Project Narrative
Carmel Clay Parks and Recreation is proposing to partially re-develop River Heritage
Park, which sits on a portion of a 40-acre park located in the City of Carmel, IN. The
project consists of demolition of several concrete walks and an existing playground. The
proposed elements include a permeable playground surface, permeable trail surface,
raised boardwalk sections, several concrete walks, a shelter roof replacement, four fabric
shade shelters, and site furnishings. Two parking spaces will be paved to improve ADA
accessibility. Miscellaneous seeding and tree mitigation is also proposed.
Flood Zone:
The site does lie in a Special Flood Hazard Area as Established by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency - National Flood Insurance Program, when plotted by
scale on Flood Insurance Rate Map #18057C0233G, Dated November 19, 2014.

Best Management Practices (BMP):
Best Management Practices, refer to structural or non-structural measures designed for
the benefit of water quality and quantity.
Urban stormwater runoff contains many types and forms of pollutants. When compared
to stormwater run-off from pre-developed conditions, high concentrations and some
contaminants that are not naturally present in surface runoff from undeveloped local
lands are found. Runoff from undeveloped watersheds contains metals, nutrients,
sediment particles, oxygen-demanding compounds, and other constituents. Once
developed, constituent loads increase because surface runoff volumes increase and the
sources of many of these pollutants also increase. Supplemental applications of
compounds, such as fertilizers, also tend to increase the availability of some pollutants to
stormwater runoff.
Runoff water quality in urban areas can be extremely detrimental to local habitat. Paved
surfaces and standing water bodies for stormwater management control elevate the
temperature of water entering streams. Chemicals in standing water and ponds are
oxidized, resulting in depressed levels of dissolved oxygen. Increased runoff volumes
and rates create scour and deposition damage to instream habitat. Activities in urbanized
areas, such as vehicular traffic, deposit pollutants such as heavy metals and oil & grease
on paved surfaces where they easily wash off into the streams.
BMP Owner:
The owner of the BMP, typically the property owner. The BMP owner may also be the
lessee of the property in the case of long-term leases of commercial and industrial zoned
properties. The lessee is considered the bmp owner only if the lease specifically states
that construction by the lessee must meet applicable local codes and regulations.
Softline FlexiStep Pathway System:
Softline FlexiStep Pathway system is a single layer, resilient, flexible surface system that
is mixed and laid on site to form a resilient seamless surface. The surface system is
comprised of a single layer consisting of recycled tire crumb with polyurethane binder
throughout the entire depth of surfacing. Softline FlexiStep Pathway system is a low
maintenance surface. Keeping the surface free from foreign objects such as stones, dirt,
stones, leaves, excrement/urine, chewing gum, liquids such as gasoline and oils.
Exposure to foreign matter can cause damage effecting the longevity of the surface life. It
is recommended that regular, periodic removal of loose debris is performed by using a
sweeper (brush), blower or vacuum to prevent forcing particles into the porous surface.
Native Plantings:
Native plants are defined as species which are present in our natural ecosystems in the
absence of human interference. Native plants were not brought here as ornamentals, nor
did we accidentally import them. They were here long before us. Native plant species are
vital to our ecosystems because they have developed important, often crucial,
relationships with our wildlife. Native plants support our dwindling pollinators, provide
host opportunities for insects who have lost their natural habitats, and are beautiful
flowers and grasses you can be proud to have on your property. They require no fertilizer,
no pesticides, and less water than non-native species, all while attracting and supporting
Indiana’s wildlife.
Stormwater Infrastructure:
Storm water infrastructure and structures refers to structural or non-structural measures
designed for the benefit of storm water conveyance. Storm water is the rainfall/ snowmelt
that flows over our yards, streets, parking lots, and buildings and either enters the storm
drain system or runs directly into a lake or stream.
Owners of storm water infrastructure and structures are typically the property owner.
The storm water infrastructure owner may also be the lessee of the property in the case of
long-term leases of commercial and industrial zoned properties. The lessee is considered
the owner only if the lease specifically states that construction by the lessee must meet
applicable local codes and regulations.
Catch basins:
Catch basin/inlet cleaning and repair has traditionally been performed to respond to
localized flooding problems in streets. Catch basins are inlets at the curb with a small trap
(usually six inches to one foot deep) below the sewer pipe. These devices help to clean
storm water because particles in street runoff settle into the trap before the water enters
the storm sewers. Catch basins require regular cleaning of the sediment trap to be. The
inlets do not trap sediments and don’t need cleaning unless they are plugged. Cleaning
for either catch basins or inlets can be done by hand (e.g., with a clamshell or shovel) or
with a vacuum truck.
Conveyance Storm Pipes:
A good rule of thumb is to conduct inspection of storm drain inlets and other drainage
facilities at least once a year, prior to the beginning of the rainy season. Complete
inspections early enough so that repairs can be made during dry weather. Catch
basins/inlets should be inspected at least once every six months. Storm Pipes and culverts
should be inspected every three to five years, or in response to a problem. Most agencies
inspect their sewer pipes six inches or larger with a TV camera. All other parts of the
system are inspected visually.
Look for excessive silt build-up, erosion, unusual algal growth, cracked or collapsed
pipes, misaligned joints, and other signs of problems such as a sheen on the water
surface, discolored water, or an unpleasant odor. Check with product manufacturers or
storm water handbooks for advice on what to look for when inspecting more
sophisticated treatment devices such as flow splitters and diverters. When a problem is
noted, take steps to correct the problem, or route this information immediately to the
appropriate individual(s) in your organization who can respond. If needed, develop a
good response plan to ensure quick follow-up in the future.
Inspections
Routine inspections are the responsibility of the BMP owner. Maintenance is also the
responsibility of the owner. The BMP owner shall be financially responsible for any
maintenance or repairs required by the City or its representatives during the City’s
inspections. The approval maintenance plan and inspection forms provided with this
manual should be used as guidance for performing maintenance activities. Completed
inspection forms must be maintained by the BMP owner and produced upon request by
the City. The City must be notified of any changes in BMP ownership, major repairs or
BMP failure in writing within 30 days. The letter should be addressed to:
Stormwater BMP Modifications
Department of Engineering
City of Carmel
One Civic Square
Carmel, IN 46032
The City and/or its representatives have the right to enter the property to inspect BMPs.
In the event that the City finds a BMP in need of maintenance or repair, the City will
notify the BMP owner of the necessary maintenance or repairs and give the landowner a
timeframe for completing the maintenance or repairs. If the maintenance or repairs are
not completed within the designated timeframe, the City shall perform the maintenance
or repairs and bill the landowner for the actual costs for the work.
Inspection & Maintenance Activities
Refer to the checklist provided with this manual for operation, maintenance and
inspection of BMP and storm water infrastructure. The checklist is for the use of the
BMP owner in performing routine inspections. The City will perform annual inspections
of BMPs, using similar checklist. The BMP owner must maintain and update the BMP
operations and maintenance plan. At a minimum, the operations and maintenance plan
must include, but is not limited to:
1. Visual inspect and removal of debris from inlet, outlet, and sump structures
2. Removal of woody vegetation from the embankments
BMP owners must routinely inspect BMPs to verify that all BMP components are
functioning as designed and are not in danger of failing. All BMPs need maintenance to
function as water quality and quantity enhancements. Maintenance can range from
dredging sediment out of the treatment area to mowing grass.
The BMP owner agrees to the maintenance and inspection programs attached with this
manual. Inspections must be documented on the inspection forms included in this
Operation and Maintenance Manual.
A self-monitoring program by the project site owner is required during construction and
during a maintenance schedule of any project described. A trained individual employed
or retained by the project site owner shall prepare and maintain a written evaluation of
the project site by the end of the next business day following each measurable Inspection.
Inspection during construction should be after a storm event and at a minimum, one (1)
time a week.
Inspection during the maintenance schedule must routinely inspect all storm water
infrastructure to verify that all components are functioning as designed and are not in
danger of failing. They should be inspected a minimum of an annual basis or upon
observed failure.

SOFTLINE SOLUTIONS FLEXISTEP PATHWAY SURFACE MAINTENANCE DETAIL
Product:
FlexiStep Surface System
Description:
Softline FlexiStep Pathway system is a single layer, resilient, flexible surface system that is mixed
and laid on site to form a resilient seamless surface. The surface system is comprised of a single
layer consisting of recycled tire crumb with polyurethane binder throughout the entire depth of
surfacing.
Maintenance Details:
Softline FlexiStep Pathway system is a low maintenance surface. Keeping the surface free from
foreign objects such as stones, dirt, stones, leaves, excrement/urine, chewing gum, liquids such
as gasoline and oils. Exposure to foreign matter can cause damage effecting the longevity of the
surface life. It is recommended that regular, periodic removal of loose debris is performed by
using a sweeper (brush), blower or vacuum to prevent forcing particles into the porous surface.
Maintenance Tips for Common Pathway Cleaning:
Gasoline: Wash area with a mild detergent and water. Soak up the deposits with disposable rags.
Apply two rinse applications with water and allow to dry.
Moss/Algae/Mildew/Mold: Saturate area with hydrogen peroxide and allow to soak for 5
minutes. Follow with saturating the area with vinegar and allow to soak for 5 minutes. Soak up
area with disposable rags. Apply two rinse applications with water and allow to dry.
Chewing Gum: Apply dry ice to freeze the gum and chip it from the surface to remove.
Soda/Juice: Spray surface with Formula407 and work into the surface with a disposable rag. Soak
up the residue and apply a second application of a mild liquid detergent. Apply two rinse
applications and allow to dry.
Grass Stains: Apply vinegar and water spray (50:50 dilution) to area and work into the surface
with a disposable rag. Soak up the residue and apply second application (if required). Apply two
rinse applications and allow to dry.
Excrement/Vomit/Urine: Wear necessary Personal Protective Equipment prior to starting the
cleaning process. Remove any loose excrement. Scrub area with Borax, TSP or STPP solution.
Soak up residue with disposable rags. Spray surface area with hydrogen peroxide and let stand
for at least 3 minutes, apply a second application of vinegar and let stand for 2 minutes. Soak up
the residue with clean disposable rags. Apply 2 rinse applications and allow to dry.

Snow/Ice/Sleet: Use of sodium and calcium chloride salts for ice control is acceptable. The
surface may be cleared by a pedestrian machine with power brush or rubber lined snow blade
(set at ¼-½” above the surface). Attempting to ‘scrape’ the surface may cause damage (skid steer
or heavy equipment use on Softline FlexiStep surfaces is too heavy and the rubber tire traction
against the surface may cause damage).
Salt Stains: Use trisodium phosphate liquid per directions. Allow surface to dry and brush off the
buildup with a soft nylon brush. Complete every 3 months or as needed to prevent large buildup.
Recommended Maintenance Schedule:
Bi-Weekly: Perform removal of loose debris using a sweeper (brush), blower or
vacuum. It is recommended to increase this maintenance per the City’s
guidelines for pathway visitors. In the case of an event bringing increased
traffic, increase maintenance accordingly.
Quarterly (Winter): Complete salt stain removal process per recommendations, if required.
Annual Inspections: Arrange annual inspections with Softline Solutions.
Bi-Annual Application
(OPTIONAL): Arrange varnish seal application with Softline Solutions.

Wetland and Prairie Grass Maintenance Plan
Short –term: Year 1
1. The wetlands and prairie grass (native plantings) should be monitored weekly for the first
three months, and additional watering may be required to ensure the wetland plantings receive at
least 1 inch of rainfall or watering. No additional watering is necessary if the soil is wet at the
surface.
2. Monitor wetlands and prairie grass (native plantings) for growth of species not in the planting
plan (invasive species). Eliminate invasive plants at the soonest possible time. Hand weeding and
pruning is the preferred method for removing invasive plants. Spot applications of appropriate
herbicides may also be utilized. Determination of herbicide use and application should only be
completed by certified professional applicators. All manufacturers’ recommendations must be
followed.
3. Assure that wetlands and prairie grass (native plantings) or pond hydrology is maintained. If it
is not possible to maintain the hydrology of the planned wetlands and prairie grass watering the
plants may be necessary, or the re-establishment of plants may be necessary when the hydrology
is restored.
4. Mowing no shorter than 8” should be completed prior to the maturation of weed seed,
typically in late spring, mid-summer, and early fall. Do not mow in wet or muddy locations.
5. Remove sediment that has filled the sediment forebay or is inhibiting plant growth. Some
plant and/or mulch maintenance will likely be necessary with sediment removal.
6. Complete the first annual inspection of wetlands and prairie grass condition during the fall to
assess vegetation establishment. Replace dead plants if necessary.
Mid- and Long-Term: Year 2 and Beyond
During the second and succeeding years, more of the planned plant species will be more
noticeable and vigorous in their growth. Monitoring of the plantings during this period should be
twice per year at a minimum.
1. If dead vegetation accumulates and causes ponding in new areas, removal of the dead material
and any sediment may be necessary. During this time, planting new vegetation may be
necessary.
2. Monitor wetlands and prairie grass (native plantings) for growth of invasive species. Eliminate
invasive plants at the soonest possible time.

WOOD FIBER HYDROMULCHER: IF APPROVED BY OWNER, WOOD FIBER HYDROMULCH
MAY BE APPLIED. APPLY WOOD FIBER AT AT RATE OF 1 TON/ACRE. APPLY WITH A
HYDROMULCHER WITH TACKING AGENT USED ACCORDING TO MANUFACTURER'S
RECOMMENDATIONS.
MAINTENANCE
ALL SEEDED LAWNS SHALL BE MAINTAINED FOR 60 DAYS FOLLOWING FINAL
INSPECTION BY LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT AFTER WRITTEN REQUEST FROM THE
CONTRACTOR. MAINTENANCE TO INCLUDE WATERING, WEEDING, CULTIVATING,
MULCHING, MOWING AND ALL OTHER NECESSARY OPERATIONS REQUIRED FOR PROPER
ESTABLISHMENT OF LAWNS.

1. AN OAT OR WHEAT COMPANION OR NURSE CROP MAY BE USED WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE PERMANENT SEEDING MIXTURES, AT
THE FOLLOWING RATES:
(A) SPRING OATS - ONE-FOURTH TO THREE-FOURTHS BUSHEL PER ACRE
(B) WHEAT - NO MORE THAN ONE-HALF BUSHEL PER ACRE
2. A HIGH POTENTIAL FOR FERTILIZER, SEED, AND MULCH TO WASH EXISTS ON STEEP BANKS, CUTS, AND IN CHANNELS AND AREAS
OF CONCENTRATED
INSTALLATION
1. GRADE THE SITE TO ACHIEVE POSITIVE DRAINAGE.
2. ADD TOPSOIL OR COMPOST MULCH TO ACHIEVE NEEDED DEPTH FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF VEGETATION. (COMPOST MATERIAL MAY
BE ADDED TO IMPROVE SOIL MOISTURE HOLDING CAPACITY, SOIL FRIABILITY, AND NUTRIENT AVAILABILITY.)
SEEDBED PREPARATION
1. TEST SOIL TO DETERMINE PH AND NUTRIENT LEVELS.
2. APPLY SOIL AMENDMENTS AS RECOMMENDED BY THE SOIL TEST AND WORK INTO THE UPPER TWO TO FOUR INCHES OF SOIL. IF
TESTING IS NOT DONE, APPLY 400 TO 600 POUNDS PER ACRE OF 12-12-12 ANALYSIS FERTILIZER, OR EQUIVALENT.
3. TILL THE SOIL TO OBTAIN A UNIFORM SEEDBED. USE A DISK OR RAKE, OPERATED ACROSS THE SLOPE, TO WORK THE SOIL
AMENDMENTS INTO THE UPPER TWO TO FOUR INCHES OF THE SOIL.
SEEDING
OPTIMUM SEEDING DATES ARE MARCH 1 TO MAY 10 AND AUGUST 10 TO SEPTEMBER 30.PERMANENT SEEDING DONE BETWEEN MAY
10 AND AUGUST 10 MAY NEED TO BE IRRIGATED. SEEDING OUTSIDE OR BEYOND OPTIMUM SEEDING DATES IS STILL POSSIBLE WITH
THE UNDERSTANDING THAT RESEEDING OR OVERSEEDING MAY BE REQUIRED IF ADEQUATE SURFACE COVER IS NOT ACHIEVED.
RESEEDING OR OVERSEEDING CAN BE EASILY ACCOMPLISHED IF THE SOIL SURFACE REMAINS WELL PROTECTED WITH MULCH.
1. SELECT A SEEDING MIXTURE AND RATE FROM TABLE 1. SELECT SEED MIXTURE BASED ON SITE CONDITIONS, SOIL PH, INTENDED
LAND USE, AND EXPECTED LEVEL OF MAINTENANCE.
2. APPLY SEED UNIFORMLY WITH A DRILL OR CULTIPACKER SEEDER OR BY BROADCASTING. PLANT OR COVER THE SEED TO A DEPTH
OF ONE-FOURTH TO ONE-HALF INCH. IF DRILLING OR BROADCASTING THE SEED, ENSURE GOOD SEED-TO-SOIL CONTACT BY FIRMING
THE SEEDBED WITH A ROLLER OR CULTIPACKER AFTER COMPLETING SEEDING OPERATIONS. (IF SEEDING IS DONE WITH A
HYDROSEEDER, FERTILIZER AND MULCH CAN BE APPLIED WITH THE SEED IN A SLURRY MIXTURE.)
3. MULCH ALL SEEDED AREAS AND USE APPROPRIATE METHODS TO ANCHOR THE MULCH IN PLACE. CONSIDER USING EROSION
CONTROL BLANKETS ON SLOPING AREAS AND CONVEYANCE CHANNELS
MAINTENANCE
1. INSPECT WITHIN 24 HOURS OF EACH RAIN EVENT AND AT LEAST ONCE EVERY SEVEN CALENDAR DAYS UNTIL THE VEGETATION IS
SUCCESSFULLY ESTABLISHED.
2. CHARACTERISTICS OF A SUCCESSFUL STAND INCLUDE VIGOROUS DARK GREEN OR BLUISHGREEN SEEDLINGS WITH A UNIFORM
VEGETATIVE COVER DENSITY OF 90 PERCENT OR MORE.
3. CHECK FOR EROSION OR MOVEMENT OF MULCH.
4. REPAIR DAMAGED, BARE, GULLIED, OR SPARSELY VEGETATED AREAS AND THEN FERTILIZE, RESEED, AND APPLY AND ANCHOR
MULCH.
5. IF PLANT COVER IS SPARSE OR PATCHY, EVALUATE THE PLANT MATERIALS CHOSEN, SOIL FERTILITY, MOISTURE CONDITION, AND
MULCH APPLICATION; REPAIR AFFECTED AREAS EITHER BY OVERSEEDING OR PREPARING A NEW SEEDBED AND RESEEDING. APPLY
AND ANCHOR MULCH ON THE NEWLY SEEDED AREAS.
6. IF VEGETATION FAILS TO GROW, CONSIDER SOIL TESTING TO DETERMINE SOIL PH OR NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY PROBLEMS.
(CONTACT YOUR SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT OR COOPERATIVE EXTENSION OFFICE FOR ASSISTANCE.)
7. IF ADDITIONAL FERTILIZATION IS NEEDED TO GET A SATISFACTORY STAND, DO SO ACCORDING TO SOIL TEST
RECOMMENDATIONS.
8. ADD FERTILIZER THE FOLLOWING GROWING SEASON. FERTILIZE ACCORDING TO SOIL TEST
RECOMMENDATIONS.
9. FERTILIZE TURF AREAS ANNUALLY. APPLY FERTILIZER IN A SPLIT APPLICATION. FOR COOL-SEASON GRASSES, APPLY ONE-HALF
OF THE FERTILIZER IN LATE SPRING AND ONE HALF IN EARLY FALL. FOR WARM-SEASON GRASSES, APPLY ONE-THIRD IN EARLY
SPRING, ONE-THIRD IN LATE SPRING, AND THE REMAINING ONE-THIRD IN MIDDLE SUMMER.
TABLE 1. PERMANENT SEEDING RECOMMENDATIONS
THIS TABLE PROVIDES SEVERAL SEED MIXTURE OPTIONS. ADDITIONAL SEED MIXTURES ARE AVAILABLE COMMERCIALLY. WHEN
SELECTING A MIXTURE, CONSIDER INTENDED LAND USE AND SITE CONDITIONS, INCLUDING SOIL PROPERTIES (E.G., SOIL PH AND
DRAINAGE), SLOPE ASPECT, AND THE TOLERANCE OF EACH SPECIES TO SHADE AND DROUGHT.
