WATER
Water Within City Service Area:
• The proposed water system shall be designed and constructed to current City standards. [PMC 14.02.120]
Water Meter Options
Option 1
o Provide XXX dual meters to provide water to each of the XXX residences. This method charges each owner individually for water consumption.
Option 2
o Provide a single water meter and split water costs among tenants.
• Any wells on the site must be decommissioned in accordance with Washington State requirements. Documentation of the decommissioning must be provided along with submittal of engineering drawings. If an existing well is to remain, the well protection zone shall be clearly delineated, and appropriate backflow protection (Reduced Pressure Backflow Assemblies) shall be installed at all points of connection to the public water system. [PMC 14.02.220(3)(b)]
• A new water main line shall be extended to the site (CoP Water Department has indicated that looping will not be required for this property) sufficient to provide the necessary flows for both the domestic system and fire system. The minimum water pipe size shall be 8-inch diameter. (Exception: A 4-inch water main may be installed if either, 1) the proposed main is a dead-end line with no possibility of being expanded in the future, or 2) that portion of the proposed main beyond the last fire hydrant for the project.) [PMC 14.02.190, 14.20.010 & CS 301.1(1)]
• The applicant shall provide and install the water meters required to service the site. [PMC 14.02.120(f) & CS 301.3]
• The water main shall be located generally 10 or 12-feet west or south of roadway centerlines per city standard drawings. Any portion of the mainline extension located outside City right-of-way must be centered in a minimum 40-foot-wide easement granted to the City for maintenance purposes. [PMC 14.02.120(f) & CS 301.1(11)]
• The applicant shall be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the proposed water main located on private property.
• Any existing services that are to be abandoned at this site shall be disconnected at the main, the corp. stop removed, and the service plugged to city standards. [PMC 14.02.120(f)]
• The minimum distance between water lines and sewer lines shall be 10-feet horizontally and 18-inches vertically. If this criterion cannot be met, the design shall isolate the sewer and water lines by encasement, shielding or other approved methods.
• Fire flow requirements will likely trigger the upsizing of the 1923 4-inch cast-iron water main in W. Meeker to an 8-inch DI pipe. If this pipe is not upgraded the fire suppression system would need to connect to the 10-inch cast iron in W. Pioneer.
• According to the Downtown Puyallup Planned Action Mitigation Document the water main in W. Pioneer is slated for replacement by the City in 2036 (Water Main Replacement Project Number D-20). It is currently a 10-inch cast iron pipe and a 12-inch DI pipe is specified. Projects connecting to this section of pipe could be responsible for part or all of the cost and installation for the replacement of the line within the specified project borders and possibly off-site.

SEWER
• The proposed sewer system shall be designed and constructed to current City standards. [PMC 14.08.070]
• The City would prefer that the connection into the existing public system occur within W. Pioneer Ave. This pipe and the other possible candidate on W. Meeker Ave are both vitrified-clay pipes that are approximately 75 years old. Upgrades to these pipes would likely be necessary. [PMC 14.08.070, PMC17.42 & CS 401(14)]
• If any buildings on site are connected to septic tanks, the applicant shall abandon the existing septic systems per Pierce County Health Department regulations. A Septic/Pump Tank Decommissioning Certification form must be completed and submitted to the Source Protection Program Department at (253) 798-6470. Verification of certification must be provided PRIOR to final city approvals. [PMC 14.08.070]
• 6-inch minimum sewer is required for a commercial building site to the public main. A structure is needed to be placed at the property line to distinguish ownership/maintenance responsibility. 6-inch lines can use a cleanout. 8-inch lines require a manhole.
• Side sewers shall have a cleanout at the property line, at the building, and every 100 feet between the two points. [PMC 14.08.120 & CS 401(6)]
• The construction of an area drain for the trash enclosure, if proposed, will require the enclosure to be covered to prevent stormwater infiltration into the sewer system.
• Drainage for the underground parking shall be connected to the sanitary sewer system through an oil-water separator. [PMC 14.06.031 & CS 402.2]
• All private oil-water facilities shall be maintained in accordance with PMC 14.06.031. Under this Title, records and certification of maintenance shall be made readily available to the City for review and inspection and must be maintained for a minimum of three years. If the owner fails to properly maintain the facility, the City, after giving the owner notice, may perform necessary maintenance at the owner’s expense. [PMC 14.06.031 & CS 402.2]

STORMWATER
• Design shall occur pursuant to the 2012 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington as amended in December 2014 (The 2014 SWMMWW) and current City Standards. The City plans to transition to the 2019 Storm Water Manual for Western Washington on July 21st, 2022. [PMC 21.10.040]
• Preliminary feasibility/infeasibility testing for infiltration facilities shall be in accordance with the site analysis requirements of the Ecology Manual, Volume I, Chapter 3, specifically:
- Groundwater evaluation, either instantaneous (MR1-5) or continuous monitoring well (MR1-9) during the wet weather months (December 21 through April 1).
- Hydraulic conductivity testing:
o If the development triggers Minimum Requirement #7 (flow control), if the site soils are consolidated, or is encumbered by a critical area a Small-Scale Pilot Infiltration Tests (PIT) during the wet weather months (December 21 through April 1) is required.
o If the development does not trigger Minimum Requirement #7, is not encumbered by a critical area, and is located on soils unconsolidated by glacial advance, grain size analyses may be substituted for the Small Scale PIT test at the discretion of the review engineer.
- Testing to determine the hydraulic restriction layer.
- Mounding analysis may be required in accordance with Ecology Volume III Section 3.3.8.
• If infiltration facilities/BMPs are feasible, the number of tests shall be based on the area contributing to the proposed facility/BMP, e.g., one test for every 5,000 square feet of permeable pavement or one test for each bio-retention cell.
• Erosion control measures for this site will be critical. A comprehensive erosion control plan will be required as part of the civil permit application.
• In the pre-application request document provided by the client’s designer there is reference to the Downtown Puyallup Planned Action Mitigation Document and specifically to the Stormwater section regarding direct connections from new development in the core downtown area. In order for this to be viable, the projects referenced in the plan would need to have been built, and as of this meeting are still in very preliminary stages In other words, the project will have to conform with the current standard stormwater requirements.
• The applicant is responsible for submitting a preliminary stormwater management site plan (2 sets) which meets the design requirements provided by PMC 21.10 and Ecology Manual Volume I, Section 2.5.1. The preliminary stormwater site plan (PSSP) shall be submitted prior to Preliminary Site Plan approval to ensure that adequate stormwater facilities are anticipated prior to development of the individual lot(s). The preliminary stormwater site plan shall reasonably estimate the quantity of roof and driveway stormwater runoff and the application of On-site Stormwater Management BMPs for the proposed development.
• The applicant shall include a completed stormwater flowchart, Figure 3.1, contained in Ecology’s Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit, Appendix I with the stormwater site plan. The link below may be used to obtain the flowchart:
https://ecology.wa.gov/DOE/files/7a/7a6940d4-db41-4e00-85fe-7d0497102dfd.pdf
• Public right-of-way runoff shall be detained and treated independently from proposed private stormwater facilities. This shall be accomplished by providing separate publicly maintained storm facilities within a tract or dedicated right-of-way; enlarging the private facilities to account for bypass runoff; or other methods as approved by the City Engineer. [PMC 21.10.190(3)]
Stormwater Retention/Detention (R/D) Facilities:
• Overflow facilities shall be provided for any proposed R/D facilities in accordance with City standards. This may include a downstream analysis of up to a quarter mile.
• Stormwater R/D facilities shall be a minimum of 20-feet from any public right-of-way, tract, vegetative buffer, and/or property line measured from the toe of the exterior slope/embankment of the facility. [PMC 21.10 & DOE Manual, Vol. V, Pg. 10-9]
The following items shall be included at the time of Civil permit submittal:
o A permanent storm water management plan which meets the design requirements provided by PMC Section 21.10. The plan and accompanying information shall provide sufficient information to evaluate the environmental characteristics of the affected areas, the potential impacts of the proposed development on surface water resources, and the effectiveness and acceptability of measures proposed for managing storm water runoff. The findings, existing and proposed impervious area, facility sizing, and overflow control shall be summarized in a written report. [PMC 21.10.190, 21.10.060]
o A written technical report that clearly delineates any offsite basins tributary to the project site and includes the following information: [PMC 21.10.060]
o the quantity of the offsite runoff;
o the location(s) where the offsite runoff enters the project site;
o how the offsite runoff will be routed through the project site.
o the location of proposed retention/detention facilities
o and, the location of proposed treatment facilities
o All pipe reaches shall be summarized in a Conveyance Table containing the following minimum information and included in the report:
Pipe Reach Name Design Flow (cfs)
Structure Tributary Area Pipe-Full Flow (cfs)
Pipe Diameter (in) Water Depth at Design Flow (in)
Pipe Length (ft) Critical Depth (in)
Pipe Slope (%) Velocity at Design Flow (fps)
Manning’s Coefficient (n) Velocity at Pipe-Full Flow (fps)
HGL for each Pipe Reach Percent full at Design Flow (%)
o In the event that during civil design, there is insufficient room for proposed stormwater facilities in the area(s) shown, the stormwater area(s) shall be increased as necessary so the final design will be in compliance with current City Standards. This may result in the number of lots being reduced, or a reduction in other site amenities. [PMC 21.10.060(4), 21.10.150]
• All private storm drainage facilities shall be covered by a Stormwater Management & BMP Facilities Agreement provided by the City and recorded with Pierce County. Under this agreement if the owner fails to properly maintain the facilities, the City, after giving the owner proper notice, may perform necessary maintenance at the owner’s expense.
