Section 1 - Scope of Report
1.1 Scope
The purpose of this report is to present the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
(SWPPP) for the Costco Wholesale that is proposed at the northwest quadrant of the
intersection of the Taconic State Parkway and Crompond Road (NYS Route 35/U.S.
Route 202) in the Town of Yorktown, Westchester County, New York. The SWPPP has
been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the New York State Department of
Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) State Pollution Discharge Elimination System
(SPDES) General Permit for Discharges from Construction Activity GP-0-10-001
(General Permit). The General Permit authorizes stormwater discharges from
construction activities where disturbance of one (1) acre or more of land is involved.
The stormwater management design has been performed in accordance with the technical
standards provided in the latest version of the New York State Stormwater Management
Design Manual (DEC Design Manual) dated August 2010. The SWPPP has also been
prepared in accordance with Chapter 248, Stormwater Management and Erosion and
Sediment Control, of the Town of Yorktowns Municipal Code. Since the Town of
Yorktown is a regulated, traditional land use control MS4 entity as defined in the General
Permit, the Town will be responsible for review and approval of the SWPPP. Since the
project is also situated within the New York City watershed located east of the Hudson
River, the project has also been designed to meet the requirements of the New York City
Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP) Rules and Regulations for the
Protection from Contamination, Degradation and Pollution of the New York City Water
Supply and its Sources (Rules and Regulations).
This SWPPP has been prepared in accordance with Section 18-39 of the referenced
NYCDEP Rules and Regulations. The project site is situated within a Designated Main
Street Area and therefore relief from certain design requirements is granted. For
example, relief is provided from the development restrictions associated with the 100 foot
watercourse offset as stated in Section 18-39(a)(3). Relief is also provided from the
requirement of two types of stormwater management practices in series as stated in
Section 18-39(c)(6)(ii).
During construction, the potential for soil erosion and sedimentation will be controlled by
soil erosion and sediment control devices designed and installed in accordance with the
New York State Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control dated
August 2005.
1.2 Record Keeping
In accordance with the requirements of the General Permit, the Owner/Operator shall
maintain a record of all inspection reports in a site logbook. The site logbook shall be
maintained on site and be made available to the permitting authority upon request. The
site logbook shall contain the following documents:

Section 2 - Project Information
2.1 Project Description
The proposed Costco Project is situated on an 18.75-acre tract of land located in the
northwest quadrant of the intersection of the Taconic State Parkway and NYS Route
35/U.S. Route 202 (Crompond Road), in the Town of Yorktown, Westchester County,
New York (see Appendix B, Figure 1 - Site Location Map). The site has frontage along
the Taconic Parkway, NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202 and Old Crompond Road. The
existing site is presently developed. The development consists of four separate uses,
which includes two residences, Zinos Wholesale Nursery, King Gate and Fence
Company and the former Yorktown Motel. The Project proposes demolition of the entire
existing development and infrastructure, and development of a 151,092 square feet
building supported by 610 parking spaces and a 12-dispenser fueling facility.
The current development encompasses approximately 10.15 acres of the existing site,
with current land cover as described in Table 2-1.

The proposed project also includes the construction of sanitary sewer and gas main
extensions within Old Crompond Road, from approximately 200 feet east of Stoney
Street to NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202. Offsite roadway improvements will also consist
of widening NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202 along the site frontage and east of the Site

frontage, ending east of the NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202/Taconic State Parkway
interchange at Strang Boulevard.
The construction of the offsite utility extensions in Old Crompond Road will disturb
approximately 0.4 acre. The construction of the proposed offsite roadway improvements
will disturb approximately 2.1 acres, including the disturbance associated with
construction of 0.77 acre of new impervious surfaces.
Therefore, the total disturbed area for the proposed project is approximately 16.5 acres.
2.2 Soils
Review of the Soil Survey of Westchester County indicates that there are seven types of
soils present on the proposed site (Appendix B, Figure 3 - Soils Map). Table 2-3 below

Section 3 - Storm Water Management
3.1 Green Infrastructure Planning
In accordance with Section 3.6 of the DEC Design Manual, storm water management has
been developed for the proposed Costco by applying a five-step process, which includes:
1. Site Planning to preserve natural features and reduce impervious cover;
2. Calculation of water quality volume (WQv);
3. Incorporation of green infrastructure (GI) techniques and standard storm water
management practices (SMPs) with Runoff Reduction (RRv) Capacity;
4. Use of standard SMPs to treat WQv not reduced by GI techniques and SMPs with
Runoff Reduction (RRv) Capacity, and;
5. Volume and peak rate control practices.
Several green infrastructure planning practices found in Table 3.1 (Page 3-5) of the DEC
Design Manual have been applied to preserve and minimize impact to natural resources
as well as reduce impervious cover. Following is a description of the planning practices
applied to this Project.
Preservation of Natural Resources
Preservation of Undisturbed Areas
As shown in Table 2-1, approximately 8.60 wooded acres of the existing site is presently
undisturbed. The undisturbed area is generally located in the western portion of the site.
The proposed site development is generally located within the previously developed area,
and in the eastern portion of the property. After development, approximately 4.74 acres
of the woods on site will remain undisturbed.
Preservation of Wetlands and Waterways
The Project site includes two wetlands. Wetland A is 0.91 acres and is located on a
north-south axis in the western portion of the site. Wetland B is 0.13 acres and is situated
in the northeast corner of the site. Within Wetland A is a stream which flows from north
to south, exiting at the southwest corner of the site. The proposed development avoids
direct impact to both wetlands as well as the stream.
Preservation of Buffer
The Town of Yorktowns Wetland Ordinance, Chapter 178 of the Municipal Code,
establishes a 100-foot buffer around wetlands. Work within this buffer is a regulated
activity and requires granting of a wetland permit by the Town Planning Board. The
project proposes disturbance within the buffers of Wetlands A and B. Wetland B is a
lesser quality wetland in terms of function than Wetland A. Therefore, the development
encroaches further into the buffer of Wetland B in order to minimize encroachment into
the buffer of Wetland A. (See Section III.F and Appendix C of the Projects FEIS for
additional description of the wetland functions.)
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 7
Of the 100 foot wooded buffer associated with Wetland A, all of the western buffer and
roughly two-thirds of the eastern buffer nearest the wetland will remain undisturbed
under the modified Site Plan. Eastern buffer disturbance will be minimized by
constructing a retaining wall and shortened earth embankment along the westerly edge of
the parking area. The earth embankment will be planted primarily with a mix of shrubs,
trees, and low maintenance groundcover. Accounting for an additional 10-foot
construction corridor at the toe of the proposed wall, 0.52 acres of the Wetland A buffer
will be disturbed. Impervious surfaces will not be constructed within the buffer. (See
Section III.G of the Projects FEIS for additional description of the reduced impacts to
the Wetland A buffer).
Of the 100 foot buffer associated with Wetland B, the proposed impervious surfaces and
disturbance limit would generally be kept approximately 20 feet and 10 feet, respectively
from the wetland. Construction has been proposed near Wetland B in order to locate the
development as far as practical from Wetland A.
Reduction of Clearing and Grading
The Project proposes limiting the onsite soil disturbance to approximately 14.01 acres,
thereby maintaining approximately 4.74 acres as undisturbed.
Maintaining Sensitive Areas
The Project proposes locating the majority of the development at the eastern and central
portions of the site. Therefore, the most sensitive areas to the west including the stream,
Wetland A and most of its buffer, and much of the Project sites steepest slopes will be
preserved.
In addition to preserving natural resources as described above, the design reduces
proposed impervious cover by the following planning practices:
Reduction in Impervious Cover
Parking Reduction
The standard parking stall dimensions required by Costco is 10-feet by 20-feet, with the
standard drive aisle width of 24-feet. These standard dimensions have been reduced for
this Project, resulting in an overall reduction of proposed impervious pavement. The
reductions in pavement are accomplished by first reducing the 10-feet wide stall
dimension to 9-feet for 296 parking spaces, approximately 49% of the parking area.
These narrower parking spaces are located further from the entrance. In addition to
narrowing the width of selected parking spaces, the 20-feet space length was reduced to
18.5-feet in nearly all locations. In turn, this reduces the 64-foot dimension normally
required for a double parking bay (including the drive aisle) to 61 feet. Further
reductions to impervious area by reducing the width of drive aisles is not practical as the
minimum dimensions provided are necessary to secure traffic safety.
In addition to reducing impervious surfaces through reduction of parking stall
dimensions, the Applicant proposes minimizing the total number of parking spaces. This
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 8
Project proposes 610 parking spaces, which equates to a parking index of 4.04 spaces per
1,000 square feet. Costco historic data, as well as the Institute of Traffic Engineers
(ITE), Chapter 5.2.6 of the DEC Design Manual and the Applicants 2012 Parking
Utilization Study (FEIS Section III.L and FEIS Appendix H) support a parking index of
less than 4 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet.
By implementing these two planning strategies the amount of proposed impervious area
will be reduced by approximately one acre when compared to a parking area using
Costco standard parking dimensions and a parking index required by Town zoning.
3.2 Water Quality Volume (WQv)
Chapter 4 of the DEC Design Manual provides the following equation to determine the
WQv (in acre-feet of storage):
WQv =(P) (Rv) (A)
12
Where:
WQv = water quality volume (in acre-feet)
P = 90% Rainfall Event Number (see Figure 4.1, DEC Design Manual)
Rv = 0.05 +0.009 (I), where I is the percent of impervious cover
A = site area in acres (onsite)
The value of the 90% Rainfall Event (P) for the northwestern part of Westchester County,
New York is 1.2 inches.
The Project is located within the New York City East of Hudson (EOH) Watershed.
SMPs shall be sized in accordance with Section 18-39(c) (3) of the latest New York City
Rules and Regulations dated April 2010 to capture and treat either WQv as computed
above, or the estimated runoff volume resulting from the one-year 24-hour storm using
NRCS methodology (TR-55 and TR-20) over the post-development drainage area,
whichever is greater. Based on consultation with the NYCDEP, the 1 year, 24-hour
rainfall value (P) of 3.0 inches based on the updated isohyetal map (Figure 4.2 in the
DEC Design Manual) from the Northeast Regional Climate Center (NRCC) was used.
Standard SMPs shall be designed in accordance with standards in Chapters 6 and 10 of
the DEC Design Manual.
While the proposed project includes some areas of redevelopment (i.e. disturbance and
reconstruction of existing impervious surfaces), it primarily entails new construction (i.e.
construction of new impervious surfaces and new land disturbance). The proposed
Costco project will result in the construction of 9.10 acres of new impervious surfaces,
8.33 acres onsite and 0.77 acre as part of the offsite roadway improvements.
In addition, Page 9-2 of the DEC Design Manual provides that [f]or redevelopment
projects located in critical environmental areas and other sensitive or regulated areas,
however, all attempts should be made to seek compliance with the technical standards set
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 9
elsewhere in this manual. (emphasis added). The New York City EOH Watershed is a
sensitive or regulated area warranting that compliance.
Therefore, the Projects post-construction SMPs will be designed in accordance with the
technical standards applicable to new construction as described in Chapters 3, 4, and 5 of
the DEC Design Manual. Those new construction standards include Stormwater
Management Planning (see Section 3.1 above), the unified storm water sizing criteria (per
this section plus Sections 3.4 and 3.5 below), and green infrastructure practices to provide
runoff reduction (see Section 3.3 below).
The required WQv to be captured and treated, prior to the incorporation of green
infrastructure techniques and standard SMPs with Runoff Reduction Volume (RRv)
capacity (see Section 3.3 below), is 2.79 acre-feet (121,532 cubic feet). Item No. 2 of the
Storm Water Management Green Infrastructure (GI) Planning and Practice Selection
Worksheet in Appendix C shows that the greater WQv computed is the estimated runoff
volume resulting from the one-year 24-hour storm (P rainfall value of 3.0 inches) using
NRCS methodology (TR-55 and TR-20) over the total post-development contributing
drainage area of 24.28 acres within the limits of study (see Section 3.5C, Table 3-2).
3.3 Runoff Reduction Techniques
Runoff reduction is the reduction of WQv achieved through application of green
infrastructure (GI) techniques and standard SMPs having runoff reduction volume (RRv)
capacity. In order to satisfy the RRv criteria, Section 3.6 of the DEC Design Manual
requires the total (100%) reduction of WQv through the iterative application of GI
techniques and standard SMPs.
However, the DEC Design Manual also states that projects that do not/cannot achieve
100% reduction of WQv must reduce a percentage of the runoff from new impervious
areas to be constructed for the project, at a minimum. The reduction is achieved when
the runoff is captured, routed through GI or an SMP, infiltrated into the ground, reused,
reduced by evapotranspiration, and eventually removed from the storm water discharge
from the site. The percent reduction is based on the Hydrologic Soil Groups (HSGs) of
the project and is defined by the parameter Specific Reduction Factor (S).
The targeted, or minimum, RRv required is calculated using the following formula as
described in Section 4.3 of the DEC Design Manual:
RRv =(P) (Rv)* (Ai)
12
Where:
Ai = (S) (Aic)
Ai= = Impervious cover targeted for runoff reduction
(Aic) = Total area of new impervious cover
Rv* = 0.05 +0.009 (I), where I is 100% impervious
S = Hydrologic Soil Group (HSG) Specific Reduction Factor (S)
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 10
The proposed Costco project and its associated offsite roadway improvements will result
in the construction of 9.10 acres of new impervious surfaces. In the absence of 100%
reduction of WQv, the targeted RRv for this project is 0.78 acre-feet, or 33,977 cubic feet
(See Item No.3 of the GI Worksheet in Appendix C for detailed calculations). RRv is
computed using the value of P equal to 3.0 inches.
Application of Green Infrastructure (GI) Techniques
Recommended green infrastructure techniques for runoff reduction listed in Tables 3.2
and 5.7 of the DEC Design Manual were considered for use in this Project to the extent
practicable. As required by Section 5.3 of the DEC Design Manual, explanations are
given to either the applicability and/or feasibility of each technique as described below:
Conservation of Natural Areas
Approximately 8.92 acres, most notably the western portion of the drainage area, which
contains Wetland A, a stream and wooded buffer (both offsite and onsite), have been
preserved in their natural state.
Sheet Flow to Riparian Buffers and Filter Strips
The riparian buffers both east and west of the existing stream currently sheet flow toward
the stream. This remains unchanged for the buffer west of the stream and for the inner
two-thirds of the eastern buffer adjacent to the stream. However, this technique cannot
be applied since all of the undisturbed area within the buffers was already accounted for
under Conservation of Natural Areas.
Vegetated Open Swale
Although implementation of a vegetated open swale was considered during the design
process, it was determined that sufficient space within the site development upstream of
the stormwater management pond was not available.
Tree Planting
A landscape plan has been designed for the project in which various plantings including
trees, shrubs and groundcovers are planted throughout the site. Perimeter landscaping is
provided along the NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202 perimeter, within the Taconic Parkway
right-of-way, along the westerly embankment, and within the interior of the site in
landscaped islands throughout the parking area. However, this technique cannot be
applied because (1) the slopes of the perimeter planting areas exceed five (5) per cent,
and (2) the raised landscaped islands are not directly connected to the proposed
impervious areas within the parking lot.
Disconnection of Rooftop Runoff
This technique cannot be applied to this project because the proposed building rooftop
area exceeds the maximum thresholds (500-2,000 sf) established in Section 5.3.5 of the
DEC Design Manual. Furthermore, disconnection of rooftop runoff is impractical for a
large commercial development in cold weather climates. In order to ensure customer and
traffic safety, the rooftop runoff will be connected to an enclosed drainage system in
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 11
order to prevent the potential hazard of icy sidewalk, parking area and roadway
conditions.
Stream Daylighting
The existing stream will be maintained in its natural state. Discharge from the detention
pond will flow through a closed pipe that will outlet to a level spreader which will
disperse outflow from the pond over an extended area, resulting in reduced concentrated
flow and velocities.
Rain Garden
The use of rain gardens for the Costco project is not feasible for two reasons: the
maximum contributing drainage area must not exceed 1,000 sf, and rain gardens cannot
be used to treat runoff from urban parking areas or roadways. Rain gardens are better
suited for treatment of runoff from residential rooftops and driveways.
Green Roof
The Owner/Operator believes that utilization of a green roof is not practical for the
proposed plan, as the Costco prototype building has been developed to maximize
construction and operational efficiency. The building structure is a pre-engineered
system designed to minimize the amount of material used and maximize the use of
recycled resources. Adding only four inches of growing medium would increase the
structural load on the roof by nearly four million pounds, resulting in increased use of
natural resources required for framing (steel), shipping (fuel) and would greatly increase
the cost and carbon footprint of the building. The Costco roof is equipped with as many
as 200 Energy Star rated skylights designed to maximize natural lighting while enhancing
the indoor environment for customer and employees. Interior lights are activated by light
sensitive photocells and are illuminated only when needed, thereby maximizing energy
efficiency. Costcos Solar White roof panels are solar reflective and exceed the value
required for LEED certification. Providing a vegetated roof would eliminate positive
effects of the solar white roof, increase the cost, complexity and long term maintenance
of waterproofing the 200 skylights.
Stormwater Planters
The roof area of the proposed Costco building is too large (151,000sf) to use storm
water planters, which are limited to maximum impervious drainage are of 15,000 square
feet.
Rain Tank/Cistern
Use of rain tanks is not practical for the proposed plan as the size of the tanks would be
prohibitive to store roof runoff from a building this size. The use of rain tanks would be
more applicable to a small scale project. In addition, any cisterns designed for use
throughout the year would need to be protected from freezing by insulating them, or
locating them indoors or underground below the frost line because of the winter climate.
These requirements would make the use of cisterns for this project cost-prohibitive.

Porous Pavement
The Owner/Operator and TRC recognizes that the use of permeable/porous pavement for
parking areas in cold weather climates has been successfully done with such projects as
the St. Marys Visitor Center in Montanas Glacier National Park and at the University of
New Hampshire Stormwater Center (UNHSC). The field experience at the UNHSC
porous asphalt parking lot located in Durham, New Hampshire led to the development of
the UNHSC Design Specification for Porous Pavement and Infiltration Beds in 2007
and further revised in October 2009. As stated in Part 1.1A of the Specification:
This specification is intended for a cold climate application based upon
the field experience at the UNHSC porous asphalt parking lot located in
Durham, New Hampshire, however the specification can be adapted to
projects elsewhere provided that selection of materials and system design
reflects local conditions, constraints, and objectives.
Based on the above, the use of permeable/porous pavement for the proposed Costco site
has to be considered based on the feasibility or limitations set forth in the DEC Design
Manual. For instance, Section 5.3.11 of the DEC Design Manual (page 5-116) states that
permeable/porous pavement should not be used where sand or other materials are
applied for winter traction since they quickly clog the pavement.
There are also other significant site limitations that either negate or severely limit the use
of permeable/porous pavement for runoff reduction on the Project. Pavement systems
designed for runoff reduction must be designed to the capacity of the underlying soil and
required elements of infiltration systems (DEC Design Manual, Page 5-115), so
permeable/porous pavements must be constructed directly over native soils that can
support adequate infiltration and have not been compacted, disturbed or filled. Since
most of the site parking areas will be constructed in proposed compacted fill the use of
permeable/porous pavement for runoff reduction is not feasible.
In addition, per Page 5-116 of the DEC Design Manual, the use of permeable/porous
pavement is not recommended for high volume parking lots, particularly drive aisles.
Since the parking area has been reduced as described in Section 3.1 of this report, all
remaining parking is considered prime parking and no overflow parking is provided.
For the offsite roadway improvements, the use of permeable/porous pavements subject to
the design requirements of the NYSDOT. At present, the NYSDOT does not allow
permeable/porous pavement on their roadways. The DOT is close to completing or has
completed construction of a one-mile stretch of Beach Road located adjacent to Lake
George in Warren County, NY using porous pavement specifically designed for heavy
traffic and use (see press release in Appendix C). While it is probable that the
performance of the Beach Road porous pavement will positively affect the DOTs future
decision regarding its use in roadway design, such a decision will not likely come in time
for NYSDOT to allow its use on the Project.

Application of Standard SMPs with RRv Capacity
As shown in the Storm Water Management - GI Planning and Practice Selection
Worksheet in Appendix C of the SWPPP, runoff reduction from the proposed Costco
project will be achieved through the design and construction of a subsurface infiltration
system as a source control within proposed Drainage Areas P-2b-1 and P-2b-2 plus most
of the impervious surfaces of Route 202/35 within the limits of the proposed offsite
roadway improvements. Infiltration practices are listed in Table 3.5 of the DEC Design
Manual as one of the acceptable standard SMPs with RRv capacity, with 90% of WQv
removed at the source.
In order to fully comply with the requirements of Section 3.6 of the DEC Design Manual,
the infiltration system, which will be located beneath the parking area as shown on
Drawing C-301 and Figure 5, has been sized to contain and reduce/remove 100% WQv
resulting from the 1-year, 24-hour storm over the contributing post-development drainage
areas using NCRS methodology (see Summary discussion below), without taking credit
for the rate of exfiltration as required by Sections 6.3 and 10.4.3 of the DEC Design
Manual. The system has also been designed to fully dewater the entire WQv within 48
hours after a storm event.
WQv/RRv flows (i.e. 1-year storm flows) from Drainage Areas P-2b-1 and P-2b-2 plus
the offsite impervious surfaces of Route 202/35 (Drainage Sub Areas DA-6 and DA-8)
will be captured and conveyed to the subsurface infiltration system at three points of
entry. Prior to entering the infiltration system, runoff will pretreated using three flow-
based, New York State verified, proprietary (hydrodynamic) structures such as a
VortechsModel 9000 device or equivalent. The proposed bottom of the infiltration
vault will be at elevation 419.0 (two feet below the lowest existing elevation where the
proposed vault will be located), with a 36-inch x 22-inch elliptical overflow outlet pipe to
convey runoff from storms greater than the 1-year event.
Subsurface data from four test pits (BINF-5, 6, 11 and 12) dug at the proposed infiltration
vault location as part of a subsurface investigation show the presence of coarse to fine
sands and gravels ranging from 0.5 feet below existing grade to ten feet deep with no
bedrock or groundwater present. Site-specific soil testing to determine infiltration rates
was also performed, in J anuary 2013 and witnessed by the NYCDEP. NYCDEP has
confirmed an acceptable percolation at the location of the proposed onsite infiltration
vault. DEP also confirmed percolation rates from testing of three out of the four test pits
ranging from 14.5 to 19 inches per hour. Refer to Appendix F for the complete report
with table of infiltration test results dated J une 3, 2013 prepared by Tectonic Engineering
and Surveying Consultants, P.C. A rate of 14.5 inches per hour was conservatively
used for the design of the infiltration system. All testing was done in accordance with the
New York State Stormwater Management Design Manual, Appendix D: Infiltration
Testing Requirements.
Summary
Through the application of green infrastructure (GI) techniques and/or standard SMPs
with RRv capacity, 100% of the WQv to be treated for the proposed Costco project will
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 14
be reduced. It should be noted that the total RRv provided (Item No. 14 of the GI
Worksheet in Appendix C) is a net value. This is because the application of the area
reduction practices discussed above causes the weighted CN value to increase from 82 to
91, thereby resulting in a slightly greater WQv using NRCS methodology (Item Nos. 11
and 12 of the GI Worksheet).
3.4 Water Quality Treatment Practices
The required WQv is 2.79 acre-feet (121,532 cubic feet), as stated in section 3.2, Water
Quality Volume. The proposed onsite subsurface infiltration system provides treatment of
slightly more than the full (100%) WQv, 2.91 acre-feet or 126,803 cubic feet, in a
standard practice. Detailed calculations are provided in Appendix C. By using a
standard practice listed in Table 3.3 of the DEC Design Manual that is designed in
accordance with the technical standards in Chapter 6, the project will meet the following
water quality objectives:
Capture and treat the full water quality volume (WQv).
Minimum 80% TSS removal and 40% TP removal.
Acceptable longevity in the field.
Incorporate a pretreatment mechanism.
The design of the infiltration system in accordance with Section 10.4.3 of the DEC
Design Manual to capture, remove and treat 100% WQv resulting from the 1-year, 24-
hour storm over the contributing post-development drainage areas also meets the
standards for enhanced phosphorus removal. As such, net removals of 80% particulate
phosphorus and 60% dissolved phosphorus can be achieved (Section 10.3.4).
Fueling Facility
For the purposes of storm water management, the proposed fueling facility is classified a
stormwater hotspot, which is defined in Section 4.11 of the DEC Design Manual as a
land use or activity that generates higher concentrations of hydrocarbons, trace metals
and toxicants than are found in typical stormwater runoff. As such, runoff from hotspot
areas cannot infiltrate untreated into groundwater, and a greater level of treatment is
required to prevent pollutant wash off after construction. Section 4.11 requires that
SWPPPs for stormwater hotspots include a series of operational practices at the site that
reduce the generation of pollutants. Therefore, runoff from the fueling facility will
receive separate water quality treatment prior to discharging to the site storm drainage
and the underground infiltration systems.
The fueling facility areas are graded in such a manner as to isolate their stormwater
runoff from the remainder of the site. Runoff from the tank filling area and the fuel
dispensing area will be captured and conveyed to separate perimeter sand filter systems.
Each system has been sized to capture and treat the 1-year, 24-hour storm runoff volume
from their respective contributing drainage areas. In addition, the drain inlet grates for
each perimeter sand filter will be fitted with inserts containing filters with a special
sorb type media specially designed to trap hydrocarbons, metals and silts in the runoff.
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 15
The pretreated runoff will then be conveyed to the underground infiltration system that
will provide final treatment and polishing. Refer to Appendix C for detailed design and
sizing calculations for the perimeter sand filters, and details of the catch basin inserts and
filters.
Coliform Analysis
In accordance with the NYCDEP Rules and Regulations, a coliform analysis was
performed. The analysis indicates that the proposed Project, with implementation of the
subsurface infiltration system will result in a decrease of coliform bacteria (Detailed
calculations are provided in Appendix C of the SWPPP).
3.5 Stormwater Peak Rate Control Practices
A. Methodology
The Unified Storm Water Sizing Criteria in Chapter 4 of the DEC Design Manual
typically requires that storm water quantity controls be designed and implemented
on development projects that increase runoff rates by increasing impervious area
and/or changing the hydrology under existing (pre-development) conditions.
Where required, the goal in designing and implementing storm water quantity
controls is to assure that post-development runoff rates will be equal to or less
than pre-development runoff rates for the for the 1, 10 and 100-year design storms
at a minimum.
Storm water quantity controls for Costco has been designed to assure that post-
development peak quantity runoff rates will be equal to or less than pre-
development runoff rates for the full range of design storms. A Type III, 24-hour
rainfall distribution was used for the 1, 2, 10, 25, 50 and 100-year design storms.
The rainfall values associated with each of the design storms are 3.0, 3.5, 5.0, 6.0,
7.0 and 7.5 inches, respectively. The controls have been designed in accordance
with Part III.B.2 of GP-0-10-001 and the following publications:
"Urban Hydrology for Small Watersheds" (Technical Release No. 55),
published by the United States Department of Agriculture, Natural
Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) (formerly Soil Conservation
Service, SCS), dated J une 1986.
New York State Storm Water Management Design Manual, August 2010.
The above rainfall values for the 2, 10 and 100-year storms are from the most
current version (August 2010) of the New York State Stormwater Management
Design Manual, which uses isohyetal maps from Technical Paper No. 40
Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the United States (TP-40) for 24-hour rainfall
values. An updated isohyetal map for the 1 year, 24-hour rainfall based on data
ending 2003 from the Northeast Regional Climate Center (NRCC), was used for
the 1-year storm, in accordance with NYSDEC, and NYCDEP. Rainfall values
for the 25- and 50-year storms were found in Figure 10-1 of the New York
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 16
Guidelines for Urban Erosion and Sediment Control Manual.
TRC is aware of updated hydrologic data and rainfall distributions for the 1-, 2-,
10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year design storms published by the NRCC in J anuary
2011. Of note, the NRCC 50-year rainfall (7.7 inches in 24 hours) and the NRCC
100-year rainfall (9.22 inches in 24 hours) amounts exceed the 7.5-inch rainfall
for the 100-year storm based on TP-40 data.
In a March 2013 meeting with representatives of the NYCDEP, TRC requested
clarification regarding which rainfall values should be utilized in the hydrologic
calculations. Although DEP representatives were aware of and recognized the
J anuary 2011 hydrologic data and rainfall distributions published by NRCC for
the various design storms, they verified that the required use of the NRCC data
has not been officially adopted as policy by the DEC. Therefore, rainfall amounts
used for the hydrologic analysis are those currently specified by in the DEC
Design Manual. See Appendix J for correspondence supporting this position.
However, in order to address concerns about the potential impacts of greater
precipitation events based on the NRCC data, the hydrologic models were run
using a range of rainfall values greater than the 100-year TP-40 value of 7.5
inches in order to evaluate the effectiveness of storm water management system
(see Section 3.5F).
The pre and post-development runoff rates provided in this SWPPP were
calculated using the computer software program entitled "HydroCAD, Version
10.0, Build 10. This program incorporates the methodology used in SCS TR-20
and TR-55 to compute and route flood hydrographs.
B. Existing (Pre-Development) Conditions
Under existing (pre-development) conditions, nine (9) drainage areas were
identified. The existing drainage areas are shown on Appendix B, Figure 4 -
Existing Drainage Area Map and summarized in Table 3-1 below. The drainage
areas total 23.62 acres, which includes 4.87 acres of off-site area in addition to the
18.75-acre site.
Design Points were identified for each of the existing drainage areas. The Design
Points represent the location where the majority of runoff from an area exits the
site. The same design points are identified in post-development conditions so that
a comparison can be made between the pre and post development conditions. A
description of each of the design points follows:
1) Design Point 1 is located at an existing 2 foot by 2 foot box culvert that
crosses Old Crompond Road approximately 100-feet west of the site. This
point is where the composite flow from Design Points 2, 4 and 5 merge.
This culvert discharges to offsite downstream areas southwest of the site,
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 17
where it drains into a large wetland area located between Old Crompond
Road and NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202. From the culvert, stormwater
runoff flows westerly through the wetland area to a piped system that
conveys the Sherry Brook to its terminus at Stoney Street where it
discharges to the Hunter Brook. Local residents have asserted that runoff
frequently bypasses the culvert at Design Point 1 and flows westerly along
Old Crompond Road some 650 feet where the runoff ponds before passing
through a 24 inch culvert, which discharges, to the wetland area cited
previously.
2) Design Point 2 is located at the southwestern boundary of the site where
the stream discharges offsite approximately 100 feet upstream from
Design Point 1. This location represents the point at which the majority of
the sites runoff leaves the site.
3) Design Point 2c is located at the existing point of discharge for the
Wetland A pond, or vernal pool. The Wetland A pond is depressed
approximately eight inches in depth, and therefore has some limited
capacity to provide stormwater detention. There is an earthen saddle at
the downstream end of the pond that functions as a weir to release flows to
the Wetland A watercourse that travel some 525 feet to Design Point 2.
4) Design Point 3 is located at the northerly boundary of the Project Site.
Runoff from this point drains overland to the north toward Bear Mountain
Extension where runoff merges with the Hunter Brook.
5) Design Point 4 is located at an existing drainage system (inlet and open
end pipe) situated along the easterly edge of Old Crompond Road some
160 feet north of its intersection with NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202. Low
flows are collected in this system and conveyed under Old Crompond
Road. The stormwater runoff flows overland to the wetland area, which
drains to the piped section of the Sherry Brook, which discharges to the
Hunter Brook. Stormwater runoff from all but the minor rainfall events
bypasses the drainage system and flows to Design Point 1.
6) Design Point 5 is located at an existing drain inlet situated along the
southerly side of NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202 at the southern boundary
of the Project Site. Low flows from the north side are collected and
conveyed in a pipe system under NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202 that
discharges to the south. Runoff from this drainage system flows westerly
to where it joins with the piped section of Sherry Brook, which discharges
to the Hunter Brook. Stormwater runoff from all but the minor rainfall
events on the north side bypasses Design Point 5 and flows to Design
Point 1. Runoff from DA-6 also contributes to this Design Point 5. See
Section 3.6 for further discussion.

site. The post-development drainage areas are shown on Appendix B Figure 5 -

of each proposed drainage area. Existing drainage area DA-E5 is included in
drainage area DA-P2b-1, because the proposed storm water conveyance system
will intercept the runoff from this area and carry it through the site.

reducing runoff volume through infiltration. However, in order to assure that
post-development peak runoff rates will be equal to or less than existing peak
runoff rates for the full range of design storms, stormwater detention is provided.
A dry extended detention pond will detain and attenuate runoff for the larger
storm events (i.e. the 2- through 100-year storms). Drainage Areas DA-P2b-1 and
P2b-2 drain to the pond. Reduction in peak discharge rates is accomplished
through a combination of detention storage and flow attenuation through a multi-
stage outlet structure.
D. Stream Channel Protection Volume (CPv)
Stream Channel Protection Volume Requirements (CPv), as stated in Section 4.4
of the DEC Design Manual, are designed to protect stream channels from erosion.
In New York State, this goal is accomplished by providing 24-hour extended
detention of the one (1)-year, 24-hour storm event that remains after runoff
reduction. The DEC Design Manual states that Reduction of runoff for meeting
stream channel protection objectives, where site conditions allow, is encouraged
and the volume reduction achieved through green infrastructure can be deducted
from CPv.
By sizing the proposed subsurface infiltration system for enhanced phosphorus
removal, (see Section 3.4) CPv requirements are automatically satisfied.
E. Overbank Flood Control
Overbank flood control, as stated in Section 4.5 of the DEC Design Manual, is
intended to prevent an increase in the frequency and magnitude of out-of-bank
downstream flooding. This is obtained by attenuating the post development 10-
year, 24-hour peak discharge rate (Qp) to predevelopment rates. For this Project,
the Qp has been reduced to below the existing peak discharge rate. The detailed
Qp calculations are contained in Appendix D.
F. Extreme Flood Control
The intent of the extreme flood criteria, as stated in Section 4.6 of the DEC
Design Manual is to prevent the increased risk of flood damage from large storm
events. This requires attenuation of the post development 100-year, 24-hour peak
discharge rate (Qf) to preconstruction rates. For this Project, the Qf has been
reduced to below the existing peak discharge rate. Table 3-3, Extended Detention
Pond Summary Table, indicates the inflow, outflow, water surface elevation,
storage and freeboard of the extended detention facility for each of the design
storms. Detailed calculations for the post-development drainage conditions areas
are contained in Appendix D.

It is important to note that runoff from the Costco project during a 100-year storm
will be detained below the proposed emergency spillway crest for the detention
pond, as shown in Table 3-3. The freeboard (height above the 100-year water
surface elevation to the top of berm) provided meets the minimum height required
of one (1) foot, satisfying current NYSDEC criteria (Sources: Section 4.6 of the
DEC Design Manual and Appendix A, Guidelines for the Design of Dams).
The emergency spillway will provide safe conveyance of runoff generated from
storms greater than the 100-year event to Wetland A and the stream, as well as
providing safe conveyance of runoff from the pond in the event that the principal
outlet structures become clogged or non-operational.
A summary of the existing and post-development runoff rates to each of the
design points is presented in Table 3-4, Peak Discharge Rate Comparison Table.
Because of the storm water quantity control measures, the peak runoff rates under
the post development condition will be less than the peak runoff rates for the
existing conditions.

Project No. 165213 Page 22
It should be noted that the largest areas from which storm water is discharged
from the site via the detention basin outlet pipes are at Design Points 2 and 3. The
combined discharge rates to DP-3, which drains north from the site, has been
reduced for all storms, thereby improving offsite drainage conditions. Discharge
rates from DP-2 are also reduced for all storms because of the proposed runoff
reduction measures and attenuation of the remaining runoff through the onsite
detention pond. Runoff from Design Point 1, which is located approximately
100-feet from the southwest corner of the property, is the most important point of
the analysis. DP-1 is the point at which runoff from Design Points 2, and 4
converge. The combined peak discharge rates at this point are markedly reduced
below present flow rates, thereby improving offsite drainage conditions.
Increased Rainfall Intensity Analysis
In order to address concerns about the potential impacts of greater precipitation
events based on the NRCC data, the hydrologic models were run using a range of
rainfall values greater than the 100-year design storm (TP-40 value of 7.5 inches).
The results of the additional analysis show that the proposed storm water
management system will provide effective reduction of post-development peak
runoff rates to pre-development rates for 24-hour rainfall events up to 8.25 inches

The hydraulic design model for the infiltration system was run based on 14.5
inches of infiltration per hour, although soil testing resulted in rates from 14.5 to
19 inches per hour (see also Response III.G 17). With effective maintenance of
the pretreatment facilities, the higher infiltration rates will be achieved resulting in
greater infiltration and reduced runoff. Therefore, the proposed storm water

management system will provide effective control of post-development runoff
rates to pre-development levels for storms of even greater intensity that the water
quality storm.
3.6 Offsite Roadway Improvements - Analysis
Construction of offsite roadway improvements within the NYS Route 35/U.S.
Route 202 corridor will be required in order to mitigate the projected traffic
impacts from the proposed Costco Wholesale project. The improvements,
consisting primarily of road widening to provide extra lanes for through and
turning movements, will extend along NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202 between
Old Crompond Road and Strang Boulevard. The improvements will also include
widening of Mohansic Avenue near its intersection with NYS Route 35/U.S.
Route 202.
TRC performed an analysis of two (2) composite (containing site and offsite
areas) and three (3) offsite drainage areas, all of which are within the Hunter
Brook watershed, in order to determine the potential impacts, if any, that the
proposed roadway improvements would have on storm water quantity and quality.
Storm Water Quantity
The offsite drainage areas are shown on Figure 6 through Figure 9 in Appendix B,
with summary discussions provided below. A summary of the quantitative
analysis for the six (6) offsite drainage areas is provided in Appendix D.
DA-4 As shown in Figure 6, proposed roadway widening along the site
frontage will result in a slight increase of 0.06 acre in impervious surface.
However, as shown previously in Tables 3-1 (Section 3.5B) and 3-2 (Section
3.5C), this increase will be more than offset by the significant decrease in
composite drainage area of 3.63 acres (from 4.08 existing to 0.45) post-
development. The decrease comes from the physical diversion of the 3.63
acres to site drainage area DA-P2b-1, resulting in reduced runoff from DA-4.
The diverted runoff will be conveyed by the site drainage system to the
subsurface infiltration system for runoff reduction and treatment, and the dry
extended detention pond (P-1) for attenuation. Runoff from the remaining
areas not diverted to the site drain to Sherry Brook, which drains to Hunter
Brook.
DA-5 Similar to DA-4 (Figure 6) and as stated in Section 3.5C, the entire
drainage area DA-5 (0.62 acre total, 0.56 acre impervious) will be diverted
under post-development conditions to drainage area DA-P2b-1. Although
proposed roadway widening along the site frontage will result in 0.20 acre of
new impervious surface, the proposed storm water conveyance system will
intercept the runoff from the area and carry it through the site to the
subsurface infiltration system for runoff reduction and treatment, and the dry
extended detention pond (P-1) for attenuation.

TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 24
DA-6 - Runoff from this drainage area drains to a roadside ditch, which is
conveyed to the Sherry Brook on the south side of NYS Route 35/U.S. Route
202. As shown in Figure 7, proposed roadway widening on Mohansic Avenue
for a new right turn lane at its intersection with NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202
will result in 0.14 acre of new impervious surface within the offsite drainage
area. However, when analyzed in terms of potential impact on the hydrologic
characteristics for DA-6, specifically its weighted CN, the small increase in
impervious surface relative to the 38.93 acre overall drainage area results in
no increase to CN. With no changes to the size and time of concentration
(Tc), there will be no increase in and therefore no impact to peak runoff rates
from area DA-6.
DA-7 Runoff from this drainage area drains north of NYS Route 35/U.S.
Route 202 and east of Strang Boulevard, crosses under the Taconic State
Parkway and then discharges to Hunter Brook headwaters approximately 1700
feet north of the Costco site. As shown in Figure 8, proposed roadway
widening on the westbound side of NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202 from
Strang Boulevard to a high point approximately 200 feet east of the
northbound Taconic Parkway off and on ramps will result in 0.07 acre of new
impervious surface within the offsite drainage area. Similar to DA-6, the
small increase in impervious surface relative to the 55.79 acre overall drainage
area results in no increase to CN. With no changes to the size and time of
concentration (Tc), there will be no increase in and therefore no impact to
peak runoff rates from area DA-7.
DA-8 - As shown in Figure 9, proposed roadway widening on the westbound
side of NYS Route 35/U.S. Route 202 from the high point approximately 200
feet east of the northbound Taconic Parkway off and on ramps to the
southbound Taconic Parkway off and on ramps will result in 0.30 acre of new
impervious surface within the offsite drainage area. Similar to areas DA-6
and DA-7, the small increase in impervious surface relative to the 37.17 acre
overall drainage area results in no increase to CN. With no changes to the size
and time of concentration (Tc), there will be no increases in and therefore no
impact to peak runoff rates from the area, which ultimately discharges to the
DOT drainage channel running adjacent to the eastern site property line.
Runoff is conveyed to the DOT detention basin located approximately 650
feet north of the Project site, where it is attenuated and treated prior to release
to the Hunter Brook.
The diversion of runoff from approximately 4.3 acres from drainage areas DA-4
and DA-5 to the onsite storm water management system for attenuation, plus no
increases in peak runoff from areas DA-6, DA-7 and DA-8 as discussed above,
will result in overall reductions to localized peak runoff rates within the NYS
Route 35/U.S. Route 202 corridor. When combined with the reductions in onsite
peak runoff rates as shown in Table 3-4, cumulative storm water quantity impacts

are mitigated under post-development conditions, thereby improving offsite
drainage conditions.

Notes:
(1) Since the drainage area is significantly reduced there will be a decrease in stormwater discharge, and
stormwater abatement is not required. (3.63 acres becomes part of DA-P2b-1)
(2) DA-5 runoff is rerouted to and treated by the Onsite Stormwater Management System. (0.62 Acres becomes
part of DA-P2b-1)
(3) The addition of the proposed impervious area results in no increase to the CN. Therefore, there is no
appreciable increase in peak runoff rates, and stormwater abatement is not required.
(4) Analysis is conservative as runoff from the 1-year storm will be captured and conveyed to the onsite
infiltration system.
Storm Water Quality
As part of the supplemental subsurface soils investigation performed by Tectonic,
six additional test pits, TP-1 (R) through TP-6 (R), were dug in March 2013
within the Route 202/35 right-of-way (see Appendix F report for locations) to
determine the feasibility of providing localized SMPs with RRv capacity for the
Route 202/35 improvements within the right-of-way. Infiltration tests for TP-3
(R), TP-5 (R), and TP-6 (R) were not performed because of unsuitable soil
conditions encountered, which consisted of either fill materials and/or fine-
grained soils (silts and clays) with very low permeability. Test Pit TP-4 (R) was
abandoned when excavation equipment damaged an unmarked, live water service
line after excavating to 3 feet below existing ground surface.
The subsurface soils investigation determined that providing localized SMPs with
RRv capacity within the right-of-way was not feasible, and therefore an alternate
means of meeting RRv requirements for the Route 202/35 improvements was
necessary. Table 3-7 below shows the proposed RRv/WQv treatment of each
drainage area from the improved portions of Route 202/35.

Storm water runoff from the 1-year, 24-hour storm for the majority of Drainage
Area DA-4 (0.94 ac.), plus runoff from DA-5, Sub-DA-6 and Sub-DA-8 will be
captured in proposed roadway storm drain systems and diverted to the subsurface
infiltration practice on the Costco site for 100% runoff reduction and water
quality treatment. Flows and volumes from storm events greater than the 1-year
frequency will continue to be conveyed to their current points of discharge. New
impervious pavement in these drainage areas will be 0.64 acres and the total
impervious area contributing runoff to be treated in the onsite infiltration practice
will be 2.91 acres, as summarized in Table 3-7.

Notes:

(2) Impervious area includes gravel (0.29 acres) and paved/building (0.73 acres) surfaces.
(3) Remaining Impervious Surfaces are existing pavements that will continue to contribute runoff to their
original design point without water quality treatment.
Runoff volumes equal to the minimum required RRv from the remaining fringe
portions of drainage areas DA-4 (0.06 acres of new pavement) and Sub-DA-7
(0.07 acres of new pavement) are unable to be diverted to the onsite infiltration
practice. Runoff from these areas will be conveyed to a dry swale (Sub-DA-7) and
a bioretention practice (DA-4) for reduction and treatment. See Figures 10 and 11
for the locations of these proposed practices.
As part of the an additional supplemental subsurface soils investigation, two test
pits, TP-BINF-X18 and TP-BINF-X21, were dug in April 2014 in the proposed
locations of the bioretention area and dry swale/infiltration trench within the
Route 202/35 right-of-way (see Appendix F report for locations). Subsurface data

from the test pits show the presence of coarse to fine sands with little gravel to
within five feet below existing grade with no bedrock. Groundwater was
encountered within 5 feet below existing grade. Refer to Appendix F for the
complete report dated April 30, 2014 prepared by Tectonic Engineering and
Surveying Consultants, P.C.
Providing reduction in runoff volume greater than the minimum RRv is not
possible in these fringe areas due to various physical constraints that exist,
including limited open area within the public right-of way outside the pavement,
steep slopes, limited available vertical storage depth, and limited operational
head.
In summary, as shown in Table 3-7, column (a) indicates that under existing
conditions, there is untreated runoff from 3.91 acres draining to the roadway
right-of-way. Column (e) indicates that under post-development conditions
untreated runoff from existing impervious area draining to the roadway right-of-
way will be reduced to 1.64 acres, thereby improving water quality draining to
downstream water bodies including Sherry and Hunter Brooks.
3.7 Storm Drainage System
A. Catch Basins and Drain Inlets
All catch basins and drain inlets will be equipped with a minimum 18-inch sump.
The catch basins will act as pretreatment devices by removing coarse grit, sand
and debris. The use of sumps will extend the life and performance of the selected
SMP.
B. Storm Pipes
Storm water runoff from the site will be directed to the detention pond by way of
onsite and offsite storm drainage systems. The storm drainage systems are
designed using the rational method and are sized for the 10-yr design storm. A
Hydraulic Grade Line (HGL) analysis was also performed for the 100-yr. design
storm to assure that the stormwater runoff will be conveyed to the detention basin.
The storm drain line calculations and HGL analysis have been included in
Appendix E.

Section 4 Maintenance of Stormwater Management Practices
4.1 Long Term Maintenance and Operations
Periodic long-term inspection and maintenance of the Stormwater Management Practices
(SMPs) is essential to ensure that the facilities will function as designed. The facility
owner/operator, its successors and assigns, shall be responsible for maintaining all onsite
SMP components. These components consist of the storm water management practices
and the storm drainage collection system (pipes, drain inlets and manholes).
Comprehensive descriptions of recommended inspection and required maintenance items
and intervals for the SMPs are provided in the following publications:
New York State Stormwater Management Design Manual, August 2010.
Maintenance Program Guidance, NYSDEC.
"Reducing the Impacts from Stormwater Runoff from New Development",
NYSDEC, Second Edition, April 1993, Chapter 7.
"Controlling Urban Runoff: A Practical Manual for Planning and Designing
Urban BMPs", by Thomas R. Schueler, Department of Environmental Programs,
Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (MWCOG), J uly 1987,
Chapters 3, 4, 5 and 9.
These descriptions are applicable to the selected facilities and provide the foundation for
an effective facilities maintenance plan. Descriptions of the facility maintenance for this
project are provided in the following paragraphs.
A. Dry Extended Detention Pond
Inspections. Ponds should be inspected periodically during the first six (6) months,
then on a semiannual basis to ensure that the structure operates in the manner
originally intended. When possible, inspections should be conducted during and
following major storm events (minimum 1.0 rainfall in 24 hours) to determine if the
pond is meeting the targeted detention times. In particular, the extended detention
outlet control device should be inspected once every six (6) months for evidence of
clogging, or conversely, for too rapid a release. The forebay and main basin should
also be checked for the accumulation of sediment and erosion problems. Other
problems which should be checked for include: subsidence, erosion, cracking or tree
growth on the embankment; the condition of the emergency spillway; the adequacy
of upstream/downstream channel erosion control measures; erosion of the pond's
bed and banks (side slopes); and modifications to the pond or its contributing
watershed that may influence pond performance. Inspections should be carried out
with as-built pond plans and the DEC Stormwater Pond/Wetland Operation,
Maintenance and Management Inspection Checklist in hand. A sample of the

TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 29
Checklist is provided in Appendix G.
Vegetation Management. The grass and turf areas in the upper stage, side-slopes,
embankment, and perimeter access areas must be mowed at least twice a year to
discourage woody growth and control weeds. Grass should not be cut below 4
inches, for if the grass is routinely cut too short filter strip performance may be
impaired. Grass clippings should be gathered and removed or directed away from
the SMP so that clogging of soil or inlet pipes can be avoided.
Other maintenance actions include de-thatching, soil conditioning and re-seeding.
Extensive application of fertilizers and pesticides to promote growth should be
discouraged since these substances may be picked up in runoff and have an
adverse effect on water quality.
Unwanted vegetation on embankments requires complete removal to ensure that it
does not return. Roots should be removed from the embankment to prevent
destabilization due to their decomposition.
Poorly maintained SMPs are particularly susceptible to the establishment of
undesirable plant communities that include monocultures and non-native
invasives that out-compete desired vegetation. Ongoing vegetation management
can minimize this concern.
Debris and Litter Removal. Debris, leaves, grass clippings and litter will accumulate
on pond embankments and side slopes, perimeter and access areas, and near the
extended detention control device and should be removed during regular mowing
operations. Particular attention should be paid to floatable debris (debris jams) that
can eventually clog the control device, trash rack or riser.
Erosion Control. The pond side-slopes, emergency spillway and embankment all
may periodically suffer from slumping and erosion, although this should not occur
often if the soils are properly compacted during construction. Re-grading and re-
vegetation may be required to correct the problems.
Nuisance Control. Standing water or soggy conditions within the lower stage of an
extended detention pond can create nuisance conditions such as odors, insects,
weeds and debris. Most of these problems can be controlled through periodic
mowing, debris removal and by ensuring that outlet structures of extended detention
control devices are kept free of debris and trash. Nuisance problems can be
contained within the lower stage of a two-stage detention facility. Wetland plants
established in the lower stage detention facility will provide habitat for birds and
predacious insects, which in turn will provide a natural check of mosquitoes and
other nuisance insects.
Structural Repairs and Replacement. Repair or replace as necessary structural
components that show signs of deterioration, seepage or failure. Various
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 30
inlet/outlet devices and standpipe or riser structures will deteriorate with time and
may have to be replaced. Concrete pipes and risers should last from 50 to 75
years. These elements should also be inspected by a licensed/certified
professional to determine their structural integrity.
Embankments should also be inspected by a licensed/certified professional who
can identify signs of seepage, settlement, and scouring. These and other problems
can threaten the structural integrity of the embankment, possibly leading to dam
failure.
Inflow Pipes. Inflow pipe locations should be checked for clogging caused by
sediment build-up, which is a common problem when runoff leaves an impervious
surface and enters a vegetative or earthen surface. Rip rap aprons shall be cleaned
of sediment and repaired (dislodged stones reset or replaced, etc.) as necessary.
Sediment Removal. Significant quantities of sediment, if left unchecked, can
accumulate in an extended detention pond and become unsightly. This can be
prevented through removal of sediment from the pretreatment forebays or
chambers as determined through inspection in order to preserve the available
stormwater management capacity of the extended detention pond, and to prevent
the outlet orifices from becoming clogged. Sediment removal in the forebay shall
occur every 3 years or after 30% of the total forebay, capacity has been lost.
Sediment removal from the main basin shall occur every five (5) years or when
the minimum water depth in the permanent pool approaches three (3) feet.
Most accumulated sediment in an extended detention pond does not constitute a
hazardous or toxic waste. Therefore, the sediment can be safely disposed of using
conventional techniques such as for fill, land application, or landfill material.
B. Vortechs9000
Standard construction details of the proposed Vortechs9000 unit are provided
in Appendix H. The facility owner, its successors and assigns, shall implement
the following inspection and maintenance protocol for the Vortechs9000 unit
using the VortechsMaintenance Guide provided in Appendix H.
C. Subsurface Infiltration System
All system components expected to receive and/or trap debris and sediment
must be inspected for clogging, excessive debris and sediment accumulation
at least two times annually. At least one of the inspections shall be done
within 24 hours after a storm event exceeding 1 inch of rainfall in order
to verify that the system is effectively infiltrating the runoff.
All sediment/silt, litter, trash and debris shall be removed from the system
upon any noticeable accumulation observed as part of the normal inspection
intervals. Sediment removal shall take place when the system is thoroughly
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 31
dry. Disposal of debris, trash, sediment, and other waste material shall be
done at suitable disposal/recycling sites and in compliance with all applicable
local, state, and federal waste regulations.
A written report of every inspection and maintenance procedure conducted in
the system shall be kept on file. The facility owner, its successors and
assigns, shall retain these reports as evidence of ongoing inspections and
maintenance.
D. Catch Basins
Catch basins and drain inlets shall be inspected at least twice a year cleaned out as
necessary. Inlet structures usually are cleaned out with a vacuum truck. Most
accumulated sediment does not constitute a hazardous or toxic waste. Therefore,
the sediment can be safely disposed of using conventional techniques such as for
fill, land application, or landfill material.
4.2 Maintenance Agreement
The Town of Yorktown, as the regulated, traditional land use control MS4 entity as
defined in the General Permit, shall require that the facility owner, its successors and
assigns, enter into an agreement to provide for the long term maintenance and
continuation of storm water control measures as part of the owners compliance with
Chapter 248, Stormwater Management and Erosion and Sediment Control, of the Town
of Yorktowns Municipal Code. A sample maintenance agreement is provided in
Appendix I.

Section 5 - Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Measures
5.1 Overview
During construction, the potential for soil erosion and sedimentation will be controlled
through the use of temporary soil erosion and sediment control devices. These devices
will be designed and installed in accordance with the New York State Standards and
Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control dated August 2005.
The soil erosion and sediment control plan will minimize the downstream erosion hazard
by controlling runoff at its source, minimizing runoff from disturbed areas and de-
concentrating storm water runoff. The objectives of the erosion control plan will be
achieved through the management of storm water runoff during construction.
5.2 Plan Contents
The soil erosion and sediment control measures that will be applied to the site during
earthwork and grading operation are as follows:
Minimize the amount of land disturbance at any one time.
Retain existing vegetation where feasible.
Stabilize disturbed areas that will not require further earthwork operations within
the required time frames specified under the General Permit and the New York
State Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control.
Trap sediment on-site prior to discharge from the site.
Construction of the Project, which includes the Costco site, the Old Crompond Road
utility extensions, and the Route 35/202 improvements, shall be done in strict
conformance with the detailed scheduling and sequencing plans referenced in Section 5.5
of this document below and as part of the erosion and sediment control (ESC) plans. As
shown in the Preliminary Construction Schedule (Figure 12, Appendix B) and in
accordance with Part II.C.3 of GP-0-10-001, the construction will disturb or leave
exposed no greater than five (5) acres of soil at any one time. The total project proposes
a maximum disturbed area of approximately 16.5 acres (Site 14 ac.; Route 35/202 2.1
ac; Old Crompond Road 0.4 ac.). Each phase/stage area must be temporarily and/or
permanently stabilized prior to disturbing subsequent phase/stage areas. As each
phase/stage area is cleared and graded, SESC measures shall be established and the soil
stabilized. It is important to note that the disturbance area values for the Project shown in
the Preliminary Construction Schedule represent the proposed maximum amount of soil
disturbance/exposure that will occur for each month during the construction period. It is
envisioned that the implementation of temporary and/or permanent soil stabilization
measures within each phase/stage area as described below should result in actual
Project disturbance areas less than the maximums shown.
ESC measures shall be adjusted on a continual basis as earth-moving operations proceed
from one phase/stage area to another. Sensitive resources, i.e. wetlands, will receive

Project No. 165213 Page 33
additional protection by using double rows of silt fence along the proposed limits of
disturbance within the buffer. Dewatering operations and surface runoff from disturbed
areas will be directed to sediment control measures.
A detailed phasing/staging plan showing compliance with the 5-acre maximum
disturbance requirement can be found on Drawings C-402A thru C-402E, and will be
submitted to the Town Planning Department for acceptance in conjunction with Final Site
Plan Approval. The accepted plan will be used by the Applicants, Towns, and/or
NYCDEP inspectors for field review and monitoring of the Contractors activities.
In accordance with Part III.C of GP-0-10-001, the Owner/Operator shall comply with the
following requirements:
The Owner/Operator shall have a qualified inspector conduct at least one (1) site
inspection every seven (7) calendar days.
In areas where soil disturbance activity has been temporarily or permanently ceased,
temporary and/or permanent soil stabilization measures shall be installed and/or
implemented within seven (7) days from the date the soil disturbance activity ceased.
The soil stabilization measures selected shall be in conformance with the most current
version of the technical standard, New York Standards and Specifications for Erosion
and Sediment Control.
The Owner/Operator shall install any additional site-specific practices needed to
protect water quality.
At a minimum, the qualified inspector shall inspect all erosion and sediment control
practices to ensure integrity and effectiveness, of all post SESC practices.
The qualified inspector shall prepare an inspection report and notify the owner or
operator and contractor of any corrective action that needs to be made.
Once disturbed areas have been stabilized, demolition or construction activities may
advance to new areas. Stabilization of disturbed areas must be provided by employing
temporary and/or permanent control measures.
Hydrology During Construction
The temporary sediment basin will be constructed early in Phase 2 of the project
construction (see Drawing C-401B). Runoff from the site during construction will be
directed to the sediment basin for attenuation and sediment removal.
The temporary sediment basin during construction has been designed to be larger than the
post-development detention basin. The sediment basin is designed to control the runoff
from the 10-year storm. This design, which is in accordance with the New York
Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control, accounts for the
following:
Increased runoff volume due to conditions during construction (including winter
conditions in which heavy rainfall can occur on frozen ground);
Additional storage volume necessary to provide proper sediment storage and
settlement, and;
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 34
To account for the fact that the infiltration facility cannot be brought on-line until
final stabilization of all contributing areas has occurred.
Considering these conditions, the sediment basin during construction will be larger than
the post-development detention basin, thereby providing extra protection for adjacent
Wetland A and downstream water bodies, including Sherry and Hunter Brooks. The
sediment storage volume provided conservatively accounts for 3,600 cubic feet of
sediment storage volume for each acre of contributing area (approximately 13.6 acres)
even though a maximum of only five acres may be disturbed at any one time, which will
further enhance settlement. Trapped sediment will be removed regularly from the
sediment basin to maintain adequate storage volume and ensure proper functioning of the
basin. The sediment basin design includes a riser pipe, an anti-vortex device, trash rack
and dewatering orifice that will provide the minimum 10-hour dewatering duration to
allow for adequate settlement. As another precaution to prevent sediment from reaching
Wetland A, the temporary sediment basin will discharge only to the north where it will
discharge to a level spreader. The outflow will then spread out over the existing wooded
terrain along its existing flow path allowing for further natural filtration. An added
precaution to protect Wetland A and downstream water bodies includes a double row of
sediment barrier, which will be installed along the entire westerly limit of work adjacent
to Wetland A to trap sediment and provide a physical barrier separating the wetland from
construction activities.
While under construction, runoff conditions of disturbed areas (bare/frozen soil) will be
similar to impervious conditions with short times of concentration and high runoff values,
as accounted for under post-development conditions. Since the sediment storage volume
within the sediment basin has been designed conservatively, as described above,
additional storage volume in the basin will be available to account for runoff in these
more extreme conditions. Site runoff will be directed (i.e. temporary drainage ditches
and water bars) to sediment control measures (i.e. sediment basin and sediment traps) for
settlement prior to discharge. Sediment barriers and traps will capture sediment from
perimeter areas.
5.3 Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control Measures
In addition to the temporary sediment basin, other temporary soil erosion and sediment
control measures will include, but not limited to, silt fences, diversion ditches,
stabilization of the construction entrance, sediment traps, storm drain inlet protection,
hydro-seeding and dust control. Detailed descriptions of each of the measures that will
be employed on the project have been included in the following paragraphs.
A. Silt Fences
Silt fences consist of standard strength filter fabric with wire mesh reinforcement
(or extra strength synthetic filter fabric) secured to supporting posts and
entrenched at the base. The fence will be three feet high; with the wire fence
reinforcement constructed of a minimum 14.5-gauge galvanized steel wire and a
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 35
minimum mesh spacing of six inches. Fences will be secured in place by
galvanized steel or wood posts set at six feet on-center. The filter fabric will be
stapled to the upgradient face of each fence. The purpose of silt fences is to
intercept and detain sediment contained in sheet overland runoff from disturbed
areas of limited extent. In addition, the silt fencing will physically delineate the
limit of work on the down slope side of work areas.
Installation and Maintenance
Silt fences will be installed where the disturbed land is located at a
minimum distance of ten feet from critical areas (streams and wetlands).
Silt fences will be installed on the down slope side of work areas, as close
to the disturbed areas as possible.
Filter fabric requirements and installation design criteria will be in
accordance with the requirements in the New York State Standards and
Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control.
Sediment will be removed from behind silt fences when sediment has
accumulated to one-third of the original height of the fence.
B. Hydromulch
Hydromulch shall be one of the primary means of stabilizing areas of disturbed
earth. Hydromulch is composed of a combination of cellulose (partially digested
wood fibers) and crimped polyester fibers in a gum-based tackifier. The
ingredients are non-toxic, biodegradable, photodegradable and environmentally
safe. Hydromulch is typically mixed with water and applied from a tank truck
using power equipment.
Hydromulches shall be applied in accordance with the manufacturers
requirements and/or the requirements of the New York State Standards and
Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control, with the top two inches of
compacted or crusted soil loosened prior to application. Hydromulch will be used
with mulching described below for all areas with slopes up to 20%. The
mulching on site will be continuously inspected and maintained for ultimate
effectiveness.
C. Mulching
Mulch shall be the other primary means of stabilizing areas of disturbed earth.
Temporary stabilization of disturbed areas will be accomplished by using a mulch
of wood chips created from the low-value trees cleared on site. These chips will
be stockpiled and protected in a manner similar to a soil stockpile until needed.
Straw mulch will be used for stabilized areas associated with permanent seeding.
Mulches shall be applied in accordance with the requirements of the New York
State Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control, with the
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 36
top two inches of compacted or crusted soil loosened prior to application.
Mulching is a very commonly used, well-established and highly effective
stabilization method. The mulching on site will be continuously inspected and
maintained for ultimate effectiveness.
D. Hydroseeding
Hydroseeding will be the means of providing temporary stabilization. The seed
mix of fertilizer, water, and mulch will be applied as a mixture utilizing power
equipment. The mix will be applied in two equal applications. Non-toxic,
vegetable dyes will be used to determine the extent of coverage upon application.
After grass has appeared, those areas that fail to show a uniform stand of grass
will be re-seeded. This process will be repeated until all areas are covered with
satisfactory growth. Seed mixtures appropriate to the soils, slopes, and uses will
be selected in accordance with the New York State Standards and Specifications
for Erosion and Sediment Control.
E. Erosion Control Blankets
Erosion control blankets typically consist of a rolled mat of interwoven straw
and/or coconut fibers with a top and/or bottom layer of natural or synthetic
netting.
Erosion control blankets will be used to stabilize all areas with slopes greater than
20%. Erosion control blankets will also be used with hydroseeding as a
temporary stabilization measure until final seeding. In addition, blankets can be
used as a permanent stabilization measure to help retain topsoil and seed after
final seeding, or as permanent turf reinforcement. This is possible because
erosion control blankets are classified under the following categories: temporary,
photodegradable; temporary, long-term; temporary, biodegradable; long-term
biodegradable; and permanent.
F. Dust Control
Dust Control shall be accomplished through the use of vegetative cover, mulch,
spray adhesive, sprinkling or barriers.
Water will be applied by sprinkler or water truck as necessary during grading
operations to minimize sediment transport and maintain acceptable air quality
conditions. Repetitive treatments will be done as needed until grades are paved or
stabilized with vegetation.
G. Stabilized Construction Entrance
A ramp of crushed stone extending a minimum distance of 50 feet will be
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 37
installed at each point of ingress and egress from the site. The purpose of the
device is to minimize the potential of tracking mud from the site onto public
rights-of-way.
Installation and Maintenance
Minimum length will be 50 feet.
Stone size - use 1-4" stone, or reclaimed or recycled concrete equivalent.
Length - not less than 50 feet (except on a single residence lot where a 30-
foot minimum length would apply).
Thickness - not less than six (6) inches.
Width - twelve (12) foot minimum, but not less than the full width at
points where ingress or egress occurs. Twenty-four (24) foot if single
entrance to site.
Filter cloth - will be placed over the entire area prior to placing of stone.
Surface water - all surface water flowing or diverted toward construction
entrances shall be piped across the entrance. If piping is impractical, a
mountable berm with 5:1 slopes will be permitted.
Maintenance - the entrance shall be maintained in a condition, which will
prevent tracking, or flowing of sediment onto public rights-of-way, all
sediment spilled, dropped, washed or tracked onto public rights-of-way
must be removed immediately.
When washing is required, it shall be done on an area stabilized with
stone and which drains into an approved sediment trapping device.
Periodic inspection and needed maintenance shall be provided after each
rain.
H. Water Barriers (Roadway Interceptor Swales)
This temporary device consists of an earthen berm and a crushed stone-filled
swale constructed across sloping unpaved proposed roadways. The purpose of this
device is to direct runoff away from the road surface and minimize sediment from
entering the drainage system. This shortens the length of disturbed slope by
intercepting runoff and diverting it away from the roadway catch basins and into a
channel.
Installation
Swales will be placed a cross roads, which are to be constructed in fill
every 150 feet on slopes of five to ten percent, and every 300 feet on
slopes less than five percent.
Swales will have a contributory drainage area less than five acres.
Swales will drain to sediment basins.

TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 38
I. Soil Stockpiling
Topsoil and earth material shall be stockpiled for reuse at the location shown on
the Erosion Control Plans. The stockpile has been located away from sensitive
vegetation or specimen trees and on a dry level area.
Installation
All stockpiles shall be protected using a perimeter dike of silt fence or
straw bale sediment barriers to prevent sediment runoff. This applies to
all stockpiles remaining in place for more than two weeks.
Stockpile side slopes shall not exceed 2 horizontal to 1 vertical (2:1).
Temporary seeding or covering of stockpiles shall be completed within
two weeks of formation.
J . Inlet Protection (Stone and Block)
Temporary catch basin protection will be employed to prevent the deposition of
sediment into the storm sewer system prior to the stabilization of exposed areas
with vegetation or pavement.
Installation and Maintenance
Stone and block filters will be placed around each catch basin inlet prior to
paving or stabilization with vegetation.
Sediment shall be removed from the filters when sediment has
accumulated to 50 percent of the filter's original height.
K. Catch Basin Sediment Trap III
Catch basin sediment traps will be utilized to provide sediment storage capacity
and to prevent the deposition of sediment into the storm sewer system prior to the
stabilization of exposed areas with vegetation or pavement.
Installation and Maintenance
Sediment shall be removed and the trap restored to its original dimensions
when the sediment has accumulated to 1/2 the design depth of the trap.
Removed sediment shall be deposited in a suitable area and in such a
manner that it will not erode.
The volume of sediment storage shall be 3600 cubic feet per acre of
contributory drainage.
The structure shall be inspected after each rain and repairs made as
needed.
Construction operations shall be carried out in such a manner that erosion
and water pollution shall be minimized.
COSTCO Wholesale Store and Fueling Facility
Yorktown, New York Preliminary Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
TRC Engineers, Inc. Revised July 9, 2014
Project No. 165213 Page 39
The sediment trap shall be removed and the area stabilized when the
constructed drainage area has been properly stabilized.
Cut slopes shall be 1:1 or flatter.
L. Excavation Dewatering
Sump pits shall be constructed to where water will collect in building foundation
excavation, utility trench or other location where water may collect during the
excavation phase of construction. The sump pit shall be constructed of a perforated
vertical standpipe placed in the center of the pit to collect filtered water. The
vertical standpipe shall be wrapped in a filter cloth (Mirafi 100X, Poly Filter GB, or
a filter cloth with an equivalent sieve size between 40 - 80). It is recommended that
to inch hardware cloth be wrapped around and secured to the standpipe prior to
attaching the filter cloth.
The vertical standpipe assembly shall be placed on a 12-inch layer of 2 inch
aggregate. After installing the standpipe, the pit shall be backfilled with 2 inch
aggregate. The standpipe shall project 12 to 18 inches above grade. The number of
sump pits and locations shall be determined by the contractor.
Water is then pumped from the center of the standpipe to a suitable designed
sediment trap, sediment basin, or stabilized area, such as a filter strip. If a sediment
trap or portable sediment tank is used, the tank or trap shall have a minimum
volume of the 16 times the pump discharge rate.
If oil contaminated water is encountered it shall be pumped into an oil/water/grit
separator unit. The separator unit shall be designed for gravity separation of free
oils (hydrocarbons and petroleum byproducts) along with some settleable solids.
The oil and grease concentration in the effluent from the oil/water unit shall not
exceed 10mg/l (10 ppm). The unit shall remove all free oil droplets equal to or
greater than 20 microns. The Separator Unit shall also comply with all Federal,
State and Local regulations. A portable sediment tank will be required as
pretreatment if the selected oil water separator does not have a grit chamber.
The Contractor shall submit the performance data for the selected oil/water
separator unit for review and approval prior to delivery to the site.
M. Concrete Waste
Discharge of excess or waste concrete and/or wash water from Concrete Ready-
Mix Trucks will be allowed on the construction site, but only in specifically
designated diked areas that have been prepared to prevent contact between the
concrete and/or wash water and storm water that will be discharged from the site or
in locations where waste concrete can be placed into forms to make riprap or other
useful concrete products. The cured residue from the concrete washout diked areas
shall be disposed in accordance with applicable state and federal regulations. The

New York State
E N V I R O N M E N T A L F A C I L I T I E S C O R P O R A T I O N
MATTHEW J. DRISCOLL, President and CEO
For Immediate Release: July 11, 2012
EFC Contact: Jon Sorensen | 518.402.6924 | 518.956.2297
New York State, Warren County Begin Work
on Porous Asphalt Roadway in Lake George
------------------------------------------------------------
Porous Pavement Will Reduce Pollution into Lake George
Construction has begun on a unique porous-pavement road system that will reduce
pollution into Lake George from vehicle traffic and road salt on a one-mile stretch of
Beach Road.
Beach Road will be the first major roadway in New York State to be covered with a
porous-pavement surface. When completed next year, the $7,692,000 project will create
the largest and longest stretch of porous pavement ever constructed in the Northeast
designed for heavy traffic and use.
To see how it works, click here.
Subsurface work will be completed this summer, along with a 100-foot test section of
porous pavement that will be used to help the engineers refine the Quality Control
procedures, perform lab tests, and enhance construction techniques to be used when
installing the porous asphalt roadway.
In addition to $7.7 million in federal, state and county highway aid, financing for the
engineering and design of this unique road surface is being supported by a Green
Innovation Grant from the New York State Environmental Facilities Corp. (EFC). The
Green Innovation Grant Program is a statewide competition, spurring the development
of new and sustainable ways to reduce water pollution by managing stormwater with
low-cost, eco-friendly designs such as porous pavement.
With funding from the Green Innovation Grant Program, engineers from the New
York State Department of Transportation, the Federal Highway Administration, the
Warren County Department of Public Works and the firm of Barton & Loguidice, P.C.,
have designed a road system and a surface-testing protocol that will greatly advance the
use of porous asphalt surfaces across the country.
The result will be amazing as water will seem to literally disappear from the surface
of Beach Road, said EFC President and CEO Matthew Driscoll. EFC is providing
another green grant to Lake George to construct another porous road surface as part of
the renovation of the former Gaslight Village amusement park.

When we build our roads and bridges we must do so as stewards of the environment,
said State Transportation Commissioner Joan M. McDonald, not only for the sake of
maintaining a safe and healthy environment but also to protect and enhance local
economies that depend on tourism dollars, as does Lake George, a favored destination
for tens of thousands of New Yorkers and non-New Yorkers alike who appreciate all of
the beauty and recreation Lake George has to offer.
Warren County values the protection of Lake George as both an environmental and
economic asset to the region, said Warren County Board of Supervisors Chairman Dan
Stec. Stormwater from Beach Road has long been a concern of ours and we are pleased
that weve been able to come up with an innovative project with the partnership of New
York State to address this source of pollution.
An additional $2 million will be spent by the Department of Environmental
Conservation next year to apply a porous surface to part of Beach Road that includes the
DECs Lake George Beach Day Use Area.
Using porous-pavement will help improve water quality in Lake George and protect
it from day-to-day, harmful run off, said DEC Commissioner Joe Martens. As an
important tourist and recreational area in the southeastern Adirondack State Park, the
health Lake George is vital to the regional economy.
The porous surface will eliminate the need for drainage structures in the roadway,
reduce the amount of salt (and other chlorides) required in winter time by up to 50%,
reduce road spray, improve traction. The pores in the asphalt matrix provide an
environment where petroleum and other automobile based contaminants will
biologically break down before entering the stone reservoir system below the pavement
or the original ground underneath, said Tom Baird P.E., Project Manager and Chief
Engineer, on the project for Barton & Loguidice.
Baird has spent much of the past two years studying the science of porous pavement,
developing specifications and creating a unique design for Beach Road that had to
account for its close proximity to Lake George, the existing high water table, and
varying lake elevations during significant storm events and cold temperatures.
Project Engineer with B&L, Dan Rourke. P.E., added, The new pavement system will
be able to store up to 5 of rain in a 24-hour period and also includes provisions to
protect the pavement and storage systems from even more extreme weather conditions
that can occur around Lake George.
This is one of the most important lake saving projects ever for Lake George, said
Walt Lender, executive director of the Lake George Association, The LGA recognizes
Warren County, New York State and the Federal Highway Administration for taking the
bold steps to move forward on this revolutionary project -- one we believe will get
national recognition and will set a precedent for many like it to follow in other lakeside
communities.
Beach Road is a four lane roadway that stretches for approximately 1 mile along the
southern shore of Lake George from Route 9 (Canada Street) to Route 9L in the Town
and Village of Lake George, Warren County NY. Work this summer will be confined to
portions of Beach Road farthest away from Route 9 in order to minimize any impact on
the tourism season.

DRAFT Memorandum
To: Distribution
Date: April 1, 2013
From: Nick Panayotou
Project No.: 165213
CC: Chris Hanzlik, Tom Holmes
Subject: DEP Meeting
Costco
Yorktown, NY
On Thursday, March 21, 2013, TRC met with DEP representatives to discuss their SEQR comment
letters dated 11/21/12 and 12/3/12, as well as to discuss modifications to the Site Plans which TRC is
proposing to help address DEP comments. It was explained that TRCs goal is to infiltrate the entire
water quality storm event (1-year storm) and to reduce impact on the Wetlands A buffer. The
following is a summary of the significant points of discussion:
1. Based upon the public comments received as part of the FEIS, TRC requested clarification
regarding which rainfall values should be utilized in the stormwater management design.
Essentially, TRC used the standard TP-40 rainfall values whereas some of the commentators
suggested using more recently developed NRCC rainfall values. DEP staff indicated that
based upon the current regulations, the following rainfall values should be used:
a. For the one-year storm, use a rainfall value of 3.0 inches.
b. For all other storms, use the TP-40 values.
DEP indicated that doing so would conform to current regulations in effect. Comparison of
TP-40 and NRCC rainfall values is shown on the attached Table No. 1.
2. Infiltration Facility - DEP staff indicated the following criteria should be used in the design of
the infiltration facility:
a. The facility should be sized based upon total 1-year storm volume without assuming
credit for exfiltration.
b. Care must be taken to avoid compacting soil within and around the bottom of the
infiltration facility during construction.
Memorandum/Project No. 165213
April 1, 2013
Page 2 of 6
c. The proposed retaining wall design shall not compromise the infiltration design. DEP
was concerned that the retaining wall drainage system could intercept and convey
infiltrated stormwater to the surface.
d. DEP indicated that the infiltration system must be designed to be an off-line practice
and shall not be used to provide stormwater attenuation.
TRC will review its design and will comply with DEPs criteria.
3. Pre-treatment TRC requested clarification regarding acceptable measures to be used for the
pre-treatment of stormwater in advance of the infiltration chamber. The following methods
were determined to be acceptable:
a. Given the high infiltration rate, a pre-treatment sediment chamber must be sized to
contain 100% of the design volume to be treated.
b. As an alternate, flow-based mechanical treatment devices can be utilized.
c. The SWPPP must address appropriate maintenance measures for the selected option.
4. Pollutant Loading DEP suggested the following pollutant loading criteria:
a. The pollutant loading must be carried forth in accordance with NYSDEC publication
entitled, Reducing the Impacts of Stormwater Runoff from New Development.
b. TRC should evaluate pollutant loading at several design points. TRC selected design
points are shown on the attached Exhibit.
c. TRC will also analyze pollutant loading on a global basis, calculating pre- and post-
development from the entire site.
d. It was noted that if TRC selected the high pollutant removal rates associated with a
particular practice, an adequate maintenance program to achieve those removal rates
must be demonstrated.
5. The DEP indicated that the application of stormwater credits to satisfy Runoff Reduction
Volume (RRv) cannot be used for developer-based improvements to State roadways. Thus,
TRCs proposal to provide on-site RRv to account for remote off-site requirements as part of
the Highway Improvement project is not acceptable. Thus, TRC will look at alternate
methods of providing RRv requirements for those remote areas.
6. The DEP indicated they would consider accepting the minimum RRv requirements applied to
each remote drainage area for the offsite improvements.
Memorandum/Project No. 165213
April 1, 2013
Page 3 of 6
7. TRCs proposal to incorporate a sand filter for WQ treatment of runoff from the fueling
station (hot spot) conforms to DEP requirements. TRC proposes to design a sand filter off-
line with bypass of higher storms to the storm drainage system.
8. Site Plan amendments will be employed to reduce impact on Wetlands A buffer.
9. It was agreed to use a worst-case condition assuming multiple family zoning to assess growth-
inducing impacts of properties along the route of the proposed off-site sewer. Although this
has been done for several parameters identified by the Town, the EIS discussion will be
expanded to address stormwater-related impacts.
10. Assuming infiltration is adopted for design of the full water quality storm, DEP agreed that
there would be no need to analyze thermal impacts.
11. TRC will contact the DOT to coordinate the Costco projects design with that of the DOTs
project to retrofit the existing pond located north of the Costco site.
12. The DEP requested that the FEIS contain a more detailed narrative covering project phasing.
The existing narrative will be expanded to demonstrate that compliance with the 5-acre
maximum disturbance requirement is feasible. In the final documents, including the final
SWPP and final Site Plans, more detailed supporting information shall be provided.
13. The DEP suggested using erosion control blankets to stabilize slopes greater than 3 horizontal
to 1 vertical.
14. TRC is preparing a proposal to determine if there is a benefit to develop a Town-Sponsored
Storm Water Management Facility just north of the site. If there proves to be a benefit, TRC
will prepare documents required to secure necessary approvals. The design and approval
process will be carried forth in sync with the approval of the on-site Proposal.
15. A follow-up meeting with DEP will be scheduled to continue review of the various items
noted herein.

PREFACE
Pursuant to Section 402 of the Clean Water Act (CWA), stormwater discharges from
certain construction activities are unlawful unless they are authorized by a National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit or by a state permit program. New
Yorks State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) is a NPDES-approved
program with permits issued in accordance with the Environmental Conservation Law (ECL).
This general permit (permit) is issued pursuant to Article 17, Titles 7, 8 and Article 70
of the ECL. An owner or operator may obtain coverage under this permit by submitting a Notice
of Intent ("NOI") to the Department. Copies of this permit and the NOI for New York are available
by calling (518) 402-8109 or at any New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
(the Department) regional office (see Appendix G).They are also available on the Departments
website at:
http://www.dec.ny.gov/
An owner or operator of a construction activity that is eligible for coverage under this
permit must obtain coverage prior to the commencement of construction activity. Activities that fit
the definition of construction activity, as defined under 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(x), (15)(i), and
(15)(ii), constitute construction of a point source and therefore, pursuant to Article 17-0505 of the
ECL, the owner or operator must have coverage under a SPDES permit prior to commencing
construction activity. They cannot wait until there is an actual discharge from the construction site
to obtain permit coverage.
*Note: The italicized words/phrases within this permit are defined in Appendix A.

provisions of this permit are met:
1. Construction activities involving soil disturbances of one (1) or more acres;
including disturbances of less than one acre that are part of a larger common
plan of development or sale that will ultimately disturb one or more acres of
land; excluding routine maintenance activity that is performed to maintain the
original line and grade, hydraulic capacity or original purpose of a facility;
2. Construction activities involving soil disturbances of less than one (1) acre
where the Department has determined that a SPDES permit is required for
stormwater discharges based on the potential for contribution to a violation of a
water quality standard or for significant contribution of pollutants to surface
waters of the State.
3. Construction activities located in the watershed(s) identified in Appendix D that
involve soil disturbances between five thousand (5000) square feet and one (1)
acre of land.
B. Maintaining Water Quality - It shall be a violation of this permit and the ECL for any
discharge to either cause or contribute to a violation of water quality standards as
contained in Parts 700 through 705 of Title 6 of the Official Compilation of Codes, Rules
and Regulations of the State of New York, such as:
1. There shall be no increase in turbidity that will cause a substantial visible
contrast to natural conditions;
2. There shall be no increase in suspended, colloidal or settleable solids that will
cause deposition or impair the waters for their best usages; and
3. There shall be no residue from oil and floating substances, nor visible oil film,
nor globules of grease.
C. Eligibility Under This General Permit
1. This permit may authorize all discharges of stormwater from construction
activity to surface waters of the State and groundwaters except for ineligible
discharges identified under subparagraph D. of this Part.
2. Except for non-stormwater discharges explicitly listed in the next paragraph,
this permit only authorizes stormwater discharges from construction activities.
