1 Municipality of Anchorage, Alaska Parks & ecreation Department 632 W. 6 th Avenue, Suite 630 P.O. Box Anchorage, AK Tel UL MEMOANDUM Date: May 3, 2017 To: Cc: From: Parks & ecreation Commission Josh Durand, Parks Superintendent Tom Korosei, Park Planner PC Campbell Creek Park Alterations Local oad ehab. & Project: Drainage Improvements, PM&E Projects #14-28 & #14-37 POJECT OVEVIEW The Parks and ecreation Commission is requested to approve proposed installation of a storm water infiltration system and related equipment in part of the Campbell Creek Greenbelt located on the north side of Campbell Creek, at the intersection of Folker Street and E. 46 th Ave. The site is northwest of the central, active area of Campbell Creek Park. The project is part of storm water drainage improvements to an area adjacent to the park, an area that the Parks and ecreation Department understands has longstanding experience with flooding of neighborhood streets. The MOA Public Works Dept. has developed plans to address drainage deficiencies in the area in conjunction with certain roadway improvements. Earlier recommendations to direct the storm water to the Tudor oad drainage system were objected to by Alaska Dept. of Transportation and Public Facilities. As a result a system directing the water to nearby Campbell Creek was chosen. The infiltration system is expected to help protect the water quality of Campbell Creek and reduce erosion by intercepting storm water runoff rather than direct discharge to the creek, meeting qualification as low impact development. The affected park parcel is dedicated park land, and records indicate that the parcel may have been acquired in part with a grant from the Land and Water Conservation Fund of the National Park Service. Most of the installation in the park would be underground at a site where a tennis court was removed in 2011 and is now open turf. The main part of the system is a series of chambers to collect runoff and allow the water to percolate into the subgrade. At ground level would be three manholes and a driveway for maintenance of the facility. Parks and ecreation staff believes that the driveway surface should be a porous pavement system to allow turf to grow while supporting maintenance vehicles. A porous pavement system would minimize the visual impact and allow continued recreational use of the surface. Overflow from the infiltration system would flow through a culvert approx. 83 feet to Campbell Creek. Additional information about the project is attached.

2 PC PM&E oad & Drainage Improvements, Proj. Nos & May 3, 2017 Page 2 of 2 The project, in particular the infiltration system proposed for installation in the park, was presented to the Campbell Park Community Council at its meeting April 20, Attendees at that meeting expressed general support for the project and no objection to the proposed use of the park area. The project engineer indicates that landscaping and parking would be possible over the system, but not permanent structures or roadways. The Parks and ecreation Department staff believes that current recreational use of this area would not be unreasonably diminished, provided the proposed driveway and other above-ground components are designed to minimize visibility and protrusion and the area is adequately restored after construction. STAFF ECOMMENDATION The Parks and ecreation Department requests that the Parks and ecreation Commission approve the attached resolution regarding the proposed construction of storm water drainage facilities in a portion of the Campbell Creek Greenbelt generally as described. The Parks and ecreation Dept. expects to execute an intragovernmental use permit for the project to address general mitigation and compensation concerns. Cc: Eric Hohman, PTS, Inc.

Each chamber will be composed of at least 40% recycled material. The stone base that the chambers are placed on will not be compacted in order to avoid compaction of the stone-soil interface, which restricts soil infiltration. The chamber system will be designed without filter fabric under the chambers in order to avoid restriction of soil infiltration, which occurs from the normal clogging of the filter fabric from sediment and debris deposition. Use of filter fabric between the soil and stone backfill layer and lining the side walls of the excavated area will be required to prevent intrusion of soil or silt into the chambers and surrounding stone. Each chamber will be capable of supporting a minimum of 24,000 pounds [10,886kg] per square foot (i.e., three times the AASHTO H-20 Wheel Load ating). Each chamber will be capable of being installed with a minimum of 25 feet [7620mm] of cover above the crown of the chamber. Each chamber system will be capable of being installed in at least two layers, providing a minimum of 0.8 cubic feet of storage per square foot of surface area. Each chamber system will be capable of being installed with a minimum of six inches [150mm] of stone base. Each chamber will be 34.04" [864mm] high, 60" [1524mm] wide and 102.5" [2591mm] long. Lay-up length will be 8.1' [2464mm] (start and end unit) and 7.6' [2311mm] (middle unit). Each chamber will have 14 ribs of approximately 3.6" [91.4mm] in height, 3.8" [96.5mm] wide at the top and tapering to 4.4" [112mm] at the bottom. Spacing of the ribs at the bottom of the chamber will be approximately 4.9" [124mm] and approximately 3.2" [81.3mm] at the top. One smaller rib sized dimensionally to effectively nest under and interlock to connect units will be 2.9" [73.7mm] high, 3.3" [83.8] wide at the top of the rib, and 4.1" [104mm] wide at the base. Overall height to the inside rib will be 30.44" [864.62mm]. Overall height to the outside rib will be 34.04" [773.18mm]. Each chamber will have a defined top portal which is structurally enhanced to compensate for loss of structural integrity when apertures are cut open to receive pipe. Each such portal will be capable to receive up to a 12" [300mm] PVC pipe. Each chamber will have defined side portals on opposing sides which are structurally enhanced to compensate for loss of structural integrity when apertures are cut open to receive pipe. Invert height for a 10" [250mm] PVC pipe through a defined side portal will be 17.49" [444.25mm]. Invert height for an 8" [200mm] PVC pipe through a defined side portal will be 18.49" [469.65mm]. Each chamber will be capable to accept an 8" [200mm] or 10" [250mm] PVC feed pipe through a defined side portal. Each chamber will be capable to accept up to a 30" [750mm] OD pipe through its end wall. Each chamber will be capable of storing at least 9 cubic feet per lineal foot with 6" [150mm] or stone above and below the chamber. Each chamber system will be designed without utilizing a header pipe manifold system. Stone diameter will be 3/4" - 2" [20mm - 50mm].
