STORMWATER CALCULATION WORKSHEET
MLA # PROJECT/APPLICANT NAME:
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.
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 natura l
conditions prior to development. A hard surface area which causes water to run off the surface in greater quantities or at a n
increased rate of flow from the flow present under natural conditions prior to development. Common impervious surfaces inclu de,
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.
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:

The following questions will help determine whether the proposed project is considered development or redevelopment.
FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS: If the answer is yes, the proposal is considered redevelopment and the attached Figure 2 should be used
to determine the applicable Minimum Requirements. If the answer is no, the proposal is considered new development and the
attached Figure 1 should be used. At this juncture, the applicant should refer to the applicable Flow Chart to determine the
Minimum Requirements for stormwater management. DCD staff will help verify the classification of the project and the application
requirements.
For proponents of “small” projects who must comply only with Minimum Requirement #2—Construction Stormwater Pollution
Prevention—an additional submittal is not required. The proponent is responsible for employing the 12 Elements to control erosion
and prevent sediment and other pollutants from leaving the site during the construction phase of the project. Pick up the
Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention (SWPP) Best Management Practices (BMPs) Packet . Proponents of “medium”
projects—those that must meet only Minimum Requirements #1 through #5—and for “large” projects—those that must meet all 10
Minimum Requirements—are required to submit a Stormwater Site Plan. DCD has prepared a submittal template of a Stormwater
Site Plan, principally for rural residential projects. Complete the template in the Stormwater Site Plan Instructions and Submittal
Template or prepare a Stormwater Site Plan using the step-by-step guidance in the Stormwater Management Manual.

Complete the following:
Minimum Requirement # 2 : Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
A SWPPP is designed to be a stand-alone document that addresses construction stormwater management concerns. This
document is required to be kept by the contractor performing the work at the jobsite for reference and update during
the life of the project. Construction BMP’s must be indicated on the stormwater site plan. REFERENCE B1A includes
diagrams of common BMP’s that may be used on the site plan.
My completed SWPPP (WORKSHEET B1 or equivalent) is included in this application packet!
Minimum Requirement # 3 : Source Control of Pollution (not construction related)
The intent of source control is to prevent stormwater from coming in contact with pollutants. Source control BMPs
can be operational or structural in nature. A roof over a material storage area is an example of a structural source
control BMP. Washing your vehicle on the lawn rather than in the street is an operational BMP. This requirement
is generally not applicable to Single Family Residences (SFRs); however, ways to minimize pollution from moving
downstream should be considered during the design phase of every project. Specifications on standard source control
BMPs that are applicable to various commercial and industrial-type facilities can be found in Volume IV of the 2014
Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington (SWMMWW) (continued on page 2).

Minimum Requirement # 4 : Preservation of Natural Drainage Systems
Creating new drainage patterns results in more site disturbance and more potential for erosion and sedimentation during
and after construction. to the maximum extent possible, proponents must 1) maintain the natural on-site drainage
pattern and concentrated discharge location at the downstream property boundary, and 2) prevent erosion at and
downstream of the discharge location.
NOTE: All outfalls require energy dissipation. See Table 4.5.1 in Vol. V of the SWMMWW for minimum design standards
for rock protection at outfalls.
Choose the option below that best describes your project:
page 3 of 6
The project site does not currently have any intermittent, seasonal, or continuous concentrated water
moving across any part of the property and the proposed improvements to the site will not create new
concentrated flow paths or not discharging to existing drainage systems.
The project site has existing concentrated flow drainage systems and outfalls. (NOTE: These items must
be graphically shown on the Site Plan or equivalent, to include: type, slope, dimensions, channel lining,
direction of flow, buffer, etc.) Select below how it will be addressed.
This project will not alter the existing drainage system in any way. If the existing outfall(s) show
signs of erosion and scour, energy dissipation measures will be installed or improved upon.
Construction activity of any kind will not occur within at least 10 ft. of the edge of the channelized
flow. BMP C102: BUFFER ZONES will be implemented during the life of the project to include visible
flagging or other demarcation technique.
The existing concentrated drainage system traversing the property will be impacted as part
of this project, as described in the space below and shown on the site plans. Engineering
calculations are required that show the altered drainage design can accommodate the existing
flows and the added runoff contributed by the project.

My project is a large project. Refer to Worksheet L. If full dispersion isn’t feasible, use LIST #1
(List #2 and List #1 are the same except raingardens are not permitted in List #2).
Minimum Requirement # 5 : On-site Stormwater Management
On-site stormwater management techniques shall be implemented where possible to accommodate the permanently
added stormwater runoff being generated by development. Some on-site stormwater management techniques provide
better stormwater detention and treatment than others; however, they are not always appropriate for use due to varying
individual site characteristics. Therefore, techniques are presented to applicants on the next pages in a hierarchical order
and shall be considered for use in the order listed. The first technique on the list that is determined to be possible shall
be implemented. See WORKSHEET C to determine which techniques are feasible.
Runoff from developments occurring in drainage basins that drain directly or indirectly to a creek require a higher level
of stormwater management, thus, the techniques are presented in three lists below:
All properties will be in one of these three categories:
My project is located in a drainage subbasin that
drains to directly or indirectly to freshwater.

preferably elevated within the base course, if flow control
benefits are desired.)
Roads that receive more than very low traffic volumes, and
areas having more than very low truck traffic. Roads with
a projected average daily traffic volume of 400 vehicles
or less are very low volume roads (AASHTO 2001) (U.S.
Department of Transportation, 2013). Areas with very low
truck traffic volumes are roads and other areas not subject
to through truck traffic but may receive up to weekly use by
utility trucks (e.g., garbage, recycling), daily school bus use,
and multiple daily use by pick-up trucks, mail/parcel delivery
trucks, and maintenance vehicles. Note: This infeasibility
criterion does not extend to sidewalks and other non-traffic
bearing surfaces associated with the collector or arterial.
