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 Vegetated Biofilter for Post Construction Storm Water Management for Linear Transportation Projects

Download or read book Vegetated Biofilter for Post Construction Storm Water Management for Linear Transportation Projects written by Gayle F. Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vegetated biofilter is a low impact development technique that can be integrated into stormwater management of linear transportation systems and capitalize on the natural environment to mitigate stormwater. A 4 ft (1.2 m) wide by 14 ft (4.3 m) long prototype vegetated biofilter was constructed on a moveable frame. Artificial runoff was delivered to each of three grass beds for comprehensive tests at slopes and flow rates as follows: 8:1, medium; 4:1, medium; 2:1, medium; and 2:1, high. The medium and high flows represented storm runoff events typical in Ohio. First, baseline tests were performed to obtain concentrations of constituents native to the biofilter. Artificial runoff, formulated with metals, native soil, and motor oil, was applied to one bed at a "high" concentration for the first part of the event, followed by a "medium" concentration; a second bed received "medium" followed by "low" concentration runoff, and the third bed received "low" concentration followed by tap water. During the simulated storm events, samples were obtained from the inlet, surface runoff, and underdrain and analyzed for total and dissolved metals, TSS, and oil and grease. Prior to and at the end of testing, cores were extracted from the bed, separated into soil, roots and grass, and each component analyzed for metal content per mass of material. The two beds receiving the initial high and medium concentration flow performed well and removal of 7 total metals and TSS was above 75%. Removal of oil ranged from 30% to over 90%. The bed receiving low concentration runoff, which was near the baseline levels for constituents, had mixed performance of removals ranging from none to above 90%, illustrating the difficulty of any BMP to treat a relatively clean influent. Metals above background levels were found primarily in the first half (7 ft, 2.1 m) of each bed. Soil particles in the influent flow of the first test in each bed, tagged with La, were not resuspended in subsequent tests and were not measured at any significant concentration in the outlet surface flow.

Book Storm Water Management for Construction Activities

Download or read book Storm Water Management for Construction Activities written by US EPA and published by CRC-Press. This book was released on 1993-06-28 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide shows you how to develop and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan specifically designed for your construction site. It should answer any questions you have regarding the NPDES General Permit for Storm Water Discharges from Construction Activities that are classified as "Associated with Industrial Activity" (referred to as EPA's Baseline Construction General Permit). Step-by-step guidelines and checklists walk you through the process of setting up your plan, which makes the book invaluable for consultants, regulators, and construction managers and engineers.

Book Urban Runoff Quality Management

Download or read book Urban Runoff Quality Management written by Water Environment Federation and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual comprises a holistic view of urban runoff quality management. For the beginner, who has little previous exposure to urban runoff quality management, the manual covers the entire subject area from sources and effects of pollutants in urban runoff through the development of management plans and the design of controls. For the municipal stormwater management agency, guidance is given for developing a water quality management plan that takes into account receiving water use objectives, local climatology, regulation, financing and cost, and procedures for comparing various types of controls for suitability and cost effectiveness in a particular area. This guidance will also assist owners of large-scale urban development projects in cost-effectively and aesthetically integrating water quality control to the drainage plan. The manual is also directed to designers who desire a self-contained unit that discusses the design of specific quality controls for urban runoff.
