <br /> Hillsborough, N.C. 27278 <br /> Re: Stormwater Management Plan for <br /> West 10 Mobile- Park <br /> Dear Ms. Smith: <br /> The Stormwater Management Plan that we. recently submitted to you <br /> for West 10 Mobile Park, is of the format and detail required for pro- <br /> tected watershed basins in the University Lake Watershed. We realize <br /> that this project lies within a protected watershed and- that the format <br /> of the submitted Plan does not address all of the requirements of sec- <br /> tion 6.23 of the County Ordinance for Watershed Areas classified as <br /> - - PW-II. We further understand that infiltration of the first one-half <br /> inch of stormwater runoff from impervious areas is the intention of <br /> Stormwater Management Plans for PW-II Basins. <br /> We are currently working to revise the submitted plan to meet <br /> the requirements of the Ordinance for PW-II Watersheds. The revised <br /> plan will emphasize infiltration of stormwater runoff into the ground <br /> and not peak flow reduction. We are uncertain how Orange County pro- <br /> poses surface water will infiltrate into soils in the County in view of <br /> the predominence of heavy clay soils throughout the County. In this <br /> respect, we need assistance from the staff on how the Ordinance can be <br /> met at this site or any other site in the County. Upon completion of <br /> the revised Stormwater Management Plan, we will forward the Plan to <br /> the Planning Department. We anticipate finishing the revised Plan by <br /> Friday, May 31, 1985. <br /> If you have any questions, please let me know. <br /> li <br /> Sincerely, �.` <br /> Jh6; ?co it4it �5 <br /> B.
