Project Description:
Kentlake Highlands is a 310-lot, single-family residential community located in King County, Washington. Triad took advantage of the variations in the area’s soil types to provide an innovative drainage solution saving the client costs that would have been otherwise encountered using conventional measures. Stormwater flows were collected from developed site areas and conveyed to a retention basin located in an area of the site with highly permeable outwash soils well suited for infiltration, while maintaining recharge for numerous onsite wetlands. For overflow protection, a 965-foot long, 24-inch diameter tightline was installed from the retention basin around the neighboring Kentlake High School campus to safely convey excess runoff from storms up to and including the 100-year event. In 2007, our Kentlake Highlands’ design team won a Seattle-chapter ASCE Honor Award for “Site Development and Water Resources.
