Site Plan and Stormwater Management Report Review
Dear Ms. Radford,
Per your request Boundaries, LLC. has completed a review of the site plans and stormwater management
report for the proposed light industrial re-development located at 179 Gallivan Lane (Map 048 Lot 016-
000) prepared by Green Site Design, LLC. This review is intended to evaluate compliance of the plan with
the requirements of the Town of Montville Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Regulations.
The following documents were received as part of the application package:
• Inland Wetlands Application.
• Project Narrative Letter.
• Stormwater Management Plan.
• Wetland Delineation Report.
• Site Plan for Proposed Industrial Building, 179 Gallivan Lane, Montville, Connecticut, Prepared for
Fluid Line Products, LLC, Revised September 10, 2025.
This proposal reduces the impervious surfaces on the site, including within the Upland Review Area, and
provides stormwater management where none existed previously. This proposal will be an improvement
over existing conditions. The following comments or questions are based on the above documents:
General
• Please submit the CT DEEP Statewide Inland Wetlands & Watercourses Activity Reporting Form if
not included in application package previously.

• Please submit abutter’s list if not included in application package previously.
Stormwater Modeling
• Please evaluate the pipe discharge velocities to ensure that the appropriately sized riprap is
specified for the project record.
Site Plans
• Due to the proximity to the upland review area, please confirm that refuse collection trucks can
access the dumpster enclosure in the configuration as shown.
• Please update the callouts for the erosion control blanket to match the response to the Soil
Scientist review comments throughout the plan set (noted on Sheets 3, 4, 7 (Note 13) and 8).
• Please continue a row of erosion controls along the eastern limit of clearing as the topography
slopes to the northeast in this area.
• Please provide pipe sizes and construction details for the swale with curtain drain.
• Please provide a construction detail for the specified 1.5H:1V modified riprap slope stabilization.
• Please provide spot elevations for the reverse bench to ensure the bench meets the
recommendations of the Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Guidelines:
• Please update the level spreader detail so the dimension between the top of berm and top of
riprap match the callout. Please identify the interior and exterior sides of the basin for clarity
during construction.
• Please confirm the size of the riprap called for in the Modified Riprap Splash Pad Detail. Please
confirm splash pad dimensions with the plan callouts.
• The proposed sewer installation is located within the Upland Review Area, within the limits of an
existing paved surface. Please consider incorporating erosion control measures along this route
or a procedure for maintaining a non-erodible trench surface at the end of working days. Please

incorporate a trench/pavement restoration detail. Please verify the inverts called out at the
western manhole. Please provide details for the manhole and sewer pipe meeting Town of
Montville WPCA requirements.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
David C. McKay, P.E.
