(Please reference the above number on any submittal.)
Dear Mr. Jansen:
The staff has reviewed your response to the District's Request for Additional Information
(RAI) letter. Unfortunately the following technical information is lacking to sufficiently review
the possible impacts the project may have on the surrounding area. This information is
again being requested pursuant to the authority vested in the St. Johns River Water
Management district under subsection 373.413(2), Florida Statutes (F.S.), and sections
40C -4.101 and 40C- 4.301, Florida Administrati ✓e Code (F.A_C.).
In order to expedite the review of your application, please use the application number
referenced above on all correspondence, and submit three (3) copies of all requested
information unless otherwise indicated by a specific information request.
It has been determined that the proposed stormwater pond adjacent to
the existing wetland and wetland area to be restored will have a
drawdown effect on the wetland. Please be advised that this is
considered a wetland impact. Please demonstrate that the wetland
hydrology will not be impacted or provide additional mitigation. [section
12.2.2.4,12.2-7, A.H.]
Roadside ditch /underdrain s stem general comments:
1. Please show the proposed elevation of the ditch bottom on the plan and
profiles. Show the underdrain in the pavement cross- section and note
where applicable. [40C -4.301 (1) F.A.G.]
2. Please provide justification for the permeability rate of 1 ft/hr used in the
underdrain calculations. The geotechnical report indicates k values in
the range of 1.33 -1.35 ft/day. [40C- 42.026 (2) F.A.C.]

1. What is to prevent the roadside ditch from outfalling to the Roseland
Road swale? [40C -4.301 (1) F.A.C.]
2. The inverts of CO -1 and CO -2 are shown to be at elevation 10.35 feet.
The cross- section indicates the depth from the bottom of the ditch to the
invert of the pipe to be 2.58 feet (2' native soil + 3" gravel + 4" pipe). This
would dictate an invert at elevation 9.77 feet. [40C- 42.026 (2) F.A.C.]
3. The ditch block is called out at elevation 14.0 feet on sheet C5.1,
however; the treatment volume is retained at elevation 12.65 feet per the
stage storage chart and the underdrain calculations are based on the
ditch block at elevation 12.65 feet. Please clarify. [40C- 42.026 (2) F.A.C.]
Section 20 +50 to 26 +50:
1. Please show the stations on the bottom of the profile on sheet C5.2 and
the location of the cross culverts in the profile. [40C -4.301 (1) F.A.C.]
2. The inverts of CO -3 and CO -4 are shown to be at elevation 8.50 feet. The
cross - section indicates the depth from the bottom of the Glitch to the
invert of the pipe to be 2.58 feet (2' native soil + 3" gravel + 4" pipe). This
would dictate an invert at elevation 7.92 feet. [40C- 42.026 (2) F.A.C.]
3. Sheet C2.1 shows MES 7 and MES 8 at an invert elevation of 9.50 feet,
however; the ditch bottom is indicated at elevation 10.5 feet. Please
clarify. [40C -4.301 (1) F.A.C.]
4. Inlet H -1 (existing type "H" inlet) has a grate elevation of 10.5 feet. Is this
grate to be adjusted? If not, how will the treatment volume in this
section be retained? [40C- 42.026 (2) F.A.C.]
Section 60 +00 to 66 +40:
1. Please show the Swale contours and elevations on the plan view. [40C-
4.301 (1) F.A.C.]
2. The inverts of CO -5 and CO -6 are shown to be at elevation 14.8 feet. The
cross - section indicates the depth from the bottom of the ditch to the
invert of the pipe to be 2.58 feet (2' native soil' + 3" gravel + 4" pipe). This
would dictate an invert at elevation 12.22 feet. [40C- 42.026 (2) F.A.C.]
Section 72 +00 to 77 +92:
Please show the swale contours and elevations on the plan view. [40C-
4.301 (1) F.A.C.]
2. The inverts of CO -7 and CO -8 are shown to be at elevation 14.28 feet.
The cross- section indicates the depth from the bottom of the ditch to the
invert of the pipe to be 2.58 feet (2" native soil + 3" gravel + 4" pipe). This
would dictate an invert at elevation 13.70 feet. [40C- 42.026 (2) F.A.C.]
3. The "UNDER DRAIN DESIGN OF THE TREATMENT FACILITY" page is
missing for this section of roadway, please include. [40C- 42.026 (2)
