Each submittal shall contain the following project information on the cover sheet or first sheet: A. Title: Project name (add explanatory note if project name has changed). B. Table of Contents (if more than 3 sheets). C. Vicinity Map (Scale sufficient to cover project limits on one sheet or 1” = 200' whichever is greater). D. General description of site, including Quarter Section, Township and Range. E. Name and phone number of architect/engineering firm preparing plans. 2. Existing Improvements and Topography: Show all existing underground and surface improvements and topography in proximity to the project. The information must be shown for the full width of the right of way or the easement and for a sufficient distance on either side of the right of way or easement to show possible impacts on adjacent properties and/or the relationship to related facilities, including adjacent parking lots, curbs, ditches, etc. Information of existing surface and underground City of Ellensburg facilities may be obtained from the Public Works Office for water, sewer, storm drainage, while natural gas and electricity information may be obtained from the City’s Energy Services Department. The “one call” utility locate information number is 1-800-424-5555. The “one call” number should be utilized when obtaining field survey information. Other utility providers known to be in the area are Charter Communications (cable television), Ellensburg Telephone (telephone), Puget Sound Energy (natural gas and power), and Kittitas County Public Utility District (Power). 3. A. Sewer, Water and Drainage Improvements: Provide profiles of all proposed sewer, water and drain lines.

Show the storm water drainage discharge point to a public system or natural water course. Provide drainage system details whether or not detention of storm water is required, including biofiltration swales. B. Gas and Electric Improvements: The provision of Plan, Profile, and Cross-sections of proposed gas and electrical work is optional. The design of both may be requested from the Energy Services Office.
