Stormwater Management StandardsStormwater Management Standards
1. No new untreated storm water discharges allowed
2. Post-development peak flow discharge rates < pre-development peak rates
3. Minimize loss of recharge to groundwater
4. Remove 80% of average annual total suspended solids (TSS) load (post development)
5. Discharges from areas with higher potential pollutant loads require use of specific BMPs
![Page 23: Stormwater Management Eric Winkler, Ph.D. and Susan Guswa, P.E. Center for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy University of Massachusetts Annual Conference](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e425503460f94b34a1a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Stormwater Management StandardsStormwater Management Standards
6. Storm water discharges to critical area require use of approved BMPs designed to treat 1 inch runoff volume (post development)
7. Redevelopment sites must meet the Standards
8. Construction sites must utilize sediment and erosion controls
9. Storm water systems must have an operation and management plan

Storm Event Criteria to Sample2 More than 0.1 inch of total rainfall.2 A minimum inter-event period of 6 hours, where cessation of
flow from the system begins the inter-event period.2 Obtain flow-weighted composite samples covering a minimum of
70 % of the total storm flow, including as much of the first 20 % of the storm as possible.
2 A minimum of 10 water quality samples (i.e., 10 influent and 10 effluent samples) should be collected per storm event.
Determining a Representative Data Set2 At least 50 % of the total annual rainfall must be sampled, for a
minimum of 15 inches of precipitation and at least 15, but preferably 20, storms.

Stormwater Sampling Locations– Sampling locations for stormwater BMPs should be
taken at inlet and outlet.
Sampling Methods– Programmable automatic flow samplers with
continuous flow measurements should be used
– Grab samples used for: pH, temperature, cyanide, total phenols, residual chlorine, oil and grease, total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), E coli, total coliform, fecal coliform and streptococci, and enterococci.
Stormwater Flow Measurement Methods– Primary and secondary flow measurement devices are required.

Performance Verification - TARPPerformance Verification - TARP
Calculating BMP Efficiencies (ASCE BMP Efficiencies Task 3.1)
Process efficiencies or removal rates should be determined from influent and effluent contaminant concentration and flow data.
– Efficiency Ratio, – Summation of Loads, – Regression of Loads, – Mean Concentration, and – Efficiency of Individual Storm Loads.Note: The Efficiency Ratio method is preferred.
