THE QUICK ANSWER
What to settle first.
For runoff observations around new flatwork, begin with the narrow task: compare old and new flow interfaces without inventing a solution. Use current Boise-area records, the actual written proposal and a named decision owner; do not infer a permit result, technical specification, price, coverage or provider approval from this guide.
AT A GLANCE
Three points to clarify.
Create a handoff record
Capture the decision, owner, evidence and next contact. For this article, the immediate reader goal is to recheck a changed layout.
Evidence to keep
Retain the dated source, the exact location or scope line, the person who supplied it and any unanswered qualification.
Decision boundary
Keep the log with the current scope documents. Ask the provider or responsible authority to confirm the project-specific result in writing.
01 / WORK THROUGH THE DECISION
1. Define the handoff event
Photos can document where water appeared without becoming a drainage design. For “Runoff question log for a revised patio footprint,” state what event begins the handoff, which area it covers and what the household expects to happen next.
The goal to recheck a changed layout works best when rainfall context is separated from flow entry. One milestone should not silently stand in for another permission or acceptance.
02 / WORK THROUGH THE DECISION
2. Assemble the handoff packet
Include the current scope, accepted revisions, relevant photos and the exact records obtained from EPA — Soak Up the Rain, City of Boise Planning and Development Services, Actual project documents and dated official records. Add product labels or official responses only when they belong to this project.
Index ponding area and discharge path with dates and contacts. Generic care language, a marketing page or an undated verbal statement should remain context rather than project proof.

3. Confirm receipt and open questions
This entry asks the household to compare old and new flow interfaces without inventing a solution. Read every restriction or unresolved item back to the named contact and record who will provide the missing answer.
A handoff receipt proves that information was exchanged; it does not prove the work is defect-free, a future claim is covered, a specific use is safe or an authority has approved the project.

4. Keep the record usable after the call
Store the Boise notes with the final dated scope, not in an isolated message thread. If later guidance changes, add a new revision and preserve the earlier record instead of overwriting history.
