RESIDENTAL EROSION CONTROL PLAN REQUIREMENTS
A residential building permit application must contain sufficient information to allow the Development Services
Department to determine whether the lot development complies with the requirements of the Grading and Stormwater
chapter of the Unified Development Code (UDC).
Single and Two Family Residential Sites. All residential lots must maintain properly installed erosion and sediment
control measures from the beginning of construction until slope stabilization and/or vegetation is established in order to
prevent silt and sediment from going offsite or into the street. Prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy (C
of O), vegetation must be established to adequately prevent erosion and sediment from leaving the site.
Erosion and Sediment Control Plan:
The Grading and Erosion & Sediment Control Plan can be combined as long as all key features are identified and legible
in the opinion of the reviewer. Submittal information and plans for erosion control shall include, but not be limited to the
following:
1. The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan shall be drawn to a legible conventional Engineer scale (1” = 20’) using
the site plan as the base map.
a. Show location of permit box, construction entrance/exit, concrete truck wash area, portable toilet, and
trash containment.
b. Indicate areas to be left undisturbed including soil and grading disturbance.
c. Show location of wattles, dikes, socks, stone check dams (for concentrated flow) and/or other sediment
barriers. Silt fence is acceptable, but discouraged on small flat sites where excessive silt storage is not
necessary.
d. Indicate how nearby stormwater systems such as curb inlets will be protected from any mud, sediment, or
debris that reaches them.
e. Indicate the method of re-vegetation proposed. Below are minimum standards acceptable to the City for
re-vegetation: (Note: Established vegetation required for C of O.)
i. Minimum of 4 inches of topsoil shall be required, either existing or installed, in areas to be re-
vegetated.
ii. Slopes Zero to 10% grade: Re-vegetation shall be a minimum of seeding and mulching.
iii. Slopes 10:1 up to 4:1 grade: Re-vegetation shall be a minimum of hydro-seeding with mulch and
fertilizer, sod, or groundcover.
iv. Slopes 4:1 to 3:1 grade: The slope shall be covered with landscape fabric and hydro-seeded with
mulch and fertilizer, or staked sod, or groundcover.
v. Slopes more than 3:1 grade: Any finish grade over 3:1 must be approved by the City Engineer.
Options available include Retaining walls; Terracing with groundcover; Staked Sod (up to 2:1
slope).
f. Provide details of proposed erosion control features not included in city standard details. (Standard details
can be provided by city staff).
2. A Temporary Certificate of Occupancy may be considered by the Building Official when vegetation has not been
established to adequately prevent erosion and sediment from leaving the site due to unfavorable weather
conditions, and erosion control matting along with perimeter erosion controls have been adequately established to
temporarily prevent soil loss along with a performance bond to install sod in the remaining areas at the
appropriate time.
Disturbed sites over one acre may be subject to additional ADEQ rules and guidelines not specified herein.

RESIDENTAL GRADING PLAN REQUIREMENTS
A residential building permit application must contain sufficient information to allow the Development Services
Department to determine whether the lot development complies with the requirements of the Grading and
Stormwater chapters of the Unified Development Code (UDC).
Low Impact Development. Use of Low Impact Development (LID) design strategies, as described in Chapter
179 of the UDC, to attenuate lesser storms and more closely mimic predevelopment hydrology is encouraged.
LID features appropriate for residential sites include: rain gardens, dry wells, filter strips, grassed swales,
infiltration trenches, enhanced retention ponds, rain barrels, cisterns, permeable pavement or pavers, green
roofs, etc.
Grading Plan:
If the proposed structure is located in a subdivision that includes an approved master drainage plan, the
approved plan shall be included in the building permit application and the individual lot drainage plan
shall follow the master drainage plan. (Subdivisions platted after December 2010 will include a master
drainage plan.)
Lots that are not included in an approved Master Drainage Plan are required to have a specific drainage
plan for each lot. The grading plan must establish a minimum Finish Floor Elevation (FFE) of the
structure(s) and properly drain the parcel without detrimental affects to adjacent or downstream property
owners.
Submittal information and plans include, but shall not be limited to, the following:
1. The grading plan shall be drawn to a legible conventional Engineer scale (1” = 20’) using the site plan as a base
map.
2. The Grading plan shall include, a minimum, the following features:
a. Provide a lot drainage plan with the Finish Floor Elevation (FFE) of the building, along with
flow arrows and spot elevations. In general, drainage should be routed along the shortest
practicable flow path to the street or drainage easement. (Existing flow conditions will be
considered for site specific applications.)
b. Identify existing drainage features on the lot, adjacent lots, and at the street; including inlets,
storm drain pipes, culverts, swales, springs, water impoundments, etc. and existing structures on
adjacent lots (within 20 feet of the property line).
c. Label and identify height of retaining walls, if applicable.
d. Identify the 100-year floodplain and/or floodway and base flood elevations, if applicable.
3. The Grading Plan must establish positive drainage and not re-direct existing runoff to an adjacent
property unless an existing drainage easement or property owner agreement is provided, or the approved
master drainage plan requires runoff to be directed across adjacent properties.
4. Non structural grassed swales for rear lot drainage concentration are discouraged and shall not be
installed in combination with a utility easement.
Revision Date 2/6/2015 Page 2 of 2
Grading Design Guidelines Information:
1. Account for slope away from structure.
a. The minimum slope of the flow path for a swale or sheet flow to the top of curb, top bank of
ditch, or approved drainage inlet from the high point of the final graded lot shall be a minimum
of 2% for grassed surfaces.
b. Final grade adjacent to structures shall slope away from the structure at a minimum rate of 5%
(1:20) for a minimum of 10 ft, where possible. Where lot lines, walls, slopes or other physical
barriers prohibit 6 inches of fall within 10 feet, the slope away from the structure shall be a
minimum of 5% until a parallel swale is provided and slopes away from the structure at a
minimum slope of 2% to the discharge point.
c. Grading Plan must establish positive drainage to a collection point.
d. Provide swales, as needed, to drain property to the right of way or dedicated drainage easement.
e. No standing water shall remain, unless planned low areas such as bio-retention swales, rain
gardens, etc, are planned for and properly designed, including underdrains as necessary.
2. Account for driveway/sidewalk slope.
a. Show actual or relative final elevations at the gutter, back of sidewalk, at the property corners,
driveway, the proposed FFE, swales, and identify Temporary Bench Mark, if used.
i. If no sidewalk is required and the street has a curb, grade the driveway approach and the
adjacent ground to maintain a minimum of six inches elevation above the gutter at or near
the right of way. This will prevent gutter flow from the street from entering the site.
ii. If a sidewalk is required, establish the back of sidewalk elevation above existing curb by
adding the width of greenspace (6ft typ), sidewalk (5ft), and 1 ft beyond at 2%, then
slope site to drain. (max 3:1)
iii. For either situation above, if the lot is lower than the roadway, grade driveway to divert
runoff away from garage. Minimum slope away from garage should be 4% for at least 8
ft, which results in a 4 inch drop, then divert to either side and away from house.
3. Establish the minimum FFE (finished floor elevation).
a. The minimum FFE shall be at least 12 inches above the highest elevation of the bottom of
swales, within 10 ft of structure.
b. The minimum FFE shall be at least 6 inches above the adjacent final grade.
c. Generally the FFE shall extend at least 18 inches above the elevation of the street gutter (when
draining to the street), inlet on site, an approved drainage structure, or point at which the
drainage leaves the site.
d. Alternate elevations are permitted subject to the approval of the building official, provided it can
be demonstrated that the required drainage to the point of discharge and away from the structure
is provided at locations on site, and standard methods are not feasible.

Home Energy Rating System (HERS)
Requirements for New Construction
Because more efficient buildings reduce stress on our
electricity grid and natural gas supplies while saving
money and resources for our citizens, the City of
Fayetteville adopted the 2009 International Energy
Conservation Code (IECC) for residential structures
on July 17, 2012.
The 2009 IECC scope includes residential single-
family housing and multifamily housing three stories
or less above grade.
Compliance with the code for new residential
construction, additions, and substantial remodels will
be required as of September 3, 2012.
All new residential construction shall have a home
energy rating completed by an independent RESNET
certified home energy rater, or equivalent, prior to
the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy.
Additions, alterations, and renovations to existing
residential structures shall comply with the
standards of the 2009 IECC, but will not be required
to provide a Home Energy Rating or post a decal.
The Residential Energy Services Network
(RESNET) is a not-for-profit, membership
corporation and a recognized national standards-
making body for building energy efficiency rating
and certification systems in the United States.
HOME ENERGY RATING SYSTEM (HERS)
The HERS, or Home Energy Rating System,
developed by RESNET, is the nationally recognized
system for inspecting and calculating a home’s
energy performance and determining what
improvements can make the home more efficient. It
does not make the energy-related requirements of
the code more stringent; rather, it measures the
performance of what is constructed to ensure it
meets the adopted 2009 IECC.
Revision Date 2/6/2015 Page 2 of 3
The HERS Index is a numerical scale, with 100 as
the relative value of a home built to the 2006 IECC
Energy Code. A HERS Index of 65, for example,
means that the home uses about 35% less energy
than a code-built, or reference home with an index
of 100. An inefficient home may have a HERS
Index well above 100.
The HERS rater will require
Scale drawings of the floor plan, including
window and door locations, ceiling heights, and
mechanical equipment locations.
Exterior wall sections
Slab insulation details
Foundation wall sections
Insulation type and R-values for walls, ceilings
and floors
Heating and air equipment
o Type, capacity, & efficiency
o Ductwork location and R-value
Window and door schedule
o U-factors
o SHGC values
Water heater
o Type, capacity, & efficiency
Other energy feature information, such as solar
hot water heaters, photovoltaic panels, passive
solar design, etc.
Projected Rating
It is strongly recommended that a rater perform
energy modeling and obtain a projected rating
BEFORE framing begins. The HERS rater
performs a pre-construction plan review and energy
modeling to determine whether the project as
proposed will meet performance requirements of the
2009 IECC. The rater analyzes energy feature
options and helps the builder select the most cost-
effective mix of options to achieve 2009 IECC
compliance plus whatever additional level of energy
performance may be desired.
Pre-Drywall Inspections
Thermal Bypass Inspection: Identifies areas
that may cause building air infiltration failure at
final test-out
Insulation Inspection: Verifies and grades wall
and floor insulation
Window/Door Inspection: Verifies installation
and specifications
HVAC Duct Testing At Rough-in: Avoids
duct leakage failure at final inspection
Final Inspection and Testing
Duct Leakage Test: A special fan unit is
attached to a return air plenum, the supply
registers are taped off, and the duct system is
then pressurized to a standard level. This test
gives the Total Duct Leakage. Duct leakage to
outside is potentially a very large loss of energy
when supply ducts leak. Leaking return ducts
are a source of indoor air pollution, pulling
unconditioned, contaminated air into the home.
Duct leakage tests can also be performed at
rough-in, prior to a framing inspection, which
will allow for easy access to correct any
deficiencies. However, if modifications are
made to the HVAC system, damage occurs, or
visual inspection indicates lack of proper sealing
at the final inspection, a second test may be
required at the final inspection.
Blower Door Test: This test measures the
leakiness of the building envelope. The house is
depressurized to a standard amount using a
powerful calibrated fan in an exterior door
opening. A digital pressure gauge measures the
volume of air being moved at that pressure. A
target level of air tightness for a home is no
more than 0.35 Natural Air Changes per Hour
(NACH).

Mechanical Equipment Verification
Ceiling Insulation Inspection
Major Appliance Inspection
Generate Confirmed Rating
Test results and as-built data are entered into the
modeling software and the final HERS index score is
generated along with confirmation that requirements
of the 2009 IECC have been met.
Documents and Certificates
The HERS rater will issue a Certificate of Compliance
to the City and the Owner/Builder in order for certain
inspections, such as framing and a final, to be
scheduled.
Performance Testing & Labeling
Residential developments that utilize the exact same
floor plan multiple times shall have a Home Energy
Rating completed on a minimum of 20% of the
residential units. Sampling protocol must conform to
RESNET standards.
This brochure presents an overview of the Home
Energy Rating System. For more details, visit
www.resnet.us
The City of Fayetteville will offer information covering
the new requirements related to the 2009 IECC in
August 2012.

2009 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC)
General Information
Because more efficient buildings reduce stress on
our electricity grid and natural gas supplies while
saving money and resources for our citizens, the
City of Fayetteville adopted the 2009 International
Energy Conservation Code (IECC) for residential
structures on July 17, 2012.
The 2009 IECC scope includes residential single-
family housing and multifamily housing three
stories or less above grade.
Compliance with the code for new residential
construction, additions, and substantial remodels
will be required as of September 3, 2012.
New Construction projects will require testing by a
RESNET Certified Home Energy Rater. See the
HERS informational brochure. It is strongly
recommended that a rater perform energy
modeling and obtain a projected rating BEFORE
framing begins.
The 2009 IECC is designed to save the consumer
in utility costs.
An analysis comparing the same 1,824 sq. ft.
structure constructed under both the 2003 IECC and
the 2009 IECC estimated an annual energy cost
savings of $267 for the gas home and $344 for the
electric home with the new code.
The additional cost for building to the higher
efficiency standards was $2,049 or, amortized over
a 30 year loan, $132 annually. This represents a
net average annual energy savings for the home
built to 2009 IECC standards of $135 for the gas
heated home and $209 for the electric heated
home.

2. Sealing Requirements
Building Envelope
• Sealed with caulking materials or closed with
gasketing systems
• Joints and seams sealed or taped or covered with a
moisture vapor-permeable wrapping material
• Seal all floor and ceiling penetrations
Recessed Lighting Fixtures
All recessed luminaires shall be IC rated and
labeled as meeting ASTM E 283 when tested at
1.57 psf (75 Pa) pressure differential with no more
than 2.0 cfm of air movement from the conditioned
space to the ceiling cavity and sealed with a gasket
or caulk between the housing and interior wall or
ceiling covering.
3. Ductwork Requirements
• All ducts outside thermal envelope shall be
verified as sealed by a tightness test. Testing is
not required if all ducts and air handler are inside
the thermal envelope.
• Supply ducts in attics must be insulated to R-8.
• All other ducts outside thermal envelope must be
insulated to R-6.
4. Lighting
A minimum of 50 percent of the permanently
installed lighting fixtures shall use high-efficacy
lamps (light bulbs).
5. Trade-off Credits
Trade-off credit for high-efficiency HVAC will no
longer be allowed.
6. Performance Testing & Labeling
All new residential construction shall have a Home
Energy Rating completed by an independent
RESNET certified home energy rater, or equivalent,
prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy.
See www.resnet.us
Until the home is occupied, a decal shall be
posted in a very prominent location near the
front entry showing the estimated monthly utility
cost.
A permanent decal shall be posted on or in the
electrical distribution panel that lists the R-values
of the insulation in the ceiling/roof, walls,
foundation and ducts, outside the conditioned
space. Also, the decal shall list U-factors for
windows, the types and efficiencies of heating,
cooling, and water heating equipment.
Additions, alterations, and renovations to existing
residential structures shall comply with the standards
of the 2009 IECC, but will not be required to provide
a Home Energy Rating or post a decal.
COMPLIANCE PATHS
Prescriptive Path: (Only for additions and
remodels) The IECC has a single table of
requirements for insulation R-values and window
and door U-factors.
Total Building Envelope Path: UA (U factor
multiplied by area using REScheck software) Based
on the prescriptive U-factor table, this path allows
trade-offs whereby some energy efficiency
measures can fall below code requirements if
balanced by other measures that exceed code
requirements.
Simulated Performance Path: This path allows
compliance if the home has a calculated annual
energy consumption (or energy cost) equal to or less
than that of a standard reference design that just
meets the code’s prescriptive requirements. This
path allows for crediting energy efficiency measures
Revision Date 2/6/2015 Page 3 of 3
not accounted for in the other paths, such as
renewable energy measures. This path is the most
flexible for the builder.
This brochure presents an overview of the main
changes in the 2009 IECC. For more details on all of
the 2009 IECC requirements, visit
