My comments are as follows: 1. Please change the species of crabapple (Melus) to a native tall growing shade tree such as Bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa) or swamp white oak (Quercus bicofor) and place them around the foot of the slope rather than across the top of the mound (same number of trees). 2. The native grass mix should be specified, and planted according to specific recommendations for that seed mix. If a native prairie grass mix is chosen, then it would lower maintenance costs because of reduced mowing. It would also provide far better storm water infiltration.

Keyzers@jacobs.com Subject: Clarian North Grading Revision Angie: Attached are the sketches showing the proposed changes for the area between ambulatory road and Meridian ROW that we discussed earlier this morning. Currently the overflow water is pooling in the right of way area creating a swamp like condition. The intent of the revised grading is to create a rip rap swale to channel the lake overflow water into the meridian inlet structure eliminating the standingwater in- the area, and to create a berm similar to the berms on other properties along meridian. Please advise if we need to submit these drawings for technical review.

IN 460240 VIA FACSIMILE: 569-4800 ~ NtCllfl[lJ OCr 1 J 2005 /JOes Re: Clarian North Hospital RevisioBs Dear Mr. Kilmer: We have reviewed the construction plans submitted to the Hamilton County Surveyor's Office on October 6, 200S(or this project and have the following <:omments: . 1. The proposed project falls in the incorporated area of the City of Cannel. 2. The proposed projeetDOES NOT fall in $ Carmel Wellhead Protection Zone, 3. The proposed project falls in the W.R. Fertig Regulated Drain Watershed. _ 4. The swale area between the pond outlet and the U.S. 31 culvert is a Hamilton COWlty Regulated Drain. Approval will need to be granted by Hamilton County Surveyor's Office prior to any' work commencing within the Regulated Drain Easement. 5. HCSO will require an approved permit fromlNDOT,for work in the Right of Way, be provided to us before we will approve any work on this regulated drain. 6. HCSO will not approve the design as presented because it moves the channel outside of the ,granted regulated drain easement, The channel must be realigned back to the center oCthe easement. If this channellooation is preferred. it will require a Regulated Drain Reconstruction and an additional grant of easement. 18/13/2005 16:28 3177769628 U HAMILTON CO SURVEYOR U PAGE 02/02 .. 7. The HCSO has concerns the proposed "rip rap cobble" may be sized too small and it could move under heavy velocities. If this rip rap moves, it will end up in the culvert, which oould:further back up the water of the hospital site. The HCSO typically required rip rap sized in the 7" to 9.' range, If a non rip rap alternative 'WQl,Ild be iX)nsidered~ I would suggest using North Amerioan Green's C3S0 - Pe:tmanent TurfRejnforcing Mat or similar. Thi5 would provide the needed erosion and stabilization protectfon, while allowing the grass to fill in and hide the channel. The concrete swaIe 'Would still be ne.eded to move the water on the flatter slope but ifit was llsed in conjWlction with the C-350, the overall appearance ma.y be :more appealing. 8. It appears there is some discrepancy in the details on sheet L3.01. DetailS shows. 6" of rip-rap ove.r the conerete swale. Details 4 and 6 show the invert: of the concrete. swale matching the invert of the pipe. It could be assumed that the rip- rap is 6" above the invert of the pipe, which we will not approve. Please modify which ever detail is incorrect. 9. No landscape planting will be permitted Dr allowed within the existing regulated drainage easements pCI' Ind.iana Code 36-9-27-33(d). Tbe proposed landscape plans DO NOT :aneet these reqnirements. 10. Please note that tUrther comments maybe nECessary at a later date. ShouLd you have any questions. I can be reached at 317.776-8495.
