Assistant City Engineer City of Carmel WOOLPERT Department of Engineering One Civic Square Carmel, TN 46032 Woolpert 7635 Interactive Way RE: ITT Building Expansion Project Review #1 Suite 100 Dear Mr. Duncan: Indianapolis, IN 46278 -2727 317.518.3396 We are in receipt of the Engineering Department review letters for the above listed Office: 317.299.7500 project, dated 3/15/10 and 3/24/10. The following responses have been provided to address your review comments: Fax: 317.291.5805 www.woolpert.com Construction Drawing Review Comments: 36. These notes have been added to sheet C201 in the Site and Utility Notes. 37. This note is provided on sheet C300. 38. All current easements are shown on this plan set. 39. Comment rescinded by Engineering Department per 3/24/10 letter. 40. This note has been provided on sheet C201. 41. The swale along the south of the site contains a sub- surface drain. The detail on sheet C401 has been revised to specify double wall HI -Q pipe (with off -set perforations per John Thomas). 42. This development will not be platted. 43. Comment rescinded by Engineering Department per 3/24/10 letter. Additional Review Comments: 1. The location of the construction entrance was acceptable to John Thomas, given the low amount of runoff this swale receives and the inlet protection provided at the downstream inlet during construction. 2. Duke Realty has reviewed the plans and approved this earthwork to take place. 3. A note has been added to sheets C110 and C111 stating that construction traffic is required to enter Hamilton Crossing from the north entrance-off of Illinois Street. 4. The drainage summary has been revised to include both existing and proposed 10 and 100 -year release rates. The master plan does not give an allowable release rate, only an allowable Curve Number. 5. An exhibit is enclosed that shows the flood routing from the site to the off -site detention pond at the southwest end of Hamilton Crossing. Flood water will be contained along Hamilton Crossing Boulevard and not impact adjacent buildings. This exhibit will be added to the Drainage Report. 'these responses should address all of your comments. Please contact me daily further questions. Sincerely, WOOLPERT, INC.

Office: 317.299.7500 The following responses have been provided to address your review comments: Fax: 317.291.5805 Construction SWPPP Review Comments: www.woolpert.com 6b. These notes have been added to sheet C201 in the Site and Utility Notes. 8. The inlet protection for this inlet structure has been clarified on sheet C110. 8a. The tree protection fence has been shown on sheet C110 and the silt fence along the south property line has been revised accordingly. 9. Step 3 in the Construction Sequence has been revised accordingly. Post Construction SWPPP Review Comments: 1. A SWPPP and BM P Operation and Maintenance Manual has now been provided. 2d. A planting schedule for the rain garden has been provided on sheet C400. A reference to this schedule has been added to the legend on sheet CI 11. 2e. The underdrain detail, now provided on sheet C401, has been revised to specify double walled pipe with off -set perforations. C111 has also been revised to clarify this. We took into consideration your suggestion of outletting the roof drains further east and routing that water through the swale as a bioswale, however the required depth of the roof drains would push the swalc too deep in order for them to daylight into the swale and drain with sufficient slope west to the outlet. Other "green" BMP method were also previously considered, but due to the tight conditions behind the building expansion, providing the Aqua -Swirl just upstream of the Rain Garden was the best feasible solution, We also looked into your suggestion of providing poppys and cosmos in the rain garden in addition to the wet mesic prairie mix. The landscape architect has recommended installing potted perennials for initial aesthetics, rather than the poppys and cosmos due to the differences in maintenance requirements. We will review this with the owner and proceed if directed to do so. These responses should address all of your comments. Please contact me if any further questions.

Please let me know if you have any questions in regards to my comments and from your conversations with Scott. Below are comments for this project specifically addressing the area of landscaping. I have reviewed the drawings submitted for the March 17, 2010 Technical Advisory Committee and present the following comments: URBAN FORESTRY REVIEW COMMENTS 1) The Plant Schedule will need to have the quantity of each plant listed in a separate column. 2) The staking style on the evergreen trees is not advised. This `X' shape staking style tends to lead to trunk damage. As the tree moves side to side it rubs on the stake. I have attached the City of Carmel's standard plant material planting details for your use. Please illustrate how these comments will be addressed by letter or revised plan.

Also, I have emailed our attorney to see if you have to comply with the minimum building height requirement of 38 -ft and 3 occupiable floors, since this is a building addition. And, I urge you to look through the US 31 Overlay requirements to see if you might need any other variances.
