<br />FRENCH DRAIN. A trench, hole or other depressed area loosely filled with rock, gravel, fragments of brick or similar
<br />pervious material used to collect or channel drainage or runoff water.
<br />WATTLES. Wattles are used to reduce sediment in runoff. Wattles are often constructed of natural plant materials
<br />such as hay, straw or similar material shaped in the form of tubes and placed on a downflow slope. Wattles are also
<br />used for perimeter and inlet controls.
<br />4.106 SITE DEVELOPMENT4.106.1 GENERAL. Preservation and use of available natural resources shall be accomplished through evaluation
<br /> and careful planning to minimize negative effects on the site and adjacent areas. Preservation of slopes,
<br /> management of storm water drainage and erosion controls shall comply with this section.
<br />4.106.2 STORM WATER DRAINAGE AND RETENTION DURING CONSTRUCTION. Projects which disturb less
<br /> than one acre of soil and are not part of a larger common plan of development which in total disturbs one acre
<br /> or more, shall manage storm water drainage during construction. In order to manage storm water drainage
<br /> during construction, one or more of the following measures shall be implemented to prevent flooding of adjacent
<br /> property, prevent erosion and retain soil runoff on the site.
<br /> 1. Retention basins of sufficient size shall be utilized to retain storm water on the site.
<br /> 2. Where storm water is conveyed to a public drainage system, collection point, gutter or similar
<br /> disposal method, water shall be filtered by use of a barrier system, wattle or other method approved
<br /> by the enforcing agency.
<br /> 3. Compliance with a lawfully enacted storm water management ordinance.
<br />Note: Refer to the State Water Resources Control Board for projects which disturb one acre or more of soil, or
<br /> are part of a larger common plan of development which in total disturbs one acre or more of soil.

<br />parking spaces required by Section 4.106.4.2.2, Item 3, the number of EV capable spaces required may be
<br />reduced by a number equal to the number of EV chargers installed over the five (5) percent required.
<br />Notes:
<br />a.Construction documents shall show locations of future EV spaces.
<br />b.There is no requirement for EV spaces to be constructed or available until receptacles for EV charging or
<br />EV chargers are installed for use.

<br />4.106.4.2.2.1.3 Accessible EV spaces.
<br />In addition to the requirements in Sections 4.106.4.2.2.1.1 and 4.106.4.2.2.1.2, all EVSE, when installed, shall
<br />comply with the accessibility provisions for EV chargers in the California Building Code, Chapter 11B. EV ready
<br />spaces and EVCS in multifamily developments shall comply with California Building Code, Chapter 11A, Section
<br />1109A.
<br />4.106.4.2.3 EV space requirements.
<br />1.Single EV space required. Install a listed raceway capable of accommodating a 208/240-volt dedicated branch
<br />circuit. The raceway shall not be less than trade size 1 (nominal 1-inch inside diameter). The raceway shall
<br />originate at the main service or subpanel and shall terminate into a listed cabinet, box or enclosure in close
<br />proximity to the location or the proposed location of the EV space. Construction documents shall identify the
<br />raceway termination point, receptacle or charger location, as applicable. The service panel and/ or subpanel shall
<br />have a 40-ampere minimum dedicated branch circuit, including branch circuit overcurrent protective device
<br />installed, or space(s) reserved to permit installation of a branch circuit overcurrent protective device.
<br />Exception: A raceway is not required if a minimum 40-ampere 208/240-volt dedicated EV branch circuit is
<br />installed in close proximity to the location or the proposed location of the EV space, at the time of original
<br />construction in accordance with the California Electrical Code.
<br />2.Multiple EV spaces required. Construction documents shall indicate the raceway termination point and the
<br />location of installed or future EV spaces, receptacles or EV chargers. Construction documents shall also provide
<br />information on amperage of installed or future receptacles or EVSE, raceway method(s), wiring schematics and
<br />electrical load calculations. Plan design shall be based upon a 40-ampere minimum branch circuit. Required
<br />raceways and related components that are planned to be installed underground, enclosed, inaccessible or in
<br />concealed areas and spaces shall be installed at the time of original construction.
<br />SECTION 4.501 GENERAL
<br />4.501.1 Scope
<br />The provisions of this chapter shall outline means of reducing the quality of air contaminants that are odorous,
<br />irritating and/or harmful to the comfort and well being of a building's installers, occupants and neighbors.
