• 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:
• 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.
• 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.
• A survey prepared by a registered surveyor, showing the following is necessary for projects exceeding 2,000SF or more of new plus replace hard surfaces as defined by the 2019 Ecology Manual:
• Existing public and private development, including utility infrastructure on and adjacent to the site if publicly available
• Major hydrologic features with a streams, wetland, and water body survey and classification report showing wetland and buffer boundaries consistent with the requirements of the jurisdiction
• Minor hydrologic features, including seeps, springs, closed depression areas, drainage swales.
• Contours requirements for the survey are as follows:
• Up to 10 percent slopes, two-foot contours.
• Over 10 percent to less than 20 percent slopes, five-foot contours.
• Twenty percent or greater slopes, 10-foot contours.
• Elevations shall be at 25-foot intervals.
• The applicant is responsible for submitting a preliminary stormwater management site plan which meets the design requirements provided by PMC Section 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:

• 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)]
• The following items shall be included at the time of Civil permit submittal:
• 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]
• A written technical report that clearly delineates any offsite basins tributary to the project site and includes the following information: [PMC 21.10.060]
• the quantity of the offsite runoff;
• the location(s) where the offsite runoff enters the project site;
• how the offsite runoff will be routed through the project site.
• the location of proposed retention/detention facilities
• and, the location of proposed treatment facilities
• 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 link below may be used to obtain information to apply for this permit:

Review Comments:
1. Building plans will need to be complete with all building, mechanical, plumbing, energy code items and accessibility requirements that apply to the project. Current codes are the 2021 Washington State codes with Puyallup amendments. In general, local amendments other than administrative processes are limited to Fire Code elements for Fire Alarm, Fire Flow, Fire Sprinklers and Fire Access. Please see the Puyallup Municipal Code chapter 16 and 17.
2. The connection of the two parcels is not within Building’s scope.
3. The preliminary site plan shows a new gate and new yard lights, both of which may require a Building Permit. A single Building Permit may encompass both items (as applicable).
4. The foundation and anchorage of the lights will need to be engineered. Structural plans and calculations; reviewed, stamped, and signed by a Washington State licensed engineer will be required at the time of submittal. The new lights must meet applicable Washington State Energy Code requirements. The light fixture and electrical will be under the jurisdiction of the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries (L & I).
5. Permits are typically not required for Manual-only gates under 7 feet.
6. Automatic (motorized) gates are subject to additional design, safety, and installation standards. Even if they are under 7 feet, they must comply with requirements such as construction per ASTM F2200 and use of UL 325 listed openers. Power-operated (automatic) gates must able to be opened manually in the event of a power failure.
-- Building General Notes:
a. All electrical is permitted by the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries (L & I).
b. For all accessible requirements, the City adopted the 2021 IBC / WAC 51-50 and the ICC A117.1-2017 standard.
