RE: Water/Sewer Letter Report — Faclen — West Ave Site Plan
Dear Mr. Torpey:
The Faden — West Ave Site Plan project proposes a 4-story mixed -use building containing retail space, an
eating and drinking establishment, and multifamily rental units. The project is located on the northwest
corner of West Avenue and Station Lane in the City of Saratoga Springs, New York. The proposed project
includes the 23,597 SF footprint building, indoor basement level parking and outdoor parking behind the
building, landscaping, an outdoor eating area, and a public civic space along the north side of Station Lane.
The project parcel encompasses approximately 2.00 acres, and the tax map identification number is 165.-2-
76.2. This letter/report describes the water use and wastewater generation for the proposed development.
Public water service and sanitary sewer services are proposed to be provided by the City of Saratoga Springs
Department of Public Works.
WASTEWATER DEMANDS
The wastewater generated by the proposed development has been calculated based on the separate uses
within the building. Wastewater generated by the proposed retail space has been calculated based on 0.1
gallons per day (gpd) per square foot per the "New York State Design Standard for Intermediate Sized
Wastewater Treatment Systems". Wastewater generated by the residential development has been
calculated based on the 10 State Standards of 100 gallons per capita per day (gpcpd) with an estimated
population density of 2.0 residents per dwelling unit. The Average Daily Wastewater Flows and Peak Hour
Wastewater Flows generated from the proposed development are 13,533 gpd and 39.28 gpm, respectively.
A detailed outline of the wastewater flow calculations are as follows:
West Ave —Site Plan, & Special Use Permit— Development consists of approximately 6,915 SF of retail, a
2,600 SF restaurant with approximately 60 seats, and 68 multifamily units.
Detail Space:
Proposed 6,915 SF Retail Space = (6,915 sf) x (0.1 gpd/sf) = 692 gpd
Design Average Daily Wastewater Flow = Total Wastewater Flow with 20% reduction for water
saving measures
= 692 gpd x 80%
= 553 gpd
Equivalent Population = 553 gpd / 100 gpcpd = 6 people
Page 2
Restaurant Space:
Restaurant = (60 seats) x (35 gpd/seat) = 2,100 gpd
= 2,100 gpd
Equivalent Population = Estimated to be 2,100 gpd/100 gpcpd = 21 people
Multifamily Units:
Population = (68 units) x (2.0 residents/unit) = 136 persons
Design Average Daily Wastewater Flow = (136 persons) x 100gpcpd with 20% reduction for water
saving measures
= 13,600 gpd x 80%
= 10,880 gpd
Total Design Average Daily Wastewater Flow = 553 gpd + 2,100 gpd +
10,880 gpd = 13,533 gpd
Total Population = 6 + 21 + 136 = 163 persons
Peak Hour Factor (P = population in thousands)
=18+P"'=18+0.1631"= 4.18
(4 + Pl/z) (4 + 0.1631/2)
PHF = 4.18
Cumulative Peak Hour Wastewater Flow
= (Average Daily Wastewater Flow) x (Peak Hour Factor)
= (13,533 gpd) x (4.18)
= 56,569 gpd
= 39.28 gpm (calculated design flow, required flow)
Pipe Size Required — Based on Manning's formula using an "n" value of 0.013 for PVC and using
the cumulative peak hour waste hour flow calculated above
n (Calculated design capacity and velocity)
Trial Pipe size = 6"
Pipe Slope = 0.02 ft/ft minimum
Full Velocity = 4.05fps
Full Capacity = 0.80 cfs = 357.08 gpm
357 gpm (design capacity) > 39.28 gpm (required capacity)
Therefore Use 6" Diameter Pipe for all Gravity Service Laterals
Wastewater flows from the proposed development will be collected on site and conveyed via gravity
piping to the existing public sewer main along Station Lane and ultimately to the existing pump station
on Station Lane immediately adjacent to the project site.
Page 3
The existing pump station on Station Lane has been identified to have capacity deficiencies. These
deficiencies were outlined in the Engineer's Report prepared by Bergmann Associates dated August 16,
2017 for the Station Park Project that was previously proposed to the west of the proposed Faden -
West Ave project. This report identified four potential projects within the area that would contribute to
the existing pump station and cause capacity issues. The 4 projects included the Station Park Project,
Askew Apartments, Intrada Development and the Faden — West Ave project. At that time, the
anticipated flows that were included within the Bergmann Associates report for the Faden — West Ave
project were as follows:
Average Daily Wastewater Flow = 18,393 gpd
Cumulative Peak Hour Wastewater Flow = 52 gpm
Currently proposed for the Faden — West Ave project are as follow:
Average Daily Wastewater Flow = 13,533 gpd
Cumulative Peak Hour Wastewater Flow = 39.28gpm
13,533 gpd (currently proposed) < 18,393 gpd (Bergmann Associates report)
39.28 gpm (currently proposed) < 52 gpm (Bergmann Associates report)
The Bergmann Associates report proposed upgrades to the existing pump station with each project
contributing to the cost of the upgrades. The Station Park project did not advance while the remaining
three projects continued. Most notably, the Intrada Development advanced through approvals and
construction first. As a part of their approvals and construction they reevaluated the pumps station
improvements with the elimination of the Station Park project, and they were required to fund and
perform the improvements to the pump station as a part of their construction. Both the Askew
Apartments and the Faden — West Ave project are aware of the improvements that were required for
the Intrada Development and have agreed to provide cost sharing proportionate to the contributing
flows. Based on the above it is expected that the existing and proposed sanitary system has adequate
capacity to collect and convey the anticipated flow and that the project will not have an adverse impact
on the existing system.
WATER DEMANDS
The water usage rates have been calculated for the 68 residential multifamily units based on the 10 State
Standards of 100 gpdpc, with an anticipated population of 2.0 residents per unit. Water usage rates for the
6,915 sf of retail space is based on 0.1 gpd/SF per the "New York State Design Standard for Intermediate
Sized Wastewater Treatment Systems". The Average Day, Max Day, and Peak Hour Water usage rates usage
for the site have been calculated to be 13,533 gpd, 22,330 gpd, and 42.29 gpm, respectively. A detailed
outline of the water demand calculations are as follows:
Retail Space:
Retail = 6,915 SF x 0.1 gpd/sf = 692 gpd
Water Demand Average Day with 20% water reduction for water saving fixtures:
= 692 gpd x 80%
= 553 gpd
Multifamily Units:
Page 4
Population = (68 units) x (2.0 residents/unit) = 136 persons
Design Average Daily Wastewater Flow = (136) x 100 gpcpd x 20% reduction for water saving
measures
=13,600 gpd x 80%
=10,880 gpd
Restaurant Space:
Restaurant = (60 seats) x (35 gpd/seat) = 2,100 gpd
= 2,100 gpd
Total = 553 gpd + 10,880 gpd + 2,100 gpd= 13,533 gpd
Water Demand Rates Based on National Avera e
Average Day = 100% of average daily demand rate
Max Day = 165% of average daily demand rate
Max Hour = 450% of average daily demand rate
Water Demand For Service Area
Average Day = (100%) x (13,533 gpd) = 13,533 gpd = 9.40 gpm
Max Day = (165%) x (13,533 gpd) = 22,330 gpd = 15.51 gpm
Max Hour = (450%) x (13,533 gpd) = 60,899 gpd = 42.29 gpm
The water service connection to the City of Saratoga Springs Public Works water system will provide the
domestic and fire protection needs of the proposed development. The proposed buildings will have
automatic sprinkler systems. The project proposes one dual domestic and fire protection 6" DIP connection
into the existing 8" DIP located along the west side of West Avenue. The connection shall utilize a tapping
sleeve and valve to prevent disruption to the water supply during construction. The proposed water system
is shown in the attached plan set.
The estimated water usage and wastewater flows for the Faden — West Ave Site Plan are within the available
capacity the water and wastewater systems in the area. The project applicant has agreed to participate and
contribute to the local sanitary sewer improvements that will improve the existing systems. Therefore, it is
expected that the connection of the water and sanitary systems will not have an adverse impact on the
existing utilities.
