ENGINEERING
1. Table 6, I assume that DA-6A-POST Outfall is the flow leaving the pond, and DA-6A-POST
is the flow entering the pond.
2. Table 6, states that the WSEL in the pond of the 100-yr event is 277.8 with a top of berm
being 278, however on page 7 the freeboard is stated to be.7-ft, please verify.
3. It appears that the pre drainage basin is divided into 2 section: 6A (3.82 acres) which drains
towards TAMU property, and 6REL (1.35acres) which drains towards SH 30 totaling 5.17
acres. However the post drainage basin is divided into 3 sections: 6A (2.98 acres) which
drains thru the pond onto the TAMU property, 6B (0.32 acres) which is downstream of the
pond and drains onto the TAMU property, and 6REL (0.64 acres) which drains toward SH30
totaling 3.94 acres. Please explain the acreage difference in the pre and post basin. Please
explain where the drainage is going from area that was not included in the post condition.
4. In Table 6, the discharge from the pond (6A) to TAMU and from 6B to TAMU totals 14,
however in Table 7 the discharge to TAMU totals 18, please explain.
5. Please check typo in the 2nd sentence of the Purpose statement.
6. Please check typo in Drainage Area Map Pre: DA-6-PRE or DA-6A-PRE?
7. Please check typo in Drainage Area Map Post: DA-6REL-PRE or DA-6REL-POST?
NOTE: Any changes made to the plans,that have not been requested by the City of College Station,must be explained in your next transmittal
letter and"bubbled"on your plans. Any additional changes on these plans that have not been pointed out to the City,will constitute a
completely new review. Page 2 of 3
8. Please verify that Lot 4 of Phase 4 was accounted for with the design of Common Area "F",
and that Lot 5R of Phase 2, Lot 7 of Phase 5, and the 1.74 acre remainder of Lot 6 of Phase
5 was accounted for with the design of Common Areas "G" and "I".
9. Table 5, how can the pond have a volume at 278.5, when the spillway is at 278?
10. The proposed discharge points appear to be creating an off-site point discharge. Unlike
Common Area "F" it does not appear that there is an existing off-site swell and culvert to
accept the discharge from Common Area "H". Please revise or provide acceptance from off-
site property owner.

ENGINEERING
1. There are concerns regarding the functionality of the proposed berm turning the point
discharge back to sheet flow, specifically future maintenance issues with the berm and
berm outlets and potential negative impacts to the downstream property. Is it possible to
design the detention pond to discharge into the existing open ditch in TxDOT ROW?
