Storm Water Best Management Practices, Operations and Maintenance Plan
614 W. North Street, Aspen, CO 81611
Description
The stormwater installed at 614 W. North Street meets the requirements of The City of Aspen
Engineering Department. It is comprised of one system, “Storm System A”, which eventually converge at
a single five-foot diameter drywell. This drywell is ten feet deep with five feet of perforations to allow
for infiltration below grade. Storm System A surrounds the remodeled structure to collect all impervious
areas, as well as any drainage routed towards the structure. Storm System A utilizes downspouts to
capture runoff from the roof structure, trench drains to collect runoff from the driveway and impervious
patios, and area drains to collect impervious patios and landscaped areas. All collected runoff for Storm
System A is routed to Drywell A, which is sized for full detention (see sheet C-103 of the construction
documents for the storm system layout). This drywell Is located in the front of the site (southwest
corner of the property). Storm System A is entirely designed to capture, convey, and detain runoff for a
100-year storm event. There is no overflow for the drywell, which makes maintenance important for
longevity of the drainage system.
Drywell
The drywell must be inspected and maintained quarterly to remove sediment and debris that has
washed into them. Minimum inspection and maintenance requirements include the following:
• Inspect drywells at least four times a year and after every storm exceeding 0.5 inches.
• Dispose of sediment, debris/trash, and any other waste material removed from a drywell at suitable
disposal sites and in compliance with local, State, and Federal waste regulations.
• Routinely evaluate the drain-down time of the drywell to ensure the maximum time of 24 hours is
not being exceeded. If drain-down times are exceeding the maximum, drain the drywell via
pumping and clean out the percolation area (the percolation barrel may be jetted to remove
sediment accumulated in perforations. If slow drainage persists, the system may need to be
replaced.
Trench Drain
Trench drains must be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent clogging and debris from travelling
further into the system. Routinely keep drain grates and surrounding patios clean and free of leaves,
dirt, and other debris. This will prevent clogging and damage to the storm infrastructure. Inspect drain
sumps quarterly and after every storm exceeding 0.5 inches, remove excess sediment and debris buildup
from the catch basin. Inspect system for damage to the concrete and the grate. Inspect all grouted seams
and cracks. If cracks are smaller than ½”, record information and continue inspection regularly. If cracks

are larger than ½”, regrout and repair to prevent further damage. If grate is damaged, repair or replace
as necessary.
Pervious Paver Area
As per section 8.5.3.1 of the URMP, the following schedule will be undertaken by the owners of the
property to achieve long term performance of the BMP’s.
