Traffic scoping worksheet will be required for this project. The City policy requires the project trips to be estimated using the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) Trip Generation, 11th Edition. In general, trip generation regression equations shall be used when the R2 value is 0.70 or greater. For single-family units and offices smaller than 30,000 SF, use ITE’s Trip Generation, average rate. The project trips shall be rounded to the nearest tenth. Trip credits would be allowed for any existing development. Once the traffic scoping worksheet is reviewed, a written response would be sent to the applicant’s traffic engineer outlining the scope of the project’s Traffic Impact Study (TIS). The city has adopted a City-Wide Traffic Impact Fee of $4,500 per PM peak hour trip. Final fees will be calculated and assessed by the City at the time of building permit issuance. Per Puyallup Municipal Code Section 11.08.135, the applicant/owner would be expected to construct half-street improvements including curb, gutter, planter strip, sidewalk, roadway base, pavement, and street lighting. Any existing improvements which are damaged now or during construction, or which do not meet current City Standards, shall be replaced. o E Pioneer is classified as a Major Arterial and shall consist of curb, gutter, 8’ sidewalks, 10ft planter strip, and streetlights. The improvements shall be from street centerline. Assuming a symmetrical cross section, additional right-of-way (ROW) may need to be dedicated to the city. This commercial development shall provide an AutoTurn analysis for the largest anticipated vehicle that would access the site. Curb radii and entrance dimensions shall be increased as necessary to allow vehicles to access the site without encroaching into adjacent lanes of traffic. This analysis will be required during civil permit review. At the time of civil permit review provide a separate street lighting plan and pavement striping plan (channelization) sheet for the city to review. Sight distance analysis required E Pioneer along the site is designated as a major arterial. City standards (Section 101.10.1) require minimum driveway/intersection spacing of 300 feet for arterials, measured between closest edges of each access.

Other/Miscellaneous

Access - The existing driveway location on E Pioneer (option B) would be required. Given the characteristics of this road segment (speed, volume, geometry, channelization, etc), the E Pioneer driveway would be restricted to a right-in/right-out. Initial Trip Generation Comments - Given the existing land use on the adjacent site (fast food, medical, fitness, retail, etc.) the proposed LU assumptions would likely underrepresent future trip generation. LU 822 would be more appropriate. The size assumptions for the existing two buildings (to be demolished) are smaller than documented in scoping memo (5,935 & 1,740 sqft).

WATER Water Within City Service Area: • The proposed water system shall be designed and constructed to current City standards. [PMC 14.02.120] • 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, and through, the site 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 & CS 301.1(1)] • The applicant shall provide and install the water meters required to service the site. Domestic service water meters shall be located within the public ROW, or in the case of a private road adjacent to the road section, in accordance with City Standards. [PMC 14.02.120(2)(f) 14.02.220(2) & CS 301.3] • 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. • A 2-inch blow-off assembly is required on dead-end water mains except where fire hydrants are installed at the dead-end. [PMC 14.02.120(f) & CS 301.1(7)] • Water pipe and service connections shall be a minimum of 10-feet away from building foundations and/or roof lines. • The applicant is required to provide backflow protection on the domestic line(s) in accordance with City Standards. The minimum level of protection would be a double check valve assembly (DCVA). However, the city requires a reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) for any use considered to be a high hazard as outlined in WAC 246-290-490 Table 9. PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] • If an RPBA is not appropriate then the applicant shall provide backflow protection with the installation of a double check valve assembly (DCVA) on the domestic connection to the public water main, if one does not currently exist. A plumbing permit is required for this work to be completed; and the unit should be located outside the building, immediately downstream of the existing water meter if possible. If an irrigation system is also proposed, a DCVA is required on that line as well. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302.2] Backflow Protection • A reduced pressure backflow assembly (RPBA) may be required on the domestic line at each location where the proposed water main connects to the public system. If an irrigation system is proposed, a DCVA is required on that line. [PMC 14.02.220(3) & CS 302] • The following list shows examples of uses and industries where an RPBA is probably required: • Agricultural (farms and dairies) • Beverage bottling plants • Car washes • Chemical Plants • Commercial laundries and dry cleaners • Premises where both reclaimed and potable water are provided • Film processing facilities • Food processing plants • Hospitals, medical and dental centers, nursing homes and veterinary • Blood and plasma centers • Premises with separate irrigation systems using the purveyor’s water with chemical addition • Laboratories • Metal plating industries • Mortuaries • Petroleum processing or storage plants • Piers and docks • Radioactive material processing plants or nuclear reactors • Wastewater lift stations and treatment plants • Premises with an unapproved auxiliary water supply interconnected with potable supply Fire Requirements (applies to both City Water and Water Purveyors): 1. Fire flow requirements are dependent on the construction type and size. Buildings >10K SF requires sprinklers. Note if fire partition walls are used this reduces this 10k SF to that area protected by the fire walls. 2. Hydraulic analysis is generally required by Fire. The reviewer needs to coordinate the system and pipe size based on this analysis. The volume capacity for dead end lines are limited by Velocity. Q=VA where V is limited by 10FPS per city standards. 3. Engineering is focused on some water quality benefits, we don’t want domestic water to come off a dead-end hydrant line as this water is commonly stagnant and tastes funny. Fire is generally not worried about this. If a hydrant is shown in the middle of a private site, the project likely needs fire sprinklers. 4. A wet pipe fire sprinkler system constantly has water in the pipes. This type of sprinkler system requires a DCVA backflow device, which requires a plumbing permit to install the backflow. 5. A dry pipe sprinkler system uses pressurized air in the pipe which is released when the water is released, this system does not require a backflow device. • For commercial/townhome developments each building shall have its own fire sprinkler system with a dedicated fire service line. • The domestic service line and fire system service line shall have a separate, independent connection to the supply main. A Double Check Valve Assembly (DCVA) will be required near the property line at the point of connection to the public main. The fire sprinkler Double Detector Check Valve Assembly (DDCVA) may be located either inside, or outside, of the building. • The sprinkler supply line shall be designed, and shown on the plan, into the building to the point of connection to the interior building riser. Provide plan and elevation detail(s) where the riser enters the building with dimensions, clearances, and joint restraint in accordance with NFPA 24. A post indicator valve (PIV) shall be provided for the fire sprinkler system in advance of the DDCVA. [PMC 14.02, CS 302.3, & CS 303] • Fire hydrants shall be placed so that there is a minimum of 50-feet and a maximum 150-feet of separation from hydrants to any building walls. [PMC 16.08.080 & CS 301.2, 302.3] • Maximum hydrant run is 20-feet. Hydrant runs that exceed this distance shall be served by a mainline with the hydrant feed line set at right angles to the supply main. • The Fire Department Connection (FDC) shall be located no closer than 10-feet and no further than 15-feet from a fire hydrant. [CS 302.3] • Available fire flow for the project site must be determined by hydraulic modeling conducted by the City’s consultant. The cost of this analysis is $600 and shall be paid by the applicant. • Utility extensions shall be approved and permitted prior to any building permit issuance. [PMC 14.02.130] • Prior to completion of any future watermain extension, the engineer-of-record shall complete the State Department of Health’s “Construction Completion Report for Distribution Main Projects”, professional engineering seal, and provide a copy to the City.

[PMC 14.08.070, 17.42 and CS 400] • The sanitary sewer mains shall be 8 inch minimum and located 5-feet east or north of roadway centerlines. In accordance with PMC 14.20.020, sewer main extensions shall be carried across the full width of the property being served except in those cases where, in the opinion of the city engineer, the utility involved can never, under any circumstances, be extended beyond the property being served. [PMC 14.20 and 17.42] • 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] • Side sewers shall have a cleanout at the property line (to distinguish ownership/maintenance responsibility), at the building, and every 100 feet between the two points. [PMC 14.08.120 & CS 401(6)] • If the proposed side sewer is greater than 6-inches, a sanitary sewer manhole shall be provided at the property line. • Sewer main pipe and service connections shall be a minimum of 10-feet away from building foundations and/or roof lines. • The City Sewer Department must conduct a visual inspection of a previously used side sewer to determine if that side sewer can be used again. Existing laterals must meet current standard to be used again. It is the responsibility of the property owner to expose the line as necessary for that inspection. The City reserves the right to request video inspection of the side sewer to assist in its determination. Redevelopment projects shall utilize the existing trench where possible. [CS 401(15) & CS 401(16)] • Grease Interceptors are required for all commercial facilities involved in food preparation. The applicant shall install an external grease interceptor in accordance with the current edition of the Uniform Plumbing Code adopted by the City of Puyallup, Puyallup Municipal Code, and City standard details.

STORM • Design shall occur pursuant to the 2019 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington and current City Standards. [PMC 21.10] ANSWERS TO SPECIFIC QUESTIONS: the construction of a new building or expansion of the existing building of approximately 15,000 square feet will require the design of a storm system that encompasses all of the Minimum Requirements from the refenced Ecology manual. Expanding the current system to incorporate the new construction will require the compliance of the entire system to 2019 standards. The distinction of attached or not attached to the current building does not matter in the context of storm and new hard surfaces. You could potentially design and build a stand alone system for the new hard surfaces (roofs, parking and walkways). Adding the required capacity to the other metered utilities will be the responsibility of your designer/engineer. If the buildings are connected and all of the connections are made inside that will be reviewed by BUILDING. If the new building is separated and new pipes need to be installed outside of the building, that will be shown on the civil drawings. • Preliminary feasibility/infeasibility testing for infiltration facilities shall be in accordance with the site analysis requirements of the Ecology Manual, Volume III, Chapter 3.2, specifically: - Groundwater evaluation, either instantaneous (MR1-5) or continuous monitoring well (MR1-9) during the wet weather months (December 1 through April 1). If you are not sure about whether or not your project is required to perform this wet weather long term monitoring, then check with the review engineer from the city. For this project it will almost definitely be required. It is imperative that this monitoring is performed early in the design process so that the results can be utilized for storm design. Without it, the project could be delayed by a full year. - 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 1 through April 1) is required for properties under 1 acre. Properties that are over 1 acre that have predicted low infiltration rates should perform Large Scale PIT Tests for better accuracy. 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 V Section 5.2.7. • 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. • Upon submission of the geotechnical infiltration testing, appropriate long-term correction factors shall be noted for any areas utilizing infiltration into the underlying native soils in accordance with the Ecology Manual. Provide the long-term infiltration rate calculation in the stormwater report. • The applicant is responsible for submitting a preliminary stormwater management site plan which meets the design requirements provided by PMC 21.10 and Ecology Manual Volume I, Section 3.4.1. 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 I-3.1 for New Development or Figure I-3.2 for Redevelopment in the Stormwater/Drainage Report. • 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] • Development and redevelopment projects are required to employ, wherever feasible, Low Impact Development (LID) Best Management Practices (BMPs) to meet the design criteria set forth in PMC 21.10.190, the Ecology Manual Volume I, Minimum Requirement 5; Volume III, Chapter 3; and Volume V, Chapter 5.

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] • When using WWHM for analysis, provide the following WWHM project files with the civil permit application: o Binary Project File (WHM File Extension) o ASCII Project File (WH2 File Extension) o WDM File (WDM File Extension) o WWHM Report Text (WORD File) • The permanent storm water management plan shall clearly delineate any offsite basins tributary to the project site and include 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 • All pipe reaches shall be summarized in a Conveyance Table containing the following minimum information and included in the report: o Pipe Reach Name o Structure Tributary Area o Pipe Diameter (in) o Pipe Length (ft) o Pipe Slope (%) o Manning’s Coefficient (n) o HGL for each Pipe Reach o Design Flow (cfs) o Water Depth (in), Velocity (fps) and Percent Full (%) at Design Flow o Flow (cfs) and Velocity (fps) at Pipe-Full o Critical Depth (in) • In the event that during civil design, there is insufficient room for proposed stormwater facilities in the area(s) shown on the plans, 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] • If the use of an above-ground combined treatment-storage facility is proposed for flow control and water quality treatment, the geometric characteristics of the facility design shall be in accordance with the Ecology Manual, and the following criteria: o A licensed professional geotechnical engineer shall determine the maximum seasonal high groundwater elevation at the location of the combined facility. o The applicant shall clearly indicate the static water surface elevation for the top of the wetpool/bottom of the storage volume. o The maximum seasonal high groundwater elevation shall be below the static water surface elevation of the wetpool. • If the applicant proposes to use bioretention cells for water quality treatment, the following notes shall be added to the civil design plans: o “At the completion of the bioretention cells construction, the engineer-of-record shall provide a written statement to the City of Puyallup that the bioretention cells were built per the approved design.” o “The bioretention soil media (BSM) supplier shall certify in writing that the bioretention soil media meets the guidelines for Ecology-approved BSM including mineral aggregate gradation, compost guidelines, and mix standards as specified in the 2012 Low Impact Development Technical Guidance Manual for Puget Sound. And, if so verified, no laboratory infiltration testing, cation exchange, or organic content testing is required.” • Overflow facilities shall be provided at the low points of any proposed permeable pavement areas to allow safe discharge to the downstream public storm system. • Trench dams shall be provided at the property line for utilities located below infiltrative facilities including, but not limited to, permeable pavements and bioretention facilities. [CS Detail 06.01.10] • Construction of frontage improvements associated with this project may require installation/extension of the stormwater main to accommodate road runoff. Any new stormwater main shall be adequately sized to accommodate any upstream basins tributary to main. • A Construction Stormwater General Permit shall be obtained from the Department of Ecology if any land disturbing activities such as clearing, grading, excavating and/or demolition will disturb one or more acres of land, or are part of larger common plan of development or sale that will ultimately disturb one or more acres of land. The application must be made 60 days prior to the discharge of any stormwater from the site. The link below may be used to obtain information to apply for this permit: http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/wq/stormwater/construction/ • If review of the minimum requirements indicate that MR#8 is required then an analysis from a wetland biologist and/or hydrogeologist shall be submitted in accordance with Ecology manual Appendix I-C. This analysis will review your proposed discharge rate/duration/quality to the wetland and determine if there are any potential changes to the hydroperiod or impacts to the wetland ecosystem. The analysis will have to include a review of your offsite analysis and WWHM model as part of their determination. The stormwater report will need to be altered to include the analysis and any of the wetland Biologists/hydrogeologists recommendations to address any potential impact. This analysis will also have to be reviewed by planning to ensure that the analysis addresses their critical area code requirements. • All private storm drainage facilities shall be covered by a Maintenance Agreement provided by the City and recorded with Pierce County.
