REMARKS:
Ken/Carol-
Please see revised documents. The outfall has been revised per BCSO/HCSO
meeting comments to route the outfall pipe within Austin Oaks however around the
Existing Dry Detention Facility discharging directly to Boone Creek downstream.
There will be no Copperleaf “onsite” pond/concentrated discharge into the existing
Austin Oaks Dry Detention facility.

Revised Primary Plat per TAC comments. The sanitary system has been adjusted
to remove gravity sewer service due to limitation of only serving several lots. The
system is now represented entirely as E-One low pressure common forcemain
grinder pump service.

RE: Copperleaf PUD Rezone
Docket No. 17110014 Z
Mr. Hall,
Please find enclosed 1 set of revised Primary Plat and Drainage Report for Copperleaf. The plans have
been revised per your comment letter dated December 19, 2017. I have addressed each of your items
individually with a numbering system consistent to your comment letter.
1. Per Section 102.05.ii.a of the manual, the Pre-Developed Drainage Report shall include a watershed
map including any off-site drainage areas that need to be accommodated, including the fully
developed right-of-way per the City of Carmel 20-year Thoroughfare Plan. Reviewing the existing
basin map in the report, it appears the area of basin PRE-SE is undersized, as a significant
portion of the southwest corner of the site discharges directly to Boone Creek. Please review and
revise.
Drainage Report revised. The PRE-SE basin was updated. The full 131st Street ROW was
added to the PRE-W basin.
2. Per Section 102.05.iii.c of the manual, the Post-Developed Drainage Report shall include detention
calculations.
a. Per Section 302.12 of the manual, design and construction of the stormwater facility shall
provide for the discharge of the stormwater runoff from off-site land areas as well as the
stormwater from the area being developed to an acceptable outlet as determined by the City
of Carmel having capacity to receive upstream (off-site) and on-site drainage. Per the
Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office, the dry basin in Austin Oaks is not an acceptable outlet to
receive on-site drainage. Approval of the outlet from this development will be required from
both the Boone County Surveyor’s Office, Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office, and the City of
Carmel.
Drainage Report and Primary Plat revised. The drainage outfall has been revised per a
meeting with Boone County Surveyor’s Office and Hamilton County Surveyors Office
to route the primary storm sewer outfall within the existing Austin Oaks Dry Detention
“Bank” to the existing Dry Detention Outlet and discharge directly to Boone Creek.
Thus Onsite drainage is now entirely routed directly to Boone Creek and not
discharged into the Austin Oaks Dry Detention basin. Austin Oaks Dry Detention
Basin will only receive water from Lake #2 spillway for storm events in excess of the
10-year event due to offsite runoff (which mimics the pre-development runoff routing).
b. It appears that the allowable release rate from Lake #1 is the combined allowable release
rates for the entire 22.1 Acre site. Per Section 302.03 of the manual, for sites where the pre-
developed area has more than one (1) outlet, the release rate should be computed based on
pre-developed discharge to each outlet point. The computed release rate for each outlet point
shall not be exceeded at the respective outlet point even if the post developed conditions
would involve a different arrangement of outlet points. The allowable release rate to the dry
basin in Austin Oaks should not exceed the rate computed based on pre-developed
discharge to the east line of Austin Oaks. This rate is dependent on comments #1 and #2.a
above.
Drainage Report revised. Per revisions to outfall based on comment 2a, both existing
basins are tributary to Boone Creek. The onsite release rate to Austin Oaks Dry
Detention basin is 0.00 cfs.
3. Per Section 102.05.iv of the manual, the summary report should provide the following:
a. A statement as to the flooding potential, if any, of the proposed subdivision.
See sheet C1.1, Drainage Summary lower right corner.
b. The expected impact of the proposed subdivision’s storm water runoff on any receiving stream or
downstream property.
See sheet C1.1, Drainage Summary lower right corner.
c. A general statement and supporting documentation demonstrating that detention of the fully
developed right-of-way per the City of Carmel 20-year Thoroughfare Plan has been
accommodated in the detention facility per Section 302 of the manual, and piping has been sized
to convey runoff from the right-of-way to interior ponds.
See sheet C1.1, Drainage Summary lower right corner. Statement added.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please feel free to contact me at your
convenience.

Brandon T. Burke, P.E.

RE: Copperleaf PUD Rezone
Docket No. 17110014 Z
Mr. Hoyes,
Please find enclosed 1 set of revised Primary Plat and Drainage Report for Copperleaf. The plans have
been revised per your comment letter dated December 13, 2017. I have addressed each of your items
individually with a numbering system consistent to your comment letter.
1. The proposed project falls in the incorporated area and MS4 jurisdiction of the City of Carmel.
Noted.
2. The proposed project DOES NOT fall in a Carmel Wellhead Protection Zone.
Noted.
3. The proposed project drains to Little Eagle Creek via Boone Creek in Boone County.
Noted.
4. The preliminary drainage calculations comply with the allowable release rates for this project.
5. The site’s on-site primary outlet will need to discharge to Boone Creek downstream of the Austin
Oaks outlet, and no through the Austin Oak dry detention basin, as required by Boone County
Surveyor’s Office. The emergency overflow and the off-site bypass can continue through the
Austin Oaks dry detention basin, as in the existing condition.
Primary Plat and Drainage Report revised per HCSO/BCSO meeting per this direction.
Revised documents are submitted to BCSO, Carmel, Crossroad Engineers as well.
6. The storm sewer system will be added to the Hamilton County Regulated Drains system.
Noted.
7. The Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office has no comments or concerns with the PUD or primary
plat.
Noted.
8. Please submit construction plans and drainage calculations for the project when they become
available.
Noted.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please feel free to contact me at your
convenience.
