2.10 Di!!ital Plan of Subdivision Specifications
2.10.1 Format and Delivery
Completed digital plan of subdivision must be in AutoCAD 12 drawing fonnat or DXF
and be delivered on a 1.44 MB floppy diskette. Two copies of the plan of subdivision are
required on separate diskettes.
Each diskette must be labelled identifYing the legal property description, Developer's
name, subdivision file name and date delivered.
PKZIP Release 2.04G may be used to perfonn file compression if required.
It is the developer's responsibility to ensure that all drawing changes occurring throughout
the approvals process are incorporated into the digital submission.
2.10.2 Line Accuracv
All line data depicting property boundaries must be mathematically closed to fonn
polygons. This is essential since that data will be used in a geographic infonnation system.
An example of ensuring line accuracy would utilized the AutoCAD OSNAP functionality.
2.10.3 Laver Standard
The lines which describe the boundary of all properties created \vithin the plan of
subdivision will be isolated on a unique layer/Jevel. In certain cases, some of the line
segments will coincide with the location of concession lot lines, registered plan data, open
wads, rivers and lakes.
The file may contain duplicate line work, however, when all other layers are turned off, the
PLAN_OF _SUB layer/level will outline the property boundaries in the fonn of enclosed
polygons.

2.10.4 Notes
The number of layersllevels and associate structures and naming conventions that a
developer wishes to adopt are not relevant to this update process, providing the developer
has included the minimum two layers; PLAN_OF _SUB and PL_LT_TEXT.
The digital files should contain enough site data as to allow for horizontal and vertical
positioning within the existing base mapping. A minimum of two road intersections
located outside the plan of subdivision must show in the drawing.
It is not necessary that the digital data be in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) co-
ordinates, since the registration process will automatically convert any unit grid to the
Ontario Basic Mapping UTM co-ordinate system.
Consideration has been given to the fact that the developers have studied and adopted
internal drafting standards. In most cases, a simple batch or AutoCAD LISP outline will
allow for the necessary file content to be converted and exported into the appropriate file
structure and format.

General Gradin\! Requirements
It is recognized that it is difficult to implement lot grading standards which are all inclusive and
will apply to all lots and address all potential concerns. Therefore, the following standards have
been developed as a guide on what objectives a grading design should achieve. The Township
Engineer may relax the standards on an individual basis provided site specific constraints exist and
sound engineering principles are proposed.
The following standards have been developed and are to apply to all lots regardless of size:
o Grading around houses and buildings shall direct the water away from the structure;
o Minimum flat area around a building to be 1. Om at the sides and 5. Om at the rear. The flat
area to have minimum 2% grade away from the house;
o Roof drainage downspouts to discharge onto splash pads discharging onto grassed areas;
o Impervious areas to have a minimum 0.5% slope;
o All proposed slopes to be maximum 3: 1. All existing slopes steeper than 2.5: I to be

SECTION 16 - SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM
16.1
General
.
If a full service communal sewage system including treatment is required, then the proposed type of
system will be subject to the approval of the Township Engineer and the MOEE. A preliminary
engineering report and a Class Environmental Assessment must be undertaken to support the
proposal.
The sewer system is to be designed to carry domestic, commercial, institutional and industrial
sewage for each area or subdivision under consideration. Flow is to be by gravity and pumping
will be considered only where other methods (i.e. gravity, syphon) are not possible and only with
the approval of the Township Engineer. If a pumping station is approved by the Township it shall
be designed in accordance with the MOEE guidelines with pennanent standby power all to the
satisfaction of the Township Engineer.
16.2 Service Area
The system shall be designed to service all areas within the subdivision to their maximum future
development in accordance with the Township's Official Plan. Allowance shall be made for
infiltration inflows ITom the appropriate adjacent catchment areas and shall meet with the approval
of the Township Engineer. The exact location for connecting to sewers in adjacent areas shall be
as approved by the Township Engineer.
16.3 Drains
,
All floors drains are to be connected to the sanitary sewer . Foundation drains and roof water
leaders are not to be connected to the sanitary sewer, but instead discharge into a swale or ditch.
16.4 DesiVl Flows
The sewers are to be sized for maximum design flows plus an allowance for infiltration. Minimum
velocities and slopes are to be determined for maximum design flows without infiltration.
The average daily domestic flow is to be taken as 450 litres/capita day.
Equivalent domestic flows for areas intended for uses other than residential shal1 be calculated on
an area basis and reviewed with the Township Engineer prior to design.
Maximum design flows are to be determined using average daily flows and the Hannon Peaking
Factor.
A wet weather infiltration rate of 20,000 litres/hectare/day = 0.23 htres per second per gross
hectare is to be used. To satisfY self-cleaning requirements in sanitary sewers, assume dry weather
infiltration reduces to zero for several days during dry months.
PAGE 16-2
16.5 Sewer Desi!!:n
Manning's formulae shall be used for determining the capacity of the sewer. A roughness co-
efficient ofn = 0.013 shall be used for all types of pipe.
Pipe strength design calculations shall be provided for approval by the Township Engineer.
.
Sewer pipe shall be PVC with rubber gasket joints as approved for use by the Ministry of the
Environment and Energy and shall be a minimum diameter of 200mm.
The minimum velocity for sewers operating partially full shall result in self cleansing equivalent to
that produced by flow in sewers operating full at a velocity of 0.6 mls.
The ma.ximum velocity shall be 3.0 mls at full flow.
The maximum and minimum grades for pipes shall be the grade necessary to meet the maximum
and minimum velocity requirements except that the required grade for the minimum velocity
requirement shall not exceed 2% or the road grade where the road grade exceeds 2%.
A sufficient drop shall be provided across each manhole to offset any hydraulic losses, the obverts
of inlet pipes shall not be lower than obverts of outlet pipes, and drop structure shall be used only
when drops of more than 0.9 metres are necessary.
Except for special cases, the downstream pipe diameter shall always be greater than or equal to the
upstream pipe diameter.
16.6 Truck and Local Sewers
Sanitary sewers shall generally be located in the centre of the road.
When sanitary sewers are located in easements the easement width shall be a minimum of 6.0
metres, depending on the depth of the sewer.
A minimum cover of 2.8 metres below the centre line road elevation or sufficient depth for
basement floor drains and !Tost cover shall be provided. Where sewers are located within an
easement a minimum !Tost cover of 1.5 metres may be used, provided such sewers cross below
watermams.
Minimum clearances between services shall be provided in accordance ,vith MOEE guidelines.
16.7 Manholes
Manholes shall be placed at the end of each line, at changes in size and material, and at changes in
grade and alignment. Curved or properly deflected large diameter sewer lines are allowed with
approval of the Township Engineer.
PAGE 16-3
Manhole types and sizes shall be in aceordance with MOEE guidelines. AIl manholes are to be
benched to the satisfaction of the T OMlship Engineer and frost straps are to be provided between
the upper two manhole sections.
The maximum spacing between manholes shall be generally according to the following:
.
Metres
200-900 millimetres diameter
110
975 miJlimetres diameter and greater
180
Where manholes are located in areas to be flooded by the major design stonn, manhole covers shall
be sealed, and the manhole suitably vented.
16.8 Service Connections
Single connections for residential and industrial use, shall generally be located at least 2.5 metres
to the right of water service connections, which are located at the centre line of the lot.
Connections for conunercial, institutional or multiple use will be considered on an individual basis
if similar locations cannot be used. Non-standard locations must be detailed on plan and profile
and lot grading plans.
Service connections shall be located at a minimum depth of 2.6 metres, or sufficient depth for
basement floor drains and frost cover. Service connections should cross under any watennains and
be marked with a 50 x 100nun wooden post painted green. AI! yonnections to the sanitary main
shall be pre-manufactured approved tees.
Single residential sanitary connections shaH be a minimum 125 nun diameter fitted with a water-
tight test tee (i.e.such as Crowle test fitting), plugged and braced at the property line. The
minimum slope shall be 2%. Connections for conunercial, industrial and institutional will be
considered separately and generally be 150 mrn minimum diameter with 150 x 150 test fitting.
16.9 Testine: of Sewers and Manholes
The complete sewer system including service connections to the property line and manholes shall
be tested in accordance with MOEE guidelines. Before the expiration of the maintenance period the
complete system shall be inspected by an approved video camera testing company and the
Township Engineer shall be provided with a copy of the appropriate data prior to final approval.
Any sections of sewer or service connections which fail to meet the requirements shall be repaired
or replaced at the directions of the Township Engineer. Only chemical pressure grouting repair
techniques will be considered acceptable.
