The design package is required as part of the application for federal, state, and local environmental permits. Currently, Mill Creek flows through the Little Property in a linear channel. After the project is completed, it will include meanders, habitat elements, and native plantings. This portion of the Project will also increase channel capacity, thereby reducing flood impacts near James Street.

SUMMARY: As part of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), municipalities in Western Washington are required to maintain compliance with the State of Washington Phase II Municipal Stormwater General Permit, and by extension the Clean Water Act. Local stormwater management standards must be equivalent to those set forth by the Washington State Department of Ecology. The King County Surface Water Design Manual meets these requirements; as a result, the city has adopted the King County Surface Water Design Manual with minor revisions necessary to meet local needs. In 2021, King County updated its manual to achieve equivalency with Ecology's manual. Proposed updates to the Kent Surface Water Design Manual include continued adoption of the King County Manual along with necessary, city-specific adjustments due to geographic and procedural differences between Kent and King County. The draft Kent Surface Water Design Manual update has been submitted for review and public comment through SEPA and provided to the WA Department of Commerce. A presentation and public hearing were held before the Land Use and Planning Board on May 23, 2022. BUDGET IMPACT: None SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLAN GOAL: Evolving Infrastructure - Connecting people and places through strategic investments in physical and technological infrastructure. Sustainable Services - Providing quality services through responsible financial management, economic growth, and partnerships.

The city of Kent's existing Surface Water Design Manual a� ("KSWDM") was last updated approximately five years ago, in January of PC 3 2017, through the adoption of Ordinance No. 4234. r c a� Y B. The public health, safety, and welfare of the residents of Kent co require the proper design, construction, and maintenance of surface water and stormwater control systems. The KSWDM presents the City's strategy to reduce public hazards due to floods, erosion, and landslides; enhance L public health, safety, and welfare; better protects the City's environmental 0 N resources, specifically our native salmon; improves regulatory review by r introducing more certainty in the requirements; assists developers by providing more detailed information about how to analyze and design r r acceptable stormwater control systems; provides the City with the latest Q technology available for designing and constructing stormwater controls; and meets state and federal regulatory requirements for local municipalities under the Endangered Species Act and Clean Water Acts. 1 Surface Water Design Manual Repeal 2017 Ed. & Adopt 2022 Ed. Packet Pg. 13 4.B.b C. Due to the requirements of federal and state law, and updates King County made recently to its Surface Water Design Manual, it is appropriate for Kent to update its KSWDM. During preparation of the current KSWDM, City staff met with the development community and the manual was subject to review under the State Environmental Policy Act ("SEPA"). The City's SEPA responsible official has determined that the proposed r a amendments to the KSWDM are procedural in nature and further SEPA -°a Q analysis is not required for the adoption of the KSWDM. CL D. A draft version of this ordinance and the KSWDM was submitted to the Washington State Department of Commerce for expedited review on 4/21/2022, which was granted on 4/25/22. The ordinance and the KSWDM c T were discussed as informational items before the Economic and Community Development Committee and the City's Land Use and Planning Board on 5/9/2022. They were considered by the City's Land Use and Planning Board cc after a duly noticed public hearing on 5/23/2022 and by the Public Works PC Committee on 6/6/2022, both of which recommended Council adoption. N r Council has considered this ordinance, the 2022 edition of the KSWDM, Y together with all public comment, and has determined that adoption is co appropriate. a� c NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENT, c =a WASHINGTON, DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: p N m ORDINANCE c a� SECTION 1. - Repealer - 2017 edition of Kent Surface Water Design Manual.

This chapter describes the drainage review procedures and types,the drainage requirements,and the a adjustment procedures necessary to implement surface water runoff policies codified in Chapters 7.05 and -oa 7.06 of the Kent City Code. It also provides direction for implementing more detailed procedures and Q design criteria found in subsequent chapters of this manual. M a Chapter Organization M M The information presented in Chapter 1 is organized into four main sections as follows: a M • Section 1.1, "Drainage Review" c • Section 1.2, "Core Requirements" ,2M d C • Section 1.3, "Special Requirements" L m • Section 1.4, "Adjustment Process" M m Formatting of Chapter Text The text of Chapter 1 and subsequent chapters has been formatted using the following conventions to aid the user in finding,understanding,and properly applying the thresholds,requirements,and procedures Y contained in this manual: T 00 r • Italic is used to highlight the following: (a)terms when they are first introduced and defined within the same paragraph; (b)special notes that supplement or clarify thresholds,requirements,and procedures; (c) sentences considered important for purposes of understanding thresholds,requirements,and procedures;and (d)titles of publications. M 2 c • Bold italic is used to highlight terms considered key to understanding and applying drainage review y thresholds,requirements,and procedures. These are called"key terms"and are defined below. This convention applies after the key term is defined and does not necessarily apply to tables and figures. M • Bold is used to highlight words and phrases that are not key terms but are considered important to emphasize for purposes of finding and properly applying thresholds,requirements,and procedures. M Cn 1.1 DRAINAGE REVIEW M L Drainage review is the evaluation by city review staff of a proposed project's compliance with the m drainage requirements of this manual. During drainage review,city review staff may also consider the proposed project's compliance with other Kent requirements(which are not covered in this manual), such as those specified in the Kent Wetland Management Code,Kent Geologic Hazard Areas Code,and other environmental plans and policies. If required,drainage review becomes an integral part of the overall permit review process. This section describes when and what type of drainage review is required for 2. a proposed project and how to determine the drainage requirements that apply. Q City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-1 Packet Pg. 45 4.B.c Guide to Using Section 1.1 The following steps are recommended for efficient use of Section 1.1: 1. Determine whether your proposed project is subject to the requirements of this manual by seeing if it meets any of the thresholds for drainage review specified in Section 1.1.1. Making this determination requires an understanding of the key definitions listed below. a 0 2. If drainage review is required per Section 1.1.1,use the flow chart in Figure 1.1.2.A to determine what '0 type of drainage review will be conducted by city review staff. The type of drainage review defines Q the scope of drainage requirements that will apply to your project as summarized in Figure 1.1.2.A. 0 3. Check the more detailed threshold information in Section 1.1.2 to verify that you have determined the Q- correct type of drainage review. Ri 4. After verifying drainage review type,use the information in Section 1.1.2 to determine the core requirements(found in Section 1.2)and the special requirements(found in Section 1.3)that must be evaluated for compliance by your project. To determine what actions are necessary to comply with v� each applicable core and special requirement, see the more detailed information on these requirements contained in Sections 1.2 and 1.3 of this chapter. `m Note: For Steps 2 through 4, it is recommended that you arrange a preapplication meeting with city review staff to confirm the type of drainage review and scope of drainage requirements that apply to your proposed project. 0 3 Cn c d Y T oo r M 7 C C .y N C L d d V Cn L M m C E t V Q City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-2 Packet Pg. 46 4.B.c 1.1.1 PROJECTS REQUIRING DRAINAGE REVIEW Drainage review is required for any proposed project(except those proposing only routine maintenance, repair,or emergency modifications)that is subject to a Kent development proposal,permit,or approval listed below,AND that meets any one of the following conditions: 1.

City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-3 Packet Pg. 47 4.B.c 1.1.2 DRAINAGE REVIEW TYPES AND REQUIREMENTS For most projects adding 2,000 square feet or more of new plus replaced impervious surface,the full range of core and special requirements contained in Sections 1.2 and 1.3 must be evaluated for compliance through the drainage review process. However,for some types of projects the scope of requirements applied is narrowed to allow more efficient, customized review. Each of the following three drainage review types tailors the review process and application of drainage requirements to a project's size, location,type of development,and anticipated impacts to the local and regional surface water system: • Simplified Site Drainage Review, Section 1.1.2.1. o • Targeted Drainage Review, Section 1.1.2.2. Q • Full Drainage Review, Section 1.1.2.3. M Each project requires only one of the above drainage review types,with the single exception that a project Q- n that qualifies for Simplified Site Drainage Review may also require Targeted Drainage Review. Figure 1.1.2.A can be used to determine the drainage review type that would be required. This may entail consulting the more detailed thresholds for each review type specified in the above-referenced sections. M Table 1.1.2.A can be used to quickly identify the requirements that are applied under each type of drainage review. The applicant must evaluate those requirements that are checked off for a particular drainage review type to determine what is necessary to meet compliance.

The core and special requirements applied under Full Drainage Review are replaced with simplified site requirements that can be applied by a non-engineer. These requirements include flow control Best Management Practices(BMPs)such as setting aside open space to limit future site clearing,and using simple measures such as splash blocks and gravel trenches to disperse or infiltrate runoff from impervious a areas. Also included are simple BMPs for erosion and sediment control(ESQ. Formal water quality treatment is not necessary. This alternative to Full Drainage Review acknowledges that drainage impacts Q for many small development proposals can be effectively mitigated without construction of costly flow 4) control and water quality facilities. -tea a The Simplified Site Drainage Review process minimizes the time and effort required to design, submit, M review,and approve drainage facilities for these proposals. In most cases,the requirements can be met with submittals prepared by contractors, architects,or homeowners without the involvement of a licensed M civil engineer. c .N d Threshold L d T Simplified Site Drainage Review is allowed for any project that is subject to drainage review as M determined in Section 1.1.1 and that meets all of the following criteria: H V R • The project is a single-family residential project,AND .� 7 e • The project will result in 2,000 square feet7 or more of new impervious surface,replaced impervious surface,or new plus replaced impervious surface,or s Y • The project will result in 7,000 square feet'or more of land disturbing activity, H r oo AND that meets the following criteria: The project will result in less than 5,000 square feet of new plus replaced pollution generating impervious surface,will result in less than 3/4 acre of new pollution generating pervious surfaces,AND M meets one of the following four additional criteria: c aM T 1.

Any potential Simplified site proposal may elect to go through Full Drainage Review described in Section 1.1.2.3. R Scope of Requirements a E IF Simplified Site Drainage Review is allowed,THEN the applicant may apply the simplified site Q submittal and drainage design requirements detailed in Simplified Drainage Requirements adopted as , Q Appendix C. These requirements include simplified BMPs for flow control and erosion and sediment °' M control. Note: An open space tract or covenant may be required to preserve uncleared areas. a Exemption from Core and Special Requirements The simplified drainage requirements applied under Simplified Site Drainage Review are considered c sufficient to meet the overall intent of the core and special requirements in Sections 1.2 and 1.3,except aM under certain conditions when a proposed project has characteristics that trigger Targeted Drainage Review(see the threshold for Targeted Drainage Review in Section 1.1.2.2)and may require the L involvement of a licensed civil engineer. Therefore any proposed project that qualifies for Simplified Site a Drainage Review as determined above and complies with the simplified site drainage requirements detailed in Appendix C is considered exempt from all core and special requirements in Sections 1.2 and 1.3 except those which would apply to the project if it is subject to Targeted Drainage Review as specified in Section 1.1.2.2. c d 1.1.2.2 TARGETED DRAINAGE REVIEW Y T Targeted Drainage Review(TDR)is an abbreviated evaluation by city review staff of a proposed project's M compliance with selected core and special requirements. Projects subject to this type of drainage review are typically small-site proposals or other small projects that have site-specific or project-specific drainage concerns that must be addressed by a licensed civil engineer. Under Targeted Drainage Review, engineering costs associated with drainage design and review are kept to a minimum because the review includes only those requirements that would apply to the particular project. .y d C L Threshold M Targeted Drainage Review is required for those projects subject to drainage review as determined in T Section 1.1.1,AND that are not subject to Full Drainage Review as determined in Section 1.1.2.3,AND " that have the characteristics of one or more of the following project categories: R • TDR Project Category#1: Projects that contain or are adjacent to a flood hazard area,erosion Cn E hazard area,or steep slope hazard area as defined in KCC 11.06; OR projects located within a o Landslide Hazard Drainage Area. s m • TDR Project Category#2: Projects that propose to construct or modify a drainage pipe/ditch that is " 12 inches or more in size/depth or receives surface and stormwater runoff from a drainage pipe/ditch c m O that is 12 inches or more in size/depth. E L • TDR Project Category#3: Redevelopmentprojects that propose$100,000 or more of improvements o to an existing high-use site. Q Scope of Requirements R IF Targeted Drainage Review is required,THEN the applicant must demonstrate that the proposed project complies with the selected core and special requirements corresponding to the project category or E Q City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-8 Packet Pg. 52 SECTION 1.1 DRAINAGE REV 4.B.c categories that best match the proposed project. The project categories and applicable requirements for each are described below and summarized in Table 1.1.2.A. Note: If the proposed project has the characteristics of more than one project category, the requirements of each applicable category shall apply. Compliance with these requirements requires submittal of engineering plans and/or calculations stamped by a licensed civil engineer registered in the state of Washington,unless deemed unnecessary by city review staff. The engineer need only demonstrate compliance with those core and special requirements c that have been predetermined to be applicable based on specific project characteristics as detailed below Q and summarized in Table 1.1.2.A. The procedures and requirements for submittal of engineering plans and calculations can be found in Section 2.3. M In addition,city review staff may require the applicant to demonstrate compliance with any one or more Q• of the nine core requirements in Section 1.2 based on project or site-specific conditions. For example,if M a Category#1 TDR Project contains or is adjacent to a flood hazard area,erosion hazard area,or steep slope hazard area,OR located within a Landslide Hazard Drainage Area city review staff may require `° compliance with"Core Requirement#1:Discharge at the Natural Location"(Section 1.2.1). This may in c turn require compliance with"Core Requirement#2: Offsite Analysis"(Section 1.2.2)if a tightline is required by Core Requirement#1. If a tightline is found to be unfeasible,city review staff may instead p require a flow control facility per"Core Requirement#3: Flow Control"(Section 1.2.3). If a tightline is feasible,"Core Requirement#4: Conveyance System"(Section 1.2.4)would be required to ensure proper M size and design. Any required flow control facility or tightline system may also trigger compliance with "Core Requirement#6: Maintenance and Operations"(Section 1.2.6),"Core Requirement#7: Financial Guarantees and Liability"(Section 1.2.7),and possibly"Core Requirement#8,Water Quality"(Section 1.2.8)if runoff from pollution-generating impervious surfaces is collected. c The applicant may also have to address compliance with any applicable requirements in the Kent City Y Code for flood hazard area,erosion hazard area,or steep slope hazard area, OR projects located within a Landslide Hazard Drainage Area as determined by city review staff. o M TDR Project Category#1 This category includes projects that are too small to trigger application of most core requirements,but may be subject to site-specific requirements pertaining to floodplains,streams,lakes,wetlands,closed aM depressions,Landslide Hazard Drainage Areas,Erosion Hazard Areas,or other area-specific drainage requirements adopted by the City. Such projects primarily include single-family residential projects C in Simplified Site Drainage Review. +; M IF the proposed project meets the characteristics of TDR Project Category#1,THEN the applicant R must demonstrate that the project complies with the following six requirements: • Core Requirement#2: Offsite Analysis, Section 1.2.2 E Cn Q • Core Requirement#5: Erosion and Sediment Control, Section 1.2.5 L M • Special Requirement#1: Other Adopted Area-Specific Requirements, Section 1.3.1 M T • Special Requirement#2: Floodplain/Floodway Delineation, Section 1.3.2 S • Special Requirement#3: Flood Protection Facilities, Section 1.3.3 E • Special Requirement#4: Source Control, Section 1.3.4 Q TDR Project Category#2 This category is intended to apply selected core and special requirements to those projects that propose to construct or modify a drainage system of specified size,but are not adding sufficient impervious surface to trigger Full Drainage Review.

While the City believes these standards are appropriate for a wide range of development proposals,compliance solely with these requirements does not relieve the professional engineer submitting designs of his or her responsibility to ensure drainage facilities are engineered to provide adequate protection for natural resources and public and private property. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-11 June 2022 Packet Pg. 55 SECTION 1.1 DRAINAGE REV 4.B.c Compliance with the standards in this manual does not necessarily mitigate all probable and significant environmental impacts to aquatic biota. Fishery resources and other living components of aquatic systems are affected by a complex set of factors. While employing a specific flow control standard may prevent stream channel erosion or instability,other factors affecting fish and other biotic resources(such as increases in stream flow velocities)are not directly addressed by this manual. Likewise, some wetlands, including bogs, are adapted to a very constant hydrological regime. Even the most stringent flow control standard employed by this manual does not prevent increases in runoff volume that can adversely affect c wetland plant communities by increasing the duration and magnitude of water level fluctuations. Thus, Q compliance with this manual should not be construed as mitigating all probable and significant stormwater , impacts to aquatic biota in streams and wetlands, and additional mitigation may be required. M In addition,the requirements in this manual primarily target the types of impacts associated with the most CL typical land development projects occurring in the City. Applying these requirements to vastly different types of projects, such as rock quarries or dairy farms may result in poorer mitigation of impacts. Therefore, different mitigation may be required. M Additional mitigation may also be required to compensate for loss of critical area habitat functions associated with reducing standard buffer widths and clearing restrictions as allowed through the approval of Rural Stewardship Plans and Farm Management Plans per KCC 11.06.

Preservation of existing forested areas in Landslide Hazard Drainage Areas is encouraged. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-14 June 2022 Packet Pg. 58 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE aggravated by the proposed project,and to ensure appropriate measures are provided for preventing creation or aggravation of those problems.In addition,this requirement is intended to ensure appropriate provisions are made,as needed,to mitigate other identified impacts associated with the quantity and quality of surface and storm water runoff from the project site(e.g.,impacts to the hydrology of a wetland as maybe identified by a"critical area report." The primary component of an offsite analysis report is the downstream analysis. This examines the drainage system within one-quarter mile downstream of the project site or farther as described in Section 1.2.2.1 below. It is intended to identify existing or potential/predictable downstream flooding,erosion,and water quality problems so that appropriate mitigation,as specified in Section 1.2.2.2,and 1.2.2.3,can be provided to prevent aggravation of these a problems. A secondary component of the offsite analysis report is an evaluation of the upstream drainage system to verify and document that significant flooding and erosion impacts will not occur as a result of the proposed Q project. The evaluation must extend upstream to a point where any backwater effects created by the project cease. M a ❑ EXEMPTION FROM CORE REQUIREMENT#2 M M With the exception of. • Projects that trigger Core Requirement#3 (Flow Control Facilities)which must at minimum perform offsite analysis sufficient to identify and address"Downstream Drainage Problems Requiring Special aM .N Attention(Section 1.2.2.1.1),Problem Type 4(Potential Impacts to Wetland Hydrology problem)," C and m • Projects that trigger Core Requirement#8 (Water Quality Facilities)which must at minimum perform M offsite analysis sufficient to identify and address"Downstream Water Quality Problems Requiring Special Attention(Section 1.2.2.1.2)," A proposed project is exempt from Core Requirement#2 if any one of the following is true: c d 1. City review staff determines there is sufficient information to conclude that the project will not have a 1 significant adverse impact on the downstream and/or upstream drainage system, OR oo 2. The project adds less than 2,000 square feet of new impervious surface,AND less than 3/4 acre of new pervious surface,AND does not construct or modify a drainage pipe/ditch that is 12 inches or more in size/depth or that receives runoff from a drainage pipe/ditch that is 12 inches or more in size/depth,AND does not contain or lie adjacent to a landslide,steep slope,or erosion hazard area,OR c 3. The project does not change the rate,volume,duration,or location of discharges to and from the project aM site(e.g.,where existing impervious surface is replaced with other impervious surface having similar C runoff-generating characteristics,or where pipe/ditch modifications do not change existing discharge characteristics). d 1.2.2.1 DOWNSTREAM ANALYSIS The level of downstream analysis required depends on specific site and downstream conditions. Each project vn submittal must include at least a Level 1 downstream analysis. Upon review of the Level 1 analysis,DPER may require a Level 2 or Level 3 analysis. If conditions warrant,additional,more detailed analysis may be o required. m The Level 1 downstream analysis is a qualitative survey of each downstream system and is the first step in identifying flooding problems,or potential impacts to wetland hydrology problems as described below under "Downstream Drainage Problems Requiring Special Attention."Each Level 1 analysis is composed of four tasks at a minimum: cva • Task 1: Define and map the study area Q • Task 2: Review all available information on the study area • Task 3: Field inspect the study area • Task 4: Describe the drainage system,and its existing and predicted problems City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-15 June 2022 Packet Pg. 59 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE Upon review of the Level 1 analysis,city review staff may require a Level 2 or 3 downstream analysis, depending on the presence of existing or predicted flooding, erosion,or nuisance problems identified in the Level 1 analysis. Levels 2 and 3 downstream analyses quantify downstream flooding,erosion, or nuisance problems by providing information on the severity and frequency of an existing problem or the likelihood of creating a new problem. A Level 2 analysis is a rough quantitative analysis(non-survey field data,uniform flow analysis). Level 3 is a more precise analysis(survey field data,backwater analysis)of significant problems. a If conditions warrant, additional,more detailed analysis may be required beyond Level 3. For Levels 2 and 3 -oa downstream analyses,an additional Task 5,addressing mitigation of existing and potential flooding,erosion, Q or nuisance problems,will be required. M Extent of Downstream Analysis CL The downstream analysis must consider the existing conveyance system(s)for a minimum flowpath distance downstream of one-quarter mile and beyond that,as needed,to reach a point where the project c site area constitutes less than 15%of the tributary area. This minimum distance may be increased as follows: aM • Task 2 of a Level 1 downstream analysis(described in detail in Section 2.3.1.1)is a review of all C available information on the downstream area and is intended to identify existing drainage and water quality problems. In all cases, this information review shall extend one mile downstream of the project S. The existence of flooding or erosion problems further downstream may extend the one-quarter- mile/15%minimum distance for other tasks to allow evaluation of impacts from the proposed development upon the identified flooding or erosion problems. The existence of documented water quality problems beyond the one-quarter-mile/15%distance may in some cases require additional j mitigation of impacts as determined necessary by city review staff based on the type and severity of problem. Y • If a project's impacts to flooding or erosion problems are mitigated by improvements to the oo downstream conveyance system,the downstream analysis will extend a minimum of one-quarter mile M beyond the improvement. This is necessary because many such improvements result in a reduction of stormwater storage or an increase in peak flows from the problem location. 3 c • At their discretion,city review staff may extend the downstream analysis beyond the minimum distance specified above on the reasonable expectation of drainage or water quality impacts. LM .y d A detailed description of offsite analysis scope and submittal requirements is provided in Section 2.3.1.1. L Hydrologic analysis methods and requirements for Levels 2 and 3 downstream analysis are contained in Chapter 3;hydraulic analysis methods are contained in Chapter 4. d 1.2.2.1.1 DOWNSTREAM PROBLEMS REQUIRING SPECIAL ATTENTION Cn M While the area-specific flow control facility requirement in Core Requirement#3 serves to minimize the p` creation and aggravation of many types of downstream drainage problems,there are some types that are more m sensitive to creation/aggravation than others depending on the nature or severity of the problem and which flow control facility standard is being applied. In particular,there are four types of downstream problems where the c City has determined that the nature and/or severity of the problem warrants additional attention through the E downstream analysis and possibly additional mitigation to ensure no creation/aggravation: 1. Conveyance system nuisance problem Q 2. Severe erosion problem 3. Severe flooding problem 4. Potential Impacts to Wetland Hydrology problem. These four types of downstream drainage problems are further described below and precisely defined at the City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-16 June 2022 Packet Pg. 60 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE beginning of Chapter 1. Conveyance System Nuisance Problems (Type 1) Conveyance system nuisance problems are minor but chronic flooding or erosion problems that result from the overflow of a constructed conveyance system that is substandard or has become too small as a result of upstream development. Such problems warrant additional attention because of their chronic nature and because they result from the failure of a conveyance system to provide a minimum acceptable level of a protection. -oa Q If a conveyance system nuisance problem is identified or predicted downstream,the need for additional mitigation must be evaluated as specified in Section 1.2.2.2 under"Drainage Problem-Specific Mitigation -tea CL Requirements." This may entail additional onsite flow control or other measures as needed to prevent creation or significant aggravation of the problem. @ For any other nuisance problems which may be identified downstream,this manual does not require mitigation M beyond the area specific flow control facility requirement applied in Core Requirement#3. This is because preventing aggravation of such problems(e.g.,those caused by the elevated water surfaces of ponds,lakes, M wetlands,and closed depressions or those involving downstream erosion)can require two to three times as much onsite detention volume,which is considered unwarranted for addressing nuisance problems. However, L if under some unusual circumstance,the aggravation of such a problem is determined by city review staff to be +; a significant adverse impact,additional mitigation may be required. m Severe Erosion Problems (Type 2) Severe erosion problems can be caused by conveyance system overflows or the concentration of runoff into erosion-sensitive open drainage features. Severe erosion problems warrant additional attention because they Y pose a significant threat either to health and safety or to public or private property. T oo If a severe erosion problem is identified or predicted downstream,additional mitigation must be considered as specified in Section 1.2.2.2 under"Drainage Problem Impact Mitigation Requirements."This may entail additional onsite flow control or other measures as needed to prevent creation or aggravation of the problem. 3 c M c Severe Flooding Problems(Type 3) °' .y as Severe flooding problems,(i.e., a severe building flooding problem or severe roadway flooding problem) can c be caused by conveyance system overflows or the elevated water surfaces of ponds, lakes,wetlands, or closed a) depressions. Severe flooding problems warrant additional attention because they pose a significant threat either M to health and safety or to public or private property. If a severe flooding problem is identified or predicted downstream,the need for additional mitigation must be evaluated as specified in Section 1.2.2.2 under"Drainage Problem Impact Mitigation Requirements." This in may entail consideration of additional onsite flow control or other measures as needed to prevent creation or significant aggravation of the problem. p` M m Potential Impacts to Wetlands Hydrology Problem (Type 4) as Potential impacts to wetlands hydrology can be caused by changes in the rate,duration,and quantity of E stormwater discharged from the project site to a wetland. Where wetlands are identified on the site,the applicant shall submit a critical area report at a level Q determined by city review staff to adequately evaluate the proposal and probable impacts. Where wetlands are identified off the site AND the project is not exempt from Core Requirement 3,the applicant shall submit a critical area report at a level determined by city review staff to adequately evaluate the proposal and probable impacts. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-17 June 2022 Packet Pg. 61 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE Projects or threshold discharge areas within projects discharging to wetlands,unless exempt from providing a flow control facility per Core Requirement 3,must demonstrate that the existing wetland hydroperiod is maintained in accordance with the wetland hydrology protection guidelines in Reference Section 5. Based upon the critical area report and,if applicable,the analysis of project compliance with the wetland hydrology protection guidelines in Reference Section 5,city review staff will determine if changes in the rate, duration,and/or quantity of surface and storm water runoff from a proposed project or threshold discharge area within a proposed project could significantly alter the hydrology of a wetland--in which case,city Q- 0 review staff will require(as described in Section 1.2.2.2 under"Drainage Problem Impact Mitigation Requirements"), implementation of additional flow control or other measures to mitigate the adverse impacts Q of this alteration in accordance with the wetland hydrology protection guidelines in Reference Section 5. a n 1.2.2.1.2 DOWNSTREAM WATER QUALITY PROBLEMS REQUIRING SPECIAL ; ATTENTION M 2 A water quality problem,for the purposes of impact mitigation in this manual,is a situation in which a a� waterbody of the State is documented by the Federal Government, State,County,or City to be exceeding or at concern of exceeding the State's numeric water quality standards,or is subject to a federal, state,or county c cleanup program or action. Water quality problems and associated water quality standards encompass `m surface water,groundwater,and sediment quality. The goal of this manual is to prevent creation or `° significant aggravation of such problems to the maximum extent practicable. While the area-specific water a) quality facility requirement in Section 1.2.8.1,the source controls required in Section 1.3.4,and the oil controls required in Section 1.3.5 all serve to minimize the creation and aggravation of many types of downstream water quality problems,there are some types that are either not addressed by these requirements (e.g.,temperature problems)or warrant additional measures/considerations to minimize the proposed project's Y impacts to the maximum extent practicable. hi particular,there are currently 7 types of downstream water quality problems for which the County has determined that additional attention needs to be given to o preventing or minimizing increases in the pollutant or pollutants of concern discharging from the site.

This manual does not require development proposals to fix or otherwise reduce the severity of existing downstream drainage problems, although doing so may be an Y acceptable mitigation. T oo ❑ PRINCIPLES OF IMPACT MITIGATION FOR DRAINAGE PROBLEMS c i Aggravation of an existing downstream problem means increasing the frequency of occurrence and/or M severity of the problem. Increasing peak flows at the location of a problem caused by conveyance system r_ overflows can increase the frequency of the problem's occurrence. Increasing durations of flows at or above the overflow return frequency can increase the severity of the problem by increasing the depth and duration of flooding. Controlling peaks and durations through onsite detention can prevent aggravation of such problems by releasing the increased volumes from development at return frequencies below the conveyance overflow L return frequency,which limits their effect to just causing the conveyance system to flow full for a longer period °r of time. M When a problem is caused by high-water surface elevations of a volume-sensitive water body, such as a lake, wetland,or closed depression,aggravation is the same as for problems caused by conveyance overflows. Increasing the volume of flows to a volume-sensitive water body can increase the frequency of the problem's cn occurrence. Increasing the duration of flows for a range of return frequencies both above and below the problem return frequency can increase the severity of the problem;mitigating these impacts requires control of a flow durations for a range of return frequencies both above and below the problem return frequency. The net m effect of this duration control is to release the increased volumes due to development only at water surface elevations below that causing the problem,which in turn can cause an increase in these lower,but more frequently occurring,water surface elevations. This underscores an unavoidable impact of development E upstream of volume-sensitive water bodies: the increased volumes generated by the development will cause some range of increase in water surface elevations,no matter what detention standard is applied. Q Creating a new problem means increasing peak flows and/or volumes such that after development,the frequency of conveyance overflows or water surface elevations exceeds the thresholds for the various problem types discussed in Section 1.2.2.1. For example,application of the Level 1 flow control standard requires matching the existing site conditions 2-and 10-year peak flows. The 100-year peak flow is only partially attenuated,and the flow increase may be enough to cause a severe flooding problem. The potential for causing a new problem is often identified during the Level 1 downstream analysis,where the observation of a City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-20 June 2022 Packet Pg. 64 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE reduction in downstream pipe sizes, for example,may be enough to predict creation of a new problem. A Level 2 or 3 analysis will typically be required to verify the capacity of the system and determine whether 100-year flows can be safely conveyed. ❑ SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACTS TO EXISTING DRAINAGE PROBLEMS The determination of whether additional onsite mitigation or other measures are needed to address an existing a downstream problem depends on the significance of the proposed project's predicted impact on that problem. -ca For some identified problems,city review staff will make the determination as to whether the project's impact is Q significant enough to require additional mitigation. For Type 1,2,and 3 downstream drainage problems described in Section 1.2.2.1.1,this threshold of significant impact or aggravation is defined below.For a Type 4, M "Potential Impacts to Wetland Hydrology problem,"city review staff will make this determination based on Q- required critical area report findings,whether the project is in compliance with the wetland hydrology M protection guidelines found in Reference Section 5,the project's relative contribution to the identified c wetland's hydrology, and the mitigation proposed in meeting other requirements(e.g. flow control facilities M and flow control BMPs). aM For conveyance system nuisance problems,the problem is considered significantly aggravated if there is any increase in the project's contribution to the frequency of occurrence and/or severity of the problem for runoff L events less than or equal to the 10-year event. Note:Increases in the project's contribution to this type of problem are considered to be prevented if sufficient onsite flow control and/or offsite improvements are M provided as specified in Table 1.2.3.A. For severe erosion problems,the problem is considered significantly aggravated if there is any increase in project's existing contribution to the flow duration14 of peak flows ranging from 50%of the 2-year peak flow t� up to the full 50-year peak flow at the eroded area. Note:Increases in the project's contribution to this type of c problem are considered to be prevented if Conservation flow control or offsite improvements are provided as Y specified in Table 1.2.3.A. r oo For severe building flooding problems,the problem is considered significantly aggravated if there is any increase in the project's existing contribution15 to the frequency,depth,and/or duration of the problem for runoff events less than or equal to the 100-year event. M For severe roadway flooding problems,the problem is considered significantly aggravated if any of the following thresholds are exceeded and there is any increase in the project's contribution19 to the frequency, depth,and/or duration of the problem for runoff events less than or equal to the 100-year event: • The existing flooding16 over all lanes of a roadway or overtopping the culverted section of a sole access driveway is predicted to increase in depth more than a quarter-inch or 10%(whichever is greater)for the 100-year runoff event. d • The existing flooding over all lanes of a roadway or severely impacting a sole access driveway cva is more than 6 inches deep or faster than 5 feet per second for runoff events less than or equal to the 100-year event.A severely impacted sole access driveway is one in which flooding overtops a culverted section Cn of the driveway,posing a threat of washout or unsafe access conditions due to indiscernible driveway a 0 M m C 14 Flow duration means the aggregate time that peak flows are at or above a particular flow rate of interest(e.g.,the amount of time over the E last 40 years that peak flows were at or above the 2-year flow rate).

Note that in some cases,the area-specific flow control facility requirement applicable to the proposed project per Section 1.2.3.1 is already sufficient to prevent significant aggravation of many of the defined downstream drainage problem types. Such situations are noted in Table 1.2.3.A as not needing additional onsite flow control or offsite improvements.

For the S 259th/3rd Avenue Regional Detention facility(refer to flow control map)the above conditions shall apply with the exemption that only one-half of the Green River Management Agreement flood storage volume shall be required. c Q m Flow Control Requirements for Horseshoe Acres and Union Pacific Pump Stations M CL Developments within the service areas draining to the Horseshoe Acres and Union Pacific Pump Stations along the Green River are required to provide on-site Conservation flow control and are required to provide on-site water quality treatment. Release rates and/or detention requirements may be imposed by the City when the Applicant's downstream analysis indicates that the existing stormwater conveyance system from the development to the pump station °' does not have the necessary capacity to carry the increased flows,OR the pump station does not have the c capacity to store and/or pump the additional runoff flows without local flooding. Appropriate off-site mitigation measures to off-set identified conveyance or pumping constraints may be `° proposed by the Applicant and accepted at the discretion of the Director. Area-specific Regional Facilities Stormwater detention and treatment are not required for any development that discharges to the Valley Regional Detention/Enhanced Wetland Facility also known as the Green River Natural Resource Area Y (see the flow control applications map for the relevant subbasin boundary). The facility has been sized to provide detention and treatment for both existing and future developments. Stormwater treatment and detention are required for any development that discharges to the 98th Avenue South Regional Treatment/Detention Pond because this system is designed to handle existing erosion problems and is not designed to provide adequate detention and treatment according to current standards for existing or future developments. 2 c Stormwater detention and treatment are also required for any development that discharges to the Meridian aM Meadows(Springwood)Regional Detention Pond/Wetland Facility or the Upper or Lower Mill Creek o Regional Detention Facilities. These facilities were not designed to provide regional detention or treatment according to current standards for existing or future developments.

Drainage standards applied within these areas shall be in accordance with the provisions of the respective Master Drainage Plans. Cn M L 1.2.3.1 AREA-SPECIFIC FLOW CONTROL FACILITY REQUIREMENT m R Projects subject to Core Requirement#3 must,at a minimum,comply with the area-specific flow control e standards per the threshold information detailed in this section. These standards are described below. E a � Q City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-26 June 2022 Packet Pg. 70 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE Guide to Applying the Area-Specific Flow Control Facility Requirement The flow control facility requirement varies across the city landscape according to the flow control area within which the project or a threshold discharge area of the project is located.Flow control areas are designated by the city to target the level of flow control performance to the broad protection needs of specific basins or subbasins. There are currently nine such flow control areas,which are depicted on the Flow Control Applications Map a adopted with this manual: �o Q • Conservation Flow Control Areas • Flood Problem Flow Control Areas M • Green River Natural Resource Area regional FC facility Q- • Green River Management Agreement FC Areas • Riverview Basin Plan FC Area, • Lakes Regional Detention FC Area `° • Horseshoe Acres FC Area c aM • Union Pacific Pump Station Area • S.259th/3rd Ave. S.Regional Detention Area p L d Each flow control area has an area-specific set of minimum flow control facility performance criteria,design W assumptions,surfaces that must be mitigated,and exceptions. These provisions all comprise what is referred to as the "area-specific flow control facility requirement." Note that the minimum required performance of the facility as specified by this requirement may need to be tn' increased to ensure that downstream drainage problems are not created or significantly aggravated as set forth in c Section 1.2.2.2, "Drainage Problem-Specific Mitigation Requirements." Table 1.2.3.A provides a quick guide for Y selecting the flow control performance criteria necessary to meet both the area-specific flow control facility T requirement and the problem-specific mitigation requirement. This is further explained in Step 4 below. O0 M For efficient application of the flow control facility requirement,the following steps are recommended: M c M 2 1. Use the Flow Control Applications Map to determine the flow control area in which your project is located. c aM .y 2. Consult the detailed requirement and exception language for the identified flow control area to determine if C and how the flow control facility requirement applies to your project.This requirement and exception language is detailed on subsequent pages for each of the nine flow control areas depicted on the Flow o Control Applications Map. If a flow control facility is not applicable per the area-specific exceptions, proceed to Step 6. 3. If downstream drainage problems were identified through offsite analysis per Core Requirement#2 and are C j proposed to be addressed through onsite flow control,use Table 1.2.3.A to determine if and what additional flow control performance is necessary to mitigate impacts(i.e.,to prevent creation or aggravation of the p identified problems). m 4. Use Section 1.2.3.2 to identify the applicable requirements for implementing the flow control facility requirement.These requirements cover facility siting,analysis and design,unusual situations,and other site- m specific considerations. 5. Use Core Requirement 9 to identify the flow control BMPs that must be applied to your project site Q regardless of whether a flow control facility is required.

If this happens,the performance goals of each applicable problem-specific criteria must be met. This can require extensive, time-consuming analysis to implement multiple sets of outflow performance criteria if additional onsite flow control is the only viable option for00 mitigating impacts to these problems. In these cases,it may be easier and more prudent to implement the historic site conditions Level 3 flow M control standard in place of the otherwise required area-specific standard. Use of the historic Level 3 flow control standard satisfies the specified `r performance criteria for all the area-specific and problem-specific requirements except if adjustments are required per the special provision for closed O depressions described below in Note 5. (z) Overflow Tr is the return period of conveyance system overflow. To determine T,requires a minimum level 2 downstream analysis as detailed in 2 Section 2.3.1.1.

If necessary,iteratively adjust onsite flow control performance to prevent increases. Note: The point of compliance analysis relies on certain field measurements taken directly at the closed depression(e.g.,soils c� tests,topography,etc). If permission to enter private property for such measurements is denied,city review staff may waive this provision and apply M the Level 3 flow control standard with a mandatory 20%safety factor on the storage volume. c O E IMPERVIOUS SURFACE PERCENTAGE EXEMPTION FOR AGRICULTURAL PROJECTS Q For agricultural projects located within an Agricultural Production District(APD),Farmland Preservation Program(FPP),or site zoned A, any onsite threshold discharge area is exempt from the flow control facility requirement if it meets all of the following conditions: a) The total(new,replaced,and existing)amount of impervious surface that is not fully dispersed per the criteria on page 1-46 must be no more than 4%of the threshold discharge area,AND City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-28 June 2022 Packet Pg. 72 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE b) New impervious surfaces and new pervious surfaces must not disturb,impact,or replace native vegetation, AND c) Flow control BMPs must be applied to new impervious surfaces as specified in Core Requirement 9,AND d) All impervious surface area,except 10,000 square feet of it,must be set back from its natural location of discharge from the site at least 100 feet for every 10,000 square feet of total impervious surface and its runoff must be discharged in an unconcentrated manner that promotes infiltration and evapotranspiration, AND c e) Increased runoff from the new impervious surface and new pervious surface must not significantly impact Q a critical area,severe flooding problem,or severe erosion problem,AND M f) The manner in which runoff is discharged from the project site must not create a significant adverse impact a per core requirement#1. M M c M BASIC FLOW CONTROL AREAS c aM Basic flow control(Level 1)is not permitted anywhere in Kent. 0 C CONSERVATION FLOW CONTROL AREAS d M Conservation Flow Control Areas cover most developable areas of Kent. Conservation Flow Control Areas are the default designation unless otherwise indicated on the City of Kent Flow Control Applications Map adopted with this manual. 3 Note:For projects located at or near the delineated boundary of the Conservation Flow Control Area, site specific topography or drainage information may be needed to verify that a project or any threshold discharge Y area of a project is within the flow control area.Any threshold discharge area is considered to be within the oo Conservation Flow Control Area if the threshold discharge area drains to a waterbody or drainage system M that is clearly within the mapped Conservation Flow Control Area. Minimum Required Performance M 2 Facilities in Conservation Flow Control Areas must comply with the following flow control performance a� R standard and assumptions unless modified by offsite analysis per Core Requirement#2(see Table 1.2.3.A). L C e Level 2 Flow Control: Match developed discharge durations to predeveloped durations for the range of o predeveloped discharge rates from 50%of the 2-year peak flow up to the full 50-year peak flow. M Also match developed peak discharge rates to predeveloped peak discharge rates for the 2-and 10- M year return periods.Assume historic site conditions as the predeveloped condition. Intent vn M The Level 2 flow control standard assuming historic site conditions is intended to limit the amount of time that o erosive flows are at work generating erosion and sedimentation within natural and constructed drainage M systems. Such control is effective in preventing development-induced increases in natural erosion rates and reducing existing erosion rates where they may have been increased by past development of the site. This is accomplished by maintaining at historic predevelopment levels the aggregate time that developed flows exceed an erosion-causing threshold(i.e., 50%of the historic 2-year peak flow).Maintaining natural erosion rates within streams and their tributary areas is important for preventing increases in stream channel erosion and c�a sediment loading that are detrimental to salmonid habitat and production. Q Effectiveness in Addressing Downstream Problems While the Level 2 flow control standard assuming historic site conditions provides a reasonable level of protection for preventing most development-induced problems,it does not necessarily prevent increases in existing site conditions 100-year peak flows that can aggravate severe flooding problems as described in Core City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-29 June 2022 Packet Pg. 73 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE Requirement#2,nor does it necessarily prevent aggravation of all severe erosion problems. Consequently,if one or more of these problems are identified through offsite analysis per Core Requirement#2,additional onsite flow control and/or offsite improvements will likely be required(see "Drainage Problem-Specific Mitigation Requirements" in Section 1.2.2.2. Target Surfaces Facilities in Conservation Flow Control Areas must mitigate(either directly or in effect)the runoff from the a following target developed surfaces within the threshold discharge area for which the facility is required: -ca Q 1.

The historic site conditions assumption for application of Level 2 flow control may be reduced through a M basin plan or study approved by the City and the Washington State Department of Ecology. One possible reduction is to an assumption of 75%forest, 15%grass,and 10%impervious surface(75/15/10 conditions) or existing site conditions,whichever generates the lowest 100-year peak flow.Another possible change that could be made through a City and Ecology approved basin plan or study is to the lowest peak flow (50%of the 2-year peak flow)above which discharge durations must be matched. This peak flow,known as the geomorphic threshold of bed load movement,may be changed based on the actual channel Q conditions necessary to protect or allow for restoration of water body beneficial uses and habitat functions essential to salmonids. 2. The facility requirement in Conservation Flow Control Areas is waived for any threshold discharge area in which there is no more than a 0.15-cfs difference(when modeled using 15 minute time steps)or no more than a 0.1-cfs difference(when modeled using 1 hour time steps)in the sum of developed 100-year peak City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-30 June 2022 Packet Pg. 74 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE flows for those target surfaces subject to this requirement and the sum of historic site conditions 100-year peak flows(modeled using same time step unit(e.g.,hourly or 15 minute)used to calculate the developed flow)for the same surface areas.Agricultural zoned projects in current agricultural use may use existing site conditions as the predeveloped condition for purposes of this exception calculation.Note: for the purposes of this calculation,target surfaces served by flow control BMPs per Appendix C may be modeled in accordance with the flow control BMP facility sizing credits in Core Requirement 9,Table 1.2.9.A. 3. The facility requirement in Conservation Flow Control Areas may be reduced or waived for any threshold discharge area where a plan or study approved by the City and Ecology shows that a lower standard(e.g., o Level 1 flow control)is sufficient or no facility is necessary to protect or allow for restoration of water Q body beneficial uses and habitat functions essential to salmonids. 4. The facility requirement in Conservation Flow Control Areas as applied to replaced impervious surface -tea 0. may be waived if the City has adopted a plan and implementation schedule approved by state Department M of Ecology for fulfilling this requirement in regional facilities. M 5. The facility requirement in Conservation Flow Control Areas as applied to replaced impervious surface M may be reduced by DPER using the procedures detailed in Sections 1.4.3 and 1.4.4 of the adjustment process,if the cost of flow control facilities to mitigate all target surfaces exceeds that necessary to a� mitigate only for new impervious surface plus new pervious surface and also exceeds 1/3 of the valuation of proposed improvements(including interior improvements)or twice the cost of a facility to mitigate L equivalent surfaces on a new development site,whichever is less. +; M ❑ FLOOD PROBLEM FLOW CONTROL AREAS Flood Problem Flow Control Areas are designated by the City of Kent where it has been determined that a higher average level of flow control is needed to prevent aggravation of existing documented flooding or erosion problems.

Y Note: For projects located at or near the delineated boundary of the Flood Problem Flow Control Area, site- oo specific topography or drainage information may be needed to verify that a project or any threshold discharge M area of a project is within the flow control area.Any threshold discharge area is considered to be within the Flood Problem Flow Control Area if the threshold discharge area drains to a waterbody or drainage system that is clearly within the mapped Flood Problem Flow Control Area. c Minimum Required Performance °' .y a� Facilities in Flood Problem Flow Control Areas must comply with the following flow control performance o standard and assumptions unless modified by offsite analysis per Core Requirement#2(see Table 1.2.3.A). ar M Level 3 Flow Control: Apply the Level 2 flow control standard,AND match the developed 100-year peak discharge rate to the predeveloped 100-year peak discharge rate. If the Flood Problem Flow Control Area is located within a Conservation Flow Control Area,then historic site conditions shall be assumed as the predeveloped condition except for the purposes of matching 100-year peak discharge rates.For all other Cn situations and for the purposes of matching 100-year peak discharge rates,existing site conditions may be M assumed. o M m Intent The Level 3 flow control standard is intended to prevent significant increases in existing water surface levels for 2-year through 100-year return frequencies. Such increases are expected to occur as the volume of runoff E discharging to the water body is increased by upstream development.Because inflow rates to these water bodies are typically much higher than the outflow rates,increased runoff volumes from upstream development are, in effect, stacked on top of existing volumes in the water body,resulting in higher water surface levels. The Q duration-matching and 100-year peak-matching criteria of the Level 3 flow control standard counteract this stacking effect by slowing the arrival of additional runoff volumes.Because it can prevent significant aggravation of existing flooding,the Level 3 standard is also applicable to other flow control areas where severe flooding problems have been identified per Core Requirement#2. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-31 June 2022 Packet Pg. 75 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE Effectiveness in Addressing Downstream Drainage Problems If the Level 3 flow control standard is implemented onsite,no additional measures are required to prevent aggravation of the three types of downstream drainage problems described in Core Requirement#2. The one exception is for a wetland or lake that is a closed depression with a severe flooding problem,and the proposed project is adding impervious surface area amounting to more than 10%of the 100-year water surface area of the closed depression.In this case,additional onsite flow control or offsite improvements may be necessary as determined by a"point of compliance analysis" (see"Special Provision for Closed Depressions"in Table 1.2.3.A and see Section 3.3.6, "Point of Compliance Analysis"). c Target Surfaces Q as Facilities in Flood Problem Flow Control Areas must mitigate(either directly or in effect)the runoff from -aa CL the following target developed surfaces within the threshold discharge area for which the facility is required: M M 1. The target surfaces are the same as those required for facilities in Conservation Flow Control Areas unless c otherwise allowed by the area-specific exceptions for Conservation Flow Control Areas. `° c Exceptions •N a� The following exceptions apply only in Flood Problem Flow Control Areas: m M 1. Any required application of the Flood Problem Flow Control Areas facility requirement to replaced 3: impervious surface may be waived if the City has adopted a plan and implementation schedule approved by the state Department of Ecology for fulfilling this requirement with regional facilities. 2. Any required application of the Flood Problem Flow Control Areas facility requirement to replaced impervious surface may be reduced by the Economic and Community Development Department using the Y procedures detailed in Sections 1.4.3 and 1.4.4 of the adjustment process, if the cost of flow control facilities to mitigate all target surfaces exceeds that necessary to mitigate only for new impervious o surface plus new pervious surface and also exceeds 1/3 of the valuation of proposed improvements (including interior improvements)or twice the cost of a facility to mitigate the same surfaces on a new development site,whichever is less. The amount of reduction allowed by this exception shall be limited such that the cost of flow control facilities is at least equal to that necessary to mitigate only for new 1° 2 impervious surface plus new pervious surface, and beyond this amount,is no greater than 1/3 of the c valuation of proposed improvements(including interior improvements)or twice the cost of a facility °' p p p C g p ) h' 'v, to mitigate equivalent surfaces on a new development site,whichever is less. p L d 3. Any required application of the Flood Problem Flow Control Areas facility requirement to replaced M impervious surface may assume existing site conditions as the predeveloped condition for the purposes of matching the developed 100-year peak discharge rate to the predeveloped 100-year peak discharge rate. Cn 1.2.3.2 FLOW CONTROL FACILITY IMPLEMENTATION REQUIREMENTS M 0 Flow control facilities shall be designed and implemented in accordance with the following requirements, M allowances, and flexible compliance provisions: c m Onsite vs. Offsite Implementation All required flow control facilities must be implemented onsite except where the below requirements can be Q met for direct discharge to a regional or shared facility constructed to provide flow control for the proposed project. Regional facilities are typically constructed as part of a basin plan. Shared facilities may be constructed under a City-developed shared facility drainage plan or under an agreement between two or more private developers. These requirements apply to proposed new facilities. The relationship between onsite and offsite implementation for existing regional facilities is described under"Exemptions from Core Requirement 3". City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-32 June 2022 Packet Pg. 76 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE 1. The regional or shared facility must be of adequate size and design to meet the current flow control requirements for the proposed project's increased surface and stormwater runoff. Note: the current flow control requirements are those specified by Core Requirement#3 of this manual unless superseded by other adopted area-specific flow control requirements per Special Requirement#1 (see Section 1.3.1). In some cases where the current flow control requirements differ from those used to originally design the regional or shared facility,additional analysis and possible retrofitting of the facility may be required to ensure adequate size and design. a 2. The regional or shared facility must be fully operational at the time the proposed project is constructed. In the -oa case of a shared facility,the proposed project must comply with the terms and conditions of all contracts, Q agreements,and permits associated with the shared facility. m M 3. The conveyance system between the project site and the regional facility must be approved by city review a staff and meet all the following criteria: M M a) The conveyance system between the project site and the ordinary high water line of the regional facility shall be comprised of manmade conveyance elements(pipes,ditches,outfall protection,etc.)and shall be within public right-of-way or a public or private drainage easement,AND c aM b) The conveyance system shall have adequate capacity per Core Requirement#4,Conveyance System, for the entire contributing drainage area,assuming build-out conditions to current zoning for the L equivalent area portion(defined in Figure 1.2.3.A below)and existing conditions for the remaining area, AND m c) The conveyance system will be adequately stabilized to prevent erosion,assuming the same basin conditions as assumed in Criterion(b),AND d) The conveyance system will not divert flows from or increase flows to an existing wetland or stream sufficient to cause a significant adverse impact. Y In the case of a shared facility,the criteria are the same,except the conveyance system need only have r adequate capacity and erosion protection for buildout of the participating portion of the contributing drainage M area. The participating portion includes those properties that have agreements for use of the shared facility. c M Methods of Analysis and Design c Flow control facilities must be analyzed and designed using a continuous flow simulation method such as °' .y HSPF(Hydrologic Simulation Program—FORTRAN)or the simplified HSPF-based runoff files method. 0 Specifications for use of the runoff files method and associated computer program,Western Washington Hydrologic Model, (WWHM3),are found in Chapter 3. Detailed design specifications for flow control M facilities are found in Chapter 5. d Flow control facilities to be constructed on the Valley floor(below elevation 35 feet)shall take into account M the anticipated Valley floor flood levels in the facility design. The facility is to be designed assuming a freely in draining outlet,but potential onsite flooding and facility performance should be evaluated considering tailwater conditions that can exist due to Valley floor flooding for up to the 100-year flood. This evaluation o shall be completed by routing the 100-year flood through the site storm drain/detention pond system considering high tailwater conditions(100-year flood). Potential onsite flooding needs to be identified and an overflow is to be provided that is capable of conveying the 100-.peak flood flow from the site in accordance with these conditions: m E 1. The overflow shall be directed to and released at the natural location without causing risk or damage to downstream properties,AND +° Q 2. No flooding of traffic lanes will occur,AND 3. No structural flooding will occur. Developments sited on the Valley floor within the FEMA mapped floodplain will also be required to include compensatory flood storage volumes. This volume shall be calculated as 100%of the flood storage volume lost from the 100-year floodplain when comparing pre-and post-development conditions. Compensatory flood City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-33 June 2022 Packet Pg. 77 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE volumes can be added to the on-site flow control facility after the flow control volume has been determined. Storage volumes required for flow control will not be credited toward compensatory flood volumes(see Special Requirement#2, Section 1.3.2). SIZING CREDITS FOR FULLY DISPERSED SURFACES A fully dispersed surface(either impervious or non-native pervious)is one that conforms to the BMP strategy c for"full dispersion" detailed in Appendix C, Section C.2.1. This strategy calls for minimizing the area of onsite Q developed surface relative to native vegetated surface,together with the application of dispersion techniques that utilize the natural retention/detention capacity of the native vegetated surface to mitigate the runoff effects of the developed surfaces.Developed surfaces conforming to this strategy are considered to have a negligible a impact downstream,and therefore,may be modeled as forest and are not subject to the area-specific flow M control facility requirement(Section 1.2.3.1)or the area-specific water quality facility requirement(Section M 1.2.8.1). In order for developed surfaces to qualify as fully dispersed,they must meet the basic criteria listed r_ below and further detailed in Appendix C, Section C.2.1. c Criteria for Fully Dispersed Surfaces c 1. The total area of impervious surface being fully dispersed must be no more than 15%of the total area of +; native vegetated surface being preserved by a clearing limit per KCC 16.82 or by recorded tract,easement, `° or covenant within the same threshold discharge area. The total area of impervious surface plus non- native pervious surface27 being fully dispersed must be no more than 35%of a threshold discharge area. 2. The runoff from a fully dispersed surface must be discharged using one of the following dispersion devices in accordance with the design specifications and maximum area of fully dispersed surface for each device set forth in Appendix C, Section C.2.1: 1 a) Splash blocks oo b) Rock pads M c) Gravel filled trenches d) Sheet flow 3 c M Note: The dispersion device must be situated so as to discharge within the same threshold discharge area of the surface it serves. .y d 3. A native vegetated flowpath segment of at least 100 feet in length(25 feet for sheet flow from a o nonnative pervious surface)must be available along the flowpath that runoff would follow upon discharge +; from a dispersion device listed in Minimum Requirement 2 above.The native vegetated flowpath segment M must meet all of the following criteria: a) The flowpath segment must be over native vegetated surface. b) The flowpath segment must be onsite or an offsite tract or easement area reserved for such Cn dispersion. M c) The slope of the flowpath segment must be no steeper than 15% for any 20-foot reach of the M flowpath segment. pp d) The flowpath segment must be located between the dispersion device and any downstream drainage feature such as a pipe,ditch,stream,river,pond,lake,or wetland. e) The flowpath segments for adjacent dispersion devices must comply with the minimum spacing E requirements in Appendix C, Section C.2.1. These requirements do not allow overlap of flowpath segments,except in the case where sheet flow from a non-native pervious surface overlaps with the flowpath of any dispersion device listed in Minimum Requirement 2 above. In this case,the longer of Q the two overlapping flowpath segments must be extended at least 1 foot for every 3 feet of distance along the most representative path that runoff would travel from the upstream end to the discharge end of the non-native pervious surface. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-34 June 2022 Packet Pg. 78 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE 4. On sites with septic systems,the discharge of runoff from dispersion devices must not be upgradient of the drainfield. This requirement may be waived by city review staff if site topography clearly prohibits flows from intersecting the drainfield. 5. The dispersion of runoff must not create flooding or erosion impacts as determined by city review staff.If runoff is proposed to be discharged toward a landslide hazard area,erosion hazard area,or steep slope hazard area(i.e., slopes steeper than 20%),city review staff may require the applicant to have the proposal evaluated by a geotechnical engineer or engineering geologist. 0. 0 SIZING CREDITS FOR USE OF FLOW CONTROL BMPS Q 0 Projects that implement flow control BMPs as detailed in Core Requirement 9 and Appendix C,whether 13 a required or optional,may use the flow control BMP modeling credits as described and allowed in Section M 1.2.9.4 and Table 1.2.9.A. M c M MITIGATION OF TARGET SURFACES THAT BYPASS FACILITY c On some sites,topography may make it difficult or costly to collect all target surface runoff for discharge to the onsite flow control facility.Therefore, some project runoff subject to flow control may bypass required onsite L flow control facilities provided that all of the following conditions are met: m M 1. The point of convergence for runoff discharged from the bypassed target surfaces and from the project's flow control facility must be within a quarter-mile downstream28 of the facility's project site discharge point,AND 2.

Compensatory mitigation by a flow control facility must be provided so that the net effect at the point of convergence downstream is the same with or without the bypass.This mitigation may be waived if the C L existing site conditions 100-year peak discharge from the area of bypassed target surfaces is increased by +; no more than 0.1 cfs(modeled using 1 hour time steps)or no more than 0.15 cfs(modeled using 15 minute M time steps)and flow control BMPs as detailed in Appendix C are applied to all impervious surfaces within the area of bypassed target surfaces. One or combination of the following methods may be used to provide compensatory mitigation by a flow control facility subject to permission/approvals from other parties as deemed necessary by Economic and Community Development: Cn M L a) Design the project's flow control facility or retrofit an existing offsite flow control facility as needed to achieve the desired effect at the point of convergence,OR m b) Design the project's flow control facility or provide/retrofit an offsite flow control facility to mitigate an existing developed area(either onsite or offsite)that has runoff characteristics(i.e.,peak flow and E volume)equivalent to those of the bypassed target surfaces but is currently not mitigated or required to 0 be mitigated to the same flow control performance requirement as the bypassed target surfaces. Q BYPASS OF RUNOFF FROM NON-TARGET SURFACES IF the existing 100-year peak flow rate from any upstream offsite area(not targeted for mitigation)is greater than 50%of the 100-year developed peak flow rate(undetained)for the area that must be mitigated,THEN the City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-35 June 2022 Packet Pg. 79 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE runoff from the offsite area must bypass onsite flow control facilities. The bypass of offsite runoff must be designed so as to achieve all of the following: 1. Any existing contribution of flows to an onsite wetland must be maintained,AND 2. Offsite flows that are naturally attenuated by the project site under predeveloped conditions must remain attenuated,either by natural means or by providing additional onsite detention so that peak flows do not increase,AND a 3. Offsite flows that are dispersed or unconcentrated on the project site under predeveloped conditions must -ca be discharged in a safe manner as described in Core Requirement#1 under"Discharge Requirements."

Runoff from both the target surface area being traded and the flow control facility must converge prior to discharge of the runoff from the target surface area being traded onto private property without an easement 3 or through any area subject to erosion,AND N 3. The net effect in terms of flow control at the point of convergence downstream must be the same with or without the mitigation trade,AND Y T oo 4. The undetained runoff from the target surface area being traded must not create a significant adverse M impact to downstream drainage systems,salmonid habitat,or properties prior to convergence with runoff from the flow control facility. c M 5. The existing non-targeted surface area that is mitigated for purposes of required flow control must be documented and tracked by city review staff.Documentation should clarify that future redevelopment of a� this existing non-targeted area used for the mitigation trade will incur additional flow control mitigation requirements if the redevelopment exceeds Core Requirement#3 thresholds.

This program is critical to the City to ensure that the water supply obtained from groundwater is maintained at the highest quantity and quality levels possible. Protection of quantity and quality of M M groundwater is also important to the City and regional interests due to the linkage between groundwater and r- surface water. Baseflow represents a high percentage of streamflow in the dry summer months in the Puget Sound Region. .N To work towards protection of the groundwater resource,the City of Kent,Covington Water District,and C Water District 111 have designated and mapped"Wellhead Protection Areas". These areas are shown on the Soils/Wellhead Area Map included with this manual in the cover pocket. The City of Kent requires that any M project located within Wellhead Protection Areas and subject to the requirements of this manual enhance or maintain groundwater recharge quantity and quality to the maximum extent possible.

The spill control device should be installed upstream of any onsite water quality or flow control facility.Note that in addition to this spill control requirement to protect offsite and natural drainage systems,there are other spill control requirements in this manual for discharges to certain water quality facilities and all infiltration facilities(see the Cn design criteria for water quality facilities in Chapter 6 and the general requirements for infiltration facilities in a Section 5.2). The application of these requirements must be such that all stated intents are satisfied. If no 0 facilities are present,then the spill control device must be installed upstream from the final discharge point to pMp the downstream drainage system. c m E Q 20 Natural onsite drainage feature means a natural swale,channel,stream,closed depression,wetland,or lake. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-41 June 2022 Packet Pg. 85 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE Composition Where feasible,conveyance systems shall be constructed of vegetation-lined channels,as opposed to pipe systems. Vegetative channels shall generally be considered feasible if all of these conditions are present: 1. The channel gradient generally does not exceed five percent,AND 2. No modifications to currently adopted standard roadway cross-sections in the Kent Design and Construction Standards are necessitated by the channel,AND a 3. The channel will be accessible for maintenance(see Section 1.2.6),AND Q 4. The channel will not be subject to erosion. Exceptions:The following are exceptions to the requirement for vegetative channels: a • Conveyance systems proposed under roadways,driveways,or parking areas M M • Conveyance systems proposed between houses in urban-zoned plats and short plats r_ • Conveyance systems conveying roof runoff only. .N d Outfalls d An outfall is defined as a point where collected and concentrated surface and stormwater runoff is discharged M from a pipe system or culvert. Energy Dissipation: At a minimum,rock erosion protection is required at outfalls from all drainage systems r_ and elements except where city review staff determines that erosion protection is being provided by other j means or is not needed. Details on outfall structures are included in Section 4.2.2. d New Point Discharges Over Steep Slopes/Landslide Hazard Areas: Proposed outfalls that will discharge 1 runoff in a location where the natural(existing)discharge is unconcentrated over a slope steeper than 15%and oo greater than 20 feet in height,or discharge runoff through a designated steep slope hazard area must meet the M following criteria: M 1. A tightline conveyance system must be constructed to convey the runoff to the bottom of the slope c unless other measures are approved by city review staff based on an evaluation/report by a licensed geotechnical engineer. 2. The geotechnical analysis must consider cumulative impacts from the project and surrounding areas •y under full built-out conditions. C 3. Tightline systems must be designed so that existing baseflow conditions are not significantly changed and adequate energy dissipation is provided at the bottom of the slope. M 4. Where alternative measures(e.g.,dispersal trench)to the tightline system are approved upstream of a landslide hazard area or steep slope hazard area,they may be placed no closer than 50 feet from the top of the hazard area slope based on an evaluation/report by a licensed geotechnical engineer. Cn Outfalls to the Green River New stormwater outfalls or modifications to existing stormwater outfalls discharging to the Green River are a allowed only through the adjustment process. These outfalls must comply with requirements of the Green m River Pump Operations Procedure Plan,which establishes storage volumes and release rate criteria for developments proposing to construct or modify outfalls. Copies of the plan are available from the city of Kent. E Interflow and Interception Interflow is near-surface groundwater that moves laterally through the soil horizon following the hydraulic gradient of underlying relatively impermeable soils. When interflow is expressed on the surface,it is termed a Q spring or seepage. Any significant springs or seepage areas that impact a roadway or structure proposed by the project must be intercepted and directed into a conveyance system. Where roadways may impede the passage of interflow to downstream wetlands or streams,provision for passage of unconcentrated flows must be made. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-42 June 2022 Packet Pg. 86 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE Pump Systems Pump systems may be used to convey water from one location or elevation to another within the project site provided they meet the design criteria specified for such systems in Section 4.2.3 and will be privately owned and maintained. Pump systems that discharge flows from the project site that would not have discharged by gravity flow under existing site conditions will require an approved adjustment to Core Requirement#1 (see Section 1.4, "Adjustment Process"). These pump systems will be considered only when they are necessary to prevent a creation or aggravation of a flooding or erosion problem as specified in Section 1.2.2. Pump systems -ca discharging to the Green River must also comply with the Green River Pump Operations Procedure Plan. Q M 1.2.5 CORE REQUIREMENT #5: EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL CL All proposed projects that will clear,grade,or otherwise disturb the site must provide erosion and sediment controls to prevent,to the maximum extent possible,the transport of sediment from the project site to downstream M R drainage facilities,water resources,and adjacent properties.All proposed projects that will conduct construction activities onsite or offsite must provide stormwater pollution prevention and spill controls to prevent,reduce, a� e or eliminate the discharge of pollutants to onsite or adjacent stormwater systems or watercourses.To prevent C Q sediment transport,Erosion and Sediment Control(ESC)measures and Stormwater Pollution Prevention and Spill Control(SWPPS)measures that are appropriate to the project site must be applied through a comprehensive Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention(CSWPP)plan as described in Sections 1.2.5.1 and 1.2.5.3 and shall perform as described in Section 1.2.5.2. In addition,these measures,both temporary and permanent,shall be implemented consistent with the requirements in Section 1.2.5.3 that apply to the proposed project. Intent: c d • To prevent the transport of sediment and other impacts, like increased runoff,related to land disturbing 1 activities. Erosion of disturbed areas on construction sites can result in excessive sediment transport to oo adjacent properties and to surface waters. This sediment can result in major adverse impacts, such as M flooding from obstructed drainage ways, smothering of salmonid spawning beds,algal blooms in lakes, and exceedances of state water quality standards for turbidity. These impacts can also result from the increased runoff generated by land disturbing activities on construction sites. M • To prevent,reduce,or eliminate the discharge of pollutants to onsite or adjacent stormwater systems or a� watercourses from construction-related activities such as materials delivery and storage,onsite y equipment fueling and maintenance,demolition of existing buildings and disposition of demolition p materials and other waste,and concrete handling,washout and disposal. °r M 1.2.5.1 CSWPP MEASURES M Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention(CSWPP)measures include Erosion and Sediment Control 0 (ESC)measures and Stormwater Pollution Prevention and Spill(SWPPS)measures. Cn M The following ESC measures shall be provided as specified below and as further detailed in the Erosion and p` Sediment Control(ESC)Standards, adopted as Appendix D: m 1. Clearing Limits: Prior to any site clearing or grading,areas to remain undisturbed during project construction shall be delineated. At a minimum,clearing limit delineation flagging shall be provided E at the edges of all stream,lake,or wetland buffers. 2. Cover Measures: Temporary and permanent cover measures shall be provided when necessary to protect disturbed areas. Temporary cover shall be installed if an area is to remain unworked for more Q than seven days during the dry season(May 1 to September 30)or for more than two days during the wet season(October 1 to April 30),unless otherwise determined by the City. Any area to remain unworked for more than 30 days shall be seeded or sodded,unless the City determines that winter weather makes vegetation establishment unfeasible. During the wet season,slopes and stockpiles 3HJV or steeper with more than 10 feet of vertical relief shall be covered if they are to remain City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 143 June 2022 Packet Pg. 87 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE unworked for more than 12 hours. The intent of these measures is to prevent erosion by having as much area as possible covered during any period of precipitation. 3. Perimeter Protection: When necessary,perimeter protection to filter sediment from sheet flow shall be provided downstream of all disturbed areas. Perimeter protection includes the use of vegetated strips,as well as more conventional constructed measures such as silt fences. Such protection shall be installed prior to upstream grading. 4. Traffic Area Stabilization: Unsurfaced entrances,roads, and parking areas used by construction Q• 0 traffic shall be stabilized to minimize erosion and tracking of sediment offsite. 'D Q 5. Sediment Retention: Surface water collected from disturbed areas of the site shall be routed through a sediment pond or trap prior to release from the site. This does not apply to areas at the perimeter of -Oa the site small enough to be treated solely with perimeter protection. Sediment retention facilities shall C be installed prior to grading any contributing area. 6. Surface Water Controls: Surface water controls shall be installed to intercept all surface water from disturbed areas, convey it to a sediment pond or trap,and discharge it downstream of any disturbed areas. However,areas at the perimeter of the site small enough to be treated solely with perimeter M protection do not require surface water controls. Significant sources of upstream surface water that drain onto disturbed areas shall be intercepted and conveyed to a stabilized discharge point L downstream of the disturbed areas. Surface water controls shall be installed concurrently with or W immediately following rough grading. m 7. Dust Control: Preventative measures to minimize wind transport of soil shall be implemented when a traffic hazard may be created or when sediment transported by wind is likely to be deposited in water 3 resources. c 8. Dewatering Control: The water resulting from construction site de-watering activities must be treated Y prior to discharge or disposed of as specified. T 9. Flow Control: Surface water from disturbed areas must be routed through the project's onsite flow M control facility or other provisions must be made to prevent increases in the existing site conditions 2- year and 10-year runoff peaks discharging from the project site during construction(flow control BMP 3 areas(existing or proposed)shall not be used for this purpose). 2 10. Control Pollutants: Stormwater pollution prevention(SWPPS)measures are required to prevent, c reduce,or eliminate the discharge of pollutants to onsite or adjacent stormwater systems or y watercourses from construction-related activities such as materials delivery and storage,onsite C equipment fueling and maintenance,demolition of existing buildings and disposition of demolition materials and other waste, and concrete handling,washout and disposal. Section D.2.2 describes BMPs M specific to this purpose; additionally,several of the ESC BMPs described herein are applicable. 11. Protect Existing and Proposed Flow Control BMPs: Sedimentation and soil compaction reduce the infiltration capacity of native and engineered soils. Protection measures shall be applied/installed and Cn maintained so as to prevent adverse impacts to existing flow control BMPs and areas of proposed flow control BMPs for the project. Adverse impacts can prompt the requirement to restore or replace affected BMPs. M m 12. Maintain BMPs:Protection measures shall be maintained to assure continued performance of their intended function,to prevent adverse impacts to existing flow control BMPs and areas of proposed flow control BMPs,and protect other disturbed areas of the project. E 13. Manage the Project: Coordination and timing of site development activities relative to ESC concerns, and timely inspection,maintenance and update of protective measures are necessary to effectively Q manage the project and assure the success of protective ESC and SWPPS design and implementation. SWPPS MEASURES City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-44 June 2022 Packet Pg. 88 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE Each of the following categories of SWPPS measures must be considered for application to the project site as detailed in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention and Spill Control(SWPPS)Standards. The SWPPS standards are located in the Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention Standards adopted as Appendix D of this manual: • Follow effective pollutant handling and disposal procedures. • Provide cover and containment for materials, fuel and other pollutants. a • Manage the project site to maximize pollutant control and minimize pollutant sources. C • Protect from spills and drips of petroleum products and other pollutants. Q m • Avoid over application or untimely application of chemicals and fertilizers. -Ma a • Prevent or treat contamination of stormwater runoff by pH modifying sources. M M c M 1.2.5.2 CSWPP PERFORMANCE AND COMPLIANCE PROVISIONS The changing conditions typical of construction sites call for frequent field adjustments of existing ESC and SWPPS measures or additional ESC and SWPPS measures in order to meet required performance. In some cases, strict adherence to specified measures may not be necessary or practicable based on site conditions or project type. In other cases,immediate action may be needed to avoid severe impacts. Therefore,careful attention must be paid to ESC and SWPPS performance and compliance in accordance with the following provisions: `t A. CSWPP Supervisor For projects in Targeted or Full Project Drainage Review, or projects in Directed Drainage Review as `1 determined by city review staff,the applicant must designate a CSWPP supervisor who shall be oo responsible for the performance,maintenance,and review of ESC and SWPPS measures and for compliance with all permit conditions relating to CSWPP as described in the CSWPP Standards. For projects that disturb one acre or more of land,the CSWPP supervisor must be a Certified Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control(see www.cpesc.net for more information)or a Certified Erosion M and Sediment Control Lead whose certification is recognized by the City. The City may also require a certified ESC professional for sites smaller than one acre of disturbance if the City determines that onsite aM .y ESC measures are inadequately installed,located,or maintained. C L d For larger,more sensitive sites,the City may require a certified ESC professional with several years of experience in construction supervision/inspection and a background in geology,soil science,or agronomy(See Appendix D,Section D.2.3.1 for more information). B. Monitoring Performance Cn The CSWPP supervisor shall have a turbidity meter onsite and shall use it to monitor surface and storm 0 water discharges from the project site and into onsite wetlands, streams,or lakes whenever runoff occurs M from onsite activities and during storm events. If the project site is subject to a NPDES general permit for construction issued by the Washington State Department of Ecology(Ecology),then the project must comply with the monitoring requirements of that permit. E The CSWPP supervisor shall also use the specific SWPPS control BMP procedures for monitoring surface and stormwater discharge for pollutants and acceptable discharge levels. The CSWPP supervisor Q shall keep logs as required by the procedures of all measurements taken onsite and make them available to the City on request. C. ESC Performance City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-45 June 2022 Packet Pg. 89 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE The above ESC measures shall be applied/installed and maintained so as to prevent,to the maximum extent possible,the transport of sediment from the project site to downstream drainage systems or surface waters or into onsite wetlands, streams,or lakes. This performance is intended to be achieved through proper selection,installation,and operation of the above ESC measures as detailed in the CSWPP Standards(detached Appendix D)and approved by the City. However,the City may determine at any time during construction that such approved measures are not sufficient and additional action is required based on one of the following criteria: a 1. IF a turbidity test of surface and storm water discharges leaving the project site is greater than the C benchmark value of 25 NTU(nephelometric turbidity units) set by the Washington State Department Q of Ecology,but less than 250 NTU,the CSWPP Supervisor shall do all of the following: , M a) Review the ESC plan for compliance and make appropriate revisions within 7 days of a the discharge that exceeded the benchmark of 25 NTU,AND M M b) Fully implement and maintain appropriate ESC measures as soon as possible,AND M c) Document ESC implementation and maintenance in the site log book. c 2. IF a turbidity test of surface or storm water discharging to wetlands, streams,or lakes indicates a •N turbidity level greater than 5 NTU above background when the background turbidity is 50 NTU p or less,or 10%above background when the background turbidity is greater than 50 NTU,then corrective actions and/or additional measures beyond those specified in Section 1.2.5.1 shall be M implemented as deemed necessary by the City inspector or onsite CSWPP supervisor. 3. IF discharge turbidity is 250 NTU or greater,the CSWPP Supervisor shall do all of the following: a) Notify the City by telephone,AND c d Notify the WA State Department of Ecology as required by NPDES Construction Stormwater Y General Permit, as applicable,AND r oo b) Review the ESC plan for compliance and make appropriate revisions within 7 days of the discharge that exceeded the benchmark of 25 NTU,AND 3 c) Fully implement and maintain appropriate ESC measures as soon as possible but no later than r- 10 days after the discharge that exceeded the benchmark,AND c d) Document ESC implementation and maintenance in the site log book.AND aM .y d e) Continue to sample discharges until turbidity is 25 NTU or lower,or the turbidity is no more than c 10%over background turbidity. +; M 4. IF the City determines that the condition of the construction site poses a hazard to adjacent property or may adversely impact drainage facilities or water resources,THEN additional 't measures beyond those specified in Section 1.2.5.1 may be required by the City. in M D. SWPPS Performance o M SWPPS measures shall be applied/installed and maintained so as to prevent,reduce,or eliminate the discharge of pollutants to onsite or adjacent stormwater systems or watercourses or onto adjacent properties. This performance is intended to be achieved through proper selection,installation,and operation of the above SWPPS measures as detailed in the CSWPP Standards(detached Appendix D) and approved by the City. However,the CSWPP supervisor designated per Section 1.2.5.2.A or the City c�a may determine at any time during construction that such approved measures are not sufficient and Q additional action is required based on the criteria described in the specific SWPPS BMP standard and/or conditions of an approved adjustment: City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-46 June 2022 Packet Pg. 90 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE E. Flexible Compliance Some projects may meet the intent of Core Requirement#5 while varying from specific CSWPP requirements contained here and in the CSWPP Standards. If a project is designed and constructed such that it meets the intent of this core requirement,the City may determine that strict adherence to a specific ESC requirement is unnecessary; an approved adjustment(see Section 1.4)is not required in these circumstances. Certain types of projects are particularly suited to warrant this greater level of flexibility; for instance,projects on relatively flat,well drained soils,projects that are constructed in closed 0. 0 depressions,or projects that only disturb a small percentage of a forested site may meet the intent of this Q requirement with very few ESC measures. However, SWPPS requirements may actually be emphasized on well-drained soils,particularly in groundwater or well-protection protection areas,or in close proximity to water bodies.More information on intent and general ESC principles is contained in the ESC Standards. a F. Roads and Utilities M c M Road and utility projects often pose difficult erosion control challenges because they frequently cross surface waters and are long and narrow with limited area available to treat and store sediment-laden water. a� Because of these factors,road and utility projects are allowed greater flexibility in meeting the intent of Core Requirement#5 as described in the CSWPP Standards. Projects that pose a very low risk of erosion or sediment transport due to site conditions or project scope may also warrant greater flexibility. G. Alternative and Experimental Measures All measures proposed for erosion and sediment control shall conform to the details and specifications in the CSWPP Standards unless an alternative is approved by the City,and if the alternative is a new technology,it must also be approved through Ecology's CTAPE program(see "Alternative and Y Experimental Measures" in the CSWPP Standards,detached Appendix D). T 00 r M 1.2.5.3 CSWPP IMPLEMENTATION REQUIREMENTS Proposed projects must identify, install, and maintain required erosion and sediment control and M stormwater pollution prevention and spill control measures consistent with the following requirements: c A. CSWPP Plan y as As specified in Chapter 2,all proposed projects must submit a CSWPP plan for implementing CSWPP L measures. The CSWPP plan is comprised of the ESC plan and the SWPPS plan. The ESC plan must show the location and details of all ESC measures as specified in Chapter 2 and the CSWPP Standards ?� and shall include a CSWPP report,which contains additional directions and supporting information like a detailed construction sequence as proposed by the design engineer and any calculations or information necessary to size ESC measures and demonstrate compliance with Core Requirement#5. The CSWPP Cn plan shall also contain plan notes that outline specific permit conditions as outlined in Appendix D Section D.4.2 Standard ESC and SWPPS Plan Notes. The City may require large,complex projects to phase construction and to submit multiple ESC plans for the different stages of construction. New CSWPP plans are not required for changes that are necessary during construction,unless required by the City inspector. m B. Wet Season Construction During the wet season(October 1 to April 30),any site with exposed soils shall be subject to the"Wet Season Requirements"contained in the ESC Standards. In addition to the ESC cover measures;these Q provisions include covering any newly seeded areas with mulch and seeding as much disturbed area as possible during the first week of October to provide grass cover for the wet season. Other ESC measures such as portable detention tanks and portable sand filters may be required for use during the wet season. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 147 June 2022 Packet Pg. 91 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE C. Construction within Streams,Lakes, or Wetlands and Buffers Any construction that will result in disturbed areas on or within a stream or associated buffer,within a wetland or associated buffer,or within 50 feet of a lake shall be subject to the Kent city code section 11.06 "Critical Areas"as well as the"Critical Area Restrictions"contained in the CSWPP Standards. These provisions include phasing the project whenever possible so that construction in these areas is limited to the dry season. a D. Maintenance -°a All ESC and SWPPS measures shall be maintained and reviewed on a regular basis as prescribed in the Q CSWPP Standards. M a E. Final Stabilization M Prior to obtaining final construction approval,the site shall be stabilized, structural ESC and SWPPS r_ measures(such as silt fences, sediment traps,and concrete waste collection pits)shall be removed,and drainage facilities shall be cleaned as specified in the CSWPP Standards.A separate ESC plan describing final stabilization may be required by the City prior to implementation. C L F. Consideration of Other Required Permits Consideration should be given to the requirements and conditions that may be applied by other agencies as part of other permits required for land-disturbing activities. In particular,the following permits may be required and should be considered when implementing CSWPP measures: • A NPDES General Permit for Construction(pursuant to the Washington State Department of Ecology's Construction General Permit for Stormwater)is required for projects that will disturb one or Y more acres for purposes of constructing or allowing for construction of a development,or projects T disturbing less than one acre that are part of a larger common plan of sale21 that will ultimately disturb oo one or more acres. c M 2 c aM .y d C L d M d V Cn M L M m C E t V 21 Common plan of development or sale means a site where multiple separate and distinct construction activities may take place at different times or on different schedules,but still under a single plan. Examples include: 1)phased projects and projects with multiple filings or lots, Q even if the separate phases or filings/lots will be constructed under separate contract or by separate owners(e.g.a development where lots are sold to separate builders);2)a development plan that may be phased over multiple years,but is still under a consistent plan for long-term development;and 3)projects in a contiguous area that may be unrelated but still under the same contract,such as construction of a building extension and a new parking lot at the same facility. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-48 June 2022 Packet Pg. 92 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE 1.2.6 CORE REQUIREMENT #6: MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS R Maintenance and operation of all drainage facilities is the responsibility of the applicant or property owner, except those facilities for which Kent is granted an easement,tract, or right-of-way and officially assumes e maintenance and operation as described below. a Intent: To ensure that the maintenance responsibility for drainage facilities is clearly assigned and that these facilities will be properly maintained and operated in perpetuity. c Q Drainage Facilities to be Maintained by the City of Kent Kent will assume maintenance and operation22 of conveyance systems within improved public road rights-of- C way and flow control and water quality facilities if these systems/facilities are associated with a residential subdivision with ten or more lots served by a public street,or a non-residential short plat or long plat subdivision(i.e.,commercial,industrial,etc.). Kent will not assume maintenance and operation of stormwater 2 facilities associated with residential subdivisions with 9 or less lots served by a private street or stormwater c facilities associated with commercial or industrial developments located on single parcels. N d Kent will not assume maintenance responsibility for underground detention vaults except as described in L section 1.2.3,Core Requirement#3. M Kent will assume maintenance and operation of these facilities two years after final construction approval by the Public Works and Economic and Community Development departments and an inspection by the City to ensure the facilities have been properly maintained and are operating as designed. 3 Flow control and water quality facilities and flow control BMP devices to be maintained and operated by Kent must be located in a tract or right-of-way dedicated to Kent. Required vegetated flow paths for full Y dispersion and basic dispersion BMPs require a recorded declaration of covenant that stipulates restrictions on use AND shall be located in an easement that includes provisions for access and maintenance. City of o Kent maintenance of these vegetated flow paths will be limited to their FCBMP functionality. All other maintenance shall remain the responsibility of the owner(s). Access roads serving these facilities must also be i located in the tract or right-of-way and must be connected to an improved public road right-of-way. c M 2 Conveyance systems to be maintained and operated by Kent must be located in a drainage easement,tract,or c right-of-way granted to Kent. Note:Kent does not normally assume maintenance responsibility for conveyance •y systems which are outside of improved public road right-of-way. p L Exceptions to the above will be made on a case-by-case basis as determined by the Director. d Drainage Facilities to be Maintained by Private Parties All privately maintained drainage facilities must be maintained as specified in Appendix A,"Maintenance Cn Requirements for Flow Control,Conveyance,and WQ Facilities,"and as further prescribed in Chapter 6 for water quality facilities unless otherwise approved by city review staff. A copy of the Operation and p` Maintenance Manual submitted as part of the permit application(see Section 2.3.1)shall be retained on site m and shall be transferred with the property to the new owner. A log of maintenance activity indicating when cleaning occurred and where waste was disposed of shall also be kept by the owner and be available for inspection by the City. E All privately maintained flow control BMPs must be maintained as specified in the site/lot's declaration of covenant and grant of easement per Section 1.2.9. Q 22 Kent does not assume maintenance of lot drainage systems or drainage stub-outs serving single-family residential lot downspout,footing,or yard drains,nor does Kent assume maintenance of those water quality facilities installed and integrated into site landscaping. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-49 June 2022 Packet Pg. 93 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE A"Declaration of Stormwater Facility Maintenance Covenant"must be completed for all private developments. Stormwater covenant to be obtained on COK website or from plan review staff.. The timing of completion of this agreement varies depending on the type of development. For stormwater facilities serving more than one single family residential unit in a short plat serving less than four lots,the agreement shall be completed prior to plat recording. For all other developments or redevelopments(including commercial, industrial,multifamily development or redevelopment or single family residential building),the agreement shall be completed prior to engineering plan approval. If there is a shared drainage system involved with the Q• 0 development,the covenant must provide clear language on the ownership and maintenance responsibilities of Q each componant of the drainage system. The responsibilities detailed in the document may be assumed by a homeowners association or other legal organization as approved by the City of Kent. M 13 a Whenever a flow control or water quality facility or flow control BMP is proposed to be located on a parcel separate from the parcel or parcels containing the target surfaces mitigated by the facility or BMP, provisions must be made to ensure that the owner or owners of the target surfaces have a perpetual right to M operate and maintain the facility.This may be done either by recording an easement granting this right to the owner(s)of the target surfaces,or by conveying the land on which the facility sits(or an interest therein)to a� the owner(s)of target surfaces. c L Kent may inspect all privately maintained drainage facilities for compliance with these requirements. If M property owner(s)fail to maintain their facilities to acceptable standards,the City may issue a written notice specifying the required remedial actions and requiring a schedule for timely completion of the actions. If these actions are not performed in a timely manner,the City may enter the property to perform the actions needed and bill the property owner(s)for the cost of the actions. In the event a hazard to public safety exists,the City j may perform remedial actions without written notice. d Y If the proposed project is a residential subdivision development,all privately maintained conveyance systems or other drainage facilities,which convey flows through private property,must be located in a drainage 00 easement dedicated to convey surface and stormwater. Individual owners of the properties containing such easements must maintain the drainage facilities through their property. The legal instrument creating drainage a easements on private property must contain language that requires a private property owner to obtain written approval from Kent prior to removing vegetation(except by routine mowing)from any drainage easement containing open,vegetated drainage facilities(such as swales,channels,ditches,ponds,etc.).

Other requirements include the following: T oo • Core Requirement#4: Conveyance System,Spill Control Provisions, Section 1.2.4—This provision M generally applies whenever a project constructs or replaces onsite conveyance system elements that receive runoff from pollution generating impervious surfaces. The provision requires that runoff from such 3 impervious surfaces be routed through a spill control device prior to discharge from the project site or into M a natural onsite drainage feature. c • Core Requirement#4: Conveyance System,Groundwater Protection, Section 1.2.4 —This provision y requires that ditches/channels be lined as needed to reduce the risk of groundwater contamination when p they convey runoff from pollution generating impervious surfaces that comes into direct contact with an outwash soil. M • Special Requirement#4: Source Control, Section 1.3.4—This requirement applies water quality source controls from the King County Stormwater Pollution Prevention Manual to those projects proposing to commercial,industrial,and multifamily projects. C j • Special Requirement#5: Oil Control, Section 1.3.5—This requirement applies special oil controls to those a projects proposing to develop or redevelop a high-use site. M m ❑ EXEMPTIONS FROM CORE REQUIREMENT#8 E There are four possible exemptions from the requirement to provide a formal water quality facility per Core Requirement#8: Q 1. Surface Area Exemption A proposed non-redevelopment project or any threshold discharge area within the site of such a project is exempt if it meets all of the following criteria: a) Less than 5,000 square feet of new plus replaced PGIS will be created,AND City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-52 June 2022 Packet Pg. 96 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIRE b) Less than 3/4 acre of new PGPS will be added. 2.

These WQ treatment areas are listed below,and their requirements and exceptions are detailed in c the following subsections: Q A. Basic WQ Treatment Areas a B. Enhanced Basic WQ Treatment Areas M C. Sensitive Lake WQ Treatment Areas Intent: The City of Kent contains numerous sensitive and significant water resources. The City has determined that the minimum level of treatment adequate to prevent further degradation of water quality, N and to maintain the aquatic health of current fisheries,is that provided by the Enhanced Basic Water p Quality Treatment Areas Menu. The Director has the option to require additional treatment,or treatment of `m existing impervious areas,when necessary to meet water quality standards and goals(see Reference 8-H). M ❑ BASIC WQ TREATMENT AREAS The Basic WQ Treatment Areas menu is applied where a general,cost-effective level of treatment is 3 adequate and where more intensive,targeted pollutant removal is not needed to protect receiving bodies. In the City of Kent,the only acceptable use of the Basic WQ Treatment Areas menu is for redevelopment Y projects that are subject to Core Requirement#8 and where approved on a project-specific basis by the Director.Under no circumstances shall a level of treatment less than what currently exists on a oo redevelopment site be permitted. For example,if a site already has an enhanced-basic WQ facility, it cannot be replaced by a basic WQ facility. M Treatment Goals and Options The treatment goal for facility options in the Basic WQ Treatment Areas menu is 80%removal of total c suspended solids(TSS)for flows or volumes up to and including the WQ design flow or volume for a aM typical rainfall year,assuming typical pollutant concentrations in urban runoff24. TSS is the general C performance indicator for basic water quality protection because it is the most obvious pollutant of concern. TSS is not a single pollutant—it is a general term for a highly variable mixture of solid pollutants with variable particle size and particle density distributions,and to one degree or another containing a variety of sorbed dissolvable pollutants. The basic WQ Treatment Areas menu includes facilities such as wetponds, combined detention/wetponds,biofiltration swales,vegetated filter strips and sand filters. See 't Chapter 6 for specific facility options and designs. vn Intent M L The Basic WQ menu is intended to be applied to both stormwater discharges that drain to surface waters m and those that infiltrate into soils that do not provide adequate groundwater protection(see Exemptions 3 14 and 4 from Core Requirement#8). m E 24 The influent concentration range for demonstrated pollutant removal is 100 to 200 mg/L. For influent concentrations lower than 100mg/l Q the effluent goal is equal to or less than 20 mg/l.For influent concentrations greater than 200 mg/l,the goal is greater than 80%TSS removal. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-55 June 2022 Packet Pg. 99 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIREME ❑ ENHANCED BASIC WQ TREATMENT AREAS The treatment goal for facility options in the Enhanced Basic WQ menu is to accomplish better removal of heavy metals and potentially other toxic materials than can be achieved by basic treatment, while still meeting the basic treatment goal of 80%TSS removal. The specific target performance is> 30%reduction of dissolved copper and>60%removal of dissolved zinc. Dissolved copper and zinc are a indicators of a wider range of metals typically found in urban runoff that are potentially toxic to fish and -0a other aquatic life. The Enhanced Basic WQ menu includes options for use of a basic-sized stormwater Q wetland,a large sand filter,or a combination of two facilities in series. See Chapter 6 for specific facility 4) options and designs.Additional facility designs may appear in Reference 14 in the future. a Intent M M Facility options in the Enhanced Basic WQ menu are intended to remove more metals than expected from r_ those in the Basic WQ menu. Lower metal concentrations reduce the risk to fish from exposure to both 2 chronic and acute toxic concentrations of metals such as copper and zinc,and very low concentration copper deleterious olfactory effects. As the toxicity of metals depends on their concentration,this standard N is most effective for project sites with a larger proportion of pollution generating impervious surface like p roadways and medium to high density subdivisions. The Enhanced Basic WQ menu is intended to apply to all such areas in Kent unless otherwise denoted on the Water Quality Applications Map. M Target Surfaces Facilities in Enhanced Basic WQ Treatment Areas must treat(either directly or in effect)the runoff from the following target surfaces within the threshold discharge area for which the facility is required: Y 1. New PGIS that is not fully dispersed per the Criteria for Fully Dispersed Surfaces in Core r Requirement#3,or not farmland dispersed as specified in Appendix C. For individual lots within °r° residential subdivision projects,the extent of new PGIS shall be assumed based on expected driveway size as approved by city review staff. c 2. New PGPS that is not fully dispersed and from which there will be a concentrated surface discharge M in a natural channel or man-made conveyance system from the site, or not farmland dispersed as specified in Appendix C. For individual lots within residential subdivision projects,the extent of aM .y new pervious surface shall be assumed to be the entire lot area,except the assumed impervious C portion as specified in Chapter 3 and any portion in which native conditions are preserved by covenant,tract, or easement. M 3. Existing impervious surface added since January 8,2001 that is not fully dispersed,or not farmland dispersed as specified in Appendix C, and not yet mitigated with a City-approved water quality facility or flow control BMP. Note:January 8, 2001 is the effective date of the ESA 4(d) 0 Rule for Puget Sound Chinook salmon. Cn M 4. Replaced PGIS that is not fully dispersed or not farmland dispersed as specified in Appendix C on p` a non-redevelopment project. m 5. Replaced PGIS that is not fully dispersed on a transportation redevelopment project in which new impervious surface is 5,000 square feet or more and totals 50%or more of the existing impervious surface within the project limits. E 6. Replaced PGIS that is not fully dispersed, or not farmland dispersed as specified in Appendix C, +° on a parcel redevelopment project in which the total of new plus replaced impervious surface is Q 5,000 square feet or more and whose valuation of proposed improvements(including interior improvements and excluding required mitigation improvements)exceeds 50%of the assessed value of. (a)the existing site improvements on commercial or industrial projects or(b)the existing site improvements on other projects,whichever applies. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-56 June 2022 Packet Pg. 100 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIREME Exceptions The following exceptions apply only in Enhanced Basic WQ Treatment Areas: 1. The facility requirement in Enhanced Basic WQ Treatment Areas as applied to target PGPS may be waived for projects where city review staff approves a landscape managementplan (LMP)that controls solids,pesticides,fertilizers,and other erodible or leachable materials leaving the site. LMP requirements can be found in Reference Section 4-C.LMP submittal requirements are given in a Section 2.3.1.5. Q 2. The Enhanced Basic WQ menu may be reduced to the Basic WQ menu for treatment of any runoff that is infiltrated per the standards of Section 5.2. This exception is not allowed where -Ma infiltrating into soils that do not meet the groundwater protection standards described in Section 5.2.1,if within one-quarter-mile of a fresh water designated for aquatic life use or that has an M existing aquatic life use. M c ❑ SENSITIVE LAKE PROTECTION MENU T .N Sensitive Lake WQ Treatment Areas are designated by Kent in the watersheds of lakes that have a C combination of water quality characteristics and watershed development potential that makes them °r particularly prone to eutrophication induced by development. Such areas are delineated on the WQ M Applications Map adopted with this manual. The usage of cartridge filter facilities shall be restricted to sites where the water quality facility will be 3 maintained by the private property owner;cartridge filters will not be allowed on sites where the City will be maintaining the water quality facility. Y Note: For projects located at or near the delineated boundary of the Sensitive Lake WQ Treatment Area, o site-specific topography or drainage information may be needed to verify that the project or any threshold discharge area of the project is within the WQ treatment area.Any threshold discharge area is considered to be within the Sensitive Lake WQ Treatment Area if the threshold discharge area drains to the sensitive lake itself or to any waterbody or drainage system that is clearly within the mapped Sensitive M Lake WQ Treatment Area. aM .y Required Treatment Menu c L d Within Sensitive Lake WQ Treatment Areas, a water quality facility option from the Sensitive Lake o Protection menu shall be used to treat runoff from the surfaces listed under"Target Surfaces"below, except where such treatment is waived or reduced by the area-specific exceptions at the end of this 0 subsection and except where the Enhanced Basic WQ menu is applicable as follows.If 50%or more of the 't runoff that drains to any proposed water quality facility is from one or more of the following land uses, vn then a water quality facility option common to both the Sensitive Lake Protection menu and Enhanced Basic WQ menu shall be used for the design of this facility, except if such treatment is waived or reduced p by the area-specific exceptions at the end of this subsection: m 1. Residential subdivision development in which the actual density of single family units is equal to or greater than 8 units per acre of developed area. E 2. Commercial,industrial,or multifamily land use. M Q 3. A road with an expected average daily traffic(ADT)count of 2,000 or more vehicles or expected to serve 200 or more homes. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-57 June 2022 Packet Pg. 101 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIREME Treatment Goal and Options The treatment goal for facility options in the Sensitive Lake Protection menu is 50%annual average total phosphorus(TP)removal assuming typical pollutant concentrations in urban runof.25 This goal was chosen as a realistic and cost-effective level of phosphorus removal. The Sensitive Lake Protection menu includes options for using either Basic WQ facilities of larger size,combinations of two facilities in series,26 or a single facility in combination with land use planning elements that reduce phosphorus. See Chapter 6 for specific facility options and design details. a On some developments or portions thereof that have surface uses that generate the highest concentrations -°a of metals in stormwater runoff,the treatment goal is expanded to include>30%reduction of dissolved Q copper and>60%removal of dissolved zinc. This expanded goal requires use of a water quality facility option that is common to both the Sensitive Lake Protection menu and the Enhanced Basic menu. -Ma a M Intent A project discharging runoff via surface flow contributes phosphorus loading to a sensitive lake regardless M of distance from the lake.If discharge is via infiltration through coarse soils,it is also possible that phosphorus would be transported through the ground for some distance without attenuation. This a� groundwater transport distance is considered to be typically no more than one-quarter mile. Therefore, onsite treatment using the Sensitive Lake Protection menu is required prior to infiltration within one- quarter mile of a sensitive lake. Infiltration through finer soils is expected to provide significant attenuation of TP, so the general groundwater protection criteria specified in Section 5.2.1 are considered sufficient to reduce the facility requirement from the Sensitive Lake Protection menu to the Basic WQ menu for infiltration through qualifying soils. Where the treatment goal is expanded to include>30%reduction of dissolved copper and>60%removal of dissolved zinc,the facility options common to both the Sensitive Lake Protection menu and the d Enhanced Basic WQ menu should meet this goal as well as the lake protection goal of 50%removal of 1 annual average total phosphorous. oo Target Surfaces Facilities in Sensitive Lake WQ Treatment Areas must mitigate(either directly or in effect)the runoff from the following target surfaces within the threshold discharge area for which the facility is required: c aM 1. New PGIS that is not fully dispersed per the Criteria for Fully Dispersed Surfaces in Core y Requirement#3,or not farmland dispersed as specified in Appendix C.For individual lots within p residential subdivision projects,the extent of new PGIS shall be assumed based on expected driveway size as approved by ECD. M d 2. New PGPS that is not fully dispersed and from which there will be a concentrated surface discharge in a natural channel or man-made conveyance system from the site, or not farmland dispersed as specified in Appendix C.For individual lots within residential subdivision projects,the extent of new Cn pervious surface shall be assumed to be the entire lot area,except the assumed impervious portion as specified in Chapter 3 and any portion in which native conditions are preserved by covenant,tract,or p` easement.Note:where the runoff from target PGPS is separated from the runoff from target PGIS, the m Basic WQ menu may be used in place of the Sensitive Lake Protection menu for treatment of runoff from the target PGPS(see the area-specific exceptions at the end of this subsection). a a) E 25 Phosphorus concentrations of between 0.10 and 0.50 mg/L are considered typical of Seattle area runoff(Table 1,"Water Quality Q Thresholds Decision paper,"King County Surface Water Management Division,April 1994). 26 In series means that the entire treatment water volume flows from one facility to the other in turn.

The Basic WQ menu may be used in place of the Sensitive Lake Protection menu for treatment of runoff that is infiltrated according to the standards in Section 5.2. This exception is not allowed Y where infiltrating into soils that do not meet the groundwater protection standards described in Section 5.2.1,if within one-quarter-mile of a phosphorous sensitive receiving water or a tributary to that o receiving water. 2. Application of the Enhanced Basic WQ menu as specified above for certain land uses may be 3 c waived for treatment of any runoff that is infiltrated according to the standards in Section 5.2(A 0 facility from the Sensitive Lake Protection menu is still required unless that requirement has been reduced to the Basic WQ menu by another exception). This exception is not allowed where infiltrating y into soils that do not meet the groundwater protection standards described in Section 5.2.1,if within C one-quarter-mile of a fresh water designated for aquatic life use or that has an existing aquatic life use. M 3. Application of the Enhanced Basic WQ menu as specified above for certain land uses may be waived for treatment of any runoff that is discharged,via a non-fish-bearing conveyance system,all the way to the ordinary high water mark of a stream with a mean annual flow of 1,000 cfs or more(at the discharge point of the conveyance system)or a lake that is 300 acres or larger(A facility from the Cn Sensitive Lake Protection menu is still required unless that requirement has been reduced to the Basic WQ menu by another exception). This exception is not applicable where the receiving water is M 0 impaired for metals per Section 1.2.2.1: Downstream Analysis,and 1.2.2.1.2: Downstream Water M Quality Problems Requiring Special Attention,Metals Problem(Type 4). 4. The Enhanced Basic WQ menu as specified above for treating runoff from a commercial land use may be waived(A facility from the Sensitive Lake Protection menu is still required unless that requirement has been reduced to the Basic WQ menu by another exception)if all of the following criteria are met: Q a) No leachable metals(e.g.,galvanized metals)are currently used or proposed to be used in areas of the site exposed to the weather,AND City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-59 June 2022 Packet Pg. 103 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIREME b) A covenant is recorded that prohibits future such use of leachable metals on the site exposed to the weather(use the covenant in Reference Section 8-Q),AND c) Less than 50%of the runoff draining to the proposed water quality facility is from any area of the site comprised of one or both of the following land uses: • Commercial land use with an expected ADT of 100 or more vehicles per 1,000 square feet of gross building area. • Commercial land use involved with vehicle repair,maintenance,or sales. Q- 0 5. The Basic WQ menu may be used for treatment of any runoff from target PGPS that is treated Q separately from the runoff from target PGIS. 0 CL 6. The facility requirement as applied to target PGPS may be waived altogether for an agricultural project if there is a farm management plan for agricultural uses per KCC 21A.24 and KCC 16.82,or M for other land uses if city review staff approves a landscape management plan (LMP)that controls r_ solids,pesticides,fertilizers, and other erodible or leachable materials leaving the site. c aM 7. The facility requirement as applied to replaced PGIS maybe waived if the City has adopted a plan and implementation schedule for fulfilling this requirement using regional facilities. p L d Note:If a lake management plan has been prepared and adopted by Kent, additional treatment and/or M other water quality measures may be required as specified in the plan and pursuant to Special Requirement#1, Section 1.3.1. 1.2.8.2 WATER QUALITY IMPLEMENTATION REQUIREMENTS Y Water quality facilities shall be designed and implemented in accordance with the following requirements, " T allowances,and flexible compliance provisions: oo M A. Methods of Analysis and Design M Water quality treatment facilities shall be analyzed and designed as detailed in Chapter 6. 0 B. Siting of Treatment Facilities c Required water quality facilities shall be located so as to treat the runoff from all target surfaces, except aM .y as allowed below under"Treatment Trades"and"Untreated Discharges." C Any other onsite or offsite runoff draining to a proposed treatment water quality facility must be °r treated whether it is from a target pollution-generating surface or not and regardless of whether M the runoff has already been treated by another facility. The facility must be sized for all flows/volumes entering the facility. This is because treatment effectiveness is determined in part by the total volume of runoff entering the facility. Cn C. Treatment of Pervious Surfaces M L Pollution-generating pervious surfaces subject to Core Requirement#8 need only be treated using the o Basic WQ menu. It is also possible for the facility requirement to be waived if there is a good faith m agreement with city review staff to approve a landscape management plan that controls solids, pesticides,and fertilizers leaving the site. D. Treatment Trades The runoff from target pollution-generating surfaces may be released untreated if an existing non- targeted pollution-generating surface of equivalent size and pollutant characteristics lying within the Q same watershed or stream reach tributary area is treated on the project site. Such substitution is subject to all of the following restrictions: City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-60 June 2022 Packet Pg. 104 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIREME 1. The existing non-targeted pollution-generating surface is not currently being treated by any phase of the proposed project,is not subject to NPDES or other permit requirements,and is not under a compliance order or other regulatory action, 2. 2.The existing non-targeted pollution-generating surface that is treated for purposes of the treatment trade must be documented and tracked by city review staff. Documentation should clarify that future redevelopment of the existing non-targeted,treated area used for the treatment trade will incur additional water quality treatment requirements if the redevelopment exceeds Core Requirement 8 thresholds.Any additional water quality a treatment triggered by redevelopment of the non-targeted,treated area must be achieved .°a by implementing an additional treatment trade. Q 3. The proposal is reviewed and approved by city review staff. CL E. Untreated Discharges If site topographic constraints are such that runoff from a target pollution-generating surface must M be pumped to be treated by the required water quality facility,then city review staff may allow the M area's runoff to be released untreated,provided that all of the following conditions are met: c 1. Treatment of the constrained area by filter strip,biofiltration,or a linear sand filter is not feasible, and a treatment trade as described above is not possible. p L 2. The untreated target surface is less than 5,000 square feet of new plus replaced PGIS. d M 3. Any target PGPS within the area to be released untreated shall be addressed with a landscape management plan (LMP),which must be submitted to and approved by city review staff. The LMP applies to the entire site and all drainage area tributary to the site within one or more � contiguous parcels under the same ownership or documented legal control. c F. Use of Experimental Water Quality Facilities Y Water quality facilities other than those identified in Chapter 6 are allowed on an experimental basis if r it can be demonstrated they are likely to meet the pollutant removal goal for the applicable receiving °r° water. Use of such facilities requires an experimental design adjustment to be approved by Kent according to Section 1.4,"Adjustment Process.",Experimental and proprietary BMPs may be allowed a to provide pretreatment for filter BMPs or as the second WQ facility in the Two-Facility Treatment r_ Train option. Applications will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. For an experimental or proprietary BMP to be approved,it must be approved for use through the Washington Department of Ecology's TAPE Program. y d G. Owner Responsibility for Water Quality L d Regardless of the means by which a property owner chooses to meet the water quality requirements of M this manual—whether a water quality facility,a train of facilities,a treatment trade,or an experimental water quality facility—it is ultimately the responsibility of the property owner to ensure that runoff from their site does not create water quality problems or degrade downstream beneficial uses. It is also ultimately the responsibility of the property owner to ensure that the discharge from Cn their property is not in violation of State and Federal laws. 0 M m C E t V Q City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-61 June 2022 Packet Pg. 105 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIREME 1.2.9 CORE REQUIREMENT #9: FLOW CONTROL BMPS All proposed projects,including redevelopment projects,must provide onsite flow control BMPs to mitigate the impacts of storm and surface water runoff generated by new impervious surface,new pervious surface,existing impervious surfaces,and replaced impervious surface targeted for mitigation as specified in the following sections. Flow control BMPs must be selected and applied according to the basic requirements,procedures,and provisions detailed in this section and the design specifications for each BMP in Appendix C, Section C.2. Q- 0 Q Flow control BMPs are methods and designs for dispersing,infiltrating,or otherwise reducing or preventing development-related increases in runoff at or near the sources of those increases. Flow control 0 13 BMPs include,but are not limited to,preservation and use of native vegetated surfaces to fully disperse Q- runoff,use of other pervious surfaces to disperse runoff,roof downspout infiltration;permeable pavements; bioretention;limited infiltration systems;and reduction of development footprint. c M Intent: To provide mitigation of hydrologic impacts that is not possible/practical to mitigate with a flow control facility. Such impacts include increases in runoff volumes and flashiness and decreases in groundwater recharge. Increased runoff volume and flashiness leads to higher and more variable stream velocities at low flows and more frequent water level fluctuations in streams and wetlands. This causes C wash-out and stranding of aquatic species,algal scour and washout of organic matter, loss of vegetation +; diversity and habitat quality, and disruption of cues for spawning,egg hatching,and migration. `° Decreased groundwater recharge reduces water supply for human use and summer base flows in streams, which is critical to water temperature, salmonid use of smaller streams,and the habitat quality of mainstream side channels and wetlands used for spawning,rearing,and flood refuge. Flow control 3 BMPs seek to reduce runoff volumes and flashiness and increase groundwater recharge by reducing imperviousness and making use of the pervious portions of development sites to maximize infiltration and retention of stormwater onsite. Thus,the goal is to apply flow control BMPs to new impervious Y surfaces,new pervious surfaces,replaced impervious surfaces, and existing impervious surfaces added r since January 8,2001 (effective date of the ESA 4(d)Rule for Puget Sound Chinook salmon)to the M maximum extent feasible without causing flooding or erosion impacts. ❑ EXEMPTION FROM CORE REQUIREMENT#9 M There is a single exemption from the flow control BMP provisions of Core Requirement#9: a� .y 1. Basic Exemption A proposed project is exempt if it meets the following criteria: +; M a) Less than 2,000 square feet of new plus replaced impervious surface will be created,AND d b) Less than 7,000 square feet of land disturbing activity will occur. Cn 1.2.9.1 FLOW CONTROL BMP REQUIREMENTS OVERVIEW M 0 Projects that are subject to Core Requirement#9 must apply flow control BMPs to either supplement the pMp flow mitigation provided by required flow control facilities or provide flow mitigation where flow control facilities are not required. All such flow control BMPs are detailed in Appendix C of this manual. Flow control BMPs must be implemented per the requirements and approach detailed in E Sections 1.2.9.2 and 1.2.9.3 below for individual lots and subdivisions or road improvement projects,respectively. As Q described within Sections 1.2.9.2 and 1.2.9.3,there are two methods of satisfying the FCBMP requirement: (1)application of BMPs to the maximum extent feasible using lists specific to the project location, size, and impervious coverage;or(2)using a continuous runoff model to demonstrate compliance with the Low Impact Development(LID)Performance Standard, described below. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-62 June 2022 Packet Pg. 106 4.B.c SECTION 1.2 CORE REQUIREME Target surfaces Target surfaces for application of Core Requirement#9(FCBMPs)include new impervious surfaces,new pervious surfaces,replaced impervious surfaces,and any existing impervious surfaces added on or after January 8,2001 (the effective date of the Endangered Species Act"take prohibition"issued by the federal government to protect Puget Sound Chinook salmon)not already mitigated with an approved FCBMP or flow control facility. a Projects that trigger Core Requirement#9 by disturbing 7,000 square feet or more of land,but where Q new plus replaced impervious is less than 2,000 square feet,may consider basic dispersion as an equal choice for treating the target impervious surfaces alongside full infiltration,limited infiltration, 4) bioretention,and permeable pavement FCBMPs. These projects are not required to meet the minimum 3 CL BMP implementation requirements described in"Small Lot BMP Requirements"and"Large Lot BMP M Requirements,"(Requirement#5 on both lists),and are not required to comply with Core Requirement M M #6.Any impervious surface served by an infiltration facility designed in accordance with the flow r_ control facility requirement(Section 1.2.3.1),the facility implementation requirements(Section 1.2.3.2),and the design criteria for infiltration facilities(Section 5.2)is exempt from the flow control BMPs requirement. C Any impervious or pervious surface served by the farmland dispersion BMP detailed in Appendix C, Section C.2.5,is exempt from the flow control BMPs requirement.Note that new pervious areas that are M farmland dispersed are still required to comply with KCC 16.82.100(F)and(G)as required to protect the soil moisture holding capacity. Projects or threshold discharge areas of projects qualifying as exempt from the flow control facility requirement using the Direct Discharge Exemption in accordance with Section 1.2.3.1 do not have to achieve the Low Impact Development(LID)performance standard(described below),nor consider Y bioretention,permeable pavement,and full dispersion.However,the soil moisture holding capacity of new pervious surfaces on those projects(or portions of projects) must be protected in accordance with o Kent Grading Standards and(G).Kent City Code Chapter 15.07.Full infiltration as detailed in Appendix C, Section C.2.2,Basic Dispersion per Appendix C, Section C.2.4,and perforated pipe connection as detailed in Appendix C, Section C.2.11 must be implemented for roofs,if feasible; and Basic Dispersion 3 c per Appendix C, Section C.2.4 must be implemented for other impervious surfaces,if feasible.

For BMPs that rely on vegetation,the L vegetation must be planted and starting to grow prior to final construction approval. W 5. Acceptance standards. Flow control BMPs may be inspected during and/or following construction. Approval of the constructed BMPs will be based on verification that the materials and placement appear to meet the specifications and that the BMPs appear to function as designed. Onsite Cn observations may be used to verify that materials are as specified and material receipts checked. Performance may be evaluated by a site visit while it is raining or by testing with a bucket of water or 0 garden hose to check pavement permeability or proper connection to BMP devices/features, etc. M m 6. Drainage concerns. If city review staff determines that there is a potential for drainage impacts to a neighboring property,then additional measures may be required. Some flow control BMPs may not be appropriate in certain situations,and will not be allowed by city review staff where they may E cause drainage problems. 7. Geotechnical concerns. A geotechnical engineer,engineering geologist,or city review staff Q contracted geologist must evaluate and approve flow control BMPs that are proposed: (A)on slopes steeper than 15%; (B)within a setback from the top of slope equal to the total vertical height of the slope area that is steeper than 15%;or(C)within 200 feet of a steep slope hazard area,erosion hazard area,or landslide hazard area.

City review staff may also require some projects to route flows down or around such slopes using non-perforated pipes. Some flow control BMPs may not be appropriate for these locations,and will not be allowed by city review staff where flows may cause erosion problems. 8. Sewage system concerns. If city review staff determines that there is a potential conflict between onsite sewage systems and flow control BMPs,additional measures may be required. Some projects may need to route flows past onsite sewage systems using non-perforated pipes. Also, some flow control BMPs may not be appropriate for these sites, and will not be allowed where a sewage systems may be impacted. -ca Q 1.2.9.3 SUBDIVISION AND ROAD IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS BMP REQUIREMENTS a a M For subdivision and road improvement projects,flow control BMPs must be selected and applied M M according to the subdivision and road improvement projects BMP requirements in this section.

Q City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-79 June 2022 Packet Pg. 123 4.B.c SECTION 1.3 SPECIAL REQUIREME 1.3.4 SPECIAL REQUIREMENT #4: SOURCE CONTROLS Water quality source controls prevent rainfall and runoff water from coming into contact with pollutants, thereby reducing the likelihood that pollutants will enter public waterways and violate water quality standards. King County prepared a Stormwater Pollution Control Manual for citizens,businesses, and industries to identify and implement source controls for activities that often pollute water bodies. Kent provides advice on source control implementation upon request. The City may,however,require 0. 0 mandatory source controls at any time through formal code enforcement if complaints or studies reveal Q water quality violations or problems. m 0 a M Threshold Requirement M c M IF a proposed project is either: THEN the project must provide water quality • a commercial,industrial,or multifamily site source controls applicable to the proposed project in accordance with the King County Stormwater y development,OR Pollution Control Manual. C • a redevelopment project proposing `m improvements to an existing commercial, M industrial,multifamily site. . . m Application of this Requirement c When applicable per the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Manual, structural source control measures, Y such as car wash pads or dumpster area roofing, shall be applied to the entire site containing the proposed project,not just the project site. If the applicant is a tenant or lessee for only a portion of the site,city oo review staff may limit the entire site application of structural source controls to only that portion of the site occupied or leased by the applicant. All applicable structural source control measures, such as covering i storage piles with plastic or isolating areas where pollutants are used or stored,are to be implemented after occupancy and need not be addressed during the plan review process. All commercial and industrial projects(irrespective of size)undergoing drainage review are required to implement applicable source controls. y d Activities That May Result In Structural Improvements a� There are a number of activities that may require structures and/or specific drainage configurations in M order to protect stormwater and maintain compliance with city code. Roof structures,wheel washes, cement pads,shutoff valves, containment berms and indoor mop sinks are all examples of things that need to be in place prior to commencing the activity. These may require building permits and other approvals prior to construction.

Such sites typically generate high concentrations of oil due to high traffic turnover,on-site vehicle or heavy or stationary equipment use, some business operations, e.g.,automotive recycling,or the frequent transfer of liquid petroleum or coal derivative products.. Q- 0 A high-use site is any one of the following: Q m * A commercial or industrial site subject to an expected average daily traffic(ADT)count equal to or -0a greater than 100 vehicles per 1,000 square feet of gross building area,OR Q- • A commercial or industrial site subject to petroleum storage and transfer in excess of 1,500 gallons per year,not including routinely delivered heating oil, OR M 2 • A commercial or industrial site subject to use, storage,or maintenance of a fleet of 25 or more diesel c vehicles that are over 10 tons gross weight(trucks,buses,trains,heavy equipment,etc.),OR •y d * A road intersection with a measure ADT count of 25,000 vehicles or more on the main roadway and 15,000 vehicles or more on any intersection roadway,excluding project proposing primarily M pedestrian or bicycle use improvements. ?� m The oil control requirement for high-use sites applies to all sites that generate high concentrations of oil, regardless of whether the project creates new impervious surface or makes site improvements to an existing high-use site. The traffic threshold identified focuses on vehicle turnover per square foot of building area(trip generation)rather than ADT alone. This is because oil leakage is greatest when engines are idling or cooling. In general,all-day parking areas are not intended to be captured by these thresholds Y except for diesel vehicles,which tend to leak oil more than non-diesel vehicles. The petroleum storageoo r and transfer stipulation is intended to address regular transfer operations such as service stations,not M occasional filling of heating oil tanks. c 0 Threshold Requirement aM IF a proposed project either: THEN the project must treat runoff from the U) high-use portion of the site using oil control p • develops a site that will have high-use site treatment options from the High-Use menu d characteristics(defined above),OR (described below and detailed in Chapter 6). M • is a redevelopment project proposing $100,000 or more of improvements to an v existing high-use site. • is a redevelopment project that results in new Cn plus replaced pollution generating impervious surfaces of 5,000 square feet or more or new p` pollution generating pervious surfaces of 1/4 M acre or more improvements to an existing high-use site... c E High-Use Menu High-use oil control options are selected to capture and detain oil and associated pollutants. The goal of Q treatment is to have no visible sheen in runoff leaving the facility,or to have less than 10 mg/L total petroleum hydrocarbons(TPH), depending on the facility option used. Oil control options include facilities that are small,handle only a limited tributary area, and require frequent maintenance,as well as facilities that treat larger areas and generally have less frequent maintenance needs. Facility choices City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-82 June 2022 Packet Pg. 126 4.B.c SECTION 1.3 SPECIAL REQUIREME include catch basin inserts,linear sand filters,and oil/water separators. See Chapter 6 for specific facility choices and design details. Application of this Requirement For high-use sites located within a larger commercial center,only the impervious surface associated with the high-use portion of the site is subject to treatment requirements. If common parking for multiple businesses is provided,treatment shall be applied to the number of parking stalls required for the high-use Q- 0 business only. However,if the treatment collection area also receives runoff from other areas,the water 'D Q quality facility must be sized to treat all water passing through it. 1 m High-use roadway intersections shall treat the intersection itself,plus lanes where vehicles accumulate -0a during the signal cycle,including all lanes,from the beginning of the left-turn pocket(see Figure C 1.3.5.A below). If no left-turn pocket exists,the treatable area shall begin at a distance of 75 feet from M the stop line. If runoff from the intersection drains to more than two collection areas that do not c combine within the intersection,treatment may be limited to any two of the collection areas. Oil control facilities shall be designed for all flows tributary to the oil control facility including flow from otherwise exempt areas that are not bypassed around the facility. N d c Note: For oil control facilities to be located in public road right-of-way and maintained by Kent,only +; coalescing plate or baffle oil/water separators shall be used unless otherwise approved by an `° adjustment. Catch basin inserts are not allowed for oil control. 0 Methods of Analysis t� The traffic threshold for the High-Use menu shall be estimated using information from Trip Generation, Y published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers,or from a traffic study prepared by a professional engineer or transportation specialist with experience in traffic estimation. oo FIGURE 1.3.5.A TREATABLE AREAS FOR HIGH-USE 7 .O, 1 INTERSECTIONS C M 2 C LM.y N 1 I 1 I L 1 I � 1 M I I I I I I ' High-use 1 I area '� I I / N I I I M L ---''''- ------------- �1000- m I I 1 E I 1 I 1 I I 1 V I 1 I � 1 I I 1 I 1 1 I I I I I I I City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-83 June 2022 Packet Pg. 127 SECTION 1.4 ADJUSTMENT PROCESS 1.4 ADJUSTMENT PROCESS For proposed projects subject to drainage review by city review staff,this process is provided for the occasions when a project proponent desires to vary from one of the core or special requirements,or any a other specific requirement or standard contained in this manual.

E Experimental Design Adjustments a Experimental design adjustments may be required for departures from design specifications in flow control facilities(Chapter 5),may be required for alternatives to erosion and sediment control(ESC) facilities in Appendix D; and are required for alternatives to water quality facilities listed in Chapter 6 City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-85 August 2022 Packet Pg. 129 4.B.c SECTION 1.4 ADJUSTMENT PROCESS and Reference 14. Required water quality monitoring is in addition to any required by Ecology for their approval.Kent does not pay for this monitoring.Monitoring costs are covered by the applicant and/or the facility vendor or manufacturer according to their agreement. Flow Control Facilities a 0 In most cases,a standard adjustment applies to alternative flow control designs.However,city review Q staff may require an experimental design adjustment that includes monitoring when deemed warranted. 0 CL Erosion and Sediment Control Facilities Erosion and sediment control(ESC)facilities that have Ecology CTAPE approval do not require an experimental design adjustment.The City of Kent will consider an experimental design adjustment for M an ESC without CTAPE approval,but only for those that Ecology has approved as equivalent. c .N Water Quality Facilities c Experimental design adjustments for water quality facilities may be approved by city review staff on a +; limited basis if,upon evaluation,city review staff determines the following criteria are met: `° • The facility has already been approved by Ecology's TAPE3031 program,and has General Use Level Designation(GULD). Facilities with conditional approval(CULD)may also be considered if the manufacturer has applied to Ecology for GULD determination and will be tn' monitoring under the TAPE program. Approval by Ecology does not by itself constitute or c ensure approval by the City of Kent.For both GULD and CULD designations,Ecology's Y approval documentation must indicate that maintenance is required no more frequently than r annually for flow control and water quality facilities excluding temporary construction ESC Oo facilities. • Experimental design adjustments are not permitted for facilities that the city will be responsible to c maintain. M 2 • City review staff determines that technical reports and data suggest facility performance could be a� replicated. City review staff must have access to the full technical report(s)submitted to Ecology for U) TAPE,and may require any other reports or data referred to but not provided. C L • The Applicant agrees to monitoring as described in Reference 8-F; a monitoring quality assurance project plan has been submitted to,reviewed and approved by city review staff;and the Consultant providing the monitoring has provided the Applicant and city review staff with a cost analysis of the monitoring program. • For Presettling and Basic treatment water quality facilities only,if the facility has already been Cn approved by Ecology through Ecology's TAPE program,and has GULD, additional TSS percent M removal monitoring will not be required,but city review staff may require other monitoring, e.g., constructability,durability,and/or maintenance monitoring. City review staff may limit the number M of installations until he/she is satisfied that the facility type is viable. }; c m E Q 30 Technology Assessment Protocol—Ecology City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-86 August 2022 Packet Pg. 130 4.B.c SECTION 1.4 ADJUSTMENT PROCESS Additional Notes • If review of Ecology's basis for granting GULD is found to be flawed and city review staff then finds GULD should not have been issued,city review staff may rescind its approval for new c installations of the facility in the City of Kent.

The application `° shall note the specific requirement for which the adjustment is sought. c * If the adjustment request involves use of a previously unapproved construction material or construction practice,the applicant should submit documentation that includes,but is not limited to,a record of successful use by other agencies and/or evidence of meeting criteria for quality and performance, such as that for the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials � (AASHTO)and the American Society of Testing and Materials(ASTM). 0 * If the adjustment requires a criteria exception,additional engineering or other information may be 3 required by city review staff to document that denial of reasonable use would occur,that every effort was made to achieve compliance, and that the best practicable alternative will not cause significant d adverse impact. Y * A fee reduction may be requested if it is demonstrated that the adjustment request requires little or no o engineering review. c Experimental Design Adjustments M The application process is the same as for standard adjustments except that requests will be accepted prior to permit application. Justification supporting comparable performance of the proposed system to a standard design is required. C L d M Blanket Adjustments a� There is no application process for establishing blanket adjustments because they are initiated and issued 0 solely by the City. Cn Applicants may apply to use SWDM web-posted blanket adjustments by submitting the adjustment application form noted above to plan review staff assigned to the specific project proposal. p` M m 1.4.4 ADJUSTMENT REVIEW PROCESS E The general steps of the review process for specific types of adjustments are presented as follows: 0 Standard Adjustments a * City review staff will review the adjustment request application forms and documentation for completeness and inform the applicant in writing as to whether additional information is required from the applicant to complete the review. The applicant will also be informed if city review staff City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 1-88 August 2022 Packet Pg. 132 4.B.c SECTION 1.4 ADJUSTMENT PROCESS determines that special technical support is required in cases where the adjustment involves a major policy issue or potentially impacts a Public Works drainage facility. * The Economic and Community Development Director or designee will review and either approve or deny the adjustment request following city review staff s determination that all necessary information has been received from the applicant. a 0 * If a criteria exception is required for the adjustment,city review staff will issue a legal public notice Q of the adjustment request that indicates the director's proposed decision on the request,including the written finding of fact specified in Section 1.4.2. The public notice will include a 15-working-day M public comment period within which a request for reconsideration may be made to the Economic Q. and Community Development Director as described in Section 1.4.5. Absent a request for reconsideration,the Director's decision becomes final after the two week public comment period. c * Approvals of standard adjustments will expire upon expiration of the permit to which they apply. c .N Experimental Design Adjustments c L • The City will consider any flow control adjustment request,but will only consider experimental M design adjustments for water quality facilities that have been approved by Ecology's TAPE program,and erosion and sediment control facilities that have been deemed by Ecology to be equivalent to facilities they have approved through their CTAPE program. .� • All information including but not limited to reports and data submitted to Ecology for their TAPE approvals must be submitted to City plan review staff. This may require coordination between the manufacturer and the applicant. Y • City review staff will review the submitted material and any recommendations, and inform the o review staff will also give the applicant an estimate of the time needed to complete the review.

The intent of these requirements is to present consistent formats for design plans and the technical support data required to develop the plans. These conventions are necessary to review engineering designs for compliance with a Kent ordinances and regulations,and to ensure the intent of the plan is easily understood and implemented in the field. Properly drafted design plans and supporting information also facilitate the construction, operation,and maintenance of the proposed system long after its review and approval. When plans M comply with the formats and specifications contained herein,they facilitate review and approval with a minimum of time-consuming corrections and resubmittals. .N Note that this chapter primarily describes how to submit drainage plans for review—what must be p submitted,in what formats,at what times,and to what offices. The basic drainage requirements that these `m plans must address are contained in Chapter 1,"Drainage Review and Requirements." The specific design M methods and criteria to be used are contained in Chapters 3,4,5,and 6. Several key forms used in the plan review process are reproduced in Reference Section 8,"Plan Review Forms and Worksheets"accompanying Chapter 5 of the Kent Construction Standards. j c d Y Chapter Organization T The information presented in this chapter is organized into four main sections as follows: M • Section 2.1,"Plans for Permits and Drainage Review" • Section 2.2, "Plans Required with Initial Permit Application" • Section 2.3,"Plans Required for Drainage Review" aM • Section 2.4,"Plans Required After Drainage Review" C These sections begin on odd pages so that tabs can be inserted by the user if desired for quicker reference. M d Cn M L M m C E t V Q City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 2-1 June 2022 Packet Pg. 137 SECTION 2.1 PLANS FOR PERMITS AND DRAINAGE REV 4.B.c 2.1. PLANS FOR PERMITS AND DRAINAGE REVIEW The Economic and Community Development Department is responsible for the review of all engineering aspects of private development proposals. Drainage review is a primary concern of engineering design. This section provides an overview of the types of engineered drainage plans required for engineering c review at various permit review stages.Detailed requirements are presented in Sections 2.2 and 2.3. Q 2.1.1 PLANS REQUIRED FOR INITIAL PERMIT SUBMITTAL M CL Most projects require some degree of drainage plans or analysis to be submitted with the initial permit M application(see Table 2.2.LA). At the City of Kent, subdivisions and short plats are reviewed in two M stages: preliminary and final. Subdivisions and short plats will require a"Preliminary Plat/Short Plat r_ Drainage Package"with the initial permit application. The package will provide general information on the proposal,including location of environmentally sensitive areas,road alignments and right-of--way,site topography,building locations,land use information,and lot dimensions. It will be used to determine the U) appropriate drainage conditions and requirements to be applied to the proposal during the drainage review C L process. +; M Single-family residential building permits require only a site plan with the initial permit application. Commercial permits require full engineering plans(see below). Other permits may have project specific drainage requirements determined by the Economic and Community Development Department. 2.1.2 PLANS REQUIRED FOR DRAINAGE REVIEW Y For drainage review purposes, engineering plans consist of the following: T oo 1. Site improvement plans,which include all plans,profiles,details,notes,and specifications necessary M to construct road,drainage, and off-street parking improvements(see Section 2.3.1.2). M 2. A technical information report(TIR),which contains all the technical information and analysis c necessary to develop the site improvement plan and CSWPP plan. (see Section 2.3.1.1). 2 3. A construction stormwater pollution prevention(CSWPP)plan, which identifies the measures a� and BMP's required to prevent the discharge of sediment-laden water and other pollutants associated with construction/land disturbing activities.The CSWPP plan includes two L component plans: an erosion and sediment control(ESC)plan(see Section 2.3.1.3),which M addresses prevention of sediment-laden discharges; and stormwater pollution prevention and ?� spill(SWPPS)plan(see Section 2.3.1.4),which addresses prevention of other pollutant discharges. Note: A landscape management plan is also included if applicable(see Section 2.3.1.5). Cn Projects under Targeted Drainage Review usually require engineering plans, except that only certain sections of the technical information report are required to be completed and the site improvement plan may have a limited scope depending upon the characteristics of the proposed project. The scope of these plans should be confirmed during the project pre-application meeting with the Economic and }; Community Development Department. For other permits, such as single-family residential permits,the scope of the targeted engineering analysis is usually determined during Economic and Community E Development Department engineering review. Projects without major drainage improvements may be approved to submit a modified site Q improvement plan. Major drainage improvements usually include water quality or flow control facilities, conveyance systems,bridges,and road right-of-way improvements. For projects requiring engineering plans for road construction,a modified site improvement plan is not allowed. See Section 2.3.1.2 for further information. City of Kent Surface Water Design Manual 2-2 June 2022 Packet Pg. 138 4.B.c Plans Required for Simplified Drainage Review Simplified drainage plans are a simplified form of site improvement and CSWPP plans(without a TIR or a separate SWPPS plan),that may be prepared by a non-engineer from a set of pre-engineered design details. Simplified drainage plans are only allowed for single family or agricultural projects in Simplified Drainage Review but may be required for individual lots created by a subdivision project to show how required flow control BMPs,ESC,and SWPPS measures will be applied to future lot construction. For single-family residential permits,the level and scope of drainage plan requirements are determined by o the Economic and Community Development Department during drainage review. Some projects Q qualifying for Simplified Drainage Review may also require Targeted Drainage Review.

The timing for submittal of engineering plans will vary depending on permit type. For subdivisions and short plats,this submittal usually follows the City's approval of the Preliminary Plat/Short Plat Drainage Package. For a commercial building permits,engineering plans must be submitted as part of the initial permit application. For .°a other permit types the drainage plan requirements are determined during the permit review process. Q Note: If engineering plans are required to be submitted with the initialpermit application, they must be accompanied by the appropriate supporting documents (e.g., required application forms, an environmental a checklist, etc).

Note: If offsite conditions have been altered since the initial submittal, a new offsite analysis may be required. The primary component of the offsite analysis is the downstream analysis described in detail below. Upstream areas are included in this component to the extent they are expected to be affected by backwater effects from the proposed project. Other components of the offsite analysis could include,but are not limited to,evaluation of impacts to fish habitat,groundwater levels,groundwater quality,or other environmental features expected to be significantly affected by the proposed project due to its size or proximity to such features. Levels of Analysis -0a0 The offsite analysis report requirements vary depending on the specific site and downstream conditions. Q Each project submittal shall include at least a Level 1 downstream analysis.

M Level 2 or 3 Analysis If drainage problems are identified in the Level 1 analysis,a Level 2 (rough quantitative)analysis or a Level 3 (more precise quantitative)analysis may be required to further evaluate proposed mitigation 3 for the problem. City review staff will determine whether a Level 2 or 3 analysis is required based on the evidence of existing or potential problems identified in the Level 1 analysis and on the proposed Y design of onsite drainage facilities. The Level 3 analysis is required when results need to be as accurate as possible: for example,if the site is flat; if the system is affected by downstream controls; oo if minor changes in the drainage system could flood roads or buildings; or if the proposed project will M contribute more than 15 percent of the total peak flow to the drainage problem location. The Level 2 or 3 analysis may not be required if city review staff determines from the Level 1 analysis that 3 adequate mitigation can be developed. c Additional Analysis °' .y Additional,more detailed hydrologic analysis may be required if city review staff determines that the p downstream analysis has not been sufficient to accurately determine the impacts of a proposed project on an existing or potential drainage problem.

James Street has a long history of flooding during major storms. The installation of the James Street Pump Station in 2017 reduced the duration of road closures by pumping water to the Green River; however, some standing water still occurs during the rainy season. The City applied for a King County Flood Control District Flood Reduction grant to help fund improvements that would increase the volume of stormwater sent to the existing pump station. The project will improve drainage and will help reduce the duration of lane closures of James Street. SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLAN GOAL: Evolving Infrastructure - Connecting people and places through strategic investments in physical and technological infrastructure. Thriving City - Creating safe neighborhoods, healthy people, vibrant commercial districts, and inviting parks and recreation. Packet Pg. 236
