1 New York State Water Resources Institute Using Green Infrastructure to Manage Combined Sewer Overflows and Flooding Emily Vail Hudson River Estuary Program NYS Department of Environmental Conservation Cornell University NYS Water Resources Institute Revitalizing Hudson Riverfronts Hudson, NY April 13, 2012 NYS Department of Environmental Conservation
2 Presentation Outline Hudson River Estuary Program Combined sewer overflows Impact of stormwater Green infrastructure Municipal programs and economic benefits
3 Hudson River Estuary Program Core Mission Ensure clean water Protect and restore fish, wildlife, and their habitats Provide water recreation and river access Adapt to climate change Conserve world-famous scenery
4 Importance of Watershed Thinking It s important to think about stormwater management from a watershed perspective, because stormwater travels to waterbodies (and can lead to problems if not managed well) The land and water that drain to a common outlet From NEMO
5 What is a Combined Sewer System? Riverkeeper, 2011
6 What is a Separated Sewer System? Riverkeeper, 2011
7 CSOs on the Hudson Albany Pool - Albany, Rensselaer, Troy, East Greenbush, Bethlehem, & Watervliet Hudson Catskill Kingston Poughkeepsie Newburgh Yonkers
8 Overflowing Sewage Wet weather leads to overflows Degrades water quality Impacts public health, water recreation Sanitary sewer overflows in Poughkeepsie
9 Stormwater Carries Pollutants Water quality problems Sediment Nutrients Road salt Oil/grease Trash Water quantity problems Flooding Erosion
10 What is Green Infrastructure? Different approach to stormwater - natural and engineered systems that mimic nature Manage runoff by maintaining or restoring natural hydrology allow stormwater to infiltrate and be used by plants
11 Gray vs. Green Infrastructure
12 Green Infrastructure Regional and local scales Includes low impact development projects Provides multiple benefits Slows the flow of runoff Keeps it out of the storm sewer system Removes pollutants
13 Green Infrastructure Requirements August Updated New York State Stormwater Design Manual Chapter 5 Green Infrastructure New development reduce runoff using green infrastructure first
14 NYS Stormwater Design Manual 1. Planning A. Preserving natural areas B. Reducing impervious surface cover 2. Green infrastructure practices Avoid stormwater Reduce stormwater Manage stormwater
15 Green Infrastructure Planning Preserve natural areas reduce disturbance, conservation design Reduce impervious cover Traditional Subdivision Conservation Subdivision Dutchess County Greenway Guide
16 Green Infrastructure Practices Natural features and engineered practices that infiltrate runoff on-site Treat stormwater closer to where the rain falls Examples on HREP website: lands/58930.html
17 Rain Gardens & Bioretention Areas Shallow depression of soil and plants, filters runoff and slows its flow Ulster County Dept. of the Environment, Kingston Vassar College, Poughkeepsie
18 Green Roofs Layers of soil and vegetation on rooftops that capture runoff Rensselaer County Master Gardeners shed, Wynantskill Marist College, Poughkeepsie
19 Porous Pavement Paved surfaces that allow stormwater to infiltrate Sojourner Truth Ulster Landing County Park, Saugerties NYS Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation, Staatsburg
20 Rain Barrels or Cisterns Capture and store rooftop runoff to re-use for watering plants and other uses Children's Garden at Boyce Park, Wingdale Greenburgh Nature Center, Westchester
21 Stream Buffer Restoration Vegetation along streams improves stream health, filters/slows polluted runoff, many other benefits Wallkill River, Gardiner Whaley Lake Stream, Beekman
22 Other Green Infrastructure Practices Disconnecting rooftop runoff Stormwater planters Vegetated swales Tree planting/street trees Stream daylighting NYS Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation, Staatsburg Ardsley, Westchester
23 Benefits of Green Infrastructure Manage stormwater (quality and quantity) Recharge groundwater Reduce CSOs, reduce wastewater treatment costs Cool urban areas energy savings Provide wildlife habitat Improve air quality Improve human health Increase land values Beautify neighborhoods
24 Implementing Green Infrastructure Homeowners, watershed groups, neighborhoods, regional planners, businesses, and Municipalities Planning Codes/ordinances to encourage, incentivize, or require Demonstration sites SUNY Orange, Middletown
25 Green Infrastructure to Mitigate CSOs New York City Philadelphia, PA Syracuse, NY Portland, OR Seattle, WA Milwaukee, WI Kansas City, MO * Cities highlighted in NRDC s Rooftops to Rivers II
26 Green Infrastructure Saves Money New York City (over 20 years) Overall cost: Green - $5.3 billion Gray - $6.8 billion Per gallon of CSO reduced: Green - ~$0.45 Gray - ~$0.62 Philadelphia (over 40 years) Green - $2,846.4 million in benefits Gray - $122.0 million in benefits
27 What can you do? Plan for GI Incorporate into CSO Long Term Control Plans Review codes/ordinances Better Site Design Worksheet Visit local GI practices Submit projects for website Build demo projects Restore stream buffers with Trees for Tribs
