ENGINEERING COMMENTS NO. 3
1. Specify water-tight manholes lids in floodplain areas where rim elevations are
lower than BFE, specifically MH No.1.
2. Will an additional valve at the end of waterline W-1 help facilitate the future
extension of the line? Or, since you have a tapping sleeve and valve on the 24"
line, can the proposed valves be relocated to the opposite (north) sides of the
cross fittings?
3. Median drainage - It would be preferable to run the 8-inch perpendicular across
the roadway.
4. Median drainage - The geotextile should wrap the perforated pipe and the
washed aggregate as an enchilada. To wrap the pipe with the geotextile puts a
filter over the perforated hole which will then clog with sediment rendering the
system unusable. By wrapping the entire package the drainage area to the hole
is increased and should perform better.
5. Median drainage - Please note on the construction plans that the 8" PVC line is a
private line and will be privately maintained. Also add a note to the Final Plat
Mylar to indicate this.

1. Why are the street intersections/connections with Castlerock Parkway not shown
in the profiles? (Stone Shadow Trail, Rock Bend Drive, Rolling Stone Drive)
2. How will you insure that the drainage will not undercut the roadbed on Stone
Shadow Trail, Rock Bend Drive, Rolling Stone Drive, and south end of Rocky
Creek Trail?
3. Indicate limits of structural backfill on Storm Pipe 2P3.
4. Please insure that where there is a change in pipe diameter, the soffit of smaller
upstream pipe shall at least match the soffit of the larger pipe.
5. What is happening at the outlet of Pipe 5P4? What is the grading from roadway
to drainage channel 2?
6. Provide protection from erosion on drainage channel over sanitary sewer line
where cover is proposed at 2'. (S-1)
7. Provide cross-section of drainage channels. Do you have enough rip-rap at
outfall to Channel No. 1 to reduce the velocity to acceptable range for seeded
grass surface treatment?
8. The storm collection system will be considered private south of where street
pavement ends.
9. Please confirm that the TXU gas line is not high pressure. If it is high pressure
show approximate depth. (W-1)
