...iNG & PLANNING
Previously l submitted an application for Exemption from Subdivision for Buck Deane.
In subsequent discussions with Tamara, she pointed out that we could either process
floodplain special use permits simultaneously with the exemption application or process
the exemption with the ultimate approval including a condition that floodplain special
use permits be processed prior to any building permit being issued for the new lots.
Buck decided to process the special use permits with the exemption and Tamara
indicated she could put the exemption process on hold until we submitted the special
use application.
Attached herewith are three copies of the Floodplain Special Use Permit Application
with supplemental engineering data, an Agreement to Pay form, an authorization letter
and a check for the special use permit process. l am assuming that the exemption
application can be considered to provide all the generic information required for the
special use permit. Please review the special use permit application for technical
compliance. I do not recall if Tamara had reviewed the exemption application for
technical compliance or not but I do not see a letter from her in my job file.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate contact me.

GARFIELD COUNTY BUILDING AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT
AGREEMENT FOR PAYMENT FORM
(Shall be submitted with application)
GARFIELD COUNTY (hereinafter COUNTY) and Doane H. Deane (hereinafter APPLICANT)
agree as follows:
1. APPLICANT has submitted to COUNTY an application for Floodplain Special Use
Permit, three lots (hereinafter, THE PROJECT).
2. APPLICANT understands and agrees that Garfield County Resolution No. 98-09, as
amended, establishes a fee schedule for each type of subdivision or land use review applications,
and the guidelines for the administration of the fee structure.
3. APPLICANT and COUNTY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the
proposed project, it is not possible at this time to ascertain the full extent of the costs involved in
processing the application. APPLICANT agrees to make payment of the Base Fee, established for
the PROJECT, and to thereafter permit additional costs to be billed to APPLICANT. APPLICANT
agrees to make additional payments upon notification by the COUNTY when they are necessary as
costs are incurred.
4. The Base Fee shall be in addition to and exclusive of any cost for publication or cost of
consulting service determined necessary by the Board of County Commissioners for the
consideration of an application or additional COUNTY staff time or expense not covered by the Base
Fee. If actual recorded costs exceed the initial Base Fee, APPLICANT shall pay additional billings to
COUNTY to reimburse the COUNTY for the processing of the PROJECT mentioned above.
APPLICANT acknowledges that all billing shall be paid prior to the final consideration by the
COUNTY of any land use permit, zoning amendment, or subdivision plan.

Re: Buck Deane Special Use Permit
HCE No. 2031650.00
Dear Mark:
The purpose of this letter is to address the requirements for a Special Use Permit for
construction of residences in a FEMA regulated floodplain.
The Roaring Fork River flows along the northern portion of the property. The floodplain and
floodway have been previously mapped by FEMA (See attached Exhibits). Reviewing the
available information indicates that the proposed lots will require the placement of fill
material within the floodplain limits but will not impact the floodway. As shown on the
special use permit site plan, the building envelopes for all three lots are shown outside the
floodway but within portions of the 100 -year floodplain. Construction within the floodplain
requires the minimum finished floor elevation be at least 1 -foot above the floodplain
elevation. The minimum finished floors for Lots 2, 3 and 4 are 6176, 6180 and 6184
respectfully. Upon completion of construction, a floodplain elevation certificate will be
completed and submitted to Garfield County to verify construction above the floodplain
elevation. Impacts to the Roaring Fork River and topography from the development of this
property will be minimized by the use of onsite drainage facilities to mitigate water quality in
the post -development runoff from the site. Necessary measures will be taken during
construction to mitigate erosion and sediment -laden runoff.
HCE has checked the sizing and location of the proposed ISDS mound systems, and we can
confirm that the 7,000 sf area provided is adequate for installation of a mound system leach
field based on a four bedroom home with a loading of approximately 1000 gallons per day.
The location of the system for Lot 2 is located in FEMA designated Zone C, which is an area
of minimal flooding greater than the 500 year flood event and has no significant design
constraints. The location of the systems for Lots 3 & 4 are located in FEMA designated
Zone A and the ISDS system should be designed so that the infiltrator surface is located a
minimum of 1 foot above the 100 -year flood elevation. The minimum elevation of the
infiltrator surface on Lot 3 and 4 shall be 6183 and 6186 respectfully, to ensure that both
ISDS systems are a minimum of 1 foot above the 100 -year flood elevation.

Dear Mr. Jarman:
We are responding to your written request for comment on the
Deane Exemption and Floodplain SUP for Lots 2, 3 and 4, received
on January 20, 2004. The project site is located at the Roaring
Fork River near the Town of Carbondale, within the NE1/4 of
Section 34, Township 7 South, Range 88 West, Garfield County,
Colorado.
In accordance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, a
Department of the Army permit is required for any discharge
(including mechanized land clearing) of dredged or fill material
in waters of the United States. Within the context of Section
404, "waters of the United States" are defined as the territorial
seas; perennial and ephemeral streams; lakes, ponds,
impoundments; and wetlands. Federal law requires that any
individual or entity proposing to discharge into waters of the
United States obtain a Department of the Army permit prior to
commencing such work.
We have assigned number 200475042 to this project. Please
refer to this number if a Department of the Army permit is
required on this development project for the wetland areas
depicted within Lots 2 and 3. If you have any questions, please
write to Mr. Mark Gilfillan of this office, telephone (970)
243-1199, extension 15 or email mark.a.gilfillan@usace.army.mil.

Dear Mr. Jarman:
We are responding to your written request for comment on the
Deane Exemption and Floodplain SUP for Lots 2, 3 and 4, received
on January 20, 2004. The project site is located at the Roaring
Fork River near the Town of Carbondale, within the NE1/4 of
Section 34, Township 7 South, Range 88 West, Garfield County,
Colorado.
In accordance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, a
Department of the Army permit is required for any discharge
(including mechanized land clearing) of dredged or fill material
in waters of the United States. Within the context of Section
404, "waters of the United States" are defined as the territorial
seas; perennial and ephemeral streams; lakes, ponds,
impoundments; and wetlands. Federal law requires that any
individual or entity proposing to discharge into waters of the
United States obtain a Department of the Army permit prior to
commencing such work.
We have assigned number 200475042 to this project. Please
refer to this number if a Department of the Army permit is
required on this development project for the wetland areas
depicted within Lots 2 and 3. If you have any questions, please
write to Mr. Mark Gilfillan of this office, telephone (970)
243-1199, extension 15 or email mark.a.gilfillan@usace.army.mil.
