Re: West River Farms - Open Space Dedication
Along the Scantic River (329, 339 &341 Scantic Road, East Windsor, CT)
Dear Ms. Lipe,
On behalf of our client,West River Farms LLC,we have enclosed with this cover letter the applicable land
use applications for Open Space Dedication&site improvements associated with the West River Farms
Subdivision on Scantic Road in East Windsor, including:
1. Minor Modification to Inland Wetlands,Watercourses and Conservation Approval
2. Special Exception for Open Space recreational park not operated for profit
3. Site Plan Modification for drainage and gravel access road improvements
On October 3, 2012,the South Windsor Inland Wetlands Agency/Conservation Commission approved
application #12-40W-West River Farms LLC - 329 &341 Scantic Road, East Windsor. The approval was
to construct a gravel access road and stormwater control structures including a stormwater quality basin
and outlet along the north bank of the Scantic River. These improvements were proposed in association
with a 58-Lot residential subdivision development along Scantic Road in East Windsor known as West
River Farms.
The applicant has since modified its development plans incorporating an additional parcel of land (339
Scantic Road) and proposing a 69-Lot subdivision. As before,the subdivision is contained entirely within
the boundaries of East Windsor, and the applicant proposes to dedicate the remaining land as open space.
The proposed open space parcel contains approximately 19.5 acres with 17 acres in South Windsor along
the Scantic River and 2.5 acres in East Windsor. The open space parcel includes a private roadway off of
Scantic Road known as Schanck Road which will serve as the primary access for the open space.
The applicant proposes to deed the open space parcel in fee to the East Windsor Boy Scout Building
Committee. The Boy Scouts are enthusiastic about this opportunity and look forward to attending the
PZC Special Exception hearing to explain their interest in owning and maintaining the property. They
have indicated that in addition to Boy Scout use,the parcel will be open to the general public.
The proposed changes to the residential development in East Windsor do not require any modification to
the approved improvements in South Windsor, but in response to preliminary comments from your

SERVING CONNECTICUT & MASSACHUSETTS
Re: West River Farms - Open Space Dedication
Along the Scantic River (329, 339 &341 Scantic Road, East Windsor, CT)
M
emergency services staff,we have revised the plans to 1) widen the gravel access road from 10 feet (8'at
the wetland crossing) to a standard 18'width and 2) add a hammerhead turnaround area near the South
Windsor town line.
The wider access road results in 303 s.f of wetland disturbance at the wetland crossing. Alternatives to
this disturbance include 1) leaving the access road as previously approved or 2) narrowing the access
road at the crossing, but both of these alternatives would deviate from recommendations from your
emergency services staff. The applicant is agreeable to whichever alternative the IWWA deems most
prudent.
We were recently informed that in addition to a wetland permit, PZC requires a special exception permit
for the open space use and a site plan modification application for the proposed improvements. We have
enclosed four sets of the applicable sheets from our development plans along with the applications and
fees. Please let us know when we can present this proposal to IWWA and PZC.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter. If you have any questions, or need additional information,
please let us know.
Sincerely,

69 Lot Single Family Residential Open Space Subidivision(PRD SOUTHWINDSORPLANN�► DEPT
Scantic Road, East Windsor, CT
November 17, 2014
NARRATIVE:
West River Farms, LLC proposes to construct a 69-Lot residential open space subdivision on
a 41± acre parcel of land which is bisected by the East Windsor/South Windsor town line.
The parcel contains approximately 24 acres in East Windsor with access to Scantic Road in
East Windsor, Connecticut. The rear of the parcel contains approximately 17 acres in South
Windsor bounded to the east by the Scantic River.
All 69 of the building lots are located in East Windsor, while all of the South Windsor portion
and part of the East Windsor property will be deeded as open space to the DEEP, the
respective towns or an approved land trust.
The southwest corner of the parcel includes a private roadway known as Schanck Road which
serves the abutters southwest of the subject parcel.
The proposed development in East Windsor consists of approximately 3,800 feet of new
public roadways to be maintained by the Town of East Windsor. The project includes a
stormwater collection system for the new roadways and a portion of Scantic Road and
Schanck Road. The applicant proposes to construct a wet pond within the open space
property in South Windsor. The proposed storm drainage system will be piped to a new wet
pond within the open space parcel in South Windsor for stormwater treatment prior to
discharge to the Scantic River. An easement in favor of the Town of East Windsor will be
provided over Schanck Road to the wet pond for rights to discharge and maintenance of the
stormwater system.
Drainage System Sizing
The proposed storm drainage system was sized for a 10-year storm event. Contributing.
watershed areas (A)to each catch basin were delineated as shown on the attached Drainage
Area Map. Peak flow rates were computed using the Rational Method:
Q =AxCxi
Runoff Coefficients (C) were taken from Table 6-3 of the CT DOT Drainage Manual (DOT),
see attached. The Hartford County Soil Survey identifies the on-site soils as mostly Windsor
loamy fine sand and Penwood loamy sand which are classified as type A soils. According to
-1-
Table 6-3, C values for these soils range from .04 to .18 depending on slope of the
topography. We conservatively assumed a constant C of 0.15 for all pervious areas and 0.9
for impervious areas.
Rainfall intensity(i) for the 10-year storm event was taken from the DOT Table B-2.1
assuming a duration equal to the Time of Concentration (Tc). The Tc represents the time it
takes for runoff to travel from the most remote point in the watershed to the discharge point.
The Tc for each subcatchment was determined using methodology recommended by the DOT.
Flow paths for the largest subcatchments are also shown on the Drainage Area Map. The TR-
55 method of combining sheet, shallow concentrated, and open channel flow times was
considered for determining specific Tc, but the results were highly dependent on the assumed
length of sheet flow. This methodology was developed based on research of large drainage
areas of 200 acres or more. For small watersheds such as this one, sheet flow areas that
comprise more than 80% of Tc may not actually contribute to the subcatchment's peak flow
rate. Rather than attempt to exclude the sheet flow areas from the watershed,we
conservatively assume minimum Tc for each subcatchment. DOT recommends a minimum
Tc of 5 minutes for paved areas and 10 minutes for grassed areas. Travel Time (Tt)between
structures was estimated using Manning's Formula assuming pipes flowing full or half full.
This is also conservative as the velocities during the Tc development would not yet reach their
peak rates. Dividing the length of flow by the velocity produced the Tt. The subcatchment Tc
was compared to the upstream combination of Tc +Tt. The larger of the two values was used
to computed the design Tc continuing downstream.
A summary of this analysis is showing on the attached Pipe Sizing Chart. The results
demonstrate that each pipe in the proposed network has a full flow capacity in excess of the
10-year design storm.
Gutter Flow Analysis
Each drainage inlet grate was sized in accordance with Table 11-2 of the DOT Drainage
Manual for Local Roads with<3,000 ADT except that a 10-year design storm was used for
non-sag conditions rather than a 5-year storm. Table 11-2 permits an allowable design spread
of no more than %Z lane width(6.5' assuming no shoulder and up to 8' assuming a 10' lane
with 3' shoulder) for non-sag conditions.
For sag conditions, Table 11-2 permits a maximum spread of"all except one lane width"
(combined left and right spread no more than 13 feet assuming no shoulder and up to 16'
assuming a 10' lane with 3' shoulder). To achieve these requirements, some drainage
structures were changed to double grates.
Using Manning's Formula, the actual gutter flow width(T) can be computed given a known
flow rate (Qlo),roughness coefficient(n=0.013 for smooth texture asphalt pavement),
-2-
longitudinal slope (S) and cross slope (SX 3.125%). The following formula was taken from
the DOT Drainage Manual Figure 11-1.1, solving for T:
T= [Q x n/(0.56 x SX1.67 x 50.5)(1/2.67)
The flow rate (Q)to each grate inlet is a combination of the overland flow within the
structure's watershed, and the bypass flow from the upstream structures. The overland flow is
determined by Rational Method (A x C x i). A rainfall intensity(i) of 4.8 in/hr was used for
watersheds with significant pervious areas, while watersheds of mostly impervious area
(>50%) used an intensity of 6.0 in/hr. Once a structure in the chain was identified at the lower
intensity, all subsequent downstream structures were also computed by the lower intensity.
This methodology is conservative because it neglects travel time along the gutter(since the
bypass flow represents only a portion of the total flow to the inlet).
Bypass gutter flow is proportional to the cross sectional flow area beyond the grate width(W).
The attached Gutter Flow Analysis Chart computes the flow(Q) and width(T) for each
structure and demonstrates that the maximum spread requirements are met. CB#4 & CB#5
were excluded because their contributing watershed was assumed to be insignificant. CB#23-
25 were also excluded because they are in existing Scantic Road which has no curbing. Any
gutter flow relief(such as when winter snow banks create a berm condition) will be an
improvement over existing conditions.
For structures in sag condition, equation 11.7 from the DOT Drainage Manual, was used to
compute the gutter spread(T) during weir flow conditions (<0.4 ft depth), by dividing the
depth (d) by the cross slope(SX):
T= [QCFS/(CP)]2/3/SX
where:
Q =flow rate into grate opening(cfs)
P =perimeter of grate excluding bar widths and the side against the curb, 5.02 ft. for
single grates and 7.33 for double grates
C =weir coefficient, 3.0
CFS =factor of safety for clogging, 1.0 with curb inlet
SX=cross slope(ft/ft)
This analysis required selection of Type II double grate structures at CB#22, 21, 11, 2 and 1.
Due to the extent of bypass to CB#2, upstream structures CB#6 & CB#8 were converted to
Type I double grates. This reduced the spread at CB#2 to 6.7 feet. Combining this with the
spread at CB#1 of 6.3 feet, a full lane width of(26—6.7—6.3) 13 feet is maintained.
-3-
Wet Pond Sizing
The stormwater basin is designed as an in-line wet pond to provide water quality treatment for
the project before discharging to a new riprap scour hole along the edge of the Scantic River.
The wet pond was designed in accordance with the 2004 Connecticut Stormwater Quality
Manual. The required water quality volume (WQV)was computed as follows:
WQV = (1")(R)(A)/12
where:
WQV = water quality volume (ac-ft)
R = volumetric runoff coefficient(0.05+0.009(I))
I = percent impervious cover(%)
A = watershed area(acres)
The drainage area of the wet pond is 28.3 acres with 7.77 acres of impervious surface
(including new roof area). There are 53.5 new roofs within the wet pond watershed. The
conceptual plan shows an average roof footprint of 2,000 s.f. Since at least 75% of these
roofs will be infiltrated,the impervious area needing treatment can be reduced as followed:
53.5 x 75% x 2,000 s.f. /43,560 s.f./ac. = 1.84 acres
Our net treatable impervious coverage within the wet pond watershed is therefore:
7.77— 1.84 =5.93 acres or 20.9%
Therefore,the WQV was computed as follows:
WQV = (1)(0.05+0.009(20.9))(28.3)/12 =0.562 acre-ft x 43,560 sf/ac=24,460 cf
The pond forebay was sized to contain 10% of the WQV plus sediment storage. The annual
sediment load was computed as follows:
Sed. = 28.3 ac. x 1.0 tons/ac./yr. x 2000 lb/ton/85 lb/cf=665 cf/yr
The proposed pond has the following capacity:
Forebay:
Elev. Area(sf) Inc. Vol. (cf) Total Vol. (cf)
26.5 861 0 0 (bottom)
28 1,785 1,943 1,943
29.5 2,877 3,464 5,407 (forebay volume)
-4-
Wet Pond(Including Forebay):
Elev. Area(sf) Inc. Vol. (cf) Total Vol. (cfl
26.5 2,41.6 0 0 (bottom)
28 4,855 5,348 5,348
29.5 7,630 9,286 14,634
29.5 10,585 0 14,634
30 11,691 5,567 20,200
30.5 12,729 6,103 26,303 (permanent pool volume)
The forebay therefore has the following sediment capacity:
5,407 c.f. —(24,460 c.f. x 10%) =2,961 c.f/665 c.f/yr=4.5 years
Groundwater Recharge
Individual StormTech SC-740 chambers are proposed to infiltrate runoff. The StormTech
chambers are sized to accommodate the first 1"of runoff from the roofs. Each SC-740 unit
provides 45.9 c.f. of storage. The smallest conceptual building footprint shown is 1,540 s.f.
These houses would require:
1,540 x 1"/12/45.9=3 chambers
The largest foreseeable footprint(based on max. building coverage)would be 2,500 s.f.,
which would require:
2,500 x F712/45.9=5 chambers
Therefore, 3 to 5 infiltration chambers will be installed on at least 41 of the 54 units within the
wet pond watershed, where suitable soils and water table depths are found. Preliminary
investigations indicate this is a feasible quantity for the site.
Outlet Protection
Outlet velocities to the forebay will be minimized by use of a drop manhole structure.
Intermediate riprap is proposed to armor the slope from the outlet to the bottom of the
forebay.
The discharge point for the wet pond will be armored with a preformed scour hole designed in
accordance with the CT DOT Drainage Manual. A scour hole size of 15'xl8'xl.5' was
selected from Table 8-8.1 for a 36"pipe.
=5-
Riprap was sized for a 10-year storm event assuming a conservative tailwater depth of 0.5'.
Since the scour hole is in a floodplain, the actual tailwater depth will likely be greater. The
results of the riprap sizing are as follows:
Qlo=33.3 cfs
Sp =Rp=3
d50 =(0.0125Rp2/TW)(Qlo/Rp2.5)1.33
_ (0.0125(3)2/0.5)(33.3/(3)2.5)'-" =0.62' <0.67 (int. riprap)
Conclusion
Due to the proximity of the project to the Scantic River, detention of stormwater is not
advisable. Detaining runoff would delay the peak discharge to coincide with peaks from
upstream flows,potentially resulting in impacts downstream. Infiltration of roof runoff will
be utilized where soil conditions permit to encourage recharge and mitigate increases in runoff
volume. The proposed wet pond will provide stormwater quality treatment including removal
of at least 80% of total suspended solids (TSS). The proposed drainage system is designed in
accordance will accepted engineer practices and in our opinion will not adversely impact
downstream properties.

Re: West River Farms, LLC
Dear Michele:
I am sending this letter to you and to Jeff Folger, because I think it is of general interest
to the Town of South Windsor and of particular interest to the Inland Wetlands
Commission.
I am the attorney for West River Farms, LLC, which presently has an application
pending before the Inland Wetlands Commission of the Town of South Windsor.
At the Inland Wetland Commission meeting, questions came up regarding the
ownership of the property that my client owns in South Windsor within the area
regulated by the Inland Wetland Commission of the Town of South Windsor.
I am only writing this letter to discuss one aspect of the proposal. Apparently, at the
previous Inland Wetland Commission meeting, questions came up regarding the
ownership of the open space. First of all, 1 do not believe that the question of the
ownership of the open space is a matter that would come under the jurisdiction of the
Inland Wetland Commission. The Inland Wetland Commission regulates activities
rather than ownership. However, that said, we do feel very comfortable in advising you
that the open space will come under the ownership of the East Windsor Scout Hall
Building Committee, Inc. This organization is a non-profit charitable organization that
has been in existence in the Town of East Windsor for over twenty years. Although this
organization is youth oriented and was created initially to provide a facility for the Boy
Scouts, this organization operates and maintains other properties which are used for
activities in the Town of East Windsor. Therefore, this organization is a logical
organization to own the open space, both because of the purpose for its existence and
because of its good track record.
Just for your information, at this point, the group not only operates and maintains a
6,000 square foot facility which was opened in the year 2000, and the organization has
acquired other properties, including a 22 acre parcel on Scantic Road in East Windsor.
The Town of East Windsor has expressed its desire to have this organization own the
open space, and we believe it is a good and proper organization to do so.
I am writing this letter with the hope that it will be helpful to the Inland Wetland
Commission in South Windsor.
Very t y y ccur ,

Re: Scantic Road Project
Attorney Jacobs,
I am in receipt of your letter dated February 27th regarding the access driveway width. There
appears to be a question of 8 feet vs. 18 feet and the question as to whom requested the 18'
width.
I have reviewed the project with Walter Summer, South Windsor Fire Marshal. He is the one
that originally proposed the 18 foot width based on his concerns for the Fire Department.
After review of the plans, I also contacted the Warehouse Point Fire Chief, James Barton
regarding the project. As you indicated, the housing portion of the project is all in East Windsor,
protected by the Warehouse Point Fire District while the access driveway and park along the
Scantic River is all in South Windsor. The two Fire Departments will be meeting at a later date
to discuss response coverage.
To get back to the access driveway width, we all (SW Fire Chief, SW Fire Marshal and WHPT
Fire Chief) agree that the width should be 16 feet. Should there be a need for fire apparatus or
other emergency vehicle access, 16 feet would give us the needed space, less than the original
quote of 18 feet and even less than the business fire lane requirement of 20 feet.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

,f�
Date: 3/9/15
RE: Application 15-11 P—West River Farms, Scantic Road, East Windsor, CT
Engineering has reviewed the site plan for the above application and has the
following comments:
1. Show where the proposed gravel access drive will begin (at the end of Schanck
Road) and label this drive and its proposed width on all plans where it appears.
2. Show any gate and signs that will be installed along the proposed gravel access
drive.
3. 1 understand the proposed gravel access drive will be privately owned. Who will
maintain this gravel access drive? It is likely there will be ruts, potholes, bumps,
etc that form on the slopes and other places on this gravel drive due to storm
water runoff, frost, etc. Significant erosion of the gravel from this road could affect
the roadside areas. This drive will need regular maintenance so there is not
significant erosion and it remains passable for passenger vehicles.
4. According to the Drainage report, the wet pond was sized to treat the net
impervious surface expected in this development. This may need to be adjusted
if the number of infiltration systems for individual units is less than expected and
the WQV increases. I think this can be done by raising the weir in the wet pond
outlet structure to about elevation 31.0. This is easy to adjust before or during
construction.
Please contact me if you have any questions.

may be granted against the malicious erection, by or with the consent of an owner,
lessee or person entitled to the possession of land, of any structure upon it, intended to
annoy and injure any owner or lessee of adjacent land in respect to his use or
disposition of the same.
The plaintiff Kevin R Saunders SR. and Victory Outreach Ministries Inc. et al is at all
time the rightful owner and is entitled to the possession of the land and the intended
development is at all-time a nuisance to private property.
Sec. 52-474. Interested persons may appear and be heard. Any person who may be
directly or indirectly interested in, or affected by, the granting of any temporary or
permanent injunction, may appear and be heard with regard to granting or dissolving
the same.

time are directly interested in, and affected by, defendant's collusion with the planning
and zoning department of The Towns of East Windsor and South Windsor.

and for a long time has been the owner in fee simple of a certain tract of land
with a dwelling house thereon located on 329, 331, 333, 341 Scantic Road, East
Windsor and Crow Park Road, South Windsor which premises he has occupied a
private dwelling for himself and his family and church.
2. The defendants Town of East Windsor, East Windsor Planning and Zoning, East

Page 2 of 4
20, is attempting to make unlawful (illegal) development on property situated on
329, 331, 333, 341 Scantic Road, East Windsor and Crow Park Road, South
Windsor. The defendant failed to properly convey title ultimately making the
foreclosure and the zoning enforcement null and void. The defendant never had
authority to contract a mortgage on the subject matter property with the plaintiff
and or the board of directors of the church. The Towns of East Windsor and
South Windsor does not have jurisdiction to grant the zoning commissions to
conduct business on the subject matter property while the subject matter issues
are being appealed accompanied with request for injunction and injunctive relief.
3. The Towns of East Windsor and South Windsor Planning and Zoning
Department unlawfully adopted various building and zone regulations which,
among other things are violation of plaintiff constitutional rights article III standing
law involving injured and aggrieved party's issues to be remedied with redress
and recourse...
4. After the adoption of the regulations the defendants have attempted to cause
further harm without providing remedy and recourse to be addressed by all
aggrieved parties. The defendants attempt to file for a plan of development of
subject matter property. At all-time herein plaintiff objects to the defendants
development plan. At all-time plaintiff objects to the improper conveyance of title.
Herein Plaintiff at no time consents to the defendants request for development.
5. The defendants' et al intends to unlawfully develop upon plaintiff's private owned
premise. The plaintiff notified him that its construction was in violation of the
plaintiff right and the building and zone regulations are in violation, and unless it
desisted, the plaintiff would seek proper legal redress.
6. The plaintiff, herein, requests for injunctions and Restraining Orders 52- zoning
commissions of the Towns, whose duty it is to enforce the regulations, to take
steps to prevent the unlawful construction and use of the building, and has
Page 3 of 4
awaited action by it, but the commission has neglected and refused to take any
action or proceedings whatsoever in the matter.
7. By reason of the use of the plaintiffs property is being developed without plaintiff
consent by the Town of East Windsor and South Windsor, committee and zoning
departments. The defendants' et al attempt at all times does disturb the peace,
and comfort of the plaintiff. These conditions constitute a nuisance to the plaintiff;
the value of his premises as a dwelling place is greatly impaired, and if they
continue will be destroyed; and the plaintiff will suffer an irreparable injury for
which he has no adequate remedy at law.
The plaintiff claims:
1. An injunction restraining the defendants' et al and each of them from using or
permitting to be used for business purposes the land and buildings owned by the
plaintiff owner as above set forth. Plaintiff is still the rightful owner and taxpayer
on said land and parcel. Defendant contract is null and void because plaintiff did
not have all necessary Board of Directors permission and or necessary signature
to contract and or convey title for said mortgage.
2. Damages. Redemption in equity, declarative relief, punitive damages, entitled to
recover expenses, court fees and finding of interest and deficiency against
defendant. Plaintiff request that the Court reverse the prior decision in question
and provide equitable relief as fits.

MOTION FOR PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION
STAYING ENFORCEMENT OF DEVELOPMENT
UNTIL FURTHER ORDER OF THIS COURT
Petitioner Kevin R Saunders SR party of legal interest and Senior Pastor/Board of
Director of the Victory Outreach Ministries Inc. moves the Court for a preliminary
injunction staying enforcement of developmental plan pending further order of this
Court. Civ.R. 65(B). The reasons supporting this motion are set forth herein.
Page 1 of 2
I. Relief Requested and Applicable Standard
This Court should immediately issue a preliminary injunction staying the enforcement of
developmental plan until after this Court rules upon Petitioner's challenge to the
developmental plan application To grant a preliminary injunction, the court examines
four factors:
1. whether there is a substantial likelihood that plaintiff will prevail on the merits;
2. whether the plaintiff will suffer irreparable injury if the injunction is not granted;
3. whether no third parties will be unjustifiably harmed if the injunction is granted;
and
4. whether the public interest will be served by the injunction. Vanguard Transp.
Sys., Inc. v. Edwards Transfer& Storage Co
II. Petitioner is likely to succeed on the merits of his challenge petition.
111. An injunction is necessary to provide Petitioner a meaningful opportunity to
challenge his reclassification under the developmental plan and the bill as it
is voted on.
IV. This Court should grant Petitioner' emergency motion because Petitioner
will suffer irreparable harm if developmental plan is enforced before this
Court rules upon Petitioner's challenge to his reclassification under remedy,
redress, recourse and resolution.
V. No third parties will be unjustifiably harmed if the injunction is granted, and
the public interest will be served.

7. By reason of the use of the plaintiffs property is being developed without plaintiff
consent by the Town of East Windsor and South Windsor, Committee and
Zoning department heads. The defendants' et al attempt at all times does disturb
the peace, and comfort of the plaintiff. These conditions constitute a nuisance to
the plaintiff; the value of his premises as a dwelling place is greatly impaired, and
if they continue will be destroyed; and the plaintiff will suffer an irreparable injury
for which he has no adequate remedy at law.
The plaintiff claims:
1. An injunction restraining the defendants' et al and each of them from using or
permitting to be used for business purposes the land and buildings owned by the
plaintiff owner as above set forth. Plaintiff is still the rightful owner and taxpayer
on said land and parcel. Defendant contract is null and void because plaintiff did
not have all necessary Board of Directors permission and or necessary signature
to contract and or convey title for said mortgage.
2. Damages. Redemption in equity, declarative relief, punitive damages, entitled to
recover expenses, court fees and finding of interest and deficiency against
defendant. Plaintiff request that the Court reverse the prior decision in question
and provide equitable relief as fits.

II. Project Summary
West River Farms, LLC proposes to construct a Planned Residential
Development (PRD) subdivision identified as "West River Farms" at 329-
341 Scantic Road on a 41.1 acre parcel with frontage on the south/east
side of Scantic Road in East Windsor, Connecticut and extending into
South Windsor to the banks of the Scantic River. The development
consists of 69 single family subdivision lots to be constructed in up to 4
phases. The lots will be serviced by underground utilities, public sewer
and water and approximately 3,800 feet of new public roadway all located
within 21.6 acres exclusively within the Town of East Windsor. The
remaining 19.5 acres including land in both East Windsor and South
Windsor to the Scantic River will be dedicated as open space. The open
space parcel will include a stormwater management basin and discharge
to the Scantic River that will be maintained by the Town of East Windsor.

III. General Permit Authorization
The Connecticut Department of Energy & Environmental Protection
regulates the discharge of stormwater from construction activities by
requiring all projects disturbing one or more acre of land to register under
the General Permit for the Discharge of Stormwater & Dewatering
Wastewaters from Construction Activities. Since this project disturbs more
than one acre of land, the construction activities are eligible for permitting
through this general permit process.
Furthermore, the project conforms to the general permit's requirements for
authorization:
A. This project is not within a Costal Boundary and therefore does not
cause adverse impacts to coastal resources as defined in section
22a-93(15) of the Connecticut General Statutes (CGS).
B. This project does not threaten the continued existence of any
species listed pursuant to section 26-306 of the CGS as
endangered or threatened and does not result in the destruction or
adverse modification of habitat designated as essential to such
species.
A request was sent within the past 12 months to the Natural
Diversity Database (NDDB) to inquire about potential species of
concern. Two bat species were identified as potentially present on
site. The DEEP biologists Elaine Hinsch made the following
recommendation:
Recommendations: Tree cutting should be conducted in the
winter when the bats are not in the area, specifically work should
not be conducted after April 15th through September 30th. Long-
term impacts can be minimized by retaining large diameter
coniferous and deciduous trees whenever possible. If these bats
are found, please report the information to the Wildlife Division.
Correspondence related to this determination are provided in
Appendix G.
C. This project is not located within an aquifer protection area as
mapped under section 22a-354b of the CGS.
D. This project is not a mining operation (standard industrial
classification 10-14).
-6-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
E. The stormwater from this project is not discharged to a Publicly
Owned treatment Works (POTW).
F. The stormwater from this project is not discharged entirely to
groundwater (up to and including a 100-year, 24-hour rainfall
event).
G. This project does not discharge to a river component or tributary
designated as Wild and Scenic by the United States Congress.
H. The registrant and preparer have signed the certification on Party
VII of the registration form. See note below.
I. The professional engineer has signed the certification on Part VIII
of the registration form. See note below.
Note:
For all certifications, it is understood that the words
Certify/Certifier/Certification by a Design Professional are to be
defined as a Design Professional's opinion based on his/her
observation of conditions, knowledge, information and beliefs. It is
expressly understood that the Design Professional's certification of
a condition's existence relieves no other party of any responsibility
or obligation he/she has accepted by contract or custom.
J. The reviewing qualified professional has signed the certification on
Part IX of the registration form. See note below.
K. The project does not discharge directly to an impaired water, as
indicated in the State's Integrated Water Quality Report.
Specifically, the Scantic River is not listed as Impaired Waters in
the latest 2014 report.
Therefore, since this project meets the requirements for authorization
under the general permit, a registration may be submitted as a "Locally
Approvable Project" at least sixty (60) days prior to the planned
commencement of the construction activity. The project qualifies as
"locally approvable" because it is not a municipal, state or federal funded
project and it required municipal approval. Submittal of the registration
form and $650 fee is required because the project has a total disturbance
of more than five (5) acres of land. And because this project has a total
disturbance of fifteen (15) or more acres of land, it requires an
independent third party Plan Review Certification.

STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
This document, including all appendix and attachments constitutes a
complete Stormwater Pollution Control Plan (SWPCP) or simply "Plan" as
required by the General Permit. The permittee and his/her designated
agents (i.e. contractors) are responsible for implementing, inspecting,
monitoring and maintaining all measures identified in the Plan and
complying with all conditions and requirements outlined in the General
Permit.
The permittee shall retain an updated copy of the complete SWPCP at the
job site from the date construction is initiated at the site until the date
construction at the site is completed. Since the SWPCP is a living
document, it will require continual and consistent maintenance (updates)
and additional information from the registrant and
contractors/subcontractors.
All contractors and subcontractors are required to familiarize themselves
with the content of the Plan and shall sign the certification statement
contained herein.
All erosion and sediment control measures shall be installed and
maintained in accordance with the Plan and the Connecticut Guidelines
for Soil Erosion and Sediment Control, latest edition ("Guidelines"). The
permittee is responsible for insuring that proper inspection records are
kept on site and are available for review by governing authorities. The
permittee shall provide copies of the Plan to governing authorities upon
request.
The permittee or his/her contractor shall also be responsible for monthly
turbidity monitoring and reporting during construction.
Finally, the permittee is also required to file a Notice of Termination with
the DEEP once the site has been stabilized for at least three (3) months
following cessation of the construction activities. For five (5) years
following the Notice of Termination, the permittee shall retain copies of the
Plan and all reports required by this general permit, and records of all data
used to complete the registration for this general permit, unless the DEEP
specifies another time period in writing.
The provisions of the General Permit shall expire on September 30, 2018.

West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
IV. Development and Contents of Plan
This SWPCP is designed to minimize 1) pollution caused by soil erosion
and sedimentation during and after construction; and 2) stormwater
pollution caused by use of the site after construction is complete.
A. Design Standards
The Plan, including the Subdivision Construction Plan Set, latest
revision has been prepared in accordance with sound engineering
practices and consistent with the Guidelines and the 2004
Connecticut Stormwater Quality Manual. There are no other known
remedial action plans, closure plans or other plans required by any
other DEEP permit.
B. Plan Content
i. Site Plan
The Subdivision Construction Plan Set, particularly sheet 5 —
Phasing & Soil Erosion Control Plan, provides an overview
of the key components of the SWPCP. Drainage patterns
can be perceived from the available topographic contours
and watershed areas are depicted on the Drainage Area
Map found in the attached Drainage Report. Limits of soil
disturbance are defined by tree clearing limits and sediment
barriers. Major structural and non-structural controls are
indicated by abbreviations noted on the E&S Legend. The
plan also indicates locations where stabilization practices are
expected to occur, areas which will be vegetated following
construction, the monitoring outfall (wet pond outlet), surface
waters (wetlands and Scantic River), and locations where
stormwater will be discharged to a surface water (Scantic
River).
ii. Site Description
a. Construction Narrative
The proposed construction includes, but is not
necessarily limited to the following activities:
1. Clearing and grubbing
-9-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
2. Striping and stockpiling topsoil
3. Mass earth moving, cuts and fills
4. Installation of storm, sanitary, water, electric,
and other utilities
5. Roadway construction with associated features
6. Single family residential home construction (1
and 2 story wood frame structures with full
concrete basements)
7. Construction and maintenance of erosion and
sediment control measures and both temporary
and permanent water quality measures.
For a more detailed description of the construction
activities, refer to the Subdivision Construction Plan
Set.
b. Total Area of Disturbance
The existing site consists of 3 parcels totaling
approximately 41.1± acres including 17± acres in
South Windsor. The proposed development includes
the subdivision of these properties into 69 single
family lots and public roadways in East Windsor and a
remaining 19.5 acre open space parcel in East
Windsor and South Windsor. Most of the construction
activity will occur in East Windsor. The stormwater
outlet and post-construction water quality treatment
area for the stormwater drainage system is located on
the remaining 19.5± acre open space parcel. The
total area of disturbance is approximately 26± acres.
The project has been divided into four phases to limit
the amount of disturbance:
Phase I disturbance = 11 acres
Phase 2 disturbance = 6 acres
Phase 3 disturbance = 2.5 acres
Phase 4 disturbance = 6.5 acres
These phases will be further broken into sub-phases
to limit the area of active disturbance to no more than
5 acres at a time and in most cases less than 2 acres
at a time. This will be accomplished in phase 1 by
constructing the wet pond and outlet pipe first. All
phases will see limited disturbance by constructing
-l 0-

the roadway before disturbing most of the lots for
house construction.
C. Average Runoff Coefficient
According to the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the on-site
soils in the area of the development are
predominately Windsor loamy fine sand designated
as HSG A. Existing runoff coefficients for these soils
were assumed to be C=0.15 based on CT DOT
Drainage Manual Tables (see Drainage Report). The
rear portion of the parcel in South Windsor, where the
stormwater discharge will occur is predominately
Elmwood sandy loam and Buxton silt loam, type C
soils. The soils delineations are shown on the
attached Soils Map in the Drainage Report. The post-
development runoff coefficient for the 28.3 acre site
drainage system watershed is 0.33.
d. Receiving Waters
All stormwater from this development is collected and
discharged into the Scantic River, which is the
immediate receiving waters for this development. The
Scantic River ultimately discharges to the Connecticut
River.
e. Wetland Acerage
The on-site wetlands were delineated by flagging and
located by field survey. The total area on site
designated as wetlands is 4.7 acres. Most of these
wetlands are in the South Windsor portion of the site
and all of them are within the Open Space Parcel.
iii. Construction Sequencing
The goal of the project's construction sequence is to
complete the utility, roadway and drainage improvements in
each phase as soon as possible to limit the total amount of
disturbance on site during construction of individual
residences. While some residential units may be
constructed concurrently with the road and utility installation,
the intent is that most of the units will be constructed after
-11-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
the binder course of pavement has been installed on the
roadway, and in no case shall there be allowed more than
five (5) acres of disturbance at a time. The actual
construction sequence is described in detail on the Phasing
& Erosion Control Plan, sheet 5 of the Subdivision
Construction Plan Set.
iv. Control Measures
a. TSS Removal Calculations
The goal of 80% removal of total suspended solids
(TSS) is met by the implementation of a wet pond in
accordance with CT DEP Stormwater Quality Manual.
Wet Ponds are an approved "Primary Treatment
Practice" which as the Manual indicates is capable of
removing at least 80% of the average annual TSS
load and at least 80% of floatable debris, including oil
and petroleum products.
b. Velocity Dissipation Calculations (Outlet Protection)
The wet pond outlet to the Scantic River is designed
with a Preformed Scour Hole in accordance with the
CT DOT Drainage Manual. Design calculations are
included in the attached Drainage Report.
V. Runoff Reduction and Low Impact Development (LID)
Information
This project utilizes LID measures to infiltrate roof and lawn
runoff on a lot by lot basis before collecting and discharging
runoff to a downstream stormwater basin near the Scantic
River along the southeastern boundary of the site.
A portion of the property is located within a floodplain of the
Scantic River as indicated on the plans. Wetland boundaries
throughout the site are also delineated on the plans as field
located by a Soil Scientist. The wetlands and floodplains
and their immediate surrounding areas are not suitable for
infiltration.
The infiltration systems include an infiltration basin on Lot 1
which collects roof and lawn runoff from Lots 1-17. A
-12-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
second infiltration trench is proposed along Schanck Road to
collect roof and lawn runoff from Lots 56-69. The remaining
38 lots were evaluated for individual subsurface roof
infiltration chambers. Lots 39-49 were deemed unsuitable
for infiltration. The remaining 27 lots will include roof
infiltration to collect and retain at least '/2 of the WQV (0.5
inch rainfall). Calculations, and a more detailed description
can be found in the attached Drainage Report under
Groundwater Recharge.
The purpose of the roof infiltration systems is to recharge
groundwater. In order to achieve this goal, the receiving
soils must remain permeable. Sediment deposits from
erosion or other sources can clog receiving soils. Therefore
erosion stabilization within the system's watershed is critical
to long-term performance. Compaction of the receiving soils
can also reduce permeability. Therefore vehicle traffic
should be restricted in these areas. Because these areas
are located in the yards of the residential lots, long term
traffic and compaction should be minimal.
vi. Inspector Assignments & Qualifications
The following personnel have been assigned to conduct the
required inspections. The inspector's qualifications shall
conform to the requirements specified in the General Permit.
Resumes documenting required license/certification and/or
experience shall be attached to the Plan.
a. Plan Implementation Inspector

vii. Monitoring
Stormwater monitoring and reporting is an integral part of the
Plan to verify that the E&S design and implementation is
meeting the required goals for protecting downstream
receiving waters. Water samples are taken at the
designated sampling location and sent to a qualified testing
laboratory for analysis. The test results are then entered
onto the DEEP Stormwater Monitoring Report (SMR) form
and submitted electronically.
Permittee's Monitoring Designee:
Site Normal Working Hours:
a. Turbidity Monitoring Requirements
1. Monitoring Frequency (Monthly)
2. Sample Collection
During a storm event that results in a
discharge, the Designee shall grab a sample
from the sampling location at least three
separate times during the storm event in order
to capture an accurate representation of the
flow and characteristics of the discharge. The
-14-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
first sample shall be taken within the first hour
of the stormwater discharge. In cases where
samples are collected outside of normal
working hours, the first sample shall be taken
at the start of normal working hours. Normal
working hours shall include at a minimum,
Monday through Friday, 8.00 AM to 6.00 PM.
If the sample includes snow or ice melt, it must
be so noted on the SMR form. Samples
containing exclusively snow or ice melt are not
valid.
3. Sampling Locations
Sampling is required at all point source
discharges of stormwater from disturbed areas.
Since the entire site discharges to a single
point source location, only one sampling
location is required at the 36" RCP outlet at the
Scantic River. If the river flow is backing up
into 36" pipe, a sample may be taken from the
inlet to the upstream drop manhole structure.
The sampling location shall be clearly marked
in the field with a flag, stake or other visible
marker.
4. Sampling Analysis
Sampling and analysis shall be prescribed by
40 CFR Part 136.
5. Turbidity Values
The reported turbidity value shall be the
average of all turbidity samples taken at the
sampling point during a given storm.
b. Stormwater Monitoring Reports
Within 30 calendar days following the end of each
month, the permittee shall enter the stormwater
sampling results on the prescribed SMR and submit it
to DEEP using their web-based tool called NetDMR.
-15-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
If there was no discharge during the previous month,
the permittee shall submit the form as required with
the words "no discharge" entered in place of the
monitoring results.
Typically only one storm per month is required to be
monitored, but if additional storms are monitored, all
results shall be submitted.
When sampling protocols are modified due to the
limitations of normal working hours or unsafe
conditions as described in the General Permit, a
description of and reason for the modifications shall
be included with the SMR.
On or before 15 days after the issuance of this permit,
the Permittee shall contact the DEEP at
deep.netdmr(cDct.gov and initiate the Net DMR
subscription process for electronic submission of
SMR information. On or before 90 days after the
issuance of this permit, the Permittee shall submit a
signed and notarized copy of the NetDMR Subscriber
Agreement to the DEEP.
viii. Contractors
Each contractor and subcontractor that will perform
construction activities on the site that have the potential to
cause pollution of the waters of the State (i.e. Scantic River)
shall sign the "Contractor Certification Statement" found in
Appendix E. Each certification shall be made a part of the
Plan.
If lots in the subdivision are sold off to other parties, the
contractors and subcontractors working on those lots shall
also be required to sign the certifications. The Permittee
shall give each contractor a copy of the complete Plan and
shall retain their certifications as part of the Plan.
ix. Impaired Waters
The Scantic River is not identified as an impaired water,
therefore the requirements for discharge to impaired waters
do not apply to this project.
-16-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
V. Stormwater Control Measures
A. Erosion and Sediment Controls
i. Soil Stabilization and Protection
Prior to earthwork, perimeter silt fence (GSF) or straw
wattles (SW) shall be installed downgradient of construction
activities. Care shall be taken to ensure that existing
vegetation is preserved where attainable and that disturbed
portions of the site are stabilized as soon as possible. Silt
fence shall be maintained until the disturbed areas are
stabilized with vegetative cover.
Where construction activities have permanently ceased or
have temporarily been suspended for more than seven days,
or when final grades are reached in any portion of the site,
additional stabilization practices shall be implemented within
three days. Practices shall include temporary seeding (TS),
permanent seeding (PS), and mulch for seed (MS) as shown
on the Construction Plans. If field conditions warrant, the
Engineer may require additional control measures such as
erosion control blankets (ECB), permanent turf
reinforcement mats (TRM) or sodding (SO) for soil
stabilization.
Areas which remain disturbed but inactive for at least thirty
(30) days shall receive temporary seeding (TS) in
accordance with the Guidelines.
ii. Structural Measures
A construction entrance (CE) shall be installed at each site
entrance to prevent tracking of sediment into the adjacent
roadway system.
The stormwater basin (SB) and riprap (RR) preformed scour
hole (OP) shall be installed first to provide sediment removal
and treatment area for collected site runoff prior to discharge
to the Scantic River. Once the basin and outlet controls are
in place, the storm drainage system will be installed up to the
area of the subdivision lots in Phase 1.
-17-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
Silt Sacks will be installed at each catch basin inlet to
provide inlet protection (IP) from sediment entering the piped
drainage system.
All runoff from the disturbed areas of the site will be piped to
this remote treatment area to bypass more sensitive and
erosion prone wetland areas. However, disturbed areas will
be limited in most cases to less than 2 acres at a time by
phasing of the construction work. Therefore, no further
structural measures are required. The stormwater basin
(SB) therefore does not need to be designed as a Sediment
Basin, but it will provide additional settling treatment during
construction.
If disturbed areas exceed 2 acres, temporary sediment traps
(TST) will be installed prior to discharge to the piped
drainage system. According to the CT Guidelines for Soil
Erosion and Sediment Control, the required capacity of a
sediment trap is 134 cubic yards per acre of contributing
area, half as wet storage below the primary outlet, and half
as dry storage between the primary outlet and overflow. The
wet and dry storage requirements of the sediment traps will
be determined by the Engineer as an "Engineered Corrective
Action". Two potential TST locations are depicted on the
E&S Plan (sheet 5 of the Construction Plans).
iii. Maintenance
All erosion and sediment control measures, including
vegetation, and all other protective measures identified on
the plans, shall be maintained by the Permittee or his/her
designated agent (Contractor) in accordance with the
Guidelines and the Construction Plans. Specific details
regarding maintenance of erosion and sediment control
measures are provided on the Erosion Notes and Details
(sheets 20-25 of the Construction Plans).
B. Dewatering Wastewaters
If required, dewatering shall be performed in accordance with
section 5-13 of the Guidelines. Dewatering wastewater shall be
discharged to temporary settling basins (PSB) or portable sediment
bags to allow sediment to settle before discharging to vegetated
-l 8-
STORMWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLAN
West River Farms — 69-Lot Planned Residential Development Subdivision
Scantic Road, East Windsor, Connecticut
areas. Pumping settling basins, if required, shall be constructed in
accordance with the Guidelines.
C. Post-Construction Stormwater Management
As detailed in the Drainage Report (Appendix C), this development
is designed to minimize the discharge of pollutants in stormwater
discharges that will occur after construction operations have been
completed. Post-construction stormwater management measures
include individual lot subsurface infiltration of roof runoff, multi-lot
roof/lawn infiltration basins, and a stormwater basin (SB) near the
discharge point at the Scantic River. The stormwater basin is
designed as a Wet Pond in accordance with the Stormwater Quality
Manual.
i. Post-Construction Performance Standards
The stormwater basin is sized to treat the full water quality
volume of the project watershed.
ii. Post-Construction Control Measures
a. Runoff Reduction and Low Impact Development
("LID") Practices
This project incorporates subsurface roof infiltration
on individual lots and multi-lot roof and lawn infiltration
basins. These LID practices are designed to reduce
runoff and promote groundwater recharge.
b. Suspended Solids and Floatables Removal
Implementation of the stormwater wet pond with
forebay meets the goal of 80% removal of the annual
sediment load. The Stormwater Quality Manual
indicates that this BMP meets the removal goal.
C. Velocity Dissipation
The outlet to the Scantic River is designed in
accordance with the CT DOT Drainage Manual as a
Preformed Scour Hole. A drop manhole structure
was also added to reduce energy and velocity at the
outlet.

D. Other Controls
i. Waste Disposal
Best Management Practices (BMP's) shall be utilized at the
site to ensure that no litter, debris, building materials, or
similar materials are discharged to waters of the State. The
site shall be kept neat and clean after each workday. A
construction waste dumpster shall be provided for proper
disposal of waste materials. A portable sanitary facility shall
be provided and maintained at the site during construction
activities.
ii. Washout Areas
The Contractor shall provide a designated washout area for
concrete trucks and shall note the location on the E&S Plan
(sheet 5). The washout area shall consist of an excavated
pit sized such that waste materials will be contained and
allowed to solidify in place with no surface discharge of
washout wastewaters from the area. A sign shall be
installed adjacent to each washout area to inform concrete
equipment operators to utilize the proper facilities. Washout
areas shall be inspected weekly to assess the holding
capacity and functionality of the area. Hardened concrete
shall be removed when the concrete has reached '/2 the
height of the pit or as necessary to avoid overflows.
The washout area shall not be located within 150' from any
wetland or watercourse and shall not be located in an area
designated for infiltration of stormwater.
iii. Dust Control
A construction entrance (CE) pad shall be installed at the
site entrances off of Scantic Road prior to any work
occurring in the relevant project phases. The purpose of the
entrance pad is to prevent sediment from tracking onto town
roads. Dust control (DC) measures shall be implemented as
required to limit dust on the site. This shall include a
watering truck to keep soils moist during windy dry periods.
iv. Construction Closeout

registrant, the Plan preparer, or employed by the Plan preparer, or
have any ownership interest in the project.
B. Routine Inspections shall be conducted by the permittee in the
following manner:
i. Maintain a rain gauge on-site to document rainfall amounts.
ii_ A qualified inspector as defined in the General Permit shall
perform routine inspections every week and within 24 hours
of the end of a storm that generates a discharge for
evidence of, or the potential for, pollutants entering the
drainage system and impacts to the receiving waters
(Scantic River). Storms less than 0.5 inches which end after
normal working hours shall occur immediately upon the start
of the subsequent normal working hours. Routine
inspections shall including at a minimum, the following:
a. Disturbed areas not finally stabilized

69 lot subdivision in up to 4 phases with a total of 3,800 linear feet of road construction. Lots will be served by
public water and sewer and accessed entirely from Scantic Road in East Windsor. Construction will use
standard construction equipment to construct a stormwater wet pond near the Scantic River. An 18'wide
gravel access drive with turnaround approximately 1,700 feet in length will be constructed to access the pond
and area to be deeded as open space from a private roadway known in East Windsor as Schanck Road. The 69
lots and subdivision roads will be constructed entirely within the Town of East Windsor,while the wet pond
and open space will be primarily in South Windsor,with river frontage along the north side of the Scantic
River.
4. If this is a renewal or extension of an existing Safe Harbor request with modifications, explain what about
the project has changed.
This is NOT a renwal or safe harbor request. However, this project received a NDDB determination
in 2012 which has lapsed. At that time the project included 61 lots and 3,000 feet of roadway. The
subdivision has since been redesigned with 69 lots and 3,800 feet of roadway. These changes are
all in East Windsor, about 1,000 feet from the Scantic River. Changes in South Windsor, closer to
the river are limited to the widening of the gravel access road from 10'to 18'.

The permittee shall meet all requirements of this general permit at all times. In addition, a permittee shall be
responsible for conducting authorized construction activities in accordance with the following conditions:
(a) Conditions Applicable to Certain Discharges
(1) Structures and Dredging in Coastal and Tidal Areas
Any person who or municipality that discharges stormwater into coastal tidal waters for which a
permit is required under section 22a-361 of the Connecticut General Statutes(structures and
dredging)or section 22a-32 of the Connecticut General Statutes(Tidal Wetlands Act), shall
obtain such permit(s)from the commissioner.A tidal wetland permit is required for the
placement of any sediment upon a tidal wetland,whether it is deposited directly or indirectly.
(2) Discharges to Tidal Wetlands
Any site which has a post-construction stormwater discharge to a tidal wetland(that is not a
fresh-tidal wetland)where such discharge is within 500 feet of the tidal wetland, shall discharge
such stormwater through a system designed to retain and infiltrate the volume of stormwater
runoff generated by 1 inch of rainfall on the site. If there are site constraints that would prevent
retention of this volume on-site(e.g.,brownfields,capped landfills,bedrock, elevated
groundwater, etc.), documentation must be submitted, for the commissioner's review and written
approval,which explains the site limitations and offers an alternative retention volume. In such
cases,the portion of 1 inch that cannot be retained must be provided with additional stormwater
treatment so as to protect water quality. Any such treatment shall be designed,installed and
maintained in accordance with the Stormwater Quality Manual.
For sites unable to comply with this section,the commissioner, at the commissioner's sole
discretion,may require the submission of an individual permit in lieu of authorization under this
general permit.
(3) Toxicity to Aquatic and Marine Life
The discharge shall not cause pollution due to acute or chronic toxicity to aquatic and marine life,
impair the biological integrity of aquatic or marine ecosystems, or result in an unacceptable risk
to human health.
BMMCA Rev.8/21/13
DEEP-WPED-GP-015 25 of 45
(4) Water Quality Standards
The stormwater discharge shall not cause or contribute to an exceedance of the applicable Water
Quality Standards in the receiving water.
(5) High Quality Waters
Any new or increased stormwater discharge to high quality waters shall be discharged in
accordance with the Connecticut Anti-Degradation Implementation Policy in the Water Quality
Standards.
(b) Stormwater Pollution Control Plan
All registrants shall develop and maintain on-site a Stormwater Pollution Control Plan(Plan)for the
construction activity authorized by this general permit. Once the construction activity begins,the
permittee shall perform all actions required by such Plan and shall maintain compliance with the Plan
thereafter. The Plan shall be designed to minimize(as defined in Section 2): (1)pollution caused by
soil erosion and sedimentation during and after construction; and(2)stormwater pollution caused by
use of the site after construction is completed.
(1) Development and Contents of Plan

(III) Construction Sequencing
The Plan shall clearly identify the expected sequence of major construction activities
on the site and corresponding erosion and sediment controls and shall include an
estimated timetable for all construction activities,which shall be revised as necessary
to keep the Plan current.Wherever possible,the site shall be phased to avoid the
disturbance of over five acres at one time(or a lesser area of disturbance as required in
the"Impaired Waters"section(Section 5(b)(3)). The Plan shall clearly show the limits
of disturbance for the entire construction activity and for each phase.
(iv) Control Measures

regardless of lot size or disturbed area. In such cases,the permittee shall provide a
copy of the Plan to each individual lot contractor,obtain signed certifications from
such contractors and retain all signed certifications in the Plan.
(ix) Impaired Waters
For construction activities that discharge to impaired waters, as specified in"New
Discharges to Impaired Waters"(Section 3(b)(12)),the Plan shall include a description
of the provisions for controlling the construction and post-construction stormwater
discharges to these waters pursuant to subsection 5(b)(3)below.
(2) Stormwater Control Measures
Control Measures are required Best Management Practices(BMPs)that the permittee must
implement to minimize the discharge of pollutants from the permitted activity. The term
"minimize"means reduce and/or eliminate to the extent achievable using control measures that
are technologically available and economically practicable and achievable in light of best industry
practice.
Control Measures shall be designed in accordance with the Guidelines,the Stormwater Quality
Manual or the DOT Qualified Products List
(http://www.ct.gov/dot/lib/dot/documents/dresearch/conndot_gpl.pdf). Use of controls to comply
with the"Erosion and Sediment Controls"section(subsection(A)below)of this general permit
that are not included in those resources must be approved by the commissioner or the
commissioner's designated agent. The narrative and drawings of controls shall address the
following minimum components:
(A) Erosion and Sediment Controls
(i) Soil Stabilization and Protection
The Plan shall include a narrative and drawings of interim and permanent soil
stabilization practices for managing disturbed areas and soil stockpiles,including a
schedule for implementing the practices.The Permittee shall ensure that existing
vegetation is preserved to the maximum extent practicable and that disturbed portions
of the site are minimized and stabilized.
BMMCA Rev.8/21/13
DEEP-WPED-GP-015 29 of 45
Where construction activities have permanently ceased or when final grades are
reached in any portion of the site, stabilization and protection practices as specified in
Chapter 5 of the Guidelines or as approved by the commissioner or his/her designated
agent shall be implemented within seven days. Areas that will remain disturbed but
inactive for at least thirty days shall receive temporary seeding or soil protection within
seven days in accordance with the Guidelines.
Areas that will remain disturbed beyond the seeding season as identified in the
Guidelines, shall receive long-term,non-vegetative stabilization and protection
sufficient to protect the site through the winter. In all cases, stabilization and protection
measures shall be implemented as soon as possible in accordance with the Guidelines
or as approved by the commissioner or his/her designated agent.
A reverse slope bench is required for any slope steeper than 3:1 (horizontal: vertical)
that exceeds 15 feet vertically, except when engineered slope stabilization structures or
measures are included or a detailed soil mechanics analysis has been conducted to
verify stability. Engineered analyses and measures must be designed by a CT licensed
Professional Engineer with experience in geotechnical engineering or soil mechanics.
(ii) Structural Measures
The Plan shall include a narrative and drawings of structural measures to divert flows
away from exposed soils, store flows or otherwise limit runoff and minimize the
discharge of pollutants from the site. Unless otherwise specifically approved in writing
by the commissioner or his/her designated agent,or if otherwise authorized by another
state or federal permit, structural measures shall be installed on upland soils.
For points of discharge from disturbed sites with a total contributing drainage area of
between two to five acres,a temporary sediment trap must be installed in accordance
with the Guidelines. For points of discharge from disturbed sites with a total
contributing drainage area greater than five acres, a temporary basin must be designed
and installed in accordance with the Guidelines. Such trap(s)or basin(s)must be
maintained until final stabilization of the contributing area as defined in"Notice of
Termination"(Section 6(a)).
The requirement for sediment traps or basins shall not apply to flows from off-site
areas and flows from the site that are either undisturbed or have undergone final
stabilization where such flows are diverted around the temporary sediment trap or
basin. Any exceptions must be approved in writing by the commissioner or his/her
designated agent.
(iii) Maintenance
The Plan shall include a narrative of the procedures to maintain in good and effective
operating conditions all erosion and sediment control measures,including vegetation,
and all other protective measures identified in the site plan. Maintenance of all erosion
and sediment controls shall be performed in accordance with the Guidelines, or more
frequently as necessary,to protect the waters of the state from pollution.
(B) Dewatering Wastewaters
Dewatering wastewaters shall be managed in accordance with the Guidelines. Dewatering
wastewaters discharged to surface waters shall be discharged in a manner that minimizes the
discoloration of the receiving waters. The Plan shall include a narrative and drawings of the
BMMCA Rev.8/21/13
DEEP-WPED-GP-015 30 of 45
operational and structural measures that will be used to ensure that all dewatering
wastewaters will not cause scouring or erosion or contain suspended solids in amounts that
could reasonably be expected to cause pollution of surface waters of the State. Unless
otherwise specifically approved in writing by the commissioner or his/her designated agent,
or if otherwise authorized by another state or federal permit, dewatering measures shall be
installed on upland soils.
No discharge of dewatering wastewater(s) shall contain or cause a visible oil sheen, floating
solids, or foaming in the receiving water.
(C) Post-Construction Stormwater Management
The Plan shall include a narrative and drawings of measures that will be installed during the
construction process to minimize the discharge of pollutants in stormwater discharges that
will occur after construction operations have been completed. Post-construction stormwater
management measures shall be designed and implemented in accordance with the
Stormwater Quality Manual,the DOT Qualified Products List or as approved by the
commissioner or his/her designated agent in writing. Unless otherwise specifically provided
by the commissioner in writing, or authorized by another state or federal permit, structural
measures shall be placed on upland soils. The Plan shall include provisions to address the
long-term maintenance of any post-construction stormwater management measure installed.
(i) Post-Construction Performance Standards
The permittee shall utilize runoff reduction practices(as defined in Section 2)to meet
runoff volume requirements based on the conditions below. For sites unable to comply
with these conditions,the commissioner,at the commissioner's sole discretion,may
require the submission of an individual permit in lieu of authorization under this
general permit.
(a) Redevelopment
For sites that are currently developed with an effective impervious cover of forty
percent or more and for which the permittee is proposing redevelopment,the
permittee shall design the site in such a manner as to retain on-site half the water
quality volume(as defined in Section 2)for the site and provide additional
stormwater treatment without retention for discharges up to the full water quality
volume for sediment,floatables and nutrients to the maximum extent achievable
using control measures that are technologically available and economically
practicable and achievable in light of best industry practice. In cases where the
permittee is not able to retain half the water quality volume,the permittee shall
design the redevelopment to retain runoff volume to the maximum extent
achievable using control measures that are technologically available and
economically practicable and achievable in light of best industry practice. In such
cases, additional stormwater treatment up to the full water quality volume is still
required. Any such treatment shall be designed, installed and maintained in
accordance with the Stormwater Quality Manual. If retention of the half the water
quality volume is not achieved,the permittee shall submit a report to the
commissioner describing: the measures taken to maximize runoff reduction
practices on the site;the reasons why those practices constitute the maximum
extent achievable;the alternative retention volume; and a description of the
measures used to provide additional stormwater treatment above the alternate
volume up to the water quality volume. In the case of linear redevelopment
projects(e.g.roadway reconstruction or widening) for the developed portion of
nmmcA Rev.8/21/13
DEEP-WPED-GP-015 31 of 45
the right of way: (1)for projects that may be unable to comply with the full
retention standard,the alternate retention and treatment provisions may also be
applied as specified above,or(2)for projects that will not increase the effective
impervious cover within a given watershed,the permittee shall implement the
additional stormwater treatment measures referenced above,but will not be
required to retain half of the water quality volume.
(b) Other Development
The following performance standard applies to all sites that are currently
undeveloped or are currently developed with less than forty percent effective
impervious cover. For these sites,the permittee shall design the site to retain the
water quality volume for the site. If there are site constraints that would prevent
retention of this volume on-site(e.g.,brownfields, capped landfills,bedrock,
elevated groundwater, etc.),documentation must be submitted, for the
commissioner's review and written approval,which: explains the site limitations;
provides a description of the runoff reduction practices implemented;provides an
explanation of why this constitutes the maximum extent achievable; offers an
alternative retention volume; and provides a description of the measures used to
provide additional stormwater treatment for sediment,floatables and nutrients
above the alternate volume up to the water quality volume. Any such treatment
shall be designed, installed and maintained in accordance with the Stormwater
Quality Manual. In the case of linear projects that do not involve impervious
surfaces(e.g. electrical transmission rights-of-way or natural gas pipelines),
retention of the water quality volume is not required as long as the post-
development runoff characteristics do not differ significantly from pre-
development conditions.
(ii) Post-Construction Control Measures
(a) Runoff Reduction and Low Impact Development("LID")Practices
The site design shall incorporate runoff reduction practices, low impact
development("LID")practices or other measures to meet the performance
standards in subsection(i)above,promote groundwater recharge and minimize
post-construction impacts to water quality. Please refer to Appendix B for
additional guidance information.
(b) Suspended Solids and Floatables Removal
The permittee shall install post-construction stormwater management measures
designed to minimize the discharge of suspended solids and floatables(e.g. oil and
grease, other floatable liquids,floatable solids,trash,etc.) from stormwater.A
goal of 80 percent removal of the annual sediment load from the stormwater
discharge shall be used in designing and installing stormwater management
measures. The Plan shall provide calculations supporting the capability of such
measures in achieving this goal and any third-party verification, as applicable, of
the sediment removal efficiencies of such measures. This goal is not intended to
limit local approval authorities from requiring a higher standard pursuant to local
requirements.
BMMCA Rev.8/21/13
DEEP-WPED-GP-015 32 of 45
(c) Velocity Dissipation
Velocity dissipation devices shall be placed at discharge locations and along the
length of any outfall channel as necessary to provide a non-erosive velocity flow
to the receiving watercourse so that the natural physical and biological
characteristics and functions are maintained and protected.
(D) Other Controls
The following additional controls shall be implemented:
(1) Waste Disposal: Best management practices shall be implemented to minimize the
discharge of litter,debris,building materials,hardened concrete waste, or similar
materials to waters of the State. A narrative of these practices shall be provided in the
Plan.
(ii) Washout Areas
Washout of applicators, containers,vehicles and equipment for concrete,paint and
other materials shall be conducted in a designated washout area. There shall be no
surface discharge of washout wastewaters from this area. Such washout shall be
conducted: (1)outside of any buffers and at least 50 feet from any stream,wetland or
other sensitive resource; or(2)in an entirely self-contained washout system. The
permittee shall clearly flag off and designate areas to be used for washing and conduct
such activities only in these areas. The permittee shall direct all washwater into a
container or pit designed such that no overflows can occur during rainfall or after
snowmelt.
In addition, dumping of liquid wastes in storm sewers is prohibited. The permittee
shall remove and dispose of hardened concrete waste consistent with practices
developed for the"Waste Disposal"section(subparagraph 5(b)(2)(D)(i), above). At
least once per week,the permittee must inspect any containers or pits used for washout
to ensure structural integrity, adequate holding capacity, and to check for leaks or
overflows. If there are signs of leaks,holes or overflows in the containers or pits that
could lead to a discharge,the permittee shall repair them prior to further use. For
concrete washout areas,the permittee shall remove hardened concrete waste whenever
the hardened concrete has accumulated to a height of/z of the container or pit or as
necessary to avoid overflows. A narrative of maintenance procedures and a record of
maintenance and inspections shall be included in the Plan.
(III) Off-site vehicle tracking of sediments and the generation of dust shall be minimized.
Wet dust suppression shall be used, in accordance with section 22a-174-18(b) of the
Connecticut General Statutes, for any construction activity that causes airborne
particulates. The volume of water sprayed for controlling dust shall be minimized so as
to prevent the runoff of water.No discharge of dust control water shall contain or cause
a visible oil sheen, floating solids, visible discoloration, or foaming in the receiving
stream.
(iv) All post-construction stormwater structures shall be cleaned of construction sediment
and any remaining silt fence shall be removed upon stabilization of the site.
(v) All chemical and petroleum product containers stored on the site(excluding those
contained within vehicles and equipment) shall be provided with impermeable
containment which will hold at least 110%of the volume of the largest container,or
BMMCA Rev.8/21/13
DEEP-WPED-GP-015 33 of 45
10% of the total volume of all containers in the area,whichever is larger,without
overflow from the containment area.All chemicals and their containers shall be stored
under a roofed area except for those chemicals stored in containers of 100 gallon
capacity or more, in which case a roof is not required.Double-walled tanks satisfy this
requirement.
(3) Additional Control Measures for Impaired Waters
For construction activities that discharge directly to impaired waters, as specified in"New
Discharges to Impaired Waters"(Section 3(b)(12)),the Plan shall include the following
provisions:
(A) In lieu of the provisions of"Construction Sequencing"(Section 5(b)(1)(13)(111)),no more
than 3 acres may be disturbed at any one time. For those areas for which construction
activity will be temporarily suspended for a period of greater than 14 days,temporary
stabilization measures shall be implemented within 3 days of such suspension of activity.
For all areas,permanent stabilization shall be implemented within 30 days of disturbance;or
(B) The Plan shall document that measures are in place to ensure that there will be no discharge
to the impaired water from rain events up to a 2-year,24-hour rain event while construction
activity is occurring; or
(C) For discharges to impaired waters with an established TMDL:
(i) the Plan shall document that there is sufficient remaining Waste Load Allocation
(WLA)in the TMDL to allow the discharge, and
(ii) measures shall be implemented to ensure the WLA will not be exceeded, and
(iii) stormwater discharges shall be monitored,if applicable, for any indicator pollutant
identified in the TMDL for every rain event that produces a discharge to ensure
compliance with the WLA. Such monitoring shall be in addition to the requirements
specified in Section 5(c),or
(iv) the specific requirements for stormwater discharges specified in the TMDL are met.
Construction activities discharging to impaired waters that do not comply with this subsection are
not authorized by this general permit.
(4) Inspections
All construction activities submitting a registration for this general permit shall be inspected
initially for Plan implementation and then weekly for routine inspections.
(A) Plan Implementation Inspections
Within the first 30 days following commencement of the construction activity on the site,
the permittee shall contact: (1)the appropriate District;or(2) a qualified soil erosion and
sediment control professional or a qualified professional engineer to inspect the site. The
site shall be inspected at least once and no more than three times during the first 90 days to

The report shall include a statement that, in the judgment of the qualified inspector(s)
conducting the site inspection,the site is either in compliance or out of compliance
with the terms and conditions of the Plan and permit. If the site inspection indicates
that the site is out of compliance,the inspection report shall include a summary of the
remedial actions required to bring the site back into compliance.Non-engineered
corrective actions(as identified in the Guidelines) shall be implemented on site within
24 hours and incorporated into a revised Plan within three(3)calendar days of the date
of inspection unless another schedule is specified in the Guidelines. Engineered
corrective actions(as identified in the Guidelines) shall be implemented on site within
seven(7)days and incorporated into a revised Plan within ten(10)days of the date of
inspection,unless another schedule is specified in the Guidelines or is approved by the
commissioner. During the period in which any corrective actions are being developed
and have not yet been fully implemented,interim measures shall be implemented to
minimize the potential for the discharge of pollutants from the site.
(iv) Inspectors from the DEEP and the appropriate District may inspect the site for
compliance with this general permit at any time construction activities are ongoing and

the"Monitoring Requirements"section(Section 5(c)).
(5) Keeping Plans Current
The Permittee is responsible for keeping their Plan in compliance with this general permit at all
times. This may involve any or all of the following:
(A) The permittee shall amend the Plan if the actions required by the Plan fail to prevent
pollution or fail to otherwise comply with any other provision of this general permit. The
Plan shall also be amended whenever there is a change in contractors or subcontractors at
the site, or a change in design, construction,operation,or maintenance at the site which has
the potential for the discharge of pollutants to the waters of the state and which has not
otherwise been addressed in the Plan.
(B) The commissioner may notify the permittee at any time that the Plan and/or the site do not
meet one or more of the minimum requirements of this general permit. Within 7 days of
such notice, or such other time as the commissioner may allow,the permittee shall make the
required changes to the Plan and perform all actions required by such revised Plan. Within

(c) Monitoring Requirements
The primary requirements for monitoring turbidity are summarized in the table below:
Table 1
Area of Soil Monitoring Monitoring Sample Method
Disturbance Required? Frequency
Sites which Only IF a Monthly IF a Procedure consistent with 40
disturb 1 acre or Registration is Registration CFR Part 136
more,but less required is required
than 5 acres
Sites which Yes Monthly Procedure consistent with 40
disturb 5 acres or CFR Part 136
more
(1) Turbidity Monitoring Requirements
(A) Monitoring Frequency
(i) Sampling shall be conducted in accordance with Table 1, above, at least once every
month,when there is a discharge of stormwater from the site while construction
activity is ongoing,until final stabilization of the drainage area associated with each
outfall is achieved.
(11) The permittee is only required to take samples during normal working hours as defined
in Section 2. The site's normal working hours must be identified in the Plan pursuant
to Section 5(b)(1)(B)(vii). If sampling is discontinued due to the end of normal
working hours,the permittee shall resume sampling the following morning or the
morning of the next working day following a weekend or holiday, as long as the
discharge continues.
(III) Sampling may be temporarily suspended any time conditions exist that may reasonably
pose a threat to the safety of the person taking the sample. Such conditions may
include high winds, lightning, impinging wave or tidal activity, intense rainfall or other
BMMCA Rev.8/21/13
DEEP-WPED-GP-015 38 of 45
hazardous condition. Once the unsafe condition is no longer present, sampling shall
resume.
(iv) If there is no stormwater discharge during a month, sampling is not required.
(B) Sample Collection
(i) All samples shall be collected from discharges resulting from a storm event that occurs
at least 24 hours after any previous storm event generating a stormwater discharge.
Any sample containing snow or ice melt must be identified on the Stormwater
Monitoring Report form. Sampling of snow or ice melt in the absence of a storm event
is not a valid sample.
(ii) Samples shall be grab samples taken at least three separate times during a storm event
and shall be representative of the flow and characteristics of the discharge(s). Samples
may be taken manually or by an in-situ turbidity probe or other automatic sampling
device equipped to take individual turbidity readings (i.e.not composite). The first
sample shall be taken within the first hour of stormwater discharge from the site. In
cases where samples are collected manually and the discharge begins outside of normal
working hours,the first sample shall be taken at the start of normal working hours.
(C) Sampling Locations
(i) Sampling is required of all point source discharges of stormwater from disturbed areas
except as may be modified for linear projects under subparagraph(ii)below. Where
there are two or more discharge points that discharge substantially identical runoff,
based on similarities of the exposed soils, slope,and type of stormwater controls used,
a sample may be taken from just one of the discharge points. In such case,the
permittee shall report that the results also apply to the substantially identical discharge
point(s). No more than 5 substantially identical outfalls may be identified for one
representative discharge. If such project is planned to continue for more than one year,
the permittee shall rotate twice per year the location where samples are taken so that a
different discharge point is sampled every six months. The Plan must identify each
outfall authorized by this permit and describe the rationale for any substantially
identical outfall determinations.
(ii) Linear Projects
For a linear project, as defined in Section 2,the protocols of subparagraph(i),above,
shall apply except that up to 10 substantially identical outfalls may be identified for one
representative discharge.
(iii) All sampling point(s) shall be identified in the Plan and be clearly marked in the field
with a flag, stake, or other visible marker.
(D) Sampling and analysis shall be prescribed by 40 CFR Part 136.
(E) Turbidity Values
The stormwater discharge turbidity value for each sampling point shall be determined by
taking the average of the turbidity values of all samples taken at that sampling point during a
given storm.

Drainage & Water Quality Design
West River Farms
69 Lot Single Family Residential Open Space Subidivision (PRD)
Scantic Road, East Windsor, CT
July 27, 2015
NARRATIVE:
West River Farms, LLC proposes to construct a 69-Lot residential open space subdivision on
a 4 1± acre parcel of land which is bisected by the East Windsor/South Windsor town line.
The parcel contains approximately 24 acres in East Windsor with access to Scantic Road in
East Windsor, Connecticut. The rear of the parcel contains approximately 17 acres in South
Windsor bounded to the east by the Scantic River.
All 69 of the building lots are located in East Windsor, while all of the South Windsor portion
and part of the East Windsor property will be deeded as open space to the DEEP,the
respective towns or an approved land trust.
The southwest corner of the parcel includes a private roadway known as Schanck Road which
serves the abutters southwest of the subject parcel.
The proposed development in East Windsor consists of approximately 3,800 feet of new
public roadways to be maintained by the Town of East Windsor. The project includes a
stormwater collection system for the new roadways and a portion of Scantic Road and
Schanck Road. The applicant proposes to construct a wet pond within the open space
property in South Windsor. The proposed storm drainage system will be piped to a new wet
pond within the open space parcel in South Windsor for stormwater treatment prior to
discharge to the Scantic River. An easement in favor of the Town of East Windsor will be
provided over Schanck Road to the wet pond for rights to discharge and maintenance of the
stormwater system.
Drainage System Sizing
The proposed storm drainage system was sized for a 10-year storm event. Contributing
watershed areas (A)to each catch basin were delineated as shown on the attached Drainage
Area Map. Peak flow rates were computed using the Rational Method:
Q=A x C x i
Runoff Coefficients (C)were taken from Table 6-3 of the CT DOT Drainage Manual(DOT),
see attached. The Hartford County Soil Survey identifies the on-site soils as mostly Windsor
-1-
loamy fine sand and Penwood loamy sand which are classified as type A soils. According to
Table 6-3, C values for these soils range from .04 to .18 depending on slope of the
topography. We conservatively assumed a constant C of 0.15 for all pervious areas and 0.9
for impervious areas.
Rainfall intensity(i) for the 10-year storm event was taken from the DOT Table B-2.1
assuming a duration equal to the Time of Concentration(Tc). The Tc represents the time it
takes for runoff to travel from the most remote point in the watershed to the discharge point.
The Tc for each subcatchment was determined using methodology recommended by the DOT.
Flow paths for the largest subcatchments are also shown on the Drainage Area Map. The TR-
55 method of combining sheet, shallow concentrated, and open channel flow times was
considered for determining specific Tc, but the results were highly dependent on the assumed
length of sheet flow. This methodology was developed based on research of large drainage
areas of 200 acres or more. For small watersheds such as this one, sheet flow areas that
comprise more than 80% of Tc may not actually contribute to the subcatchment's peak flow
rate. Rather than attempt to exclude the sheet flow areas from the watershed, we
conservatively assume minimum Tc for each subcatchment. CT DOT Drainage Manual
recommends a minimum Tc of 5 minutes for paved areas and 10 minutes for grassed areas.
Travel Time (Tt)between structures was estimated using Manning's Formula assuming pipes
flowing full or half full. This is also conservative as the velocities during the Tc development
would not yet reach their peak rates. Dividing the length of flow by the velocity produced the
Tt. The subcatchment Tc was compared to the upstream combination of Tc +Tt. The larger
of the two values was used to computed the design Tc continuing downstream.
A summary of this analysis is showing on the attached Pipe Sizing Chart. The results
demonstrate that each pipe in the proposed network has a full flow capacity in excess of the
10-year design storm.
Gutter Flow Anal
Each drainage inlet grate was sized in accordance with Table 11-2 of the DOT Drainage
Manual for Local Roads with< 3,000 ADT except that a 10-year design storm was used for
non-sag conditions rather than a 5-year storm. Table 11-2 permits an allowable design spread
of no more than 1/2 lane width(6.5' assuming no shoulder and up to 8' assuming a 10' lane
with 3' shoulder) for non-sag conditions.
For sag conditions, Table 11-2 permits a maximum spread of"all except one lane width"
(combined left and right spread no more than 13 feet assuming no shoulder and up to 16'
assuming a 10' lane with 3' shoulder). To achieve these requirements, some drainage
structures were changed to double grates.
-2-
Using Manning's Formula, the actual gutter flow width(T) can be computed given a known
flow rate(Qlo), roughness coefficient(n=0.013 for smooth texture asphalt pavement),
longitudinal slope(S) and cross slope (SX 3.125%). The following formula was taken from
the DOT Drainage Manual Figure 11-1.1, solving for T:
T= [Q x n/(0.56 x SX1.67 X SO.5)(1/2.67)
The flow rate (Q)to each grate inlet is a combination of the overland flow within the
structure's watershed, and the bypass flow from the upstream structures. The overland flow is
determined by Rational Method(A x C x i). A rainfall intensity(i) of 4.8 in/hr was used for
watersheds with significant pervious areas, while watersheds of mostly impervious area
(>50%)used an intensity of 6.0 in/hr. Once a structure in the chain was identified at the lower
intensity, all subsequent downstream structures were also computed by the lower intensity.
This methodology is conservative because it neglects travel time along the gutter(since the
bypass flow represents only a portion of the total flow to the inlet).
Bypass gutter flow is proportional to the cross sectional flow area beyond the grate width(W).
The attached Gutter Flow Analysis Chart computes the flow(Q) and width(T) for each
structure and demonstrates that the maximum spread requirements are met. CB#4 & CB#5
were excluded because their contributing watershed was assumed to be insignificant. CB#23-
25 were also excluded because they are in existing Scantic Road which has no curbing. Any
gutter flow relief(such as when winter snow banks create a berm condition)will be an
improvement over existing conditions.
For structures in sag condition, equation 11.7 from the DOT Drainage Manual, was used to
compute the gutter spread(T) during weir flow conditions (<0.4 ft depth), by dividing the
depth(d)by the cross slope (SX):
T= [QC"/(CP)]2/3/SX
where:
Q= flow rate into grate opening(cfs)
P =perimeter of grate excluding bar widths and the side against the curb, 5.02 ft. for
single grates and 7.33 for double grates
C =weir coefficient, 3.0
CFs = factor of safety for clogging, 1.0 with curb inlet
SX=cross slope (ft/ft)
This analysis required selection of Type II double grate structures at CB#22, 21, 11, 2 and 1.
Due to the extent of bypass to CB#2,upstream structures CB#6 & CB#8 were converted to
Type I double grates. This reduced the spread at CB#2 to 6.7 feet. Combining this with the
spread at CB#1 of 6.3 feet, a full lane width of(26—6.7—6.3) 13 feet is maintained.

Wet Pond Sizing
The stormwater basin is designed as an in-line wet pond to provide water quality treatment for
the project before discharging to a new riprap scour hole along the edge of the Scantic River.
The wet pond was designed in accordance with the 2004 Connecticut Stormwater Quality
Manual. The required water quality volume (WQV) is computed by the following formula:
WQV = (1")(R)(A)/12
where:
WQV = water quality volume(ac-ft)
R = volumetric runoff coefficient(0.05+0.009(I))
I = percent impervious cover(%)
A = watershed area(acres)
The drainage area of the wet pond is 28.3 acres with 7.77 acres of impervious surface or
27.5%. However, two portions of this watershed first drain to infiltration areas:
1. Infiltration Basin on Lot 1
This infiltration area has a static storage capacity(excluding infiltration rate) of 4,056
c.f. (see attached HydroCAD table for Pond 1P). With a contributing watershed of 4.9
acres and 12.2% impervious,the WQV for this subwatershed is:
WQV=(l)(0.05+0.009(12.2))(4.9)/l2 x 43,560 sf/ac=2,842 c.f.
2. Infiltration areas along north side of Schanck Road
This infiltration area has a static storage capacity of 2,704 c.f. (see attached
HydroCAD table for Pond 2P). With a contributing watershed of 4.0 acres and 14.1%
impervious, the WQV for this subwatershed is:
WQV (1)(0.05+0.009(14.1))(4.0)/12 x 43,560 sf/ac=2,569 c.f.
Both infiltration areas provide treatment volume greater than the WQV for their respective
watersheds, and therefore these watersheds can be excluded from the wet pond sizing.
Subtracting these areas produces a net watershed of 19.4 acres with 33.9% impervious
coverage.
Therefore,the required WQV for the wet pond is:
WQV = (1)(0.05+0.009(33.9))(19.4)/12 x 43,560 sf/ac=25,007 c.f.
-5-
The Wet Pond capacity(Including Forebay) is:
Elev. Area(sf) Inc. Vol. (cf) Total Vol. (d)
26.5 2,416 0 0 (bottom)
28 4,855 5,348 5,348
29.5 7,630 9,286 14,634
29.5 10,585 0 14,634
30 11,691 5,567 20,200
30.5 12,729 6,103 26,303 (permanent pool volume)
The pond forebay is sized to contain 10% of the WQV plus sediment storage. The annual
sediment load was computed multiplying the total area of disturbance within the basin
watershed (18.7 acres)times the sediment load rate for construction sites (1 ton/ac/yr):
Sed. = 18.7 ac. x 1.0 ton/ac./yr. x 2000 lb/ton/ 85 lb/cf=440 cf/yr
The Forebay capacity is:
Elev. Area(sfl Inc. Vol. (cf) Total Vol. (co
26.5 861 0 0 (bottom)
28 1,785 1,943 1,943
29.5 2,877 3,464 5,407 (forebay volume)
The forebay therefore has the following sediment capacity:
5,407 c.f. —(25,007 c.£ x 10%) =2,906 c.f/440 c.£/yr= 6.6 years
Groundwater Recharge
The Web Soil survey identifies the on-site soils within the subdivision as predominately
Windsor sands with a Hydraulic Soil Group designation of A. These soils are ideal for
groundwater recharge. The eastern portion of the site contains wetland soils which are not
suitable for infiltration. The Hydraulic Soil Group Approach described in the 2004 DEP
Stormwater Quality Manual, the Groundwater Recharge Volume (GRV) for these soils is
determined by the following formula:
GRV=(D)(A)(I)/12
Where,
GRV= Groundwater Recharge Volume (cubic feet)
D=Depth of runoff to be recharged(0.4 inches for A soils per Manual Table 7-4)
A=Watershed area(square feet)
I=Impervious coverage (ft/ft)
-6-
For the purposes of this analysis, we only considered the impervious area associated with
roofs,not driveway and roadways which are not ideal for infiltration due to potential
contamination and sediment clogging. Assuming an average roof area of 2,000 s.f.,the GRV
per lot would be:
GRV=(0.4 in.)(2,000 s.f.)(1 ft/ft)/12 =67 c.f./lot
If all roof areas were infiltrated, this would require a GRV of 67 x 69 =4,623 c.f.
Phase 1 and a portion of phase 3 will provide groundwater recharge by maintaining low points
from lot runoff to collect and infiltrate runoff before it overflows to the infiltration system.
This includes lots 1-17 and 56-69.
As previously noted, the infiltration area on Lot 1 has a static storage capacity of 4,056 c.f.
The infiltration area along Schanck Road has a 2,704 c.f. capacity. Both of these areas exceed
the GRV for their respective roof areas.
The other 38 lots do not have low points to drain to and therefore subsurface roof infiltration
is proposed. Lots 39-49 are not suitable for roof infiltration due to down gradient cut slopes,
limited flat areas, and the likelihood of siltier soils with lower permeability rates near the
existing wetlands. The two infiltration areas in Phase 1 provide extra recharge volume by
infiltrating lawn runoff as well as the roof runoff. This meets the Manual's intent to "recharge
volumes to the maximum extent practicable."
The remaining 27 lots in phase 2-4 will include subsurface roof infiltration as soils permit.
Two StormTech SC-740 chambers will provided a total static storage volume of 45.9 c.f./unit
x 2 units= 91.8 c.f. This exceeds the average GRV per lot of 67 c.f. When considering the
additional storage of the voids in the surrounding soil and the permeability rate of these A
soils, the actual recharge volume from these units is much greater. Permeability testing of the
onsite soils during lot development may support a reduction in number or size of recharge
chambers required.
Note:
We did not deduct these roof areas from the above WQV calculations for the Wet Pond since
they may not provide full treatment of the 1"WQV storm event.
Outlet Protection
Outlet velocities to the forebay will be minimized by use of a drop manhole structure.
Intermediate riprap is proposed to armor the slope from the outlet to the bottom of the
forebay.
-7-
The discharge point for the wet pond will be armored with a preformed scour hole designed in
accordance with the CT DOT Drainage Manual. A scour hole size of 15'xI8'x1.5' was
selected from Table 8-8.1 for a 36"pipe.
Riprap was sized for a 10-year storm event assuming a conservative tailwater depth of 0.5'.
Since the scour hole is in a floodplain, the actual tailwater depth will likely be greater. The
results of the riprap sizing are as follows:
Q10 = 33.3 cfs
Sp=Rp=3'
d50 =(0.0125Rp2/TW)(Q10/Rp2.5 1.33
_(0.0125(3)2/0.5)(33.3/(3)2.?)1.33 = 0.62' < 0.67 (int. riprap)
Conclusion
Due to the proximity of the project to the Scantic River, detention of stormwater is not
advisable. Detaining runoff would delay the peak discharge to coincide with peaks from
upstream flows,potentially resulting in impacts downstream. Infiltration of roof and lawn
runoff will be utilized where soil and topographic conditions permit to encourage recharge
and mitigate increases in runoff volume. The proposed wet pond will provide stormwater
quality treatment of the WQV and thus is expected to remove at least 80% of total suspended
solids (TSS). The proposed outlet is sized to prevent erosion and scour in accordance with the
CT DOT Drainage Manual. The proposed drainage system is designed in accordance will
accepted engineer practices and in our opinion will not adversely impact downstream
properties.

Regarding: West River Farms, 329-341 Scantic Road, East Windsor—new residential
construction -Natural Diversity Data Base 201505084 REVISED
Dear Ms. Steele:
In response to your request for another Natural Diversity Data Base (NDDB) Review of
State-listed Endangered, Threatened, and Special Concern Species for West River Farms in East
Windsor, I have revised the recommendations for the protection of bats based on recent guidance
received for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). Our records for this site
indicate the following extant populations of species on or within the vicinity of the site:
Northern Long-eared Bat(Myotis septentrionalis) Status: Federally Threatened and State
Endangered Species
Little brown bat(Myotis lucifugus) Status: State Endangered Species
Several bat species such as Northern long-eared bats and little brown bats have been affected
by white-nose syndrome (WNS)which has killed thousands of bats in Connecticut and
throughout New England. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)has determined that
just the Northern long-eared bat population has declined by 90 percent in New England since
the appearance of WNS. The Department of Energy and Environmental Protection(DEEP)
has been actively involved with investigating the impact of WNS since 2007. DEEP, other
state wildlife agencies in the Northeast, the USFWS, and many other academic and
conservation partners are working in concert to find solutions and stop this unparalleled
mortality.
Recommendations: Tree cutting should be conducted in the winter when the bats are not in
the area, specifically work should not be conducted after April 15th through September 30th.
Long-term impacts can be minimized by retaining large diameter coniferous and deciduous
trees whenever possible. If these bats are found,please report the information to the Wildlife
Division.
The Natural Diversity Data Base includes all information regarding critical biological
resources available to us at the time of the request. This information is a compilation of data
79 Elm Street,Hartford,CT 06106-5127
www.ct.gov/deep
Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer
collected over the years by the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection's Natural
History Survey and cooperating units of DEEP,private conservation groups and the scientific
community. This information is not necessarily the result of comprehensive or site-specific field
investigations. Consultations with the Data Base should not be substituted for on-site surveys
required for environmental assessments. Current research projects and new contributors
continue to identify additional populations of species and locations of habitats of concern, as
well as, enhance existing data. Such new information is incorporated into the Data Base as it
becomes available. If the project is not implemented within 12 months, then another Natural
Diversity Data Base review should be requested for up-to-date information.
Please be advised a more detailed review may be conducted as part of any subsequent
environmental permit applications submitted to the Department of Energy and Environmental
Protection for the proposed site. Should state involvement occur in some other manner, specific
restrictions or conditions relating to the species discussed above may apply.
Thank you for consulting the Natural Diversity Data Base. If you have further questions,
I can be reached by email at Elaine.hinschnct.gov.
