Site Modifications <br />• <br />tv ••• <br />The existing property is used for other seasonal purposes in addition to the salt sand operations <br />during the fall and winter months. The proposed storage building would be located in the northeast <br />comer of the property which is currently used to store the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District <br />(LMCD) milfoil harvesters. To continue accommodating the storage o: dne milfoil harvesters, a <br />proposed storage area would be provided in the northwest comer of the rroperu'. The storage area <br />would be 68' W X 141* L with an 8" deep aggregate surface. The grade of the storage area would be <br />0.5% east toward the existing bituminous. Tlie storage area drainage would flow east and south to an <br />existing 18" CMP culvert which outlets into Wetland #1 in the southwes: comer of the property. <br />The area east of the existing bituminous mat and including the storage building and 10' perimeter <br />would be changed from a gravel surface to a bituminous surface 147' X 257 ’ L consisting of 6" of <br />bituminous and 8" of granular material. The grade of the proposed biouuinous mat would be 0.9% <br />toward the southeast. The drainage would flow to Wetland #3 in the soumeasi comer of the property. <br />The proposed bituminous area would provide a stable maneuv ering arei for vehicles and a surface for <br />aggregate stockpiling. <br />The grading excavation necessary for the improvements would be apprrximately 400 C.Y. for the <br />milfoil harv'ester parking area, 1,500 C.Y. for the Pond A grading, and ".000 C.Y. for the salt storage <br />building site including the three swales and bituminous mat. The salt s*.::age building footing <br />excavation would be additional and dependent on the footing design. <br />Stormwater Management <br />The building location in the northeast comer of the property is the farthest practical location from the <br />wetlands receiving stormwater runoff from the site. This location will maximize the time of <br />concentration allowing the turf areas to filter stormwater runoff. The existing drainage flow is to <br />three separate wetlands located on the south side of the property. The existing wetlands are referred <br />to as Wetland #1, Wetland #2 and Wetland #3 from west to east. The peak rate of stormwater mnoff <br />would be limited to the predevelopment condition. The hydraulic anal> sis is being performed and <br />will be forwarded immediately upon completion. The runoff shall be ar.alyzed for events of critical <br />duration with return frequencies of 1,10 and 100 years which is critehc.” set by the Minnehaha Creek <br />Watershed District under Rule N. <br />The proposed drainage closely mimics the existing with the following .T.odificaiions: <br />• Drainage Swale 1 is 2' wide with variable depth paralleling the nors. edge of bituminous with <br />0.3% grade to proposed catch basin 2 located north of the existing bimminous and central to the <br />property. <br />• Drainage Swale 2 is 4' wide and 1' deep paralleling the north side c: the proposed storage <br />building with a 0.5% grade to proposed catch basin 2. Catch basin 2 outlets through a proposed <br />15" plastic storm sewer pipe that flows to proposed catch basin 1. Catch basin 1 outlets into <br />proposed Pond A through a proposed 15" plastic storm sewer with a CMP apron end section. <br />• Drainage Swale 3 is 4' wide and 1' deep and parallels the east side c: the proposed bituminous <br />mat with a 1 .5% grade to proposed Pond A. <br />a
