Maryland Environmental Site Design PresentationTheodore Scott
Overview presentation by Theodore E. Scott, PE, CPESC, LEED AP on recent changes to the Maryland Stormwater Management Design Manual that requires the use of Environmental Site Design (ESD).
Most Urban growth is taking place in informal settlements
where government is unwilling or unable to provide wastewater
services. Effective wastewater treatment is so
expensive that is rarely achieved in practice, particularly
in the fast urban centers of developing countries. The
sewerage system must be effective and adequate enough
to receive different types of wastewater discharges. Onsite
systems must be designed for pollution control and recovery
of resources. Improved design, construction, operation
and maintenance of our onsite systems are essential,
especially the wastewater treatment plants. One of
the most important operations in wastewater treatment
and also very effective in treatment system is aeration of
sludge which occurred in aeration basins. Although the
aeration basins are reinforced concrete structures, the
corrosion has attacked them. The main objective of this
study is to analyze and defeat the cause of corrosion in
one of the largest Wastewater Treatment Plant (WTP) in
Egypt. A mathematical model to simulate the problem
based on governing equations of vortex motion is achieved
and a repairing technology to correct the corrosion
is proposed. Moreover, the study assists in choosing the
suitable design to avoid this problem in further projects.
Water supplies in the Permian Basin are tightening. 240 counties in Texas are now designated as primary natural disaster areas due to drought. Water recycling technologies are numerous with rapid innovation.We’ve catalogued over 50 different processes used to purify wastewater. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. Freshwater availability, waste disposal costs, and fracturing fluid specifications are just a sample of factors that influence decisions. In this presentation, delivered at the DUG Permian Basin Conference on May 21, 2014, Wilson Perumal & Company Consultant John Hughes presents key elements to consider when developing a comprehensive water management strategy.

Quality Issues & Low Impact Development
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
3. Current Local Stormwater Focus
Peak rate control for large storm events
No consideration of small frequent
storms
No evaluation of pollutants found in
stormwater
No evaluation of the effectiveness of
stormwater systems to remove
pollutants
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
7. Water Quality Impacts
Lawns to edge of water –
Increased nutrient loads
Connected Impervious
Areas
Results of Non-Point Source Pollutants
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
8. How we design today
Stone berm across level No provisions to ensure long
bottom of basin does NOT flow paths in basin
create a proper forebay
This cell may trap some
coarse sediment but will
NOT prevent resuspension of
sediments
Berms of modified riprap do
not function well at trapping
of fine sediments (void
spaces are too large)
Flows may “short circuit”
parts of basin due to location
of inlet & outlet structures Forebay will not
trap sediments
over long term
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
9. What we see today
Outlet set too close
to inlet – flows will
short circuit –
inadequate
treatment for water
quality
Riprap Berm
Does Not
create forebay
Inadequate Forebay
– No Depressed
Sediment Storage -
Lack of
Maintenance
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
10. Why should we Assess Pollutant
Loads?
Are permit performance standards being
met?
Will there be short or long term adverse
impacts to receiving waterways?
Are the treatment systems designed
correctly?
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
11. How do you Assess Pollutant Loads?
SLAMM
Source Loading and Management Model
P8
Program for Predicting Pollutant Particle

The Simple Method
Estimates pollutant loads for urban areas
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
12. The Simple Method
Equation developed by Tom Schueler in
1987 to estimate pollutant loads on an
annual basis
Requires easily obtainable information
to use:
Annual Precipitation
Pollutant Concentrations
Percent Impervious Cover per land use type
Watershed Area
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
13. The Simple Method
L = 0.226(P)(Pj)(Rv)(C)(A) where:
L = Pollutant Load in Pounds
P = Rainfall Depth (inches)
Pj = Factor that corrects P for storms that produce no
runoff, use Pj = 0.9
Rv = Runoff Coefficient, fraction of rainfall that turns to
runoff, Rv = 0.05 + 0.009(I)
I = Site Impervious Coverage (percent)
C = Flow weighted mean concentration of pollutant (mg/l)
A = Area of Site (acres)
0.226 = Unit Conversion Factor

16. How do the Systems Work?
LID Systems:
Filtration thru soil columns,
Uptake by vegetated biota,
Settlement due to slow flow velocities, and
Infiltration into underlying soils,
Biological and chemical reactions within the
soil media and plants assimilation.
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
17. Pollutant Removal Efficiencies
I. Event Mean Concentration (EMC)
II. Mass Efficiency
EMC gives equal weight to large & small
storms and averages incoming & outgoing
concentrations for all storms
Mass efficiency is affected by the
volume of water in the system & losses
that occur within the practice, such as
evapotranspiration & infiltration
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
18. Pollutant Removal Efficiencies
2. Mass Efficiency
Mass efficiency is affected by the volume of
water in the system & losses that occur within the
practice, such as evapotranspiration & infiltration
Method is based upon a summation of incoming &
outgoing loads and is considered the more accurate
method
Not easily applied for a proposed project due to
lack of monitoring data
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
19. Caveats of “Removal Efficiencies”
Removal efficiency is closely related to
influent quality. I.E. the “dirtier” the influent
water is higher the pollutant removal rate will
likely be as a percent.
Removal efficiency rates may encourage
designs which do not address ‘source’ control.
A system which has a ‘high’ removal efficiency
rate may still be discharging high pollutant
concentrations in the effluent.
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
20. Caveats of “Removal Efficiencies”
Many Best Management Practices have not
been monitored long enough to establish valid
data to determine a supportable removal rate.
Removal efficiency does not always account
for how much water is treated. If a system
is bypassed due to clogging, a stated removal
rate is not likely to be valid.
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
21. Caveats of “Removal Efficiencies”
When using ‘median’ removal rates, it is
imperative to design the treatment system
fully in accord with the specifications as
provided for in the State’s Water Quality or
Storm Water Manual.
I.E. A forebay for a Wet Extended Detention
Pond needs to be 4’ deep and contain 10% of
the WQV within the forebay. A 1’ deep
forebay does not work.
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
22. IRREDUCIBLE CONCENTRATIONS
“If pollutant concentrations in the influent approach
the “Irreducible” concentrations noted below, then it
is not possible to change the effluent concentrations
very much (Schueler)”
Irreducible Pollutant Concentrations (CWP)
Water Quality Parameter Irreducible Concentration
Total Suspended Solids 20 to 40 mg/l
Total Phosphorous 0.15 to 0.2 mg/l
Total Nitrogen 1.9 mg/l
Nitrate-Nitrogen 0.7 mg/l
TKN 1.2 mg/l
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
25. Pollutant Removal
LID systems are most effective when
used as part of a “Treatment Train”.
This is a system when more than one
system is used in series to treat runoff.
As you can observe on the prior tables,
by using multiple treatment systems,
significant pollutant removal rates can
easily be achieved.
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
26. Pollutant Removal
After const., the goal is met by the
utilization of LID systems to trap
sediment as many other pollutants are
attached to soil particles.
Proper design and construction is very
important, especially for infiltration
systems
8/24/2010 Trinkaus Engineering, LLC
27. Bioretention

groundwater recharge &
water quality

underlying soils
- Set ponding depth per
soil type to fully drain
