3 Stormwater Control Measure Toolbox Bioretention Vegetated swales Green roofs Rainwater harvesting Permeable pavement Sand filter Catch basin insert Stormwater wetlands Detention/retention ponds What about in series? Proprietary devices?

4 Stormwater Proprietary Devices New systems introduced faster than researchers can research them. How well do they compare to traditional BMPs? Numerous and varying testing protocols across U.S. Unique opportunity between municipality, manufacturers, and independent Universities to implement field-scale studies.

24 Tree filter / bioretention install INLET (FROM PICP) OUTLET (TO STORM DRAIN)

25 Tree filter / bioretention install Outflow of tree filter connects to existing storm network

26 Monitoring Goals 1. Evaluate water quality and hydrologic treatment performance of both PICP-Filterra and standard Filterra proprietary devices a) North Carolina b) Virginia 2. Collect hydrologic data of PICP SCM for use in calibration of DRAINMOD

27 Monitoring Metrics Event Mean Concentrations (EMCs) Phosphorus (Total, Dissolved, Ortho-P) Nitrogen (TKN, NOx, Ammonia, TN, Total & Diss.) Total Suspended Solids Suspended Sediment Concentration Particle Size Distribution Specific Gravity Copper and Zinc (Total & Dissolved) ph Hydrology Flow rate Total volume time metrics

28 Preliminary Monitoring Results n < 15 for all water quality parameters Rainfall events sampled Range = 0.18 to 2.08 in. Median = 0.6 in.

29 BioPave TM Hydrology (PICP Portion) 93% Cumulative Volume Reduction Median volume reduction 98% (Range %) Median peak time delay ratio = 9.1 (past targets for bioretention of 6 1 ) 1 Davis, A. P. (2008). Field Performance of Bioretention: Hydrology Impacts. Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 13(2), 90.

30 Preliminary Monitoring Results Sediment, Standalone Unit TSS TSS (EPA Method #160.2) SSC (ASTM Method D ) Differences in sampling and analysis (SSC includes more sand-sized particles) Consistently low sediment in outflow (filtration mechanism) OutEMC = (P) Pr > t =

35 Preliminary Monitoring Results Metals, Standalone Unit Copper Zinc

36 Buffering Effect of Amtrak Retrofits

37 Preliminary Monitoring Results Particle Size Distribution, Standalone Unit

38 Low Nutrient Influent Loadings (North Inlet) Why?

39 Preliminary Monitoring Results NO 2/3 -N TN TKN TP TDP TSS Standalone Filterra Permeable Pavement -66% 30% 41% 28% 90% -130% 7% 33% 32% 82%

40 Conclusions Influent concentrations LOW for Filterra Opportunity to examine effluent concentrations relative to ambient water quality standards Volume reduction and filtration hypothesized to provide additional benefits Standalone device sediment, metals removal (% basis) is high ph buffering seems apparent Load reductions observed for both systems BioPave load reduction appears greater than standalone system

41 Field monitoring can be challenging Maintenance is key to permeable pavement component City cooperation is key in field projects Not all urban watersheds are created equally Lessons Learned
