Stormwater NPDES—Early Years Characterization of urban runoff Focused on demonstrating
reductions of pollutant loads End-of-pipe treatment vs. BMPs Design criteria for conventional
treatment facilities “Do what you can, where you
can.”
![Page 6: Low Impact Development for Stormwater Treatment and Hydrograph Modification Management in California Dan Cloak, Principal Dan Cloak Environmental Consulting](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649cfa5503460f949cb94f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Start at the Source Preceded by San
Francisco Bay RWQCB “Staff Recommendations” (1993)
Emphasis on reducing imperviousness to reduce pollutant loading
Addressed need to identify site-design alternatives
Integrates urban design and site design
No regulatory mandate

Imperviousness Importance of
Imperviousness (1994) Empirical relationship
between watershed imperviousness and stream degradation
Awareness of the effects of small storms and increased runoff frequency
Peak flow control over a range of storm sizes
Continuous simulation

Meeting NPDES Requirements LID is a means to achieve
compliance with NPDES treatment and flow-control requirements
Focus public resources on helping small developments, infill, and redevelopment to comply with NPDES requirements
Be pro-active

NPDES requirementsin a nutshell Minimize imperviousness Control pollutant sources Treat stormwater prior to
discharge from the site Match peaks and durations to
pre-project conditions (HMP) Maintain treatment and flow-
control facilities in perpetuity

Integrated Management Practices
Detain and treat runoff
Typically fit into setbacks and landscaped areas
Accommodate diverse plant palettes
Low-maintenance Don’t breed
mosquitoes Can be attractive
Soil surface must be 6-12" lower than surrounding pavement
Require 3-4 feet of vertical “head”
Can affect decisions about placement of buildings, roadways, and parking
Advantages Challenges

Implementing LID — Goals
Make it easier for applicants to prepare submittals
Make it easier for municipal staff to review submittals for compliance
Promote consistent and fair implementation countywide
Integrate LID, treatment, and hydrograph modification management requirements
![Page 28: Low Impact Development for Stormwater Treatment and Hydrograph Modification Management in California Dan Cloak, Principal Dan Cloak Environmental Consulting](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649cfa5503460f949cb94f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
LID Site Design Procedure
1. Divide the site into Drainage Management Areas
2. Use landscape to disperse and retain runoff where possible
3. Route drainage from remaining areas to bioretention facilities
4. Check facility locations for available space and hydraulic head
![Page 29: Low Impact Development for Stormwater Treatment and Hydrograph Modification Management in California Dan Cloak, Principal Dan Cloak Environmental Consulting](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649cfa5503460f949cb94f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Four Types of Areas1. Self-treating areas2. Self-retaining areas3. Areas draining to a self-retaining area4. Areas draining to a treatment facility
Only one surface type within each area
Many-to-one relationship between drainage areas and facilities
Drainage Management Areas
![Page 30: Low Impact Development for Stormwater Treatment and Hydrograph Modification Management in California Dan Cloak, Principal Dan Cloak Environmental Consulting](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649cfa5503460f949cb94f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Self-treating areas
Must be 100% pervious Must drain offsite Must not drain on to impervious areas Must not receive drainage from
impervious areas Must not drain to treatment facilities No treatment or flow control required No further calculations required
![Page 31: Low Impact Development for Stormwater Treatment and Hydrograph Modification Management in California Dan Cloak, Principal Dan Cloak Environmental Consulting](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649cfa5503460f949cb94f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Self-retaining areas
Berm or depress grade to retain 1" rain
Set area drain inlets above grade Amend soils Terrace mild slopes Have limited applicability in
Dense developments Hillsides
![Page 33: Low Impact Development for Stormwater Treatment and Hydrograph Modification Management in California Dan Cloak, Principal Dan Cloak Environmental Consulting](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649cfa5503460f949cb94f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Areas draining to self-retaining areas Impervious areas
can drain on to self-retaining areas
Example: Roof leaders directed to lawn or landscape
Maximum ratio is 2:1 for treatment; 1:1 for flow control
No maintenance verification required

Construction Issues Runoff from the intended tributary
area must flow to the facility. The surface reservoir must fill to its
intended volume during high inflows. Runoff must filter rapidly through
the soil layer. Filtered runoff must infiltrate into the
native soil to the extent possible. Remaining runoff must be captured and
drained to daylight or a storm drain.
![Page 51: Low Impact Development for Stormwater Treatment and Hydrograph Modification Management in California Dan Cloak, Principal Dan Cloak Environmental Consulting](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649cfa5503460f949cb94f/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

Ensuring flow to the facility
Runoff may enter by sheet flow or be piped.
Roof leaders can be piped directly or spill across pavement
