Ordinance -- Page 7 of 9 <br />500 sq. feet or less and does not gravity-feed into the selected treatment facility. <br />(f) All stormwater quality facilities shall be sited, designed and constructed according to <br />the water quality provisions and the facility design requirements set forth in the Stormwater <br />Management Manual. <br />(gd) The standards in EC 9.6792(3)(a) may be adjusted pursuant to EC 9.8030(24). <br />RESPONSE: An adjustment review for deviation in stormwater design seems excessive. An <br />adjustment review is a PUBLIC process that takes ~60-90 days to approve, which is unnecessary <br />for something related to a private stormwater facility. Why can't there be a design exception path <br />for design engineers to speak directly with review engineers in order to provide an expedited path <br />to approval of an alternative design? Why would an alternate stormwater facility design need to be <br />reviewed by anyone other than the review engineer? All stormwater facilities, regardless of design, <br />still must be depicted on site plans, which are reviewed for compliance for all other applicable code <br />criteria by other departments. <br /> <br /> <br />Section 3. Section 9.6793 of the Eugene Code, 1971, is amended to provide as follows: <br /> <br />9.6793 Stormwater – Flow Control (Headwaters). <br /> <br />(1) Purpose. The purpose of EC 9.6793 is to protect waterways in the headwaters area from the <br />erosive eaffects of increases in stormwater runoff peak flow rates and volumes resulting from <br />development. <br /> <br />(2) Applicability and Exemptions. <br /> <br />(a) Except as exempt under EC 9.6793(2)(cb), the standards in EC 9.6793(3) apply to <br />all land use applications for development and development permit applications that <br />propose new or replaced impervious surfaces on sites in the headwaters area that drain <br />directly into a headwater stream or drain into a pipe that discharges into a headwater stream. <br />that are submitted after July 14, 2006 requesting approval of one or more of the following: <br /> <br />1. A cluster subdivision – tentative plan (EC 9.8055); <br /> <br />2. A conditional use (EC 9.8090 or 9.8100); <br /> <br />3. A partition – tentative plan (EC 9.8215 or 9.8220); <br /> <br />4. A planned unit development – tentative plan (EC 9.8320 or 9.8325); <br /> <br />5. Site review (EC 9.8440 or 9.8445); <br /> <br />6. A subdivision tentative plan (EC 9.8515 or 9.8520). <br /> <br />(b) Except as exempt under EC 9.6793(2)(c), the standards in EC 9.6793(3) apply to all <br />applications for development permits for development sites in a headwaters area that drain <br />directly into a headwater stream or drain into a pipe that discharges into a headwater stream <br />that are submitted after July 14, 2006. <br /> <br />(cb) The standards in EC 9.6793(3) do not apply to:
