DRAINAGE& EROSION CONTROL PLAN & PROJECT OVERVIEW
A single family residence (approx. 1,110 sq. ft. footprint)will be constructed in lot 17 of
Jackson Cove Park, address 190 Bee Mill Road, Jefferson County parcel number 963-
900-023;the lot is 0.274 acres in size. There is an existing home, garage, asphalt
driveway, and septic system on site. Total impervious area on the site is approximately
4,408 sq. ft. with approximately 575 sq. ft. of decking surrounding the residence.
Existing impervious surfaces cover approximately 36.9% of the parcel. The existing
home will be demolished and removed, along with a portion of the existing asphalt
driveway/parking to construct and install a new septic system. An existing green house
and covered platform have been removed. Upon completion of the proposed
development there will be a total of 3,902 sq. ft. of impervious surfacing (asphalt, garage
roof,proposed roof) and 250 sq. ft. of exposed decking. An anticipated 144 sq. ft. of
concrete will be poured surrounding a hot tub. The construction would result in the
removal of approximately 506 sq. ft. of impervious surfacing. The resulting percent
impervious area would be reduced to 32.7%.
Based on the Stormwater Calculation Worksheet(see attached)for Jefferson County,the
project is classified as a"small"project/redevelopment. With this classification only
Minimum Requirement#2 is applicable,which entails considering the twelve (12)
Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention (SWPP) Best Management Practices
during construction. The information packet is attached. Detailed erosion and sediment
control practices, procedures, and timing are outlined in the WESTECH COMPANY
Mitigation and Habitat Management Plan (MHMP), location of BMP's can be found on
the provided site plan.
Downspout splash blocks (minimum 3) should be constructed to promote dispersion and
infiltration of roof runoff. Based on the findings in the MHMP the soils in the proposed
construction area vary from Grove very gravelly sand(GrC) and Olete-Hoodsport
Complex (OpD). The first 20-30 inches of both soils are well draining, utilizing splash
blocks will allow for onsite retention/infiltration and help reduce erosion and rifling to the
east.
Construction activity will include the demolition and removal of existing asphalt and
home, excavation and grading for the proposed S.F.R., construction and installation of
the proposed septic system (designed by others), excavation and installation of new
utilities, construction of the proposed home, construction and installation of stormwater
structures(splash blocks), Construction of stairs/pathway to the tidal flats, delineation
and planting of proposed mitigation areas as identified in the MHMP, and the
stabilization of disturbed soils upon completion of construction.
Wastewater will be handled onsite through the use of a new septic system designed and
installed by others.

STORMWATER CALCULATION WORKSHEET
MIA# PROJECT/APPLICANT NAME: qiyk 414%t ✓FZ
DETERMINING STORMWATER MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS:This stormwater calculation worksheet should be completed first to
classify the proposal as "small," "medium," or "large." The size determines whether a Stormwater Site Plan is required in
conjunction with a stand-alone stormwater management permit application, building permit application,or other land use approval
application that involves stormwater review. The basic information will also be helpful for completing a Stormwater Site Plan, if
required.
PARCEL SIZE(I.E., SITE)
Size of parcel 0.274 acres An acre contains 43,560 square feet. Multiply the acreage by this figure.
Size of parcel in square feet 11,935 sq/ft
Land-disturbing activity is any activity that results in movement of earth,or a change in the existing soil cover(both vegetative and
non-vegetative)and/or the existing soil topography. Land disturbing activities include,but are not limited to clearing,grading,filling,
excavation,and compaction associated with stabilization of structures and road construction.
Native vegetation is vegetation comprised on plant species,other than noxious weeds,that are indigenous to the coastal region of
the Pacific Northwest and which reasonably could have been expected to naturally occur on the site. Examples include species such
as Douglas fir, western hemlock, western red cedar, alder, big-leaf maple, and vine maple; shrubs such as willow, elderberry,
salmonberry,and salal;herbaceous plants such as sword fern,foam flower,and fireweed.

Impervious surface is a hard surface that either prevents or retards the entry of water into the soil mantle as under natural
conditions prior to development. A hard surface area which causes water to run off the surface in greater quantities or at an
increased rate of flow from the flow present under natural conditions prior to development. Common impervious surfaces include,
but are not limited to roof tops,walkways, patios, driveways, parking lots or storage areas,concrete or asphalt paving,gravel roads,
packed earthen materials,and oiled,macadam or other surfaces which similarly impede the natural infiltration of stormwater.

Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Best Management Practices (BMPs) Packet
For"small" projects(as determined through the Stormwater Calculation Worksheet),the applicant shall
consider the twelve Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention elements and implement applicable
BMPs. A set of useful BMPs for typical rural residential construction is attached. There is no additional
submittal required as part of the permit application.
For"medium"and"large"projects, the Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)is
part of the overall Stormwater Site Plan required as part of the permit application. Refer to the
Stormwater Management Information Sheet for guidance.
The following twelve elements must be considered for Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention
before and during the construction phase of the project:
1. Mark Clearing Limits 7. Protect Drain Inlets
2. Establish Construction Access 8. Stabilize Channels and Outlets
3. Control Flow Rates 9. Control Pollutants
4. Install Sediment Controls 10. Control De-Watering
5. Stabilize Soils 11. Maintain Best Management Practices
6. Protect Slopes 12. Manage The Project
Each of the twelve elements is described in more detail below:
1. Mark Clearing Limits
By minimizing the limits of clearing on the site, a builder can minimize stormwater runoff and provide
effective control of pollution.
2. Establish Construction Access
Much of the sediment that leaves a construction site does so on the wheels of delivery and construction
vehicles that drive off a project site. Construction access must be limited to a single location and a
properly constructed Stabilized Construction Entrance(BMP C105) should be included on the site.
3. Control Flow Rates
Stormwater that leaves a project site unimpeded may exceed the capacity of the existing stormwater
control facilities downstream and may contain sediment that may be deposited as the velocity of the
runoff decreases. Stormwater protection on a construction site should include measures to control the
flow rate of runoff from the site. This can be done by installing a Sediment Trap(BMP C240)or other
measure that will impede the flow of water off a construction site.
4. Install Sediment Controls
In addition to limiting the rate of stormwater flow off a construction site, measures should be put in place
to treat the runoff and remove sediment. Limiting of the cleared area (Element 1)will assist in this effort,
but there will be exposed soils that may move with the runoff. Suggested BMPs for controlling sediment
include Straw Bale Barriers(BMPC230), Brush Barrier(BMP C231), Gravel Filter Berm (BMP C232), and
Silt Fence(BMP C233). Installation of a Sediment Trap (Element 3)is an additional sediment control
feature.
construction SWPP.doc Page 1 10/12/2003
s
5. Stabilize Soils
An additional measure that can minimize sediment transport in runoff is to stabilize soils on the site with
mulch or some other covering. This will limit the amount of soil that is exposed to rainfall, thus limiting the
sediment that could potentially leave the site. BMPs that could be used for this include Mulching (BMP
C121), Nets and Blankets(BMP C122), and Plastic Covering(BMP C123). During periods of dry weather
dust can become a problem and sediment could be transported from the site in high winds. BMP C140
Dust Control should be followed to limit loss of soils in windy conditions.
6. Protect Slopes
If the cleared area includes slopes of 3:1 (Horizontal: Vertical)or steeper,the slopes should be protected
to limit runoff. If the slopes are not protected, rills and gullies may form,transporting sediment to the
lower elevations and potentially off the construction site. The slopes should be graded to minimize
erosion and runoff at the downstream end of the slopes, and runoff should be collected and treated. The
following BMPs could be used Surface Roughening (BMP C130), Interceptor Dike and Swale(BMP
C200), and Pipe Slope Drains(BMP C204).
7. Protect Drain Inlets
Runoff from urban construction sites often discharges into existing stormwater collection systems. Water
enters the collection system through drain inlets. If there are drain inlets downstream of a construction
site,they should be protected using BMP C220 Storm Drain Inlet Protection.
8. Stabilize Channels and Outlets
Any temporary on-site channels or ditches that are used to control runoff should be stabilized to prevent
erosion in the channel. BMP C202 Channel Lining and BMP C209 Outlet Protection should be used.
9. Control Pollutants
The best way to control pollution is to limit the source of pollution. Construction debris should be
maintained in a safe location. Vehicle maintenance on the construction site should be minimized and any
spill should be promptly cleaned up. Concrete spillage should be kept to a minimum and cleaning of the
concrete trucks after they have unloaded should be done in an area that will not drain off site(see BMP
C151 Concrete Handling).
10. Control Dewatering
In some cases, excavation for the foundation or below ground structures will encounter ground water.
This water must be removed(dewatered)from the excavation. Discharge of this ground water must be
treated in a manner that will not cause damage downstream due to flow rates or added pollution. There
are no specific BMP identified for this activity, but the water should be handled with care to assure that
soils or other pollutants are not added to this flow.
11. Maintain BMPs
Installation of the appropriate BMPs is not adequate to completely control stormwater runoff. The BMPs
that have been installed on the project must be inspected and maintained during the duration of the
construction project. In addition,the temporary controls that were installed for construction should be
removed within 30 days of completion of the work. Typically, once construction has been completed,the
temporary facilities are not maintained, and by removing the facilities, it will ensure that these won't fail
and discharge water or sediment that had been previously trapped or contained.
12. Manage the Project
Management of a project has four aspects:
1. Phasing construction to prevent transportation of runoff and sediment,
2. Limiting the work during seasons where large amounts of rainfall could be anticipated,
3. Coordination with Utilities and other Contractors, and
4. Inspection and Monitoring.
All of these for aspects are important and must be followed to ensure a project that will have minimal
impact on the environment. Volume II of the Manual contains additional BMPs that could be used on-site.
The applicant is encouraged to review the Manual to see if other BMPs may be applicable to, or more
useful on, a particular site.

treated in a manner that will not cause damage downstream due to flow rates or added pollution. There
are no specific BMP identified for this activity, but the water should be handled with care to assure that
soils or other pollutants are not added to this flow.
11. Maintain BMPs
Installation of the appropriate BMPs is not adequate to completely control stormwater runoff. The BMPs
that have been installed on the project must be inspected and maintained during the duration of the
construction project. In addition, the temporary controls that were installed for construction should be
removed within 30 days of completion of the work. Typically, once construction has been completed, the
temporary facilities are not maintained, and by removing the facilities, it will ensure that these won't fail
and discharge water or sediment that had been previously trapped or contained.
12. Manage the Project
Management of a project has four aspects:
1. Phasing construction to prevent transportation of runoff and sediment,
2. Limiting the work during seasons where large amounts of rainfall could be anticipated,
3. Coordination with Utilities and other Contractors, and
4. Inspection and Monitoring.
All of these for aspects are important and must be followed to ensure a project that will have minimal
impact on the environment. Volume II of the Manual contains additional BMPs that could be used on-site.
The applicant is encouraged to review the Manual to see if other BMPs may be applicable to, or more
useful on, a particular site.

DRAINAGE&EROSION CONTROL PLAN&PROJECT OVERVIEW
A single family residence (approx. 1,110 sq. ft. footprint) will be constructed in lot 17 of
Jackson Cove Park, address 190 Bee Mill Road,Jefferson County parcel number 963-
900-023; the lot is 0.274 acres in size. There is an existing home, garage, asphalt
driveway, and septic system on site. Total impervious area on the site is approximately
4,408 sq. ft. with approximately 575 sq. ft. of decking surrounding the residence.
Existing impervious surfaces cover approximately 36.9% of the parcel. The existing
home will be demolished and removed, along with a portion of the existing asphalt
driveway/parking to construct and install a new septic system. An existing green house
and covered platform have been removed. Upon completion of the proposed
development there will be a total of 3,902 sq. ft. of impervious surfacing (asphalt, garage
roof, proposed roof) and 250 sq. ft. of exposed decking. An anticipated 144 sq. ft. of
concrete will be poured surrounding a hot tub. The construction would result in the
removal of approximately 506 sq. ft. of impervious surfacing. The resulting percent
impervious area would be reduced to 32.7%.
Based on the Stormwater Calculation Worksheet(see attached) for Jefferson County, the
project is classified as a"small"project/redevelopment. With this classification only
Minimum Requirement#2 is applicable, which entails considering the twelve (12)
Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention (SWPP) Best Management Practices
during construction. The information packet is attached. Detailed erosion and sediment
control practices,procedures, and timing are outlined in the WESTECH COMPANY
Mitigation and Habitat Management Plan (MHMP), location of BMP's can be found on
the provided site plan.
Downspout splash blocks (minimum 3) should be constructed to promote dispersion and
infiltration of roof runoff. Based on the findings in the MHMP the soils in the proposed
construction area vary from Grove very gravelly sand (GrC) and Olete-Hoodsport
Complex (OpD). The first 20-30 inches of both soils are well draining, utilizing splash
blocks will allow for onsite retention/infiltration and help reduce erosion and rilling to the
east.
Construction activity will include the demolition and removal of existing asphalt and
home, excavation and grading for the proposed S.F.R., construction and installation of
the proposed septic system (designed by others), excavation and installation of new
utilities, construction of the proposed home, construction and installation of stormwater
structures (splash blocks), Construction of stairs/pathway to the tidal flats, delineation
and planting of proposed mitigation areas as identified in the MHMP, and the
stabilization of disturbed soils upon completion of construction.
Wastewater will be handled onsite through the use of a new septic system designed and
installed by others. 4M.ppA

STORMWATER CALCULATION WORKSHEET
M LA it PROJECT/APPLICANT NAME: 1140-$4.01A.‘Ntii DV„
DETERMINING STORM WATER MANAGEMENT REQUIREMENTS:This stormwater calculation worksheet should be completed first to
classify the proposal as "small," "medium," or "large." The size determines whether a Stormwater Site Plan is required in
conjunction with a stand-alone stormwater management permit application, building permit application,or other land use approval
application that involves stormwater review. The basic information will also be helpful for completing a Stormwater Site Plan, if
required.
PARCEL SIZE (I.E.,SITE)
Size of parcel 0.274 acres An acre contains 43,560 square feet. Multiply the acreage by this figure.
Size of parcel in square feet 1 1'935 _sq/ft
Land-disturbing activity is any activity that results in movement of earth, or a change in the existing soil cover (both vegetative and
non-vegetative)and/or the existing soil topography. Land disturbing activities include, but are not limited to clearing,grading,filling,
excavation,and compaction associated with stabilization of structures and road construction.
Native vegetation is vegetation comprised on plant species,other than noxious weeds,that are indigenous to the coastal region of
the Pacific Northwest and which reasonably could have been expected to naturally occur on the site. Examples include species such
as Douglas fir, western hemlock, western red cedar, alder, big-leaf maple, and vine maple; shrubs such as willow, elderberry,
salmonberry,and salal; herbaceous plants such as sword fern,foam flower,and fireweed.
LAND DISTURBING ACTIVITY,CONVERSION OF NATIVE VEGETATION, AND VOLUME OF CUT/FILL
Calculate the total area to be cleared, graded, filled, Answer the following two questions related to
excavated, and/or compacted for proposed development conversion of native vegetation:

Impervious surface is a hard surface that either prevents or retards the entry of water into the soil mantle as under natural
conditions prior to development. A hard surface area which causes water to run off the surface in greater quantities or at an
increased rate of flow from the flow present under natural conditions prior to development. Common impervious surfaces include,
but are not limited to roof tops,walkways, patios,driveways, parking lots or storage areas,concrete or asphalt paving,gravel roads,
packed earthen materials,and oiled,macadam or other surfaces which similarly impede the natural infiltration of stormwater.

Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Best Management Practices (BMPs) Packet
For"small"projects(as determined through the Stormwater Calculation Worksheet), the applicant shall
consider the twelve Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention elements and implement applicable
BMPs. A set of useful BMPs for typical rural residential construction is attached. There is no additional
submittal required as part of the permit application.
For"medium" and "large' projects, the Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is
part of the overall Stormwater Site Plan required as part of the permit application. Refer to the
Stormwater Management Information Sheet for guidance.
The following twelve elements must be considered for Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention
before and during the construction phase of the project:
1. Mark Clearing Limits 7. Protect Drain Inlets
2. Establish Construction Access 8. Stabilize Channels and Outlets
3. Control Flow Rates 9. Control Pollutants
4. Install Sediment Controls 10. Control De-Watering
5. Stabilize Soils 11. Maintain Best Management Practices
6. Protect Slopes 12. Manage The Project
Each of the twelve elements is described in more detail below:
1. Mark Clearing Limits
By minimizing the limits of clearing on the site, a builder can minimize stormwater runoff and provide
effective control of pollution.
2. Establish Construction Access
Much of the sediment that leaves a construction site does so on the wheels of delivery and construction
vehicles that drive off a project site. Construction access must be limited to a single location and a
properly constructed Stabilized Construction Entrance (BMP C105) should be included on the site.
3. Control Flow Rates
Stormwater that leaves a project site unimpeded may exceed the capacity of the existing stormwater
control facilities downstream and may contain sediment that may be deposited as the velocity of the
runoff decreases. Stormwater protection on a construction site should include measures to control the
flow rate of runoff from the site. This can be done by installing a Sediment Trap (BMP C240)or other
measure that will impede the flow of water off a construction site.
4. Install Sediment Controls
In addition to limiting the rate of stormwater flow off a construction site, measures should be put in place
to treat the runoff and remove sediment. Limiting of the cleared area (Element 1)will assist in this effort,
but there will be exposed soils that may move with the runoff. Suggested BMPs for controlling sediment
include Straw Bale Barriers(BMPC230), Brush Barrier(BMP C231), Gravel Filter Berm (BMP C232), and
Silt Fence (BMP C233). Installation of a Sediment Trap (Element 3) is an additional sediment control
feature.
construction SWPP.doc Page 1 10/12/2003
5. Stabilize Soils
An additional measure that can minimize sediment transport in runoff is to stabilize soils on the site with
mulch or some other covering. This will limit the amount of soil that is exposed to rainfall, thus limiting the
sediment that could potentially leave the site. BMPs that could be used for this include Mulching (BMP
C121), Nets and Blankets(BMP C122), and Plastic Covering (BMP C123). During periods of dry weather
dust can become a problem and sediment could be transported from the site in high winds. BMP C140
Dust Control should be followed to limit loss of soils in windy conditions.
6. Protect Slopes
If the cleared area includes slopes of 3:1 (Horizontal: Vertical) or steeper, the slopes should be protected
to limit runoff. If the slopes are not protected, rills and gullies may form, transporting sediment to the
lower elevations and potentially off the construction site. The slopes should be graded to minimize
erosion and runoff at the downstream end of the slopes, and runoff should be collected and treated. The
following BMPs could be used Surface Roughening (BMP C130), Interceptor Dike and Swale (BMP
C200), and Pipe Slope Drains (BMP C204).
7. Protect Drain Inlets
Runoff from urban construction sites often discharges into existing stormwater collection systems. Water
enters the collection system through drain inlets. If there are drain inlets downstream of a construction
site, they should be protected using BMP C220 Storm Drain Inlet Protection.
8. Stabilize Channels and Outlets
Any temporary on-site channels or ditches that are used to control runoff should be stabilized to prevent
erosion in the channel. BMP C202 Channel Lining and BMP C209 Outlet Protection should be used.
9. Control Pollutants
The best way to control pollution is to limit the source of pollution. Construction debris should be
maintained in a safe location. Vehicle maintenance on the construction site should be minimized and any
spill should be promptly cleaned up. Concrete spillage should be kept to a minimum and cleaning of the
concrete trucks after they have unloaded should be done in an area that will not drain off site(see BMP
C151 Concrete Handling).
10. Control Dewatering
In some cases, excavation for the foundation or below ground structures will encounter ground water.
This water must be removed (dewatered)from the excavation. Discharge of this ground water must be
treated in a manner that will not cause damage downstream due to flow rates or added pollution. There
are no specific BMP identified for this activity, but the water should be handled with care to assure that
soils or other pollutants are not added to this flow.
11. Maintain BMPs
Installation of the appropriate BMPs is not adequate to completely control stormwater runoff. The BMPs
that have been installed on the project must be inspected and maintained during the duration of the
construction project. In addition, the temporary controls that were installed for construction should be
removed within 30 days of completion of the work. Typically, once construction has been completed,the
temporary facilities are not maintained, and by removing the facilities, it will ensure that these won't fail
and discharge water or sediment that had been previously trapped or contained.
12. Manage the Project
Management of a project has four aspects:
1. Phasing construction to prevent transportation of runoff and sediment,
2. Limiting the work during seasons where large amounts of rainfall could be anticipated,
3. Coordination with Utilities and other Contractors, and
4. Inspection and Monitoring.
All of these for aspects are important and must be followed to ensure a project that will have minimal
impact on the environment. Volume II of the Manual contains additional BMPs that could be used on-site.
The applicant is encouraged to review the Manual to see if other BMPs may be applicable to, or more
useful on, a particular site.
