I. Property Description
The Elder Property is a 15 acre parcel located approximately 4 miles south and east of the City
of Rifle within Garfield County. More specifically the Elder Property is located in Lot 1
Section 19, Township 6 South, Range 92 West, of the 6th Principal Meridian. A Vicinity Map
has been included as Sheet 1.
II. Hydrology
The hydrologic methods for this study are outlined in the Soil Conservation Service (SCS)
publication "Procedures for Determining Peak Flows in Colorado" (1980) and the computer
program AutoCAD Hydrology TR -55 Tabular Method. The development is located below an
elevation of 8,000 ft, therefore, peak flows in this area will be rainfall derived.
The soil types within the area of study are Torriorthents-Rocks and Potts loam (Sheet 2) as
designated by the United States Department of Agriculture Soil Conservation. A brief
description of these soils has been included on the soils map (11"x17") and is included in the
appendix.
The rainfall amounts were obtained using the Precipitation — Frequency Atlas of the Western
United States published By the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Using this atlas the precipitation corresponding to the 2 -yr, 24 hr storm event is 1.2 inches; the
25 -yr, 24 -hr storm event is 2.2 inches; and the 100 -yr, 24 -hr storm event produces 2.6 inches
of precipitation.
III. Existing Conditions
The majority of the Elder Residence property currently consists of sagebrush and grass in fair
to poor condition. A combined curve number, CN, of67 was used for the existing conditions
on this site. The main portion of the EX -1 basin is at approximately 2 % slope. The existing
drainage basins have been illustrated on the Existing Drainage Conditions map included at the
end of this report (24" x 36").
The existing site is split by a ridgeline that runs from east to west across the property. The
majority of runoff from both sides of the ridgeline sheet flow away from the site and are
collected in two separate swales that convey flows toward the east to a large gulley which
ultimately outfalls to Mamm Creek. A relatively small area in the northwest portion of the site
drains west to the adjacent lot. The site was treated as a single drainage basin because the site
generated runoff is collected in a common swale. Runoff for the site is tabulated in Table 1
and Table 2 below. Complete drainage calculations are included in Appendix A.

IV. Proposed Conditions
The proposed development will include a residential building, an office building, warehouse,
truck wash steel barn, gravel surfaces, and future truck parking. The proposed truck parking
located on the north side of the site has very similar drainage characteristics as existing
conditions. The site will be regraded; however, drainage patterns will not change from historic
locations. The drainage basins under the proposed conditions are similar to the existing
basins.
The majority of improvements will occur on the southern portion of the site. Stormwater
runoff will be routed around the proposed structures via earthen swales. Basin characteristics
and runoff for the proposed development are tabulated in Table 3 and Table 4 below.
Complete drainage calculations are included in Appendix A.
The northwest portion of the site that drains west to the adjacent lot is not affected by any
proposed construction.
The grading and addition of the proposed structures will cause a minor increase in the amount
of runoff with respect to existing conditions, and the proposed detention pond will detain this
increase and release it in an historic condition.

V. Detention Pond
A proposed detention pond will be constructed on the southem portion of the site. The pond
and outlet control structure was designed to release at the historic 25 -year and 100 -year
discharge rates for the entire site. The outlet control structure consists of a stand pipe with
Page 4
multiple perforations designed to release at the historic 25 -year discharge rate. There is an
orifice plate on top of the standpipe sized to release at the historic 100 -year discharge rate.
The detention pond 25 -year storage volume is 6,425 cubic feet and the 100 -year storage
volume is 8,877 cubic feet. Calculations for the proposed pond are included in the appendix of
this report.
VI. Results and Recommendations
This proposed development has a net increase in runoff, due to the increase in total impervious
area. Table 2 indicates the runoff volume associated with the existing basin. Table 4 indicates
the excess runoff volume associated with the proposed basin. As indicated in the tables, the
100 year peak flow under the existing conditions is 2.41 cubic feet per second and the total
post development 100 year peak flow is 4.82 cubic feet per second. This is a total increase of
2.41 cubic feet per second which will be attenuated to historic release rates.
VII. Design Features
Site grading will include the construction of drainage swales as needed to direct runoff towards
the detention pond. The geotechnical engineer will be responsible for any foundation drain
system that will be required and any subsequent dry well needed for these drain systems.
VIII. Summary
The proposed development at the Elder Property is minor with regard to the drainage impacts.
The impact of the development increases the amount of runoff volume and peak discharge
generated from the site. The increase in discharge will be contained by the proposed detention
pond. The change in flow characteristics is minor and will not adversely affect any
downstream landowner or structures. Water quality issues are of little concern as the majority
of the runoff within the improved areas is being routed to the detention pond. Those areas that
will directly discharge offsite are unimproved.

55—Potts loam, 3 to 6 percent slopes. This deep,
well drained, moderately sloping soil is on mesas, bench-
es, and sides of valleys. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to
7,000 feet. This soil formed in alluvium derived from
sandstone, shale, or basalt. The average annual precipi-
tation is about 14 inches, the average annual air tem-
perature is about 46 degrees F, and the average frost -
free period is about 120 days.
Typically, the surface layer is brown loam about 4
inches thick. The subsoil is reddish brown clay loam
about 24 inches thick. The substratum is pinkish white
loam to a depth of 60 inches.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Olney, Kim, and Ildefonso soils that have slopes of 3 to
6 percent. These areas make up 10 to 15 percent of the
map unit.
Permeability is moderate, and available water capacity
is high. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more.
Surface runoff is slow, and the erosion hazard is moder-
ate.
This soil is used mainly for irrigated crops and hay and
for dryland farming (fig. 10). Alfalfa, small grains, and
grass -legume hay are grown. Small areas are used for
grazing.
These soils are usually irrigated by flooding. Drop
structures ,in irrigation ditches, grassed waterways, and
minimum tillage prevent serious erosion. Irrigation water
should be carefully managed to avoid piping and erosion.
Cover crops or stubble mulching also help to limit ero-
sion in dryfarmed areas.
The native vegetation on this soil is mainly wheat -
grass, needleandthread, and sagebrush.
When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrubs
increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira-
ble weeds and annual plants are numerous. Properly
managing grazing maintains and improves range condi-
tion. Reducing brush improves the range. Seeding im-
proves range in poor condition. Crested wheatgrass,
western wheatgrass, and Russian wildrye are suitable for
seeding. Preparing a seedbed and drilling the seed are
good practices.
Pheasant, mourning dove, cottontail rabbit, some mule
deer, and squirrel find habitat on this soil.
Community development and recreation are limited by
low strength and the shrink -swell potential. Dwellings
and roads can be designed to overcome these limita-
tions. Community sewage systems will be needed if the
population density increases.
This soil is in capability subclasses Ille, irrigated, and
IVe, nonirrigated.
56—Potts loam, 6 to 12 percent slopes. This deep,
well drained, moderately sloping to rolling soil is on
mesas, benches, and sides of valleys. Elevation ranges
from 5,000 to 7,000 feet. This soil formed in alluvium
derived from sandstone, shale, or basalt. The average
annual precipitation is about 14 inches, the average

Permeability is moderate, and available water capacity
is high. Effective rooting depth is 60 inches or more.
Surface runoff is medium, and the erosion hazard is
severe.
This soil is used mainly for grazing, wildlife habitat, and
some dryland farming (fig. 10). Wheat, barley, and oats
are grown.
Minimum contour tillage and stubble mulching help tc
prevent excessive erosion.
The native vegetation on this soil is mainly wheat
grass, needleandthread, and sagebrush.
When range condition deteriorates, forbs and shrub:
increase. When the range is in poor condition, undesira

57—Potts-Ildefonso complex, 3 to 12 percer
slopes. Theso-.gently sloping to rolling soils are c
mesas and sides of valleys. Elevation ranges from 5,0C
to 6,500 feet. The Potts soil formed in alluvium derive
from sandstone, shale, or basalt. The Ildefonso sr
formed in very "strongly calcareous, basaltic alluvium ar
small amounts of eolian material. The average annu
precipitation is about 14 inches, the average annual r
temperature is about 46 degrees F, and the avera
frost -free period is about 120 days.
The Potts soil makes up about 60 percent of the m;
unit, and the Ildefonso sods makes up about 30 perces
The Potts soil is on slightly concave positions, and t
Ildefonso soil is on the breaks of steeper slopes.
The Potts soil is deep and well drained. Typically, t
surface layer is brown loam about 4 inches thick. T

RIFLE AREA, COLORADO
66—Torrlorthents-Camborthids-Rock outcrop com-
plex, steep. This broadly defined unit consists of ex-
posed sandstone and shale bedrock, loose stones, and
soils that are shallow to deep over sandstone and shale
bedrock and stony basaltic alluvium. This complex
occurs throughout the survey area. The soils and out-
crops are moderately steep to very steep. Slope ranges
from 15 to 70 percent.
Torriorthents make up about 45 percent of the com-
plex, Camborthids make up 20 percent, and Rock out-
crop makes up 15 percent. The Torriorthents are on
foothills and mountainsides below Rock outcrop. The
moderately steep Camborthids are on lower toe slopes
and concave open areas on foothills and mountainsides.
Torriorthents are shallow to moderately deep. They
are generally clayey to loamy and contain variable
amounts of gravel, cobbles, and stones. The surface is
normally covered with stones weathered from the higher -
lying Rock outcrop. South of the Colorado River, basaltic
stones and cobbles are on the surface.
Camborthids are shallow to deep. They are generally
clayey to loamy and have slightly more clay in the sub-
soil than in the surface layer. The surface layer is light
colored. The profile is normally free of stones, but scat-
tered basalt stones, cobbles, and sandstone fragments
are on the surfjce.
The Rock outcrop is mainly Mesa Verde sandstone
and Wasatch shale. Some areas are covered with basal-
tic boulders and stones. Small areas of limestone out-
crops and exposed gypsum are in the eastern part of the
survey area.
Included in mapping are small, isolated areas of lide-
fonso, Lazear, Ansari, Begay, Heldt, and Dollard soils.
These intermittent areas make up 10 to 20 percent of
this map unit.
This complex is used for grazing, wildlife habitat, and
recreation.
The stones on the surface and the steep slopes make
Ibis complex unsuitable for crops. Some areas can be
;reseeded to pasture by broadcast seeding. Other plant-
teg.methods are made difficult by the stones and slopes.
,The native vegetation includes wheatgrasses, blue -
asses, Indian ricegrass, needlegrasses, bitterbrush,
ountainmahogany, sagebrush, and an overstory of
Tryon and juniper.
;The value of grazing is fair. The vegetation should be
anaged to maintain wood production and limited graz-
-.Selectively thinning the pinyon and juniper improves
mg and provides firewood and posts. Steep slopes,
crate to severe erosion hazard, and slow regrowth

This complex is in capability subclass Vile, nonirrigat-
ed.
67—Torriorthents-Rock outcrop complex, steep.
This broadly defined unit consists of exposed sandstone
and shale bedrock and stony soils that are shallow to
moderately deep over sandstone and shale and stony
basaltic alluvium. Areas of this complex occur throughout
the survey area. The soils and outcrops are moderately
steep to very steep. Slope ranges from 15 to 70 percent.
Torriorthents make up about 60 percent of this com-
plex, and Rock outcrop makes up 25 percent. The Tor-
riorthents are on foothills and mountainsides below the
Rock outcrop.
Torriorthents are generally clayey to loamy and con-
tain variable amounts of gravel, cobbles, and stones.
The surface is normally covered with stones weathered
from the higher -lying .Rock outcrop. South of the Colora-
do River, stones and cobbles of basalt are on the sur-
face.
The Rock outcrop is mainly Mesa Verde sandstone
and Wasatch shale. Some areas are covered with basal-
tic boulders and stones. Small areas of limestone out-
crops and exposed gypsum are in the eastern part of the
survey area.
Included in mapping are small isolated areas of Ilde-
fonso, Lazear, Ansari, Gaynor, Tridell, and Nihill soils.
These intermittent areas make up 10 to 15 percent of
this map unit
This complex is used for limited grazing, wildlife habi-
tat, and recreation.
Because of the stones on the surface, the Rock out-
crop, and the steep slope, this complex is unsuited to
crops.
The native vegetation includes wheatgrass, bluegrass,
Indian ricegrass,'-needlegrass, bitterbrush, sagebrush,
mountainmahogany and an overstory of pinyon and juni-
per.
The vegetation should be managed to maintain wood
production and limited grazing. Selectively thinning the
pinyon and juniper improves grazing_ and provides fire-
wood and posts–Steep slopes, moderate to severe ero-
sion hazard, and slow regrowth of trees affect harvesting
and management:,
Most of this complex is a prime wintering area for
deer. Rabbits, coyote, and a few elk also find food and
cover on this complex.
Community development is limited by the Rock out-
crop, steep slopes, and stoniness. These limitations can
be overcome by appropriate design and construction.
This complex is in capability subclass Vile, nonirrigat-
ed.
68—Vale silt loam, 3 to 6 percent slopes. This deep,
well drained, gently sloping soil is on mesas, terraces,
and alluvial fans. Elevation ranges from 5,000 to 7,200
feet. This soil formed in calcareous eolian material. The
