1 Incorporating LID into Historic Building Preservation in an Urban Setting Susan Donaldson, University of Nevada Cooperative Extension Lynell Garfield, City of Reno

2 McKinley Park School Built in 1909 On National Register of Historic Places since 1985

5 Issues at historical site Façade damaged by rain drip off splashing and turf irrigation spray heads Moisture issues in basement of building Roof runoff to basement sump currently pumped to sanitary sewer ADA parking lot requested New west end stairs requested

6 Funding Two grants received by City of Reno: EPA/NDEP 319(h) grant Leveraged against local Truckee River Fund grant

7 LID project components: Rainwater capture Snow slide clips and rain gutters Rainwater transport Impervious channel at base of building Rainwater infiltration (low tech) Rain garden to east of McKinley building Rainwater infiltration (high tech) Pervious concrete lot Sustainable understanding Use of educational signage to encourage stewardship Sustainable industry Partnership and local pervious concrete trainings supporting City Of Reno Structural Controls Ordinance

8 BMP Sizing Using Design Guidance Worksheets Topography important! Roof shed of approximately square feet draining to each BMP as 100% imperviousness

9 Rain Garden Designed by CFA landscape architect Using Design Guidance Worksheets, garden was sized based upon rooftop runoff volume for 0.6 storm, WQv: 237 ft 3 ; Surface Area = 550 ft 2 ; 6 or less standing water Roof runoff from east side of courtyard and east roofshed diverted to rain garden Approximately 650 square foot depressed landscape area; two interconnected basins underlain with drain rock

20 June, 2010

21 October, inch storm

22

23 No runoff to river

24 May, 2011

25 Education Press releases Tours Signage Video

26 Issues Maintenance needed to keep culverts open Some ponding of water in concrete swales Plants require irrigation and routine maintenance Public still does not understand project

27 Pervious Concrete Parking Lot Pervious concrete parking lot on west side of building Receives runoff from west side of courtyard and west shedding south roof Safety: no puddling in storms or after snowmelt Industry partners/training Public outreach Signage to encourage locals to consider alternative hardscapes

28

29 First step infiltrometer tests

30 Central drain 4 ft wide and 3 ft deep added due to clay lens

31 Design, installation and maintenance of porosity of pervious concrete are very important in success of material

32

33 15-foot rolling screed (not vibrational)

34 6 pavement depth 6 to 48 of base Covered for 1 week

35 Construction BMPs also demonstrated

36

37 Infiltration rate = 5 gallons in 35 seconds through 12 ring Total installation cost = $135,000 1 rainstorm on June 6, 2011

38 Maintenance Vacuum sweep at least twice a year Avoid fine sediments on pervious concrete

39 Public Outreach Participation in public events McKinley Centennial Celebration reached 700+ people with design and stormwater message Interpretive signage On site and on Truckee River walkway Maintenance manuals For staff & industry Brochures For visitors Placement on Parks walking tour map of historic downtown Reno Trainings Concrete installers, design engineers, operations & maintenance staff

40 Centennial celebration

41 Pre-project training

42 What did we learn? Grant writing involving pervious concrete New material no estimates for cost at time of grant writing Design process with 5 departments, landscape plan development took 6 mos. Landscape project must avoid mature park trees On site recreation users and special events must remain unaffected during project phases

43 What did we learn? Economy and staffing shifts affect maintenance staff and availability Materials testing absent for pervious concrete; hard to convince engineers Additional geotech: very important, soils were made up of fill and inconsistent perc tests told just part of the story

44 Continued education and stewardship of projects will be needed. (ex. Adopt a Park)
