4.3 Geology
4.3.1 Regional Geologic Setting
The subject property is located within the Peninsular Ranges Geomorphic Province of California. The Peninsular Ranges consist of a series of mountain ranges separated by longitudinal valleys. The ranges trend northwest-southeast and are sub parallel to faults branching from the San Andreas Fault. The Peninsular Ranges extend from the southern side of the Santa Monica and San Gabriel Mountains into Baja California, Mexico (CDMG, 1997).
4.3.2 Local Geologic Setting
In general, the project site area is underlain by Recent- to Older-aged alluvial deposits which overlie granitic bedrock.
4.4 Subsurface Conditions
a) The subsurface conditions, as encountered in our explorations, are described in the following sections.
b) More detailed descriptions of the subsurface conditions are presented in our Logs of Borings, which are enclosed as Figures B-2 through B-4 in Appendix B. The locations of the borings are shown on our Boring Location Plan, Figure B-5.
4.4.1 Alluvium
a) Alluvial deposits were encountered in all of our borings excavated on-site.
b) The alluvium was found to generally consist of interlayers of Silty SAND, SAND and Sandy to Clayey SILT.
c) The Silty SAND and SAND sediments were generally found to be fine to coarse grained, slightly moist to very moist and medium dense.
d) The Sandy to Clayey SILT deposits were observed to be slightly moist to moist and stiff.

Project 9421-04
4.4.2 Bedrock
a) Bedrock, classified as Tonalite, was encountered at a depth of 37 feet below ground surface in Boring B-1.
b) The bedrock encountered in our boring was noted to be fine textured and hard.
4.4.3 Groundwater
a) Groundwater was encountered in our deeper boring (Boring B-1) at a depth of 24 feet below ground surface. The static water level was measured at a depth of 23.5 feet below ground surface approximately 30 minutes after termination of drilling.
b) No nearby groundwater wells were found to be listed during our review of the California Department of Water Resources internet website.
5. SEISMICITY
5.1 General
a) The property is located in the general proximity of several active and potentially active faults, which are typical for sites in the Southern California region. Earthquakes occurring on active faults within a 70-mile radius are capable of generating ground shaking of engineering significance to the proposed construction.
b) In Southern California, most of the seismic damage to manmade structures results from ground shaking and, to a lesser degree, from liquefaction and ground rupture caused by earthquakes along active fault zones. In general, the greater the magnitude of the earthquake, greater is the potential damage.
5.2 Ground Surface Rupture
a) The closest known active fault is the Elsinore Fault, located at a distance of about 16.3 miles northeast of the project site. Other nearby active or potentially active faults include the Rose Canyon Fault and the San Jacinto Fault located at distances of about 20.8 miles and 40.8 miles, respectively, from the subject property.
b) Due to the distance of the closest active fault to the site, ground rupture is not considered a significant hazard at the site.
DMS Consultants, Inc.
August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
5.3 Ground Shaking
a) We utilized the California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) Seismic Design Maps internet program to calculate the peak ground acceleration (PGA) at the project site location.
Using the ASCE 7-16 standard and Site Class D, the PGA at the subject property resulted to be 0.47g.
b) Figure 2 shows the geographical relationships among the site locations, nearby faults and the epicenters of significant occurrences. The project site is not located within any State of California delineated Earthquake Fault Zone; however, during historic times, a number of major earthquakes have occurred along the active faults in Southern California. From the seismic history of the region and proximity, the Elsinore Fault and Rose Canyon Fault have the greatest potential for causing earthquake damage related to ground shaking at this site.
5.4 Liquefaction
The subject site is underlain by dense soil layers overlying a Tonalite bedrock.
The potential for the liquefaction is considered to be low.
6. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
6.1 General
a) It is our opinion that the site will be suitable for the proposed development, from a geotechnical aspect, assuming that our recommendations are implemented.
b) We are of the opinion that the proposed structures can be supported on shallow spread footings founded in the existing competent soils. c) We consider that the anticipated grading will not adversely affect, nor be adversely affected by adjoining property, with due precautions being taken.
d) The final grading plans and foundation plans/design loads should be reviewed by the Geotechnical Engineer.
e) The design recommendations in the report should be reviewed during the construction phase.

6.2 Grading
6.2.1 Processing of On-Site Soils
a) To provide uniform support conditions, the subgrade soils should be overexcavated to a depth of one foot below the foundation bottom and three feet below the slab-on-grade, subject to review during construction. The overexcavation should laterally extend for a distance of 5 feet.
b) There should be at least one foot of reworked soils or compacted fill below the pavements.
c) Wherever structural fills are to be placed, the upper 6 to 8 inches of the subgrade should, after stripping or overexcavation, first be scarified, reworked and wetted down thoroughly.
d) Any loosening of reworked or native material, consequent to the passage of construction traffic, weathering, etc., should be made good prior to further construction.
e) The depths of overexcavation should be reviewed by the Geotechnical Engineer during the actual construction. Any surface or subsurface obstructions, or questionable material encountered during grading should be brought immediately to the attention of the Geotechnical Engineer for proper exposure, removal or processing as directed. No underground obstructions or facilities should remain in any structural areas. Depressions and/or cavities created as a result of the removal of obstructions should be backfilled properly with suitable material, and compacted.
6.2.2 Material Selection
After the site has been stripped of any debris, vegetation and organic soils, excavated on-site soils are considered satisfactory for reuse in the construction of on-site fills, with the following provisions:
a) Significant water will be required to be added to the existing soils; b) The organic content does not exceed 3 percent by volume; c) Large size rocks greater than 8 inches in diameter should not be incorporated in compacted fill;
DMS Consultants, Inc.
August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
d) Rocks greater than 4 inches in diameter should not be incorporated in compacted fill to within one foot of the underside of the footings and slabs.
6.2.3 Compaction Requirements
a) Reworking/compaction shall include moisture-conditioning as needed to bring the soils to slightly above the optimum moisture content. All reworked soils and structural fills should be densified to achieve at least 90 percent relative compaction with reference to laboratory compaction standard. The optimum moisture content and maximum dry density should be determined in the laboratory in accordance with ASTM Test Designation D1557.
b) Fill should be compacted in lifts not exceeding 8 inches (loose).
6.2.4 Excavating Conditions
a) Excavation of on-site materials may be accomplished with standard earthmoving or trenching equipment. No hard rock was encountered which will require blasting.
b) Ground water was encountered at a depth of 24 feet below ground surface in our deeper boring. Dewatering is not anticipated in excavations shallower than 24 feet below ground surface.
6.2.5 Shrinkage
For preliminary earthwork calculation, an average shrinkage factor of approximately 5 percent is recommended for the soils (this does not include handling losses).
6.2.6 Expansion Potential
a) Based upon our visual observations, the expansion potential for the on-site soils is considered to be medium. The recommendations provided in the following sections will reduce the effects of the expansive subgrade soils.
b) Any imported material, or doubtful material exposed during grading, should be evaluated for its expansive properties. c) In any event, the subgrade soils should be tested for their expansion potential or during the final stages of grading.
DMS Consultants, Inc.
August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
6.2.7 Sulphate Content
a) The sulphate contents of representative samples of the soil are less than 0.1%. The sulphate exposure is considered to be negligible.
Type II Portland cement is recommended for the construction. a) The fill materials should be tested for their sulphate content during the final stage of rough grading.
6.2.8 Utility Trenching
a) The walls of temporary construction trenches in fill should stand nearly vertical, with only minor sloughing, provided the total depth does not exceed 3 feet (approximately). Shoring of excavation walls or flattening of slopes may be required, if greater depths are necessary.
b) Trenches should be located so as not to impair the bearing capacity or to cause settlement under foundations. As a guide, trenches should be clear of a 45-degree plane, extending outward and downward from the edge of foundations. Shoring should comply with Cal-OSHA regulations.
c) Existing soils may be utilized for trenching backfill, provided they are free of organic materials.
d) All work associated with trench shoring must conform to the state and federal safety codes.
6.2.9 Surface Drainage Provisions
Positive surface gradients should be provided adjacent to the buildings to direct surface water run-off away from structural foundations and to suitable discharge facilities.
6.2.10 Grading Control
All grading and earthwork should be performed under the observation of a Geotechnical Engineer in order to achieve proper subgrade preparation, selection of satisfactory materials, placement and compaction of all structural fill. Sufficient notification prior to stripping and earthwork construction is essential to make certain that the work will be adequately observed and tested.
DMS Consultants, Inc.
August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
6.3 Slab-on-Grade
a) Concrete floor slabs may be founded on the reworked existing soils or compacted fill.
b) The slab should be underlain by four inches of granular material. A plastic vapor barrier is recommended to be placed at the mid-height of the base layer.
c) It is recommended that #4 bars on 12-inch center, both ways, or equivalent be provided as minimum reinforcement in slabs-on-grade. Joints should be provided and slabs supporting no vehicular traffic should be at least 5 inches thick.
d) The FFL should be at least 6 inches above highest adjacent grade. e) The subgrade soils should be kept moist prior to the concrete pour.
6.4 Spread Foundations
The proposed structures can be founded on shallow spread footings. The criteria presented as follows should be adopted:

August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
• These values may be increased by one-third in the case of shortduration loads, such as induced by wind or seismic forces; • At least 2x#4 bars should be provided in wall footings, one on top and one at the bottom;
• In the event that footings are founded in structural fills consisting of imported materials, the allowable bearing capacities will depend on the type of these materials, and should be re-evaluated;
• Bearing capacities should be re-evaluated when loads have been obtained and footings sized during the preliminary design; • Planter areas should not be sited adjacent to walls;
• Footing excavations should be observed by the Geotechnical Engineer; • Footing excavations should be kept moist prior to the concrete pour; • It should be insured that the embedment depths do not become reduced or adversely affected by erosion, softening, planting, digging, etc.)
6.4.3 Settlements
Total and differential settlements under spread footings are expected to be within tolerable limits and are not expected to exceed 1 and ¾ inches in a horizontal distance of 40 feet, respectively.
6.5 Lateral Pressures
a) The following lateral pressures are recommended for the design of retaining structures.
Pressure (lb/ft2/ft depth)

b) Friction coefficient: 0.35 (includes a Factor of Safety of 1.5). While combining friction with passive resistance, reduce passive by 1/3. c) These values apply to the existing soil, and to compacted backfill generated from in-situ material. Imported material should be evaluated separately. It is recommended that where feasible, imported granular backfill be utilized, for a width equal to approximately one-quarter the wall height, and not less than 1.5 feet.
d) Backfill should be placed under engineering control. e) Subdrains comprised of 4-inch perforated SDR-35 or equivalent PVC pipe covered in a minimum of one cubic foot per linear foot of filter rock and wrapped in Mirafi 140N filter fabric should be provided behind retaining walls.
6.6 Seismic Coefficients and Liquefaction Potential
a) For seismic analysis of the proposed project in accordance with the seismic provisions of ASCE 7-16, we recommend the following:
ITEM VALUE
Site Latitude (Decimal-degrees) 33.14197
Site Longitude (Decimal-degrees) -117.16598
Site Class D
Risk Category II
Mapped Spectral Response Acceleration-Short Period (0.2 Sec) - SS 0.897 Mapped Spectral Response Acceleration-1 Second Period – S1 0.33 Short Period Site Coefficient-Fa 1.141

6.7 Pavement Design
6.7.1 Asphalt Pavement Section
a) Based on Traffic Indices (T.I) and on the anticipated “R” – Value of 42 of the subgrade, the following tentative structural pavement sections are recommended.
b) The subgrade soils should be tested for R-Value at the conclusion of rough grading and the pavement sections should be finalized then.
6.7.2 Subgrade Preparation
Subgrade soils within the upper 12 inches of finished grade shall be moisture-conditioned where necessary, shall be compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D1557, and shall be free of any loose or soft areas.
6.7.3 Base Preparation
Unless otherwise specified, the base shall consist of Class II ¾-inch aggregate base or approved Crushed Miscellaneous Base. The base shall be compacted to a minimum of 95 percent relative compaction in accordance with the procedures described in ASTM Test Method D1557.
6.7.4 Concrete Pavement
If proposed, the concrete pavement should be at least 5 inches thick, reinforced with #4 bars on 12 inches center bothways, underlain by 4 inches thick base as recommended above. Thicker concrete section will be required for traffic greater than T.I. of 6.0.
6.8 Corrosion Potential
a) Soil Corrosion potential for metal and concrete was estimated by performing water-soluble sulfate, chloride, pH, and electrical resistivity tests during this investigation.

b) Electrical resistivity is a measure of soil resistance to the flow of corrosion currents. Corrosion currents are generally high in low resistivity soils.
The electrical resistivity of a soil decreases primarily with an increase in its chemical and moisture contents.
c) A commonly accepted correlation between electrical resistivity and corrosivity for buried ferrous metals is presented below:
Electrical Resistivity, Ohm-cm Corrosion Potential
Less than 1,000 Severe
1,000-2,000 Corrosive
2,000-10,000 Moderate
Greater than 10,000 Mild
d) Results of electrical resistivity test indicate a value of 3,339 ohm-cm for the near-surface soils. Based on this data, it is our opinion that, in general, on-site near-surface soils are considered moderately corrosive in nature.
This potential should be considered in design of underground metal pipes.
6.9 Percolation Study
a) The soils in the upper 5 feet were Clayey Silty SAND underlain by Silty SAND/Sandy SILT. We recommend the basin to be at least 6 feet deep. b) As more granular soils are anticipated at that depth, we estimate the following infiltration rate. During the grading operation, a percolation test should be conducted to verify the infiltration rate.
Boring No. Percolation Rate (inch/hour)
P-1 3.0
c) These rates are calculated using a factor of safety of 1.0. Appropriate factor of safety should be utilized while designing the basin.

7. LIMITATIONS
a) Soils and bedrock over an area show variations in geological structure, type, strength and other properties from what can be observed, sampled and tested from specimens extracted from necessarily limited exploratory borings. Therefore, there are natural limitations inherent in making geologic and soil engineering studies and analyses.
Our findings, interpretations, analyses and recommendations are based on observation, laboratory data and our professional experience; and the projections we make are professional judgments conforming to the usual standards of the profession. No other warranty is herein expressed or implied. b) In the event that during construction, conditions are exposed which are significantly different from those described in this report, they should be brought to the attention of the Geotechnical Engineer.
The opportunity to be of service is sincerely appreciated. If you have any questions or if we can be of further assistance, please call.

APPENDIX C
Laboratory Testing Program
The laboratory-testing program was directed towards providing quantitative data relating to the relevant engineering properties of the soils. Samples considered representative of site conditions were tested as described below.
a) Moisture and Density
Moisture-density information usually provides a gross indication of soil consistency.
Local variations at the time of the investigation can be delineated, and a correlation obtained between soils found on this site and nearby sites. The dry unit weights and field moisture contents were determined for selected samples. The results are shown on the Logs of Borings.
b) Compaction
A representative soil sample was tested in the laboratory to determine the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content, using the ASTM D1557 compaction test method.
This test procedure requires 25 blows of a 10-pound hammer falling a height of 18 inches on each of five layers, in a 1/30 cubic foot cylinder. The results of the test are presented below.

c) Direct Shear
Direct shear tests were made on remolded samples, using a direct shear machine at a constant rate of strain. Variable normal or confining loads are applied vertically and the soil shear strengths are obtained at these loads. The angle of internal friction and the cohesion are then evaluated. The samples were tested at saturated moisture contents. The results are shown below in terms of the Coulomb shear strength parameters.

Notes:
x Drawdown time must be less than 36 hours. This criterion was set to achieve average annual capture of 80% to account for back to back storms (See rationale in Section B.4.3). In order to use a different drawdown time, BMPs should be sized using the percent capture method (Section B.4.2).
x The average effective depth calculation should account for any aggregate/media in the BMP.
For example, 4 feet of stone at a porosity of 0.4 would equate to 1.6 feet of effective depth. x This method may overestimate drawdown time for BMPs that drain through both the bottom and walls of the system. BMP specific calculations of drawdown time may be provided that account for BMP-specific geometry.

RE: Summary of SWMM Modeling for Hydromodification Compliance for Pico Place, San Marcos, CA.
INTRODUCTION
This memorandum summarizes the approach used to model the proposed residential development project site in the City of San Marcos using the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Storm Water Management Model 5.0 (SWMM). SWMM models were prepared for the pre and post‐developed conditions at the site in order to determine if the proposed LID facilities have sufficient volume to meet Order R9‐2013‐001 requirements of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board San Diego Region (SDRWQCB), as explained in the Final Hydromodification Management Plan (HMP), dated March 2011, prepared for the County of San Diego by Brown and Caldwell.
SWMM MODEL DEVELOPMENT
The Pico Place project comprises of a multi0family development inclusive of a private drive accessway and vegetated landscaped areas. Two (2) SWMM models were prepared for this study: the first for the pre‐development and the second for the post‐developed conditions. The project site drains to one (1) overall Point of Compliance (POC‐1), located at the existing storm drain system to the eastern boundary of the project site within the adjacent Pico Avenue.
Per Section G.1.2 in Appendix G of the 2016 City of San Marcos’ BMP Design Manual, the EPA SWMM model was used to perform the continuous hydrologic simulation. For both SWMM models, flow duration curves were prepared to determine if the proposed HMP facility is sufficient to meet the current HMP requirements.
The inputs required to develop SWMM models include rainfall, watershed characteristics, and BMP configurations. The Poway gauge from the Project Clean Water website was used for this study, since it is the most representative of the project site precipitation due to elevation and proximity to the project site. Please see gauge location and project location map on Attachment 5.
The Escondido gage is not recommended for continuous simulation because (a) 22% of the intensities higher than 0.4 in/hr have data problems, and (b) the highest intensities measured in this station do not belong to the location of the gage (were copied from Wolford, at an elevation 850 ft higher than Escondido). Similarly, Wohlford data was not used mainly because the difference in elevation. At this point, we decided that the closest gage, with no significant data problems at similar elevation than the project elevation, was the most appropriate, therefore we used Poway precipitation.

2 Per the California Irrigation Management Information System “Reference Evaporation Zones” (CIMIS ETo Zone Map), the project site is located within the Zone 6 Evapotranspiration Area. Thus evapotranspiration values for the site were modeled using Zone 9 average monthly values from Table G.1‐1 from the City of San Marcos’ 2016 BMP Design Manual. The site was modeled with type C hydrologic soil per the site‐specific geotechnical report undertaken for the project site (please refer to Attachment 8 of this memo).
Soils have been assumed to be compacted in the existing condition to represent the current developed condition of the site. In the post developed conditions, the soils have been modeled as fully compacted.
Other SWMM inputs for the subareas are discussed in the appendices to this document, where the selection of the parameters is explained in detail.
HMP MODELING
PRE DEVELOPED CONDITIONS
The current property consists on a developed residential site that drains via overland flow to a receiving storm drain system (POC‐1) located within Pico Avenue to the east of the project site. Flows split to the east and west of the site however both outlets are then drained to the same receiving system within Pico Avenue. Table 1 below illustrates the pre‐developed area to be developed and impervious percentage accordingly.

TOTAL ‐‐ 0.675 0%
Notes: (1) – Per the 2013 RWQCB permit, existing condition impervious surfaces are not to be accounted for in existing conditions analysis.
DEVELOPED CONDITIONS
Runoff from the developed project site is drained to one (1) onsite receiving LID Infiltration BMP. Once flows are routed via the proposed LID BMPs, developed onsite flows are then conveyed to the aforementioned POC. Table 2 below summarizes the DMAs for the developed site.

Developed flows from the project site are conveyed to one (1) onsite detention facility prior to discharging to the existing storm drain system. The vault system is approximately 9‐feet deep with a width of 8‐feet and length of 50‐feet. Due to the limited grade on the project site and utility constraints, the vault is to be located several feet below the existing storm drain invert in Pico Avenue such that the Pico Place
November 3, 2022
3 vault can only be drained via the use of pumps. Due to HMP criteria, two (2) separate pumps will be employed on the project site, a low flow pump outlet will be located at 3.0 feet from the bottom of the basin invert while the peak Q100 flow pump will be located at 7.25 feet from the basin invert. In an extreme event, flows will outlet via the surface private drive to Pico Avenue without risk of flooding the residential structures and also providing single vehicular lane access.
Due to the high rate of measured infiltration onsite experienced during the geotechnical investigation, the base of the vault will be unlined such that flows can infiltrate into the underlying base. The filtration basin has been modeled directly as basins within SWMM can have infiltration associated with the base footprint accordingly.
Water Quality BMP Sizing &Drawdown Calculations
It is assumed all storm water quality requirements for the project will be met by the LID BMPs detailed in the SWQMP and other BMPs included within the site design. However, detailed water quality requirements are not discussed within this technical memo. For further information in regards to storm water quality requirements for the project (including sizing and drawdown) please refer to the site‐ specific Storm Water Quality Management Plan (SWQMP).
BMP MODELING FOR HMP PURPOSES
Modeling of HMP BMPs
One (1) LID BMP basin is proposed for hydromodification conformance for the project site. Tables 4 and 5 illustrates the dimensions required for HMP compliance according to the SWMM model that was undertaken for the project. It should be noted that pumps are the only possible outlet structure such that an elevation and flow will be identified for the system.

4 FLOW DURATION CURVE COMPARISON
The Flow Duration Curve (FDC) for the site was compared at the POCs by exporting the hourly runoff time series results from SWMM to a spreadsheet.
Q2 and Q10 were determined with a partial duration statistical analysis of the runoff time series in an Excel spreadsheet using the Cunnane plotting position method (which is the preferred plotting methodology in the HMP Permit). As the SWMM Model includes a statistical analysis based on the Weibull Plotting Position Method, the Weibull Method was also used within the spreadsheet to ensure that the results were similar to those obtained by the SWMM Model.
The range between 10% of Q2 and Q10 was divided into 100 equal time intervals; the number of hours that each flow rate was exceeded was counted from the hourly series. Additionally, the intermediate peaks with a return period “i” were obtained (Qi with i=3 to 9). For the purpose of the plot, the values were presented as percentage of time exceeded for each flow rate. FDC comparison at the POC is illustrated in Figure 1 in both normal and logarithmic scale.
As can be seen in Figure 1, the FDC for the proposed condition with the HMP BMPs is within 110% of the curve for the existing condition in both peak flows and durations. The additional runoff volume generated from developing the site will be released to the existing point of discharge at a flow rate below the 10% Q2 lower threshold for the POC. Additionally, the project will also not increase peak flow rates between the Q2 and the Q10, as shown in the peak flow table in Attachment 1.
Discussion of the Manning’s coefficient (Pervious Areas) for Pre and Post‐Development Conditions Typically, the Manning’s coefficient is selected as n = 0.10 for pervious areas and n = 0.012 for impervious areas. However, due to the impact that n has in the continuous simulation a more accurate value of the Manning’s coefficient has been chosen for pervious areas. Taken into consideration the study prepared by TRWE (Reference [6]) a value of n = 0.05 has been selected (see Table 1 of Reference [6] included in Attachment 7). An average n value between average grass plus pasture (0.04) and dense grass (0.06) has been selected per the reference cited, for light rain (<0.8 in/hr) as more than 99% of the rainfall has been measured with this intensity.
SUMMARY
This study has demonstrated that the proposed HMP BMP provided for the Pico Place site is sufficient to meet the current HMP criteria if the cross‐section areas and volumes recommended within this technical memorandum, and the respective orifice and outlet structure are incorporated as specified within the proposed project site.

FLOW DURATION CURVE ANALYSIS
1) Flow duration curve shall not exceed the existing conditions by more than 10%, neither in peak flow nor duration.
The figures on the following pages illustrate that the flow duration curve in post‐development conditions after the proposed BMP is below the existing flow duration curve. The flow duration curve table following the curve shows that if the interval 0.10Q2 – Q10 is divided in 100 sub‐ intervals, then a) the post development divided by pre‐development durations are never larger than 110% (the permit allows up to 110%); and b) there are no more than 10 intervals in the range 101%‐110% which would imply an excess over 10% of the length of the curve (the permit allows less than 10% of excesses measured as 101‐110%).
Consequently, the design passes the hydromodification test.
It is important to note that the flow duration curve can be expressed in the “x” axis as percentage of time, hours per year, total number of hours, or any other similar time variable. As those variables only differ by a multiplying constant, their plot in logarithmic scale is going to look exactly the same, and compliance can be observed regardless of the variable selected.
However, in order to satisfy the City of San Marcos HMP example, % of time exceeded is the variable of choice in the flow duration curve. The selection of a logarithmic scale in lieu of the normal scale is preferred, as differences between the pre‐development and post‐development curves can be seen more clearly in the entire range of analysis. Both graphics are presented just to prove the difference.
In terms of the “y” axis, the peak flow value is the variable of choice. As an additional analysis performed by REC, not only the range of analysis is clearly depicted (10% of Q2 to Q10) but also all intermediate flows are shown (Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8 and Q9) in order to demonstrate compliance at any range Qx – Qx+1. It must be pointed out that one of the limitations of both the SWMM and SDHM models is that the intermediate analysis is not performed (to obtain Qi from i = 2 to 10). REC performed the analysis using the Cunnane Plotting position Method (the preferred method in the HMP permit) from the “n” largest independent peak flows obtained from the continuous time series.
The largest “n” peak flows are attached in this appendix, as well as the values of Qi with a return period “i”, from i=2 to 10. The Qi values are also added into the flow‐duration plot.

i: Position of the peak whose probability is desired (sorted from large to small) n: number of years analyzed.
Explanation of Variables for the Tables in this Attachment Peak: Refers to the peak flow at the date given, taken from the continuous simulation hourly results of the n year analyzed.
Posit: If all peaks are sorted from large to small, the position of the peak in a sorting analysis is included under the variable Posit.
Date: Date of the occurrence of the peak at the outlet from the continuous simulation Note: all peaks are not annual maxima; instead they are defined as event maxima, with a threshold to separate peaks of at least 12 hours. In other words, any peak P in a time series is defined as a value where dP/dt = 0, and the peak is the largest value in 25 hours (12 hours before, the hour of occurrence and 12 hours after the occurrence, so it is in essence a daily peak).

AREA VS ELEVATION
The storage provided by the detention vault is entered into the Storage Module within SWMM – please refer to Attachment 7 for further information. It should be noted that all facilities are walled; as such the stage‐area relationship is a constant. A stage‐storage calculation is provided on the following page for verification.
DISCHARGE VS ELEVATION
Due to elevation constraints on the project site, the outlets from the vault are pumps – as such a constant flow out from the vault is experienced when the volume within the basin exceeds the invert elevation of the pump outlet invert.

EPA SWMM FIGURES AND EXPLANATIONS
Per the attached, the reader can see the screens associated with the EPA‐SWMM Model in both pre‐development and post‐development conditions. Each portion, i.e., sub‐catchments, outfalls, storage units, weir as a discharge, and outfalls (point of compliance), are also shown.
Variables for modeling are associated with typical recommended values by the EPA‐SWMM model, typical values found in technical literature (such as Maidment’s Handbook of Hydrology). Recommended values for the SWMM model have been attained from Appendix G of the 2016 City of San Marcos BMP Design Manual.
Soil characteristics of the existing soils were determined from the NRCS Web Soil Survey and site specific geotechnical report (located in Attachment 8 of this report).
A Technical document prepared by Tory R Walker Engineering for the Cities of San Marcos, Oceanside and Vista (Reference [1]) can also be consulted for additional information regarding typical values for SWMM parameters.
Manning’s roughness coefficients have been based upon the findings of the “Improving Accuracy in Continuous Hydrologic Modeling: Guidance for Selecting Pervious Overland Flow Manning’s n Values in the San Diego Region” date 2016 by TRW Engineering (Reference [6]).
PRE‐DEVELOPED CONDITION
POST‐DEVELOPED CONDITION
Detention Basin
EXPLANATION OF SELECTED VARIABLES
Sub Catchment Areas:
Please refer to the attached diagrams that indicate the DMA and detention BMPs (BMP) sub areas modeled within the project site at both the pre and post developed conditions draining to the POC.
Parameters for the pre‐ and post‐developed models include soil type C as determined from the NRCS websoil survey review (attached at the end of this appendix). Suction head, conductivity and initial deficit corresponds to average values expected for these soils types, according to Appendix G of the 2016 City of San Marcos BMP Design Manual.
For surface runoff infiltration values, REC selected infiltration values per Appendix G of the 2016 City of San Marcos BMP Design Manual corresponding to hydrologic soil type.
Selection of a Kinematic Approach: As the continuous model is based on hourly rainfall, and the time of concentration for the pre‐development and post‐development conditions is significantly smaller than 60 minutes, precise routing of the flows through the impervious surfaces, the underdrain pipe system, and the discharge pipe was considered unnecessary. The truncation error of the precipitation into hourly steps is much more significant than the precise routing in a system where the time of concentration is much smaller than 1 hour.
Overland Flow Manning’s Coefficient per TRWE (Reference [6]) 3 Further discussion is provided on page 6 under “Discussion of Differences Between Manning’s n Values” 3 appeal of a de facto value, we anticipate that jurisdictions will not be inclined to approve land surfaces other than short prairie grass. Therefore, in order to provide SWMM users with a wider range of land surfaces suitable for local application and to provide Copermittees with confidence in the design parameters, we recommend using the values published by Yen and Chow in Table 3-5 of the EPA SWMM Reference Manual Volume I – Hydrology.
SWMM-Endorsed Values Will Improve Model Quality
In January 2016, the EPA released the SWMM Reference Manual Volume I – Hydrology (SWMM Hydrology Reference Manual). The SWMM Hydrology Reference Manual complements the SWMM 5 User’s Manual and SWMM 5 Applications Manual by providing an in-depth description of the program’s hydrologic components (EPA 2016). Table 3-5 of the SWMM Hydrology Reference Manual expounds upon SWMM 5 User’s Manual Table A.6 by providing Manning’s n values for additional overland flow surfaces3
. The values are provided in Table 1:

Subject: Geotechnical Investigation
Proposed Multi-Family Residential Development
236 and 244 Pico Avenue
San Marcos, California
References: See Appendix A
Dear Mr. Dewan:
1. INTRODUCTION
a) In accordance with your request, we have conducted a geotechnical investigation for the proposed residential development located in San Marcos, California. b) We understand that the proposed development will consist of the construction of four 3-story, multi-family residential structures, each unit approximately 1,170- squarefoot, with related parking/driveway areas on a 0.67-acre parcel of land. In addition, an infiltration system is planned to be installed for potential stormwater runoff.
c) Grading and structural plans are not available at present. We are assuming that the existing grades will remain unchanged. We anticipate the loads from the proposed structures will not exceed 3 kip/ft for the continuous footings and 50 kips for the column footings.
2. SCOPE
The scope of services we provided were as follows:
a) Preliminary planning and evaluations, and review of geotechnical reports related to the project site and nearby surrounding area (See References – Appendix A); GLOBAL GEO-ENGINEERING, INC.
DMS Consultants, Inc.
August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
b) Excavation of three (3) borings utilizing a hollow stem auger drill rig to a maximum depth of 40 feet below ground surface. One of the borings was drilled to a depth of 5 feet below ground surface for the purpose of percolation testing; c) Sampling and logging of subsurface materials encountered in the borings; d) Field percolation testing to determine the infiltrations rate; e) Laboratory testing of samples representative of those obtained in the field, in order to evaluate relevant engineering properties;
f) Engineering and geologic analyses of the field and laboratory data; g) Preparation of a report presenting our findings, conclusions and recommendations.
3. FIELD EXPLORATION AND LABORATORY TESTING
The field exploration program is given in Appendix B, which includes the Logs of Borings.
The results of the laboratory testing are included in Appendix C.
4. SITE DESCRIPTION
4.1 Location
a) The project site is located along the southwest side of Pico Avenue, approximately 280 feet northwest of San Marcos Boulevard, in the city of San Marcos, California.
b) The approximate site location is shown on the Location Map, Figure 1.
4.2 Existing Surface Conditions
a) The subject property is currently vacant and void of any building structures. b) The ground surface throughout the project site is relatively level. The natural topography of the site area descends to the south at an approximate gradient of one percent.
c) Surface drainage consists of sheet flow runoff of incident rainfall water derived primarily within the property boundaries and adjacent properties.

4.3 Geology
4.3.1 Regional Geologic Setting
The subject property is located within the Peninsular Ranges Geomorphic Province of California. The Peninsular Ranges consist of a series of mountain ranges separated by longitudinal valleys. The ranges trend northwest-southeast and are sub parallel to faults branching from the San Andreas Fault. The Peninsular Ranges extend from the southern side of the Santa Monica and San Gabriel Mountains into Baja California, Mexico (CDMG, 1997).
4.3.2 Local Geologic Setting
In general, the project site area is underlain by Recent- to Older-aged alluvial deposits which overlie granitic bedrock.
4.4 Subsurface Conditions
a) The subsurface conditions, as encountered in our explorations, are described in the following sections.
b) More detailed descriptions of the subsurface conditions are presented in our Logs of Borings, which are enclosed as Figures B-2 through B-4 in Appendix B. The locations of the borings are shown on our Boring Location Plan, Figure B-5.
4.4.1 Alluvium
a) Alluvial deposits were encountered in all of our borings excavated on-site.
b) The alluvium was found to generally consist of interlayers of Silty SAND, SAND and Sandy to Clayey SILT.
c) The Silty SAND and SAND sediments were generally found to be fine to coarse grained, slightly moist to very moist and medium dense.
d) The Sandy to Clayey SILT deposits were observed to be slightly moist to moist and stiff.
DMS Consultants, Inc.
August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
4.4.2 Bedrock
a) Bedrock, classified as Tonalite, was encountered at a depth of 37 feet below ground surface in Boring B-1.
b) The bedrock encountered in our boring was noted to be fine textured and hard.
4.4.3 Groundwater
a) Groundwater was encountered in our deeper boring (Boring B-1) at a depth of 24 feet below ground surface. The static water level was measured at a depth of 23.5 feet below ground surface approximately 30 minutes after termination of drilling.
b) No nearby groundwater wells were found to be listed during our review of the California Department of Water Resources internet website.
5. SEISMICITY
5.1 General
a) The property is located in the general proximity of several active and potentially active faults, which are typical for sites in the Southern California region. Earthquakes occurring on active faults within a 70-mile radius are capable of generating ground shaking of engineering significance to the proposed construction.
b) In Southern California, most of the seismic damage to manmade structures results from ground shaking and, to a lesser degree, from liquefaction and ground rupture caused by earthquakes along active fault zones. In general, the greater the magnitude of the earthquake, greater is the potential damage.
5.2 Ground Surface Rupture
a) The closest known active fault is the Elsinore Fault, located at a distance of about 16.3 miles northeast of the project site. Other nearby active or potentially active faults include the Rose Canyon Fault and the San Jacinto Fault located at distances of about 20.8 miles and 40.8 miles, respectively, from the subject property.
b) Due to the distance of the closest active fault to the site, ground rupture is not considered a significant hazard at the site.
DMS Consultants, Inc.
August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
5.3 Ground Shaking
a) We utilized the California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) Seismic Design Maps internet program to calculate the peak ground acceleration (PGA) at the project site location.
Using the ASCE 7-16 standard and Site Class D, the PGA at the subject property resulted to be 0.47g.
b) Figure 2 shows the geographical relationships among the site locations, nearby faults and the epicenters of significant occurrences. The project site is not located within any State of California delineated Earthquake Fault Zone; however, during historic times, a number of major earthquakes have occurred along the active faults in Southern California. From the seismic history of the region and proximity, the Elsinore Fault and Rose Canyon Fault have the greatest potential for causing earthquake damage related to ground shaking at this site.
5.4 Liquefaction
The subject site is underlain by dense soil layers overlying a Tonalite bedrock.
The potential for the liquefaction is considered to be low.
6. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
6.1 General
a) It is our opinion that the site will be suitable for the proposed development, from a geotechnical aspect, assuming that our recommendations are implemented.
b) We are of the opinion that the proposed structures can be supported on shallow spread footings founded in the existing competent soils. c) We consider that the anticipated grading will not adversely affect, nor be adversely affected by adjoining property, with due precautions being taken.
d) The final grading plans and foundation plans/design loads should be reviewed by the Geotechnical Engineer.
e) The design recommendations in the report should be reviewed during the construction phase.

6.2 Grading
6.2.1 Processing of On-Site Soils
a) To provide uniform support conditions, the subgrade soils should be overexcavated to a depth of one foot below the foundation bottom and three feet below the slab-on-grade, subject to review during construction. The overexcavation should laterally extend for a distance of 5 feet.
b) There should be at least one foot of reworked soils or compacted fill below the pavements.
c) Wherever structural fills are to be placed, the upper 6 to 8 inches of the subgrade should, after stripping or overexcavation, first be scarified, reworked and wetted down thoroughly.
d) Any loosening of reworked or native material, consequent to the passage of construction traffic, weathering, etc., should be made good prior to further construction.
e) The depths of overexcavation should be reviewed by the Geotechnical Engineer during the actual construction. Any surface or subsurface obstructions, or questionable material encountered during grading should be brought immediately to the attention of the Geotechnical Engineer for proper exposure, removal or processing as directed. No underground obstructions or facilities should remain in any structural areas. Depressions and/or cavities created as a result of the removal of obstructions should be backfilled properly with suitable material, and compacted.
6.2.2 Material Selection
After the site has been stripped of any debris, vegetation and organic soils, excavated on-site soils are considered satisfactory for reuse in the construction of on-site fills, with the following provisions:
a) Significant water will be required to be added to the existing soils; b) The organic content does not exceed 3 percent by volume; c) Large size rocks greater than 8 inches in diameter should not be incorporated in compacted fill;
DMS Consultants, Inc.
August 31, 2022
Project 9421-04
d) Rocks greater than 4 inches in diameter should not be incorporated in compacted fill to within one foot of the underside of the footings and slabs.
6.2.3 Compaction Requirements
a) Reworking/compaction shall include moisture-conditioning as needed to bring the soils to slightly above the optimum moisture content. All reworked soils and structural fills should be densified to achieve at least 90 percent relative compaction with reference to laboratory compaction standard. The optimum moisture content and maximum dry density should be determined in the laboratory in accordance with ASTM Test Designation D1557.
b) Fill should be compacted in lifts not exceeding 8 inches (loose).
6.2.4 Excavating Conditions
a) Excavation of on-site materials may be accomplished with standard earthmoving or trenching equipment. No hard rock was encountered which will require blasting.
b) Ground water was encountered at a depth of 24 feet below ground surface in our deeper boring. Dewatering is not anticipated in excavations shallower than 24 feet below ground surface.
6.2.5 Shrinkage
For preliminary earthwork calculation, an average shrinkage factor of approximately 5 percent is recommended for the soils (this does not include handling losses).
6.2.6 Expansion Potential
a) Based upon our visual observations, the expansion potential for the on-site soils is considered to be medium. The recommendations provided in the following sections will reduce the effects of the expansive subgrade soils.
b) Any imported material, or doubtful material exposed during grading, should be evaluated for its expansive properties. c) In any event, the subgrade soils should be tested for their expansion potential or during the final stages of grading.

Project 9421-04
6.2.7 Sulphate Content
a) The sulphate contents of representative samples of the soil are less than 0.1%. The sulphate exposure is considered to be negligible.
Type II Portland cement is recommended for the construction. a) The fill materials should be tested for their sulphate content during the final stage of rough grading.
6.2.8 Utility Trenching
a) The walls of temporary construction trenches in fill should stand nearly vertical, with only minor sloughing, provided the total depth does not exceed 3 feet (approximately). Shoring of excavation walls or flattening of slopes may be required, if greater depths are necessary.
b) Trenches should be located so as not to impair the bearing capacity or to cause settlement under foundations. As a guide, trenches should be clear of a 45-degree plane, extending outward and downward from the edge of foundations. Shoring should comply with Cal-OSHA regulations.
c) Existing soils may be utilized for trenching backfill, provided they are free of organic materials.
d) All work associated with trench shoring must conform to the state and federal safety codes.
6.2.9 Surface Drainage Provisions
Positive surface gradients should be provided adjacent to the buildings to direct surface water run-off away from structural foundations and to suitable discharge facilities.
6.2.10 Grading Control
All grading and earthwork should be performed under the observation of a Geotechnical Engineer in order to achieve proper subgrade preparation, selection of satisfactory materials, placement and compaction of all structural fill. Sufficient notification prior to stripping and earthwork construction is essential to make certain that the work will be adequately observed and tested.

6.3 Slab-on-Grade
a) Concrete floor slabs may be founded on the reworked existing soils or compacted fill.
b) The slab should be underlain by four inches of granular material. A plastic vapor barrier is recommended to be placed at the mid-height of the base layer.
c) It is recommended that #4 bars on 12-inch center, both ways, or equivalent be provided as minimum reinforcement in slabs-on-grade. Joints should be provided and slabs supporting no vehicular traffic should be at least 5 inches thick.
d) The FFL should be at least 6 inches above highest adjacent grade. e) The subgrade soils should be kept moist prior to the concrete pour.

Project 9421-04
• These values may be increased by one-third in the case of shortduration loads, such as induced by wind or seismic forces; • At least 2x#4 bars should be provided in wall footings, one on top and one at the bottom;
• In the event that footings are founded in structural fills consisting of imported materials, the allowable bearing capacities will depend on the type of these materials, and should be re-evaluated;
• Bearing capacities should be re-evaluated when loads have been obtained and footings sized during the preliminary design; • Planter areas should not be sited adjacent to walls;
• Footing excavations should be observed by the Geotechnical Engineer; • Footing excavations should be kept moist prior to the concrete pour; • It should be insured that the embedment depths do not become reduced or adversely affected by erosion, softening, planting, digging, etc.)
6.4.3 Settlements
Total and differential settlements under spread footings are expected to be within tolerable limits and are not expected to exceed 1 and ¾ inches in a horizontal distance of 40 feet, respectively.
6.5 Lateral Pressures
a) The following lateral pressures are recommended for the design of retaining structures.

b) Friction coefficient: 0.35 (includes a Factor of Safety of 1.5). While combining friction with passive resistance, reduce passive by 1/3. c) These values apply to the existing soil, and to compacted backfill generated from in-situ material. Imported material should be evaluated separately. It is recommended that where feasible, imported granular backfill be utilized, for a width equal to approximately one-quarter the wall height, and not less than 1.5 feet.
d) Backfill should be placed under engineering control. e) Subdrains comprised of 4-inch perforated SDR-35 or equivalent PVC pipe covered in a minimum of one cubic foot per linear foot of filter rock and wrapped in Mirafi 140N filter fabric should be provided behind retaining walls.
6.6 Seismic Coefficients and Liquefaction Potential
a) For seismic analysis of the proposed project in accordance with the seismic provisions of ASCE 7-16, we recommend the following:
ITEM VALUE
Site Latitude (Decimal-degrees) 33.14197
Site Longitude (Decimal-degrees) -117.16598
Site Class D

6.7 Pavement Design
6.7.1 Asphalt Pavement Section
a) Based on Traffic Indices (T.I) and on the anticipated “R” – Value of 42 of the subgrade, the following tentative structural pavement sections are recommended.
b) The subgrade soils should be tested for R-Value at the conclusion of rough grading and the pavement sections should be finalized then.
6.7.2 Subgrade Preparation
Subgrade soils within the upper 12 inches of finished grade shall be moisture-conditioned where necessary, shall be compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D1557, and shall be free of any loose or soft areas.
6.7.3 Base Preparation
Unless otherwise specified, the base shall consist of Class II ¾-inch aggregate base or approved Crushed Miscellaneous Base. The base shall be compacted to a minimum of 95 percent relative compaction in accordance with the procedures described in ASTM Test Method D1557.
6.7.4 Concrete Pavement
If proposed, the concrete pavement should be at least 5 inches thick, reinforced with #4 bars on 12 inches center bothways, underlain by 4 inches thick base as recommended above. Thicker concrete section will be required for traffic greater than T.I. of 6.0.
6.8 Corrosion Potential
a) Soil Corrosion potential for metal and concrete was estimated by performing water-soluble sulfate, chloride, pH, and electrical resistivity tests during this investigation.

b) Electrical resistivity is a measure of soil resistance to the flow of corrosion currents. Corrosion currents are generally high in low resistivity soils.
The electrical resistivity of a soil decreases primarily with an increase in its chemical and moisture contents.
c) A commonly accepted correlation between electrical resistivity and corrosivity for buried ferrous metals is presented below:
Electrical Resistivity, Ohm-cm Corrosion Potential
Less than 1,000 Severe
1,000-2,000 Corrosive
2,000-10,000 Moderate
Greater than 10,000 Mild
d) Results of electrical resistivity test indicate a value of 3,339 ohm-cm for the near-surface soils. Based on this data, it is our opinion that, in general, on-site near-surface soils are considered moderately corrosive in nature.
This potential should be considered in design of underground metal pipes.
6.9 Percolation Study
a) The soils in the upper 5 feet were Clayey Silty SAND underlain by Silty SAND/Sandy SILT. We recommend the basin to be at least 6 feet deep. b) As more granular soils are anticipated at that depth, we estimate the following infiltration rate. During the grading operation, a percolation test should be conducted to verify the infiltration rate.
Boring No. Percolation Rate (inch/hour)
P-1 3.0
c) These rates are calculated using a factor of safety of 1.0. Appropriate factor of safety should be utilized while designing the basin.

7. LIMITATIONS
a) Soils and bedrock over an area show variations in geological structure, type, strength and other properties from what can be observed, sampled and tested from specimens extracted from necessarily limited exploratory borings. Therefore, there are natural limitations inherent in making geologic and soil engineering studies and analyses.
Our findings, interpretations, analyses and recommendations are based on observation, laboratory data and our professional experience; and the projections we make are professional judgments conforming to the usual standards of the profession. No other warranty is herein expressed or implied. b) In the event that during construction, conditions are exposed which are significantly different from those described in this report, they should be brought to the attention of the Geotechnical Engineer.
The opportunity to be of service is sincerely appreciated. If you have any questions or if we can be of further assistance, please call.

Field Exploration
a) The site was explored on May 17, 2022, utilizing a B-61 Mobile hollow stem drill rig to excavate three borings to a maximum depth of 40 feet below the existing ground surface.
One of the borings were subsequently backfilled. Three-inch diameter perforated pipe with gravel rock encasement was installed in Boring P-1 for the purpose of percolation testing b) The soils encountered in the excavations were logged and sampled by our Engineering Geologist. The soils were classified in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System described in Figure B-1. The Logs of Borings are presented in Figures B-2 through B-4. The approximate locations of the borings are shown on the Boring Location Plan, Plate
1. The logs, as presented, are based on the field logs, modified as required from the results of the laboratory tests. Driven ring and bulk samples were obtained from the excavations for laboratory inspection and testing. The depths at which the samples were obtained are indicated on the logs.
c) The number of blows of the driving weight during sampling was recorded, together with the depth of penetration, the driving weight and the height of fall. The blows required per foot of penetration for given samples was then calculated and shown on the logs. d) Groundwater was encountered at a depth of 24 feet below ground surface in Boring B-1. e) Caving occurred in all of the borings to the depths noted on the logs.

APPENDIX C
Laboratory Testing Program
The laboratory-testing program was directed towards providing quantitative data relating to the relevant engineering properties of the soils. Samples considered representative of site conditions were tested as described below.
a) Moisture and Density
Moisture-density information usually provides a gross indication of soil consistency.
Local variations at the time of the investigation can be delineated, and a correlation obtained between soils found on this site and nearby sites. The dry unit weights and field moisture contents were determined for selected samples. The results are shown on the Logs of Borings.
b) Compaction
A representative soil sample was tested in the laboratory to determine the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content, using the ASTM D1557 compaction test method.
This test procedure requires 25 blows of a 10-pound hammer falling a height of 18 inches on each of five layers, in a 1/30 cubic foot cylinder. The results of the test are presented below.

c) Direct Shear
Direct shear tests were made on remolded samples, using a direct shear machine at a constant rate of strain. Variable normal or confining loads are applied vertically and the soil shear strengths are obtained at these loads. The angle of internal friction and the cohesion are then evaluated. The samples were tested at saturated moisture contents. The results are shown below in terms of the Coulomb shear strength parameters.

INF-1 Infiltration Basin
www.sandiegocounty.gov/stormwater E-63 Effective September 15, 2020 downstream storm drain system or discharge point.
3. If an infiltration basin cannot fully provide the flow rate and duration control required by this manual, an upstream or downstream structure with appropriate storage volume such as an underground vault can be used to provide additional control.
4. After the infiltration basin has been designed to meet flow control requirements, calculations must be completed to verify if storm water pollutant control requirements to treat the DCV have been met.
Maintenance Overview
Normal Expected Maintenance. Infiltration basins require routine maintenance to: remove accumulated materials such as sediment, trash or debris from the forebay and the basin; maintain vegetation health if the BMP includes vegetation; and maintain integrity of side slopes, inlets, energy dissipators, and outlets. A summary table of standard inspection and maintenance indicators is provided within this Fact Sheet.
Non-Standard Maintenance or BMP Failure. If any of the following scenarios are observed, the BMP is not performing as intended to protect downstream waterways from pollution and/or erosion.
Corrective maintenance, increased inspection and maintenance, BMP replacement, or a different BMP type will be required.
x The BMP is not drained between storm events. Surface ponding longer than approximately 24 hours following a storm event may be detrimental to vegetation health, and surface or subsurface ponding longer than approximately 96 hours following a storm event poses a risk of vector (mosquito) breeding. Poor drainage can result from clogging of the underlying native soils, or clogging of covers applied at the basin surface such as topsoil, mulch, or rock layer.
The specific cause of the drainage issue must be determined and corrected. For surface-level basins (i.e., not underground infiltration galleries), surface cover materials can be removed and replaced, and/or native soils can be scarified or tilled to help reestablish infiltration. If it is determined that the underlying native soils have been compacted or do not have the infiltration capacity expected, or if the infiltration surface area is not accessible (e.g., an underground infiltration gallery) the County reviewer shall be contacted prior to any additional repairs or reconstruction.
x Sediment, trash, or debris accumulation has filled the forebay or other pretreatment device within one month, or if no forebay or other pretreatment device is present, has filled greater than 25% of the surface ponding volume within one maintenance cycle. This means the load from the tributary drainage area is too high, reducing BMP function or clogging the BMP.
This would require adding a forebay or other pretreatment measures within the tributary area draining to the BMP to intercept the materials if no pretreatment component is present, or increased maintenance frequency for an existing forebay or other pretreatment device.
Pretreatment components, especially for sediment, will extend the life of the infiltration basin. x Erosion due to concentrated storm water runoff flow that is not readily corrected by adding INF-1 Infiltration Basin
www.sandiegocounty.gov/stormwater E-64 Effective September 15, 2020 erosion control blankets, adding stone at flow entry points, or minor re-grading to restore proper drainage according to the original plan. If the issue is not corrected by restoring the BMP to the original plan and grade, the County reviewer shall be contacted prior to any additional repairs or reconstruction.
Other Special Considerations. If the infiltration basin is vegetated: Vegetated structural BMPs that are constructed in the vicinity of, or connected to, an existing jurisdictional water or wetland could inadvertently result in creation of expanded waters or wetlands. As such, vegetated structural BMPs have the potential to come under the jurisdiction of the United States Army Corps of Engineers, SDRWQCB, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, or the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. This could result in the need for specific resource agency permits and costly mitigation to perform maintenance of the structural BMP. Along with proper placement of a structural BMP, routine maintenance is key to preventing this scenario
.
INF-1 Infiltration Basin
www.sandiegocounty.gov/stormwater E-65 Effective September 15, 2020 Summary of Standard Inspection and Maintenance The property owner is responsible to ensure inspection, operation and maintenance of permanent BMPs on their property unless responsibility has been formally transferred to an agency, community facilities district, homeowners association, property owners association, or other special district. Maintenance frequencies listed in this table are average/typical frequencies. Actual maintenance needs are site-specific, and maintenance may be required more frequently. Maintenance must be performed whenever needed, based on maintenance indicators presented in this table. The BMP owner is responsible for conducting regular inspections to see when maintenance is needed based on the maintenance indicators.
During the first year of operation of a structural BMP, inspection is recommended at least once prior to August 31 and then monthly from September through May. Inspection during a storm event is also recommended. After the initial period of frequent inspections, the minimum inspection and maintenance frequency can be determined based on the results of the first year inspections.
Threshold/Indicator Maintenance Action Inspection and Maintenance Frequency Accumulation of sediment, litter, or debris in forebay and/or basin Remove and properly dispose of accumulated materials, (without damage to vegetation when applicable). x Inspect monthly. If the forebay is 25% full*
or more in one month, increase inspection frequency to monthly plus after every 0.1-inch or larger storm event. xRemove any accumulated materials found
within the infiltration area at each
inspection.
xWhen the BMP includes a forebay,
materials must be removed from the forebay when the forebay is 25% full*, or if accumulation within the forebay blocks flow to the infiltration area.
Obstructed inlet or outlet structure Clear blockage. x Inspect monthly and after every 0.5-inch or larger storm event.
xRemove any accumulated materials found

For subsurface infiltration galleries, ensure access covers are tight fitting, with gaps or holes no greater than 1/16 inch, and/or install barriers such as inserts or screens that prevent mosquito access to the subsurface storage. If mosquitos persist following corrective measures to remove standing water, or if the BMP design does not meet the 96-hour drawdown criteria because the underlying native soils have been compacted or do not have the infiltration capacity expected, the
County reviewer shall be contacted to
determine a solution. A different BMP type, or a Vector Management Plan prepared with concurrence from the County of San Diego Department of Environmental Health, may be required.
x Inspect monthly and after every 0.5-inch or

CHAPTER 1 - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.1 – Introduction
The Pico Place residential project site is located adjacent to Pico Avenue in the City of San Marcos, California.
Runoff from the proposed site will drain to a single point of discharge from the project site, the existing storm drain system located with the adjacent Pico Avenue to the eastern boundary of the site.
This study analyzes existing and developed condition 100-year peak flowrates from the development to the existing point of discharge.
The project site lies outside any FEMA 100-year floodplain zones. Therefore, no Letters of Map Revision will be required.
Treatment of storm water runoff from the site has been addressed in a separate report - the “Storm Water Quality Management Plan for Pico Place”, dated April 2023 by REC.
Per County of San Diego drainage criteria, the Modified Rational Method should be used to determine peak design flowrates when the contributing drainage area is less than 1.0 square mile. Since the total watershed area discharging from the site is less than 1.0 square mile, AES computer software was used to model the pre & post developed condition runoff response per the Modified Rational Method.
Methodology used for the computation of design rainfall events, hydrographs, runoff coefficients, and rainfall intensity values are consistent with criteria set forth in the “County of San Diego Drainage Design Manual”. A more detailed explanation of methodology used for this analysis is listed in Chapter 2 of this report.
Hydraulic Modified-Puls detention basin routing of the aforementioned modified rational method hydrology was performed using the Army Corps of Engineers HEC-HMS software. Hydrographs were generated using the RatHydro program developed by Rick Engineering Company.
1.2 – Summary of Existing Conditions
In existing conditions, the Pico Place project site is a developed residential lot featuring a single residential structure including several paved surface areas with an adjoining undeveloped lot to the north that is sparsely vegetated. An exhibit is provided on the following page to illustrate the existing impervious condition of the site accordingly.
Pico Place
TM Drainage Study
Runoff from the existing site flows overland to two (2) points of discharge; POC-1, an existing RCP storm drain located at the eastern boundary of the project site within Pico Avenue and POC-2, the westerly boundary of the site.
Per County of San Diego rainfall isopluvial maps, the design 100-year rainfall depth for the project site is 3.4 inches. The project site comprises of hydrologic soil class C soils such that runoff coefficients of 0.75 and 0.34 were used for the tributaries to POC-1 and POC-2 respectively (see weighted runoff calculations in Chapter 4). Table 1 summarizes the existing condition design 100-year peak flow from the project site.

1.3 – Summary of Developed Conditions
The Pico Place project proposes the construction of multi- family residences, inclusive of a servicing drive and associated landscaping. Runoff from the project is drained to one (1) receiving multiple purpose water quality/HMP/Q100 detention vault. Detained flows are drained from the BMP facility and discharged to the existing storm drain system within the adjacent Pico Avenue.
Per County of San Diego rainfall isopluvial maps, the design 100-year rainfall depth for the project site is 3.4 inches. The project site comprises of hydrologic soil class C soils such that a runoff coefficient of 0.75 was used for the proposed residential (see weighted runoff calculations in Chapter 4). Table 2 summarizes the developed condition design 100-year peak flow from the project site.

Prior to discharging from the project site, first flush runoff will be treated via an onsite filtration BMP in accordance with standards set forth by the Regional Water Quality Control Board and the City of San Marcos’ BMP Design Manual (see “Storm Water Quality Management Plan for Pico Place”).
Peak developed flows from the project site are conveyed to one (1) onsite detention facility prior to discharging to the existing storm drain system. The vault system is approximately 9-feet deep with a width of 9-feet and length of 54-feet. Due to the limited grade on the project site and utility constraints, the vault is to be located several feet below the existing storm drain invert in Pico Avenue such that the vault can only be drained via the use of pumps. Due to HMP criteria, two (2) separate pumps will be employed on the project site, a low flow pump outlet will be located at 3.0 feet from the bottom of the basin invert while the peak Q100 flow pump will be located at 7.25 feet from the basin invert. In an extreme event, flows will outlet via the surface private drive to Pico Avenue without risk of flooding the residential structures and also providing single vehicular lane access.
The developed condition peak flows calculated using modified rational method was then routed through the detention facility on the project site in HEC-HMS. The HMS Modified-Puls results are summarized in Table 3.

Input hydrographs for the HMS analysis were generated using the RatHydro program developed by Rick Engineering Company and are provided Chapter 3 of this report.
Rational method hydrographs, stage-storage, stage-discharge relationships and HECHMS model output is provided in Chapter 3 of this report.
There is an existing Day Care site located adjacent to the western boundary of the project site. This small 0.068 Ac tributary of 0.5 cfs offsite run-on will be intercepted by a proposed storm drain system that will convey these flows through the project site such that they do not comingle with onsite flows. As these flows are generated by a neighboring site, this run-on is not required to be treated or detained within the proposed project site.
A proposed 12-inch RCP will be constructed within the adjacent Pico Avenue conveying the project and offsite flows in a northerly direction, ultimately converging with an existing 15-inch RCP storm drain. A hydraulic analysis has been undertaken with Chapter 4 of this report demonstrating that the existing 15-inch storm drain has capacity to safely convey these flows. A conservative outlet tailwater condition assumed the top of pipe of the 15-inch downstream for this analysis.
1.4 – Summary of Results
Table 4 summarizes developed and existing condition drainage areas and resultant 100-year peak flow rates at the receiving discharge location from the Pico Place Development site. Per County of San Diego rainfall isopluvial maps, the design 100- year rainfall depth for the site area is 3.4 inches.

As illustrated in Table 4, the proposed Pico Place project site will result in a net decrease of peak flows discharged from the project site by approximately 0.07 cfs at POC-1 while fully removing flows tributary to the western boundary location (POC-2), thus the project has no net impact to the receiving watershed. All developed runoff will receive water quality treatment in accordance with the site specific SWQMP.
Total runoff tributary to the Pico Avenue 15-inch storm drain increases from 1.57 cfs to
1.8 cfs due to the interception of runoff from the adjacent property site that previously discharged to the western point of discharge. The hydraulic analysis prepared in Chapter 4 of this report demonstrates that this 0.23 cfs increase does not negatively impact this existing storm drains capacity to convey peak flow.
Final design details will be provided at the final engineering phase of the development.
1.5 – Conclusions
This report has been prepared in accordance with the County of San Diego Hydrology Manual. This report has evaluated and addressed the potential impacts and proposed mitigation measures. A summary of the facts and findings associated with this project and the measures addressed by this report is as follows:
● The project will not alter drainage patterns on the site or increase runoff after development.
● The ultimate discharge points will not be changed.
● Graded areas and slopes will be hydroseeded to reduce or eliminate sediment discharge.
● Identify and discuss, with appropriate backup/research information, the following question item by item for CEQA purposes. Would the project:
A. Substantially alter the existing drainage patterns of the site or area, including through the alteration if the course of a stream or river, in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on – or off-site?
The project does not substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the area and does not alter the course of a stream or river.
The storm drain system for the entire project is designed to route and convey all resulting runoff from developed conditions to existing point of discharge.
B. Substantially alter the existing drainage patterns of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner which would result in flooding on- or off-site? Pico Place
TM Drainage Study
The project will not substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the area as it will not alter the course of a stream or river, and also will not substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner which would result in on- or off-site flooding.
C. Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems?
No. The project drains directly to the existing storm drain system and does not increase flows to existing storm water drainage systems.
D. Place housing within a 100-year flood hazard area as mapped on a federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map, including County Floodplain Maps? For example; research the foregoing and provide same (to indicate applicability or not) in the study?
The project does not place any structure within a 100-year flood hazard area.
E. Place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures which would impede or redirect flood flows?
There are no structures proposed within a 100-year flood hazard area.
F. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam on-sit or off-site? NA

Re: Name: Pico Apartments
Type of Project: Planned DevelopmentDeveloper: Anthony Sfreddo for Pico Investments 7, LLC Cross Streets: Mission Rd and Pico Avenue
No. of Units/Lots: 16
To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is to provide comments from San Marcos Unified School District (District) for the PicoApartments (Project). The Project resides entirely within the District attendance area and the Project’s students will be served by the District.
However, as the District makes known to all potential developments being planned within the District, most of the District’s existing schools are over capacity based on 2018-19 capacityutilization. Additional residential development projects approved or proposed throughout the District’s attendance boundary are projected to add to the current overcrowding for many yearsinto the future.
The Project area is currently served by the following schools:
School Grade Level Distance
San Marcos Elementary K-S .5 Miles
Woodland Park Middle 6-8 2.5 Miles
Mission Hills High School 9-12 1.5 Miles
With regard to the potential facilities which might serve the Project, there are currently no plans for facility improvements, renovations, or additions at San Marcos Elementary, Woodland Park Middle or Mission Hills High School. In addition, the District has no current plans for newelementary, middle, or high schools within the Project area.
While the District has established various programs to levy and collect developer fees, as authorized by State statue and local ordinances such fees are not sufficient to fully mitigate the Governing Board: Sarah Ahmad Stacy Carison Jaime Chamberlin Andrës Martin Carlos Ulloa, Ed. D.
Andrew S. Johnsen. Ed,D.. Superintendent
substantial costs of the acquisition and/or construction of new/additional school facilities to accommodate the increased enrollment associated with new residential development such as theProject.
Accordingly, the District attempts to engage with all new residential developments in a fair and equitable manner by seeking to enter into one or more mutually agreeable school facilitiesmitigation type agreements that would allow developers to demonstrate adequate mitigation ofthe individual developments potential impact on the District’s school facilities. Such agreements mayinclude the formation of a Community Facilities District (CFD) comparable to other similar CFDs for similar development which would help potential cost impacts to providing adequate classrooms and core facilities necessary for the students that will be generated by the Project. The developermay also have the option of annexing into an existing CFD. The District is also open to discussionother mitigation options/ideas proposed by the developer.
The District looks forward to working with you on the Project. Should you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Erin Garcia

in the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
(IS/MND) and appreciates receiving notification of the
availability of the Pico Avenue Residential Project’s
(project’s) documents. The City of San Marcos (City)
appreciates the San Diego County Archaeological

Comment Letter 2: California Department of Transportation, August 22, 2023 2-1: This comment discusses the California Department of Transportation’s (Caltrans’) mission, goals, and priorities and states that Caltrans looks forward to working with the City of San Marcos (City) in areas of joint jurisdiction.
The City appreciates Caltrans’ review of the Initial
Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND). This
comment does not raise a significant environmental issue regarding the adequacy or accuracy of information
provided in the IS/MND. Therefore, no further response
is required.
IS/MND RTC-2-2 August 2023
Pico Avenue Residential Project
2-2: This comment states that Caltrans supports enhancements that promote a complete and integrated transportation
network and that bicycle, pedestrian, and public transit access during construction should be maintained in
accordance with Caltrans’ goals and policies to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions. This comment further states
that bicycle, pedestrian, and public transit access during construction is important. As discussed in IS/MND
Section 2.4.17, Transportation, the Pico Avenue
Residential Project (project) is within a half-mile of a major transit stop, including the bus and light-rail system, and would improve pedestrian access to the transit
system. The project would improve the sidewalk on Pico
Avenue along the project frontage to increase pedestrian connections to off-site areas. Development of the project site would allow future residents to walk or bike to
adjacent retail stores and restaurants. During short-term construction activities, the project is not anticipated to result in any substantial traffic queuing on nearby streets, and all construction equipment would be staged on or
directly adjacent to the project site to not hinder access. 2-3: This comment states that Caltrans has some discretionary authority over a portion of the project that is proposed in a Caltrans right-of-way (ROW) and asks for a meeting to discuss the elements of the environmental document that Caltrans will use for subsequent environmental
compliance. This comment also states that an
encroachment permit will be required for any work within a Caltrans ROW before construction and that approved
IS/MND RTC-2-3 August 2023
Pico Avenue Residential Project
final environmental documentation for the project must
be provided. This comment also states that Caltrans is
interested in any additional mitigation measures
identified for the IS/MND. The City concurs that Caltrans has authority over its ROW. However, the ROW Caltrans
is referring to is State Route 78, which is approximately
0.3 mile south of the project site. Regarding
encroachment permits, as discussed in the IS/MND, the
project does not propose any off-site improvements and
would not encroach into Caltrans’ ROW. Regarding
Caltrans’ request for consideration of additional
mitigation measures, as demonstrated in IS/MND Section
2.4.17, all traffic impacts from the project have been
determined to be less than significant, and no mitigation measures would be required.
2-4: This comment provides background information related to land use and Smart Growth, discussing how the pattern of land use can affect local vehicle miles traveled and the number of trips. The comment further states that the City should continue to coordinate with Caltrans to implement necessary transportation improvements. The City will
continue to coordinate with Caltrans on improvements in areas of joint jurisdiction. This comment does not raise a significant environmental issue regarding the adequacy
or accuracy of information provided in the IS/MND.
Therefore, no further response is required.
2-5: This comment discusses the benefits of teleworking in reducing the number of vehicle miles traveled and the
amount of greenhouse gas emissions and the importance
IS/MND RTC-2-4 August 2023
Pico Avenue Residential Project
of the availability of reliable broadband. This comment further provides contact information for the commenter.
This is a closing comment and does not raise a significant environmental issue regarding the adequacy or accuracy
of information provided in the IS/MND. Therefore, no
further response is required.
