RE: PLAN REVIEW COMMENTS FOR BUILDING PERMIT #BLD2015-1155
RESIDENTIAL REMODEL AT 16902 TALBOT ROAD
Dear Mr. O'Neill:
I have reviewed the above building permit application for the Planning Division, and it was
found that the following information is needed before review can continue:
Critical Areas Report:
Thank you for providing the geotechnical report dated September 4, 2015. The report notes
that the cxnstin,g storm% ater infiltration system will be replaced by installing a downslope
drainage system. Pursuant to the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC)
23.40.220.0.5, the installation of the drainage system is a minor utility allowed within a
critical area provided it meets the following:
5. Minor Utility Projects. Utility projects that have minor or short -duration impacts to
critical areas, as determined by the director in accordance with the criteria below, and
which do not significantly impact the function or values of a critical area(s); provided, that
such projects are constructed with best management practices and additional restoration
measures are provided. Minor activities shall not result in the transport of sediment or
increased storm water. Such allowed minor utility projects shall meet the following
criteria:
a. There is no practical alternative to the proposed activity with less impact on critical
areas;
b. The activity involves the placement of utility pole(s), street sign(s), anchor(s), or
vault(s) or other small component(s) of a utilityfacility; and
c. The activity involves disturbance of an area less than 75 square feet;
Please provide an addendum to the geotechnical report addressing each of the three criteria
listed above for the proposed stormwater drainage system.
NNo work will The done in the critical area at this time. Do not plan on discharging storm
water to BNSTF" right away at this time. Since we are not adding any impervious area
addition to the existing ,system should not be. required„ Storm water will run into existing
infiltration pit; through existing system. At the thnn.e BNSF issues permit a revisioirn for
storm water mitigation will be applied l"or.�
