APPENDIX A – STANDARD DETAILS INDEX
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 1 - General
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 1-1
CHAPTER 1 - GENERAL
1. ENACTING AUTHORITY
These Design and Construction Standards are enacted by the City of Pasco, in accordance with
state law, to protect and preserve the public health, safety, and general welfare, consistent with
Pasco Municipal Code (PMC) 14.10.010.
2. PURPOSE
The purpose of these Design and Construction Standards is to provide consistent requirements,
standards, and specifications for the design and construction of public works infrastructure
improvements by the City and by private developers.
3. STATE ENVIRONMENT POLICY ACT (SEPA)
These Design and Construction Standards will not affect any considerations involving issues
under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). The City’s responsible official will continue to
make all necessary SEPA decisions when individual proposals are submitted.
4. CONFLICTING PROVISIONS
The standards, procedures, and requirements of these Design and Construction Standards are
the minimum necessary to promote the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of the City of
Pasco. The City may adopt more or less rigorous or different standards, procedures, and
requirements whenever necessary. If the provisions of these Design and Construction Standards
conflict with one another, or if a provision of these Design and Construction Standards conflicts
with the provision of the existing City Code, or a previously enacted Ordinance of the City, the
most restrictive provision or the provision imposing the highest standard shall control.
5. SEVERANCE
If any provision of these Design and Construction Standards or its application to any person or
circumstance is for any reason held to be invalid, the remainder of these Design and Construction
Standards or the application of the provisions is not affected.
6. PROCESS
Any project that includes the construction of public infrastructure or represents an impact to public
infrastructure shall comply with the procedures listed in CHAPTER 2 and PMC. Public
infrastructure includes all construction or impact to public streets, water, sanitary sewer, irrigation,
storm drainage, illumination and any other facilities that will be owned, operated and maintained
by the City. Additionally, all projects shall be reviewed by the City for regulating on-site stormwater
runoff.
7. ENGINEERING DESIGN PLAN REQUIREMENTS

Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 1 - General
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 1-2
8. REVIEW AND INSPECTION FEE
Application, plan review, and inspection fees are hereby established to defray the costs incurred
by the City of Pasco, its agents, employees, and elected or appointed officials, for review and
approval of the plans and specifications and for inspection of construction of the public works
improvements. Fees as presented in the PMC and fee schedule as adopted by ordinance shall
include, but not be limited to, application review, plan review, subsequent meetings with the
Developer, explanations to the Developer’s Consultant, reviews of revised plans, construction
inspection, re-inspections, and a final inspection prior to acceptance of the project.
Fee payments shall be made in full by the Developer prior to the City releasin g the approved
original plans and specifications for construction, or the issuance of a Building Permit as described
in CHAPTER 2.
9. RECORD DRAWINGS
The Developer's Consultant shall prepare and maintain a neatly marked, full-sized print set of
record drawings showing the final location and layout of all new construction of the public facilities.
Record drawings shall be supplied to the City of Pasco consistent with Section 1-05.3(1) Project
Record Drawings as presented in CHAPTER 4 of these Construction Standards.
10. TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP
The City Engineer or his designee shall make final inspection of all constructed public
improvements at construction completion. Upon final inspection and approval of all work, the City
Engineer shall provide written certification of completed public improvements including the
method of construction, workmanship, materials, and quality control testing of the improvements.
Public improvements shall be deemed accepted by the City one year from the date of certification
and shall be conveyed to the City at that time. The Developer as the owner is responsible for
operation, maintenance, and repairs of the public improvements within the one-year period.
11. EASEMENTS
Public utility easements shall be established for the location of new and future public
improvements serving new land divisions and land developments. Easements shall also be
granted across the front of new lots and existing lots to provide future utility access as required.
All easements required shall be prepared by the Developer on the proper form and format for
recording at the Franklin County Auditor’s Office. The easement legal description shall be
prepared by a land surveyor licensed in the State of Washington. The easement document shall
be submitted to the Planning Division for review prior to plan approval. Once approved by the
City Engineer, the Developer shall record the executed and notarized easement, and provide
proof of recording to the Planning Division prior to project acceptance.
Easements for new and/or future utility lines shall be a minimum of twenty (20) feet wide, with the
exception of potable water and irrigation which shall be a minimum of fifteen (15) feet wide,
provided the width of easements for buried utilities will be at least twice the depth of the planned
excavation. Where utilities share or lie within a single easement, Department of Health separation
requirements shall apply as appropriate, and the easement width shall extend eight (8) feet
beyond the center of pipe, parallel to the utility.
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 1 - General
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 1-3
Utility easements shall be continuous and aligned from block to block within a subdivision and
with easements in adjoining subdivisions to facilitate the extension and future extension of public
utilities.
12. UTILITY OVERSIZING
In all cases, the City Engineer shall have final determination of the size and depth of water, sewer,
and irrigation mains connected to the City utility system. The determination shall be consistent
with the City’s comprehensive plan and/or the long-range objectives for the associated utility.
For example, if a property owner/developer is required to install a water main with a diameter in
excess of the size necessary to serve their development, and greater than the 8” minimum pipe
size required for all utilities, and if the purpose of such oversizing is to provide for the future needs
of the City, the City may, based upon the conditions established within this policy, reimburse the
property owner/developer for the difference in material and/or labor costs incurred solely by
reason of the oversizing requirement. No such reimbursement shall be made except upon the
following:
• Complete installation of the utility main and approval of the same by the City Engineer;
• Submittal to the City of a bill of sale, warranty, bonding, and proof of insurance for the
utility main in accordance with PMC 12.24.110;
• Certification of the oversizing costs, with such verification from the material supplier and
contractor as the City Engineer may require;
• Approval of the oversizing costs by the City Engineer; and
• Approval of the reimbursement by the City Engineer.
As an alternative to cash reimbursement, the City Engineer may choose to provide a credit, in the
amount of the reimbursement that may otherwise be available, against the corresponding
development charges imposed under PMC 3.35 and 12.24. For example, if a water main is
oversized, a credit may be granted against the water development charge imposed under PMC
13.45, but not the sewer development charge. Said reimbursement or credit shall not be more
than 100% of any and all development charges.
The cost of labor and materials for said oversizing may be reimbursed to the owner/developer by
the City. Materials include pipe, imported trench backfill, and asphalt pavement beyond
trench/surfacing limits required for the development. The labor cost to install the utility oversizing
may be considered when the pipe diameter oversize is greater than 250% different in size than
an 8-inch diameter or the pipe diameter required for the development, whichever is greater. For
example, if an 8” main is required for the development, then a pipe that is more than 20” in
diameter, such as a 24” diameter main, would receive consideration of labor within the calculation
for upsize credit as determined by the City Engineer. Said reimbursement or credit shall not be
more than 100% of any and all development charges.
An oversizing agreement must be executed by the City Manager and Developer prior to plan
approval. A summary of all eligible reimbursable costs and backup itemization must be submitted
to the City Engineer, for review and acceptance, within 45 days o f substantial completion of the
project or phase. Following review of submission, a determination of the total reimbursement
amount will be calculated by the City Engineer and provided to the Developer within 45 days of
submission receipt. Upon concurrence of the calculated amount by the Developer, the City will
provide reimbursement payment within 30 days.

CHAPTER 2 - DEVELOPMENT PROCEDURE
INTRODUCTION
Any project that includes the construction of public infrastructure or represents an impact to public
infrastructure shall comply with the following procedures. Public infrastructure includes all
construction or impact to public streets, water, sanitary sewer, irrigation, storm drainage,
illumination and any other facilities that will be owned, operated, and maintained by the City.
Unless otherwise specifically stated, the term “public improvement” or “public infrastructure” shall
mean any improvement constructed within public right-of-way, or one that will be transferred to
the City following construction, including, but not limited to, sanitary sewer, storm drainage, water,
irrigation, roadway, sidewalk, traffic signals, and street lights. The term "City" shall mean the City
Engineer, or his designated representatives; "Developer" shall mean the actual Owner/Developer
of the proposed development that includes public improvements or his designated Agent; and,
"Consultant" shall mean an individual or firm, licensed to practice Civil Engineering in the State of
Washington, who shall have been retained by the Owner/Developer for the purpose of preparing
the detailed plans and specifications and doing such other engineering work as shall be
specifically identified within the context of these procedures and as approved by the City
Engineer.
Improvements for which these procedures shall typically apply include water, sewer, storm, and
street impacts. Examples include:
Water: Public water mains, water systems, irrigation mains, irrigation systems and their
appurtenances. The required procedures for private, on-site water systems from the City
meter to the building, and for private, on-site irrigation systems are addressed through the
Building Division.
Sanitary Sewer: Public sanitary sewer interceptors, trunks, collectors and their
appurtenances including portions of the building sewers located within the public right-of-
way or public easement. The required procedures for private sanitary sewer service
laterals and appurtenances located outside of the public rights-of-way or public easements
are addressed through the Building Division.
Stormwater: Public stormwater and drain systems and their appurtenances located within
the public right-of-way or public easements, and infrastructure for private, on-site
stormwater systems, located outside the public right-of-way. On-site stormwater system
designs will be reviewed by the City to ensure systems meet the required stormwater
regulations.

Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 2 – Development Procedure
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 2-2
OWNER RESPONSIBILITY
The Owner/Developer shall, if other than himself, name and identify the person who shall be
designated to act on his behalf on matters relating to the project. The Consultant may, at the
Owner/Developer's discretion and direction, be the Agent. The identified person shall be the
single point of contact for the duration of the project.
The Owner/Developer shall retain the services of a Consultant, having the appropriate City of
Pasco business license and licensed to practice Civil Engineering in the State of Washington,
who is qualified to perform the required engineering services to design and construction
stake/survey, as required, of the proposed public improvements. If the project includes installation
of domestic water infrastructure, the Consultant shall comply with the requirements of WAC 246-
290-125.
If, at any time during the project, the Owner/Developer terminates or reduces the level of the
services of the Consultant or the designated Agent as specifically identified and accepted by the
City, the Owner/Developer and Consultant/Agent shall immediately notify the City.
The Owner/Developer has the overall responsibility for project management, construction
management, contract administration, permit acquisition, compliance, testing, and, if required,
right-of-way acquisition. No construction work shall commence prior to a Pre-Construction
Conference and plan approval by the City Engineer.
PLAN REVIEW
The Consultant shall prepare, seal, and submit to the City Planning Division four complete sets
of detailed construction plans, profiles, cross sections, support data, design calculations, project
details, and project specifications as applicable, consistent with PMC 21.35.010. All such plans
and specifications shall be in accordance with the requirements of the most current edition of the
WSDOT Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge, and Municipal Construction, the Manual on
Uniform Traffic Control Devices, the Department of Health Water System Design Manual, the
Department of Ecology Criteria for Sewage Works Design, the Stormwater Management Manual
for Eastern Washington, City of Pasco Standards, and all design of domestic water shall be
compliant with WAC 246-290-200, 220, and 230.
Plans shall be 22”x34” (ANSI D) size for final acceptance. The applicant shall allow a minimum
clear area of 2.5”x2.5” on each plan sheet for final acceptance stamp. The City shall review the
submitted plans and specifications within 30 business days and shall return one reviewed and
noted copy indicating the changes, additions, deletions, or modifications that are required to make
the plans and specifications acceptable. When the revised plans, specifications, and other
materials are resubmitted to the City, the City shall review and upon acceptance, approve the
revised plans and specifications notifying the Consultant of approval and the remainder of the
review and inspection fees to be paid. Review of the revised plans and specifications will be on
a first-come, first-served basis, and a response will be provided to the applicant within 15 business
days. The response will include additional comments or approval notification.
It is the Developer’s responsibility to obtain signatures and dates from all outside utilities within
the City of Pasco indicating that they have reviewed and approved the plans, as required by
CHAPTER 3 of these Construction Standards. The approval from outside utilities must be
received prior to final plan acceptance and plan approval consideration by the City. If significant
changes are required to the plans following the City’s review, after initially receiving outside utility
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 2 – Development Procedure
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 2-3
approval, the owner may be required to reobtain the signature and date of possible impacted
utilities as designated by the City.
Upon acceptance, the City Engineer will approve and sign the plans. Such approved plans and
specifications shall not be changed, modified, or altered without written authorization from the City
Engineer. The Developer shall provide the City with a minimum of five (5) copies of the approved
plan set and specifications for use by City Inspectors and City Departments as required.
CONSTRUCTION
Following selection of a Contractor and prior to construction, the Developer is responsible for
scheduling a pre-construction conference with the City’s Construction Supervisor. Other
jurisdictions, the Developer’s Engineer, Developer’s contractor, utility companies, subcontractors
and other necessary parties to the project shall be present at the preconstruction conference.
The City shall host the Pre-Construction Conference within two weeks of the scheduling request
by the applicant. The Developer’s contractor will submit his insurance and construction schedule
at this conference. Construction may proceed, per the approved schedule, following the
completion of the Pre-Construction Conference, provided all of the necessary documentation has
been submitted and approved.
It is the responsibility of the Owner/Developer to ensure that construction is in conformance with
the approved plans and specifications. The Owner/Developer is ultimately responsible for the
work that is done. The City shall be notified not less than three working days before construction
is to start.
The City of Pasco will assign a construction inspector to the project at the owner/developer's
expense, the cost of which covered by the plan review/inspection fees. In addition to routine
observation, the City inspector will inspect specific elements and milestones during the work. All
tests, inspections, or reviews to be completed by the City shall be scheduled a minimum of two
working days in advance. The City’s inspection will not relieve the Owner/Developer’s liability of
all work being performed in conformance with the approved plans, specifications, and permits.
The Owner/Developer shall independently hire and cover all costs associated with quality
assurance sampling and materials testing by a certified testing company and provide
documentation of the results of the sampling and testing to the City. The requirements for
sampling and testing are contained in the current edition of the WSDOT Standard Specifications
for Road, Bridge and Municipal Construction, and these City of Pasco Construction Standards.
The Owner/Developer, or his assigned Agent, shall administer, manage, and supervise the
construction and will be readily available to approve design changes, when necessary. The
Contractor shall have a representative with authority on site whenever work is being performed.
Any problems that are encountered or changes required due to construction conditions will be
reviewed with the Consultant and the owner/developer. Changes that require any increase or
decrease to the contractor's cost will be the responsibility of the owner/developer and may result
in increased City review and inspection fees.
All construction shall meet the requirements of the most current edition of the WSDOT S tandard
Specifications for Road, Bridge, and Municipal Construction, the Manual on Uniform Traffic
Control Devices, the Department of Health Water System Design Manual, the Department of
Ecology Criteria for Sewage Works Design, the Stormwater Management Manual for Eastern
Washington, City of Pasco Standards, the approved plans, the approved Project Specifications
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 2 – Development Procedure
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 2-4
and other applicable regulations. Special Provisions (if any) shall be prepared and submitted to
the City for acceptance. All changes, alterations, or revisions to the approved plans or
specifications shall be submitted for acceptance by the City Engineer.
Copies of all test records shall be furnished to the City Engineer on a weekly basis, or as deemed
necessary by the City Engineer. The City Engineer or designee will visit the project site to review
the work related to the required inspection. Such site visits do not relieve the applicant, or the
contractor of any responsibilities for performing all work in accordance with the approved plans
and this chapter. The City Engineer or designee may also visit the project site from time to time
to monitor the overall progress of the project.
Failure to comply with testing requirements may necessitate appropriate or additional testing and
certification as directed by the City Engineer. Costs of such testing and certification shall be borne
by the contractor and/or applicant. At the time that such action is directed by the City Engineer,
no further work will be permitted on the road or subdivision until all tests have been completed
and all corrections have been made to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.
The City shall have the authority to cause a suspension of construction when, in the City's opinion,
such work is not being done in conformance with the approved plans, specifications, regulations
or permit. Any resultant delays, impacts, or added expenses shall not be the City’s responsibility.
Upon written notice that the public improvements have been substantially completed, the City will,
in the company of the Owner/Developer or his Agent, make a final inspection of the construction.
The Owner/Developer shall see that all necessary additions, corrections, repairs, and/or
modifications are made.
CONSTRUCTION COMPLETION
At the conclusion of construction and when all corrections and repairs have been made, the
Owner/Developer shall submit record drawings together with a Certificate of Work Completion,
which shall include, but not be limited to, testing records, material certifications and wa rranties,
and a request for City Engineer certification of completed public improvements.
No building or service connection to sanitary sewers, storm drains, or water lines will be permitted
until these systems have received certification by the City Engineer, or unless otherwise approved
by the City for connections (including the payment of connection charges).
The completion of all public improvements, including submittal of “As-Built Drawings” shall be
required prior to the issuance of a building permit, however, in certain situations, a building permit
may be granted prior to the completion of the public improvements provided the Owner/Developer
submits a bond for the public improvements, as required by PMC 21.30.050. All public
improvements including “As-Built Drawings” must be completed prior to receiving a Certificate of
Occupancy.
When all public improvements have been completed in an acceptable manner, and following
receipt of a Certificate of Work Completion package, the City Engineer shall provide certification
of completed public improvements. Certification by the City shall not relieve the
Owner/Developer’s, or the Contractor’s liability of all work being performed in conformance with
the approved plans, specifications and permit. Public improvements shall be deemed accepted
by the City within the timeframes set forth within the PMC.

G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 4-5
1-05.3(1) Project Record Drawings (New Section)
The following new section shall be added to the Standard Specifications:
In consideration of the following Pasco Municipal Code section;
21.30.050 Approval Requirements. Prior to approval of a final plat, all required
infrastructure improvements including as-built drawings and data of all
underground utilities necessary to serve said plat must be constructed and
accepted by the City Engineer. In lieu of actually completing all improvements, the
developer may provide the City with a bond, cash or irrevocable letter of credit in
an amount equal to 125 percent of the City Engineer’s estimate of the cost to
complete the required infrastructure improvements. No certificate of occupancy will
be issued for any structure in a subdivision until all infrastructure improvements
are completed. [Ord. 3398 § 2, 1999; Code 1970 § 26.28.050.]
This portion of PMC shall apply to all privately developed parcels, including commercial,
within the City of Pasco and the expected as-built documentation will follow the procedures
and requirements contained herein for final acceptance of work. Drawings shall be kept
current weekly, with all field instruction, change orders, and construction adjustment.
Drawings shall be subject to the inspection of the Developer and the City at all times.
In conjunction with the Public Works Engineering Plan Review Process, post construction
record drawings are required for all Private Development projects. The intent of this
document is to guide the designing Engineer, the Developer and their Consultants in
providing the City with acceptable record drawings and survey information.
When the improvements are complete and intended for acceptance by the City, including
landscaping, the developer shall prepare “as-built” record drawings for the City using the
current set of approved construction drawings, including all revisions and contractor’s field
mark-ups. The record drawings shall incorporate all changes made by both the Engineer
and in the field during the construction process. Changes to be noted shall include
changes in material, size, grade and location of utilities.
Bonding or Phased Improvements
The Developer can bond for remaining improvements per PMC 21.30.050. In cases where
the remaining improvements are bonded, the Developer is responsible to provide
complete record drawings for constructed improvements, both paper and electronic, prior
to receiving bonding acceptance consideration for remaining improvements or phases.
Future phases will not receive bonding acceptance without written acceptance of the
Record Drawings from completed phases per this section.
Preliminary (Paper) Record Drawing Procedures
1. A licensed Engineer representing the Developer will ensure that all improvements
associated with the approved construction plans are obtained and create an
accurate as-built topographical representation of the data.
2. The data, differing from initial plan acceptance, will be incorporated into the
preliminary record drawings and the Engineer will adjust the features in the record
drawings to match the actual data. All revised and verified elevations for sewer,
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 4 - General Requirements for All Projects
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 4-6
storm, water, and irrigation will be shown on the record drawings by striking a
single line through the design elevations and adding the surveyed “as-built”
elevations. Horizontal locations will be indicated by using centerline station and
offsets. All revised and verified station and offsets will be shown on the record
drawings by striking a single line through the design station and offsets and adding
the surveyed station and offsets. The stationing will be based on the approved
construction drawings. The Engineer will update both the plan and profile layouts
with the revised and verified data. Revised information shall be “clouded” as
appropriate to indicate revisions.
3. Prior to final walk-through, the Engineer will compile the data and submit two
copies of the preliminary (paper) record drawings to the City. The walk-through will
not be scheduled until the paper record drawings are received.
Preliminary Record Drawing Submittals
• Two (2) paper copies (22”x34”) including all field changes made.
• The preliminary record drawing will have all changes from the approved
construction drawings clouded.
• The preliminary record drawing submittal will include the final field information
as-built.
Final (Mylar and Electronic) Record Drawing Procedures
After receiving approval of the preliminary paper record drawing from the City, the
developer/designing Engineer will submit the following:
Final Record Drawing Submittals
• One (1) full size Mylar copy of the corrected record drawing. The final record
drawing shall be signed and sealed by a licensed Engineer and licensed
surveyor. The clouding of changes will be removed before the Mylar is
submitted.
• One (1) PDF copy of the final record drawing.
• One (1) electronic copy of data conforming to the standards set forth by the
City of Pasco Geographic Information System (GIS) as part of the Information
Services (IS) Department.

shall follow the approved construction plans and specifications, schedule, and request
inspections and testing at the appropriate times as required herein. The Engineer will try
to provide inspections on short notice, but if unable to, the requirements for proper notice
shall apply. The project schedule prepared by the Contractor and approved by the
Engineer shall also be used as a guide for the Contractor to schedule inspections. The
Contractor shall provide a minimum 48 hours notice to request inspections and testing,
but in no case shall there be more than 72 hours notice. The request shall state the date
and approximate time the inspection or test is requested. If the Contractor has requested
two (2) inspections or tests and is not prepared for said inspection or test, the Contractor
shall pay the costs for any additional improperly scheduled requests.
At the beginning of the project, or each applicable construction activity, the Contractor
shall meet with the City Engineer or his representative and establish a minimum 100 feet
of product, in the field, which meets the specifications. This work includes: Survey staking
and control, pavement cuts, utility trenches, trench bedding, pipe installation, backfill,
patches, curb and gutter alignment, grade and finish, sidewalk finish, paving finish, and
any other activities determined by the Engineer to be important to the project. No major
amount of work shall proceed until this is established. This does not waive the
Contractor’s requirements in the specifications for quality control or materials used.
Inspections and testing are mandatory for acceptance of backfilling any utility trenches;
placing base course and top course for streets; paving; placing sidewalks, curbs and
gutters; storm, sewer and water line installation.
1-05.7 Removal of Defective and Unauthorized Work
(October 1, 2005 APWA GSP)

Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 4 - General Requirements for All Projects
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 4-8
be identified in the written notice, with Contracting Agency forces or by such other means
as the Contracting Agency may deem necessary.
If the Contractor fails to comply with a written order to remedy what the City Engineer
determines to be an emergency situation, the Engineer may have the defective and
unauthorized work corrected immediately, the rejected work removed and replaced, or
have work the Contractor refuses to perform completed by using Contracting Agency or
other forces. An emergency situation is any situation when, in the opinion of the Engineer,
a delay in its remedy could be potentially unsafe, or might cause serious risk of loss or
damage to the public.
Direct or indirect costs incurred by the Contracting Agency attributable to correcting a nd
remedying defective or unauthorized work, or work the Contractor failed or refused to
perform, shall be paid by the Developer/Contractor. Such direct and indirect costs shall
include in particular, but without limitation, compensation for additional professional
services required, and costs for repair and replacement of work of others destroyed or
damaged by correction, removal, or replacement of the Contractor’s unauthorized work.
The rights exercised under the provisions of this section shall not diminish the Contracting
Agency’s right to pursue any other avenue for additional remedy or damages with respect
to the Contractor’s failure to perform the work as required.
Supplement this section with the following:
For new roadway/street construction and overlays, HMA work rejected shall require the
replacement of the entire road or street width from block to block or as approved in writing
from the City Engineer. For trench patching, HMA work rejected shall require the
replacement of the entire patch width from block to block or as approved in writing from
the City Engineer.

proposed by the Contractor which (1) will constitute or create a hazard to the work, or to
persons or property; or (2) will not produce finished work in accor dance with the terms of
the Contract. The Consultant's or City’s approval of the Contractor's means and methods
of construction or his failure to exercise his right to reject such means or methods shall
not relieve the Contractor of the obligation to accomplish the result intended by the
Contract; nor shall the exercise of such right to reject create a cause for action for
damages.
1-05.10 Guarantees
Delete this section and replace it with the following:
If defective and unauthorized materials or work is discovered within the guarantee
timeframe after the certification of completed public improvements date, the
Developer/Contractor shall promptly, upon written request, return and in accordance with

require a looped, on-site water main. Easements shall be provided for all on-site, public, looped
water mains, in accordance with CHAPTER 1, Section 11. Fire hydrants shall be located at the
ends of curb returns or at property lines between lots, and not be located within driveways,
driveway ramps, or handicap ramps.
When additional fire hydrants are required or the required fire flow of a new site is greater than
the existing fire flow capacity, the public water main shall be extended and looped around the site,
reconnecting to the public distribution supply main, at the Developer’s expense. Fire hydrants
shall be located along the looped public water main as determined by the Fire Chief. The looped
water main will remain public and will not require check valves. The looped water main shall be
located within an easement centered on the water main, free of any other parallel-aligned private
utilities, see CHAPTER 1, Section 11. All water main components shall be located within the
easement including valves, hydrants, thrust blocks, fittings, etc. such that the City can maint ain
the public utility.
City-approved backflow prevention devices are required on all fire line connections to public water
mains when the line is not required to be looped.
Where the water system pressures are outside of acceptable ranges as identified in the City’s
Water System Comprehensive Plan, a pressure reducing valve (PRV) station may be required as
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 5 - Water System Improvements
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 5-3
determined by the City Engineer. The PRV station shall be designed by a Civil Engineer currently
licensed by the State of Washington and shall be submitted to the City for review. All costs for
design, review, approval, procurement, installation, and construction shall be borne by the
Developer, see PRV section below.

structures, etc. shall be encased in a continuous welded steel casing (or as approved by
permitting agencies) and provided with casing spacers in accordance with these Standards.
Requirements by other agencies involved in crossings shall supersede these Standards.
Water mains shall maintain a 10-foot horizontal and 18-inch vertical separation above non-potable
pipelines (sanitary sewers, reclaimed water, irrigation pipelines, stormwater pipes, and other
uses) in accordance with Section 8.4.4 of the Water System Design Manual, December 2009, by
the Washington State Department of Health. Additionally, water and sewer mains shall be
separated in accordance with Section C1-9.1 of the Criteria for Sewage Works Design, August
2008, by the Washington State Department of Ecology. Gas, power, telephone, and other dry
utilities shall maintain a minimum 3-foot horizontal clearance from water mains.
The design of water mains and appurtenances is subject to review and approval consideration by
the City of Pasco Public Works Director and City Engineer. The Public Works Director may, at
his discretion, adjust these Design and Construction Standards as necessary to facilitate
installation of water lines and appurtenances for the health, safety, and prot ection of the general
public.
New water systems shall be placed in service, including all successful testing, prior to placement
of asphalt.
Irrigation Systems
Where the City of Pasco Irrigation Water Utility is available and /or as determined by the City
Engineer, new subdivisions and developments shall be served by a separate irrigation water
distribution system with an individual service for each lot. The irrigation system shall be designed
by a professional engineer and constructed in accordance with applicable City of Pasco
Construction Standards. All new public irrigation mains shall be a minimum diameter of 8 inches,
or larger diameters as required by the City of Pasco. In the event irrigation water is not available
in the vicinity of the subdivision, the irrigation system shall be tested, sealed, and buried with ends
clearly marked to facilitate a connection when irrigation water is available. Refer to Section 8-03
for material requirements.
Domestic water and non-potable irrigation services should be extended to opposite lot corners in
new construction. Where it is impossible to install them in that manner, 10-feet of separation
needs to be supplied between the service points (meter boxes).
Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) Stations
The City’s Water System Comprehensive Plan and Irrigation Masterplan define the minimum and
maximum pressures admissible in the system. In locations not covered by the Plan, the City may
determine a study is necessary to determine a development’s impacts on the system, at the
expense of the Developer. The topography of the service area dictates the division of the water
system into different pressure zones. PRVs are needed where connections between different
pressure zones are proposed or required for the extension of the water system. PRVs are deemed
necessary when otherwise the potable water or irrigation water would be delivered at pressures
non-compliant with the established threshold.
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 5 - Water System Improvements
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 5-4
When a PRV is deemed necessary by the City, the Developer shall be responsible for providing
a design in accordance with the City’s Water System Comprehensive Plan and City Standards.
Said design will be reviewed by the City Engineering Department as part of the development plan
review process.
The PRV design and all associated flow calculations and thrust block/restraint calculations must
be performed by a Professional Engineer licensed in the State of Washington.
The PRV design must comply with the following criteria:
• All necessary calculations and drawings for any related design shall be submitted to the
City for approval. Calculations of flow must be performed by the Developer’s engineer
based on the Peak Hourly Demand (PHD), plus provisions for required fire flow.
• Pressure zones must adhere to the provisions included in the Comprehensive Plan and
Masterplan for the respective utility.
• All PRVs will be placed in vaults that are large enough to provide ample work space for
field inspection and valve repair.
• Vaults shall be designed with a gravity drain or sump pump into an adjacent drainage
structure, to prevent vault flooding.
• Pressure relief valves will be considered for closed pressure zones to prevent over
pressurization if a PRV fails in the open position. A pressure relief valve can be
incorporated into the PRV Package Station or can be design in stand-alone configuration.
Pressure relief valves shall feature full flow piping to a turned down riser 18” to 36” above
ground, for visible detection of relief flow. Relief flow shall be routed to a nearby retention
basin of appropriate size.
• The pressure reducing valve shall be set to open at any pressure below its preset setpoint
and to close at any pressure above an adjustable deadband, to maintain downstream
pressure within 2.5 psi of the pressure setpoint. Downstream pressure control shall not be
based on changing upstream pressures. Valve shall be provided with a valve position
indicator assembly.
• The upstream pressure shall be sustained at a predetermined minimum, to be established
by the City.

CHAPTER 6 - SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS
All extensions and additions to the City's sanitary sewer system shall conform to the Design and
Construction Standards of the City of Pasco, the Washington State Department of Ecology, and
designed by a Civil Engineer currently licensed by the State of Washington.
All sanitary sewer improvements shall be designed in accordance with the Washington state
Department of Ecology’s Criteria for Sewage Works Design (Orange Book).
All new lots and developments shall be served by a public sanitary sewer line adjacent to the lot
or development site.
Sewer lines shall be extended by the Developer to the point where the adjoining property owner’s
responsibility for further extension begins. This typically requires an extension across the entire
frontage of the property to the property line of the adjoining owner. In some cases, it will require
dedication of an easement and a line extension across the property or extension across two or
more sides of the developing property. Extensions will be consistent with and implement the
City’s adopted General Sewer Plan, including alignments, sizes, and depths necessary to serve
future areas within the Urban Growth Area (UGA) boundary.
Sewer lines shall be located in streets to serve abutting properties. Lines located in streets will
be offset from the street centerline and not located within a vehicle wheel path. When necessary,
sewer lines may be located within public easements, see CHAPTER 1, Section 11. Sewer lines
located in easements shall generally be located in the center of the easement, but may, with the
approval of the City Engineer, be offset to accommodate the installation of other utilities or to
satisfy special circumstances.
The minimum size for public sewer lines is eight (8) inches in diameter. The developer’s sewer
system must provide capacity for the proposed development but must also provide capacity for
future extensions consistent with the General Sewer Plan.
Manholes shall be installed at intervals of no greater than 400 feet and at all vertical and horizontal
angle points in the sewer main. Curved or deflected pipelines will not be permitted. Sewer lines
shall be terminated with a manhole. In special circumstances, a flush-end (cleanout) may be
installed on the end of a sewer main extension, provided the end is no further than 150 feet from
the last manhole and the sewer main line and grade will permit further extension.
Sewer mains generally should not exceed a slope of 5%, unless site constraints require steeper
slopes. Should the sewer main slope exceed 5%, the Developer’s Engineer shall provide
calculations to determine if energy dissipaters and/or pipe restraints are necessary. The City
Engineer will make the final determination if dissipaters and restraints are required. Sewer mains
with a slope of 20% or greater shall be secured with concrete anchors, with spacing requirements
determined by the City Engineer.
All new sewer line installations shall be satisfactorily tested and inspected per Section 7-17 prior
to being placed into service including low pressure air and deflection testing, and television
inspection, all at the expense of the Developer.
Each building containing sanitary sewer facilities shall be served by a separate private side sewer
line. Branched side sewers serving multiple buildings and properties shall not be permitted. A
single side sewer serving multi-unit buildings is permitted.
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 6 - Sanitary Sewer System Improvements
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 6-2
Sewer services to residential single-family lots shall be 4-inch diameter, and commercial
properties shall be a minimum of 6-inch diameter.
Side sewers services shall be installed in accordance with these Construction Standards and as
shown on the City Standard Details. Water service and side sewer service lines shall not be laid
in the same trench, except if approved materials (those listed in Section 7 -17.2 of the Standard
Specifications for Road, Bridge, and Municipal Construction) are used and the following
requirements are met:
1. The bottom of the water pipe shall not be less than 12 inches above the top of the sewer
or drain line.
2. The water pipe shall be placed on a solid shelf excavated at one side of the common
trench with a clear horizontal distance of not less than 12 inches from the sewer or drain
line.
Side sewers shall extend 10-feet beyond the right-of-way and the pipe end shall be capped and
marked for future connection. Services shall be located a minimum of 10-feet from water services
and on the low side of the lot.
Sewer lines shall be designed for gravity flow operation and in accordance with the General Sewer
Plan.
Sewer force mains may be necessary in specific City locations as determined by the City
Engineer. Lift stations and force mains shall be limited to those locations and circumstances
where they are consistent with the General Sewer Plan and are the only viable solution to serve
the proposed development and other properties in the vicinity. Lift stations and force mains shall
be designed by a Professional Civil Engineer licensed in the State of Washington in accordance
with the direction and requirements given by the City Engineer, for review and approval by the
City of Pasco Public Works Director and City Engineer. Hydraulic analysis including modeling
shall be performed by the Developer’s Civil Engineer as determined necessary by the City
Engineer.
The design of sewer lines and appurtenances is subject to review and approval by the City
Engineer. The City Engineer may, at his discretion, adjust these Design and Construction
Standards as necessary to facilitate installation of sewer lines and appurtenances for the health,
safety, and protection of the general public.

CHAPTER 7 - STORMWATER IMPROVEMENTS
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR STORMWATER IMPROVEMENTS
All extensions and additions to the City of Pasco’s storm sewer (storm drain) system shall conform
to the Design and Construction Standards of the City of Pasco, the Washington State Department
of Ecology, and designed by a Civil Engineer currently licensed by the State of Washington.
Private systems, where required by applicable provisions of the Pasco Municipal Code, s hall also
comply with these requirements.
All stormwater and drainage improvements shall be planned, designed, permitted, constructed
and maintained in accordance with the requirements of the latest edition of the Washington
Department of Ecology (Ecology) Stormwater Management Manual for Eastern Washington
(SWMMEW). The Technical Requirements outlined in Appendix 1 of the Eastern Washington
Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit shall apply to all new development and redevelopment
sites.
All new storm drainage facilities, public or private, shall be designed by a Professional Engineer
licensed in the State of Washington. Complete stormwater runoff and drainage facilities sizing
calculations shall be submitted to the Engineering Division for review and comment. Storm sewer
facilities and pipelines shall be designed to meet a minimum 25-year storm criteria, and both the
24-hour and short-duration storms shall be considered in the design.
All storm runoff occurring on all new lots and developments (private property) shall be retained
and disposed of on-site. No private storm runoff will be permitted to enter public right-of-way or
the public storm drainage system. The property owner shall maintain all stormwater Best
Management Practices (BMPs) that are installed on private property.
Where existing stormwater from adjacent properties enters the proposed site, the Developer shall
be responsible for including the additional stormwater in the proposed system including retention
and treatment as applicable.
Storm runoff for new public streets shall be designed and constructed as required to the point
where the adjoining property owner’s responsibility for further extension begins. This typically
requires an extension across the entire frontage of the property to the property line of the adjoining
owner.
All storm sewer designs for new public streets shall be based upon an engineering analysis by
the Developer’s Consultant that considers total drainage areas, runoff rates, pipe and inlet
capacities, treatment capacity, and any other factors pertinent to the design.
All illicit discharges as defined by the Washington State Department of Ecology are not permitted
to enter any storm sewer system.
All subsurface infiltration facilities used for the treatment and disposal of stormwater shall meet
the requirements of and be registered with the Ecology Underground Injection Control (UIC)
program. Applicants must register UIC wells with Ecology in the applicant’s name, 60 days prior
to construction as required by Ecology. Following construction completion and at the time of
public improvements certification, the applicant shall process an ownership transfer request with
Ecology, to transition UIC ownership to the City of Pasco.
The SWMMEW requires that a water quality storm (6-month, 24-hour event) be treated as part of
the stormwater system. Basins designed as infiltration facilities shall require a percolation test of
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 7 - Stormwater Improvements
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 7-2
the native soils to determine treatment ability. The SWMMEW and City of Pasco require a
maximum infiltration rate of 9 inches per hour for soil treatment. In many cases, existing soil
classifications provide much higher infiltration rates requiring amendments to drop this rate. The
SWMMEW provides guidelines for producing an acceptable soil type to meet treatment criteria
necessary to comply with State water quality standards. If the existing soil conditions have an
infiltration rate higher than 9 inches per hour, then the soil does not meet the necessary treatment
criteria and must be amended as outlined in the SWMMEW to create acceptable soil conditions.
Inlet spacing shall be designed in accordance with the WSDOT Hydraulics Manual, Chapter 5.
Generally, inlet spacing shall not exceed 300 feet. There shall be a manhole or Type II catch
basin installed at the intersection of two collector storm sewers. A collector storm sewer is a
sewer servicing more than one catch basin. Stormwater flow shall be kept in the gutter and shall
flow across intersections. Catch basin “bubble up” installations will not be permitted.
Catch basins and inlets shall be located at the ends of curb returns or at property lines between
lots. Catch basins and inlets shall not be located within driveways, driveway transitions, or
pedestrian ramps.
All public stormwater pipes or culverts shall be a minimum of 12 inches in diameter. Pipes shall
have a minimum slope of 0.5% and be designed with a minimum velocity of 2-feet per second.
Pipes shall be sized so that they do not surcharge under design storm conditions.
Manholes shall be installed at all vertical and horizontal angle points in the stormwater pipes, and
at intervals of no greater than 400 feet. Curved or deflected pipelines will not be permitted. All
stormwater manholes with solid lids shall have a channeled base and all catch basin manholes
with grated lids shall have a sump.
A Storm Water Site Plan is required for any project subject to Core Elements #2, #3, #4, #5, #6,
or #8 per Chapter 2 of the SWMMEW. Upon approval of the Storm Water Site Plan, a Storm
Water Construction Permit shall be issued upon payment of the Storm Water Construction Permit
Fee as provided in the City Fee Summary Ordinance 4309.
The applicant’s project may require coverage under the Washington State General NPDES Permit
for construction projects. The Developer shall be responsible for compliance with the State
stormwater permit conditions and shall provide the City with a copy of the Ecology approved
Notice of Intent (NOI), Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), or Erosivity Waiver
Certification as applicable.
A temporary erosion and sedimentation control (TESC) plan shall be included with all plan
submittals and should show how existing storm systems and adjacent properties will be protected
from storm runoff.
For commercial and industrial sites, the Developer’s Consultant shall provide both the total square
footage of the entire property under review, and the total square footage of all impervious
surfaces, including but not limited to; the proposed building, any concrete or asphalt paving,
sidewalk, and roof surface, etc. Information shall be shown in a table on the cover sheet, or on
the site plan sheet. This information is required of all new commercial development (or of any
structure undergoing modification or addition).

DESIGN CRITERIA
The SWMMEW allows different methodologies to apply design storms to stormwater facility
design. For purposes of consistency, specific design storm amounts of precipitation are provided
below and summarized in Table 6-1. Precipitation amounts are taken from the figures and
calculation methods provided in the SWMMEW. Once the rainfall amount is known, hydrographic
methods are used to determine the rate and volume of runoff from the selected design storm, and
to mathematically route a storm through proposed facilities. Hydrographic methods are discussed
below along with their application to different design conditions in Pasco.
DESIGN STORMS
Design storms are used to establish the amount of precipitation to be used in calculating the runoff
from a parcel or basin. Based on rainfall records and methods outlined in the SWMMEW, the
storm events described below are applicable to Pasco. Note that all 24-hour storm precipitation
amounts have been adjusted by a factor of 1.0 for use in the SCS Type IA storm for Eastern
Washington Region 2.
Water Quality 3-Hour Storm – 0.26 inches of precipitation. This short-duration water quality storm
event is intended to provide treatment for the “first flush” events and is representative of a summer
thundershower. The “first flush” can be thought of as the first amount of water that enters the
system during a storm, which typically contains the highest concentration of pollutants such as
roadway grit, dust and oils.
Water Quality 24-Hour Storm – 0.53 inches of precipitation. This 24-hour water quality storm
event is intended to provide treatment for the “first flush” events.
25-Year, 3-Hour Storm (Short-Duration Storm) – 0.92 inches of precipitation. This short-duration
storm has a 25-year return frequency, or a 4 percent chance of occurring in any one year. This
unique storm is representative of the summer thunderstorm where a significant amount of rainfall
occurs over a 3-hour period and should generally be used for design of flow-based stormwater
BMPs.
25-year, 24-Hour Storm (SCS Type IA Storm) – 1.6 inches of precipitation (uses 25-year, 24-hour
storm intensity). This storm has a 25-year return frequency, or a 4 percent chance of occurring
in any one year. Volume-based BMPs should generally be designed for this SCS Type IA storm.
The intensity of this storm is lower since the rainfall occurs more slowly over an extended time
within the 72-hour period. Therefore, the runoff rate is lower, but the volume is greater than the
3-hour storm.
The 25-year design storm warranting the largest storm sewer facility size shall be the controlling
storm.

HYDROLOGIC ANALYSIS
Hydrologic analysis determines the amount of runoff from a given storm for a given drainage area.
Available methods range from simple calculations such as the Rational Method to complex
computer models, requiring significant data input and knowledge of hydrologic effects.
The following hydrographic methods are considered acceptable for the watersheds within Pasco
and its urban growth area.
• The Santa Barbara Urban Hydrograph (SBUH) method may be used for all analyses
regardless of the size of the drainage area. Input parameters shall be as described by
Ecology or WSDOT for the design storms described above. Other computer models may
also be used with prior approval by the City.
• For drainage areas less than or equal to 20 acres, the rational formula and modified
rational method, as described in older WSDOT and Soil Conservation Service
publications, may be used for flow-rate-based applications. Inputs shall be as described
in those publications, or other engineering texts. The SCS Unit Hydrograph Method may
also be used.
• For drainage areas greater than 20 acres, and when it is necessary to route flows through
detention facilities, the SCS Unit Hydrograph Method may be used. Inputs shall be as
described in WSDOT and Soil Conservation Service publications, or other engineering
texts.
The SBUH method uses a hyetograph to depict the intensity (amount) of rainfall versus time. A
hyetograph may also be required for routing design storms through some BMPs. Design storm
hyetographs applicable to Pasco stormwater facilities are as follows:
• Water Quality Volume-Based Treatment BMPs – 24-hour SCS Type IA storm with a 6-
month return frequency.
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 7 - Stormwater Improvements
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 7-5
• Water Quality Flow-Rate-Based Treatment BMPs – 3-hour short-duration storm with a 6-
month return frequency.
• Volume-Based BMPs – SCS Type IA Storm with a 25-year return frequency. Storm
intensity is based on the 25-year, 24-hour storm event.
• Flow-Rate-Based BMPs – 3-hour short-duration storm with a 25-year return frequency as
described in the SWMMEW.
• Critical facilities required to carry 50- and 100-year storms – 24-hour SCS Type II storm.
TREATMENT BMP SIZING
The City of Pasco is located in Ecology’s Region 2 of Eastern Washington. Therefore , all
calculations shall be based on Region 2 methods recommended in Ecology’s SWMMEW for the
sizing of stormwater BMPs. The following are design guidelines for volume-based treatment
BMPs and flow-rate-based treatment BMPs.
Volume-based treatment BMPs are sized the same whether they are located upstream or
downstream of a detention facility. The volume of runoff predicted for the proposed developed
condition of a site will be calculated using the 24-hour SCS Type IA storm with a 6-month return
frequency (the 0.53-inch water quality design storm). The BMP will be sized to treat this amount
of water and will also be sized to pass the 25-year short-duration storm, either through or around
the BMP, without damaging the BMP or dislodging pollutants from within it.
Flow-rate-based treatment BMPs are sized differently depending on whether they are located
upstream or downstream from a detention facility. If the BMP is located upstream of a detention
facility, or if there is no detention facility, the runoff flow rate predicted for the proposed developed
condition of a site will be calculated using the 3-hour short-duration storm with a 6-month return
frequency (the 0.26-inch water quality design storm). If the BMP is located downstream of a
detention facility, it must be sized for the full 2-year release rate of the detention facility.
Stormwater and drainage design within the 200-foot shoreline buffer shall utilize the 24-hour SCS
Type II storm with a return period of 100 years.
FLOW CONTROL
The criteria listed below shall apply to control stormwater runoff flow and the designated design
storms shall apply:
• Flow-rate-based stormwater BMPs such as storm sewer facilities and pipelines shall be
designed to carry at a minimum the 25-year, 3-hour short-duration design storm described
in the SWMMEW (0.92 inches of precipitation). Depending on the size of the basin, time
of concentration and infiltration rates, some infiltration facilities shall be designed using
the 25-year, 24-hour storm (1.6 inches of precipitation, SCS Type IA). The 25-year design
storm warranting the largest storm sewer facility size shall be the controlling storm. At the
City’s discretion, if the facilities are critical to public health and safety, or significant
property damage could occur, they shall be designed to successfully pass the 50-year or
100-year storm. Storm runoff from any new construction will not be permitted to enter the
City’s existing storm sewer pipelines.
Pasco Design and Construction Standards Chapter 7 - Stormwater Improvements
G:\PROJECTS\2019\19059E\Pasco Design and Construction Standards.docx Page 7-6
• Volume-based stormwater BMPs such as retention and detention basins shall be
designed based on the 25-year, 24-hour storm (1.6 inches of precipitation, SCS Type IA).
A secondary outlet or emergency spillway shall be provided to pass the 100-year, 24-hour
storm (2.0 inches of precipitation, SCS Type II) without damage to the facility.
