Storm Water Standard Questionnaire B. HMP Applicability Matrix C. Project Map with BMPs shown • INTRODUCTION • • The Stormwater Management Plan [SWMP] requirement is required for projects that are categorized as a Priority Development Project [PDP] pursuant to the City of Carlsbad Standard Urban Stormwater Management Plan [SUSMP] and Carlsbad's Local Coastal Program requirements. After completing the Storm Water Standards Questionnaire [SWSQ] this project is a PDP. The purpose of this SWMP is to address the water quality impacts from the proposed improvements for the proposed Bluewater Restaurant project. Best Management Practices [BMP's] will be utilized to provide a long term solution to water quality. This SWMP is also intended to ensure the effectiveness of the BMP's through proper maintenance that is based on long term fiscal planning. The SWMP is subject to revisions as needed by the engineer. 1.0 Project Description The proposed project is to redevelop an existing lot with a total gross acreage of .42 acres into a new restaurant with associated parking and landscaping. There are presently about 8 rental units on the site with an asphalt driveway and gravel parking area. The entire site would be cleared of the existing improvements and a new restaurant, driveway, parking spaces and landscaping constructed in its place. The proposed project would result in an increase of impervious area by more than 1 0% as compared to pre-development conditions. 1.1 Hydrologic Unit Contribution The Bluewater Restaurant Project is located in the Carlsbad Hydrologic Unit and more specifically in the El Saito Hydrolic area [unit 4.21 as designated in the San Diego Basin Plan]. The project area is characterized by an existing fully developed commercial, multifamily residential, timeshare/motel neighborhood. The proposed project has most of its drainage waters flowing to a combination of landscape areas and bioretention facilities. The drainage water is then collected by a small private drainage system (4" and 6" pipes) that discharge the filtered water to the city street (Carlsbad Boulevard). The proposed project will not alter drainage patterns on the site or off site. The storm water discharge points will not divert runoff from existing conditions. The reality is that any increase in impervious area results in an increase in runoff. Therefore, a low impact design of landscaping and an all paver driveway and parking lot have been introduced to assist in mitigation of minor flows . Page 1 • • • 1.2 Beneficial Uses of Coastal Waters The beneficial uses for the hydrologic unit are listed below. They have been extracted from the water quality control plan for the San Diego Basin. The only one they I have elaborated on that I feel is appropriate is the REC 1. RECI -Contact Recreation: Includes uses of water for recreation activities involving body contact with water, where ingestion of water is reasonbly possible. The uses include, but are not limited to, swimming, wading, water skiing, skin and SCUBA diving, surfing, white water activities, or fishing. Other possible benefits indicated in Table 2-3 of the basin plan are Non Contact Water Recreation, Wildlife Habitat, Preservation of Biological Habitats of Special Significance, and Rare-Threatened or Endangered Species of Marine Habitat. 1.2.1 Inland Surface Waters Not Applicable 1.2.2 Groundwater Not Applicable 2.0 CHARACTERIZATION OF PROJECT RUNOFF Per the Carlsbad Local Coastal Program, the Pacific Ocean is considered an Environmentally Sensitive Area [ESA]. This project is not within 200 feet of the Pacific Ocean but it does propose a restaurant. Therefore the project qualifies as a Priority Development Project and is subject to SUSMP treatment BMP standards. According to the California 2006 303d list published by the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board, the impaired water body nearest this project is the Pacific Ocean. It's only listed Pollutant Stressor is "Indicator Bacteria" which the proposed project should not contribute to . Page2 • 2.1 Expected discharges There is no sampling data available for the existing site condition. The following constituents are sometimes found on small restaurant developments such as this that could affect water quality. 1. Sediment discharge due to construction activities and post construction areas left bare. 2. Nutrients from fertilizers. 3. Trash and debris deposited in drain inlets. 4. Hydrocarbons from paved areas. 5. Pesticides from landscaping and home use. 2.2 Soil Characteristics The project area is within soil group A, which is a very good draining soil. 3.0 MITIGATION MEASURES TO PROTECT WATER QUALITY • To address water quality for the project, BMP's will be implemented during construction and post construction. • 3.1 Construction BMP's The construction BMP's that are anticipated to be utilized during construction are as follows: 1 . Silt fence 2. Street sweeping if needed. 3. Stockpile management 4. Solid waste management 5. Gravel bag berms 6. Concrete waste management 7. Construction entrance 3.2 Post Construction BMP's The project, in its effort to comply with LI.D. requirements, is designed to have Page 3 • • • all the parking lot drainage waters flow to a combination of landscape areas and bioretention basins. See the attachment for location of bioretention facilities. 3.2.1 Appropriate Applications and Siting Constraints This project is not large in size [.42 acres] and is challengingly narrow, but the design accommodates for almost all of the sheet flow run off from rain to go to the landscape areas. These landscaped areas will provide filtering of the water as well as some infiltration before they enter the private drainage system. The project does propose an exterior trash bin area. A roof will be provided over the top of it to prevent rain waters from entering the bins. As additional protection, the bins have a lid cover on them that are typically in the closed position. The landscape irrigation system will be plant sensitive as well as rain monitored. 4.0 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAM The maintenance of the landscaping and bioretention basins will be the responsibility of the Restaurant Owners. The maintenance anticipated is as follows: 1. Check the bioretention basins and landscaping for proper growth. 2. Remove any accumulation of debris, remove and replace dead plants, and check the irrigation system for adequate coverage as well as adjustment for seasonal watering durations and frequencies. The bioretention basins should be inspected monthly. Any maintenance as described above needs to be done at that time. Additional inspections should be made after any large rain event (.5" or greater). The owner may be required to execute a city standard Permanent BMP Maintenance Agreement that records against the property. This agreement outlines the current, prospective and future property owner's obligations to inspect and maintain treatment BMP's (bioretention basins) on this property to ensure their effectiveness at removing pollutants from this project.

To view the SUSMP, refer to the Engineering standards (Volume 4, Chapter 2) at www.carlsbadca.gov/standards. Initially this questionnaire must be completed by the applicant in advance of submitting for a development application (subdivision, discretionary permits and/or construction permits). The results of the questionnaire determine the level of storm water standards that must be applied to a proposed development or redevelopment project. Depending on the outcome, your project will either be subject to 'Standard Stormwater Requirements' or be subject to additional criteria called 'Priority Development Project Requirements'. Many aspects of project site design are dependent upon the storm water standards applied to a project. Your responses to the questionnaire represent an initial assessment of the proposed project conditions and impacts. City staff has responsibility for making the final assessment after submission of the development application. If staff determines that the questionnaire was incorrectly filled out and is subject to more stringent storm water standards than initially assessed by you, this will result in the return of the development application as incomplete. In this case, please make the changes to the questionnaire and resubmit to the City. If you are unsure about the meaning of a question or need help in determining how to respond to one or more of the questions, please seek assistance from Land Development Engineering staff . A separate completed and signed questionnaire must be submitted for each new development application submission. Only one completed and signed questionnaire is required when multiple development applications for the same project are submitted concurrently. In addition to this questionnaire, you must also complete, sign and submit a Project Threat Assessment Form with construction permits for the project. Please start by completing Section 1 and follow the instructions. When completed, sign the form at the end and submit this with your application to the city.
