Book Bench Scale Development and Field Testing of a Partial Exfiltration Trench PER for Controlling Highway Runoff Quality

Download or read book Bench Scale Development and Field Testing of a Partial Exfiltration Trench PER for Controlling Highway Runoff Quality written by John Joseph Sansalone and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The physical-chemical characterization and control of highway storm water and snowmelt runoff represent very significant challenges to the Ohio Department of Transportation. This research examined specific physical, chemical and hydrologic aspects of storm water and snow from a series of highway sites around Cincinnati, Ohio. Examination of storm water focused on a previously developed experimental site located on southbound I-75 in Cincinnati. A series of ten highway snowmelt sites located around the Cincinnati area, were also examined. A control site for both rainfall and snowfall was located in urban Cincinnati, but located several kilometers from I-75 to avoid any direct exposure to highway influences. This research focused on a passive structural best management practice, a partial exfiltration reactor (PER) configured as a linear trench which was also located at the experimental site on southbound I-75. This system was examined for a series of discrete storm water events and was loaded directly by lateral pavement sheet flow, qsf from the I-75 pavement.

Book Evaluation and Management of Highway Runoff Water Quality

Download or read book Evaluation and Management of Highway Runoff Water Quality written by G. Kenneth Young and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this manual is to gather and to synthesize the results of past documentation and research on highway stormwater runoff into a single-volume user's manual on water quality impact assessment and mitigation. The manual will be useful to highway designers and environmental professionals by presenting the available and appropriate impact prediction and mitigation tools for use during highway project planning and development activities. The development of this document had three components: a literature search on existing research results and operational findings on highway stormwater runoff that identifies existing water quality impact assessment and mitigation techniques; interviews with highway practitioners concerning the use of research results including maintenance of mitigation measures; and synthesis of the accumulated information into this single-volume, practical guidance manual. This manual is intended to be a self-contained desk reference for highway practitioners. An extensive bibliography is included, and the mathematical nomenclature is unified among the sections.

Book Exfiltration Trench for Post Construction Storm Water Management for Linear Transportation Projects

Download or read book Exfiltration Trench for Post Construction Storm Water Management for Linear Transportation Projects written by Gayle F. Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ODOT is required by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) to implement post-construction storm water Best Management Practices (BMPs) for linear transportation systems that are sold after March 10, 2006. Several BMPs are candidates for this application (Vegetated Bio-filters Devices, Infiltration Devices, and Detention Devices). Of these the Exfiltration Trench Infiltration Device appear to be an attractive choice due to manageable construction costs and constructability and ease of maintenance and operation but, design optimization and performance verification are needed. STUDY OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this research will include: 1) examining the design, durability, and construction of the Exfiltration Trench; 2) proposing revisions to the Exfiltration Trench to provide an optimum filter medium design to capture the first flush; 3) developing a maintenance manual; and 4) examining any and all possible safety concerns.

Book A Guide for Best Management Practice BMP Selection in Urban Developed Areas

Download or read book A Guide for Best Management Practice BMP Selection in Urban Developed Areas written by Task Committee for Evaluating Best Management Practices and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide examines permanent structural techniques, or Best Management Practices (BMPs), which can be used for retrofitting the stormwater management systems in existing developed areas. The advantages and disadvantages of each technique are explained to help engineering professionals select the BMP (or series of BMPs) best suited for removing pollutants from stormwater runoff at a particular location. The design factors considered include land availability, type of pollutant to be removed, groundwater levels, soil types, BMP costs, maintenance costs, and desired pollutant removal efficiency. The BMPs evaluated are ponds, alum treatment systems, constructed wetlands, sand filters, baffle boxes, inlet devices, vegetated swales, buffer strips, and infiltration/exfiltration trenches. A BMP Selection Guide, in an easy-to-use matrix format, aids in the decision-making process for BMP selections. Five design factors and five pollutant types (total suspended solids, total phosphorus, total nitrogen, heavy metals, and floating trash) are evaluated for each BMP in the matrix. BMPs presented in this guide were chosen based upon common availability, ease of maintenance, and an established track record.
