8 Bioretention
9 Applications/Types Bioretention Water Quality or Dry Swale Urban Bioretention Residential Rain Garden
10 State Performance Standards State Regulatory Performance Standard 1 BMP Performance Credit 1 DC On-site retention of runoff from 1.2 rainfall Runoff Volume reduction DE MD NY VA Zero effective impervious for 2.7 rainfall (Resource Protection Event, RPE) On-site retention using ESD of runoff from 1.0 rainfall On-site retention of runoff from 90 th percentile rainfall (~ 1 ) Total Phosphorus Load Limit of 0.41 lbs/ac/yr (performance based on management of runoff from 1.0 rainfall) Runoff Volume Reduction Runoff Volume Reduction OR Impervious CN Reduction Runoff Volume Reduction Total TP Load Reduction (Runoff Volume + Pollutant Removal) WV On-site retention of runoff from 1.0 rainfall Runoff Volume Reduction 1 Some states may include watershed specific pollutant load reduction requirements for select parameters, e.g., TP or TSS, in addition to volume reduction.
11 Different Levels of BMP Design Level 1 Level 2 Good design to provide treatment, safety, functionality Includes design enhancements for runoff reduction and/or pollutant removal: Size, treatment volume Flow path Soil media depth Vegetation plan Bioretention = % Dry Swale = 40 60%
12 Bioretention Performance Credit State Level 1 Level 2 DC 60% of Storage Volume Provided 100% of Storage Volume Provided DE 50% of Retention Storage 100% of Retention Storage MD NY Treat Target Rainfall to meet ESD standards Volume Reduction = 100% of Retention Storage VA Volume Reduction = 40% TP Reduction = 25% Total Load Reduction = 55% Volume Reduction = 80% TP Reduction = 50% Total Load Reduction = 90% WV 60% for Design Volume Provided 100% for Design Volume Provided
13 Dry/Water Quality Swale Performance Credit State Level 1 Level 2 DC 60% of Storage Volume Provided DE 25% of Retention Storage (C/D Soils) 50% of Retention Storage (A/B Soils) MD Treat Target Rainfall to meet ESD standards NY? VA Volume Reduction = 40% TP Reduction = 20% Total Load Reduction = 52% Volume Reduction = 80% TP Reduction = 40% Total Load Reduction = 76% WV 55% for Design Volume Provided 100% for Design Volume Provided Red = different value from Bioretention
14 24 soil media No underdrain sump Bioretention: Level 1
15 Bioretention Level 2 -- Infiltration 36 soil media No underdrain Field-measured soil permeability 1 /hr.
16 Level 2 -- Infiltration Sump 36 soil media Sump below underdrain pipe (12 or drain within 48 hours)
17 Level 2 Upturned Elbow (Internal Water Storage Zone)
18 WV Bioretention Level 2 Extended Filtration
19 General Level 2 Sizing Increase Treatment Volume by 25% Tv from Spreadsheet x 1.25
20 Dry/Water Quality Swale Level 1 (VA) Level 2 (VA)
21 Keys to the Kingdom for Designers 1. Footprint on site 2. Credit for compliance 3. Design details
22 1. Footprint on Site Space available for stormwater treatment Right size for the practice possibility of splitting into individual cells Figuring out practices in series
23 Too Small!
24 Too Large!
25 Just Right (probably)
26 Sizing/Storage for Treatment Volume (Tv) η = 1.0 η = 0.25 η = 0.40 Treatment Volume (Tv) = (ponding* x 1.0) + (soil x 0.25) + (gravel x 0.40) Dry/Water Quality Swale Ponding = Storage behind check dams Some State-Specific Sizing Methods Apply
27 Increase Ponding Footprint: Extra Storage for Flood/Channel Protection 50% increase if ponding is 6 or less 25% increase if ponding is between 6 and 12 Additional Surface Ponding Additional Surface Ponding
28 2. Credit for Compliance State-specific Level 1/Level 2 or other performance system Size/storage volume provided Underdrain or no underdrain? If underdrain, use of sump or internal water storage Soil media depth
29 3. Design Details
30 Typical Design Features Pretreatment stone diaphragm (typ.) Ponding Depth = 6 12 Side Slopes = 3:1 max (recommended) Soil Media = Choker Layer = 2-4 of sand over 2 choker stone 4 6 Underdrain Pipes Underdrain Layer With 12 Stone Sump Below Underdrain Pipes (Level 2 Design) 12
31 1. Geometry 2. Getting Water In 3. Pretreatment 4. Soil Media 5. Separation Barrier Between Soil & Underdrain 6. Vegetation Selected Key Design Issues
32 1. Geometry: Long Flow Path, Good Treatment Goal: create a long flow path from inlet to outlet
33 Geometry: Short Flow Path, Less Treatment Outlet Last curb cut These practices lack of storage and treatment due to: Proximity of inflow to outflow Outlet structure flush with filter surface Direct (almost) conveyance from inlet to outlet
34 2. Options to Get Water In Curb Cuts Sheet Flow Pipe Flow
35 Water Can t Get In Notice Sediment?
36 Inflow Should Be Inevitable : e.g., 2 4 drop from pavement edge
37 3. Pretreatment Nature of pretreatment depends on size of bioretention area and type of flow it experiences Concentrated flow: two cell design with a small trapping forebay and level spreader Sheet flow: grass filter strip, stone diaphragm, stone ring berm 1. Forebay
38 Other Pretreatment (types) Forebay 2. Stone/RipRap Apron 3. Stone Flow Spreader 4. Grass Filter Strip 5. Grass Channel
39 Some State Specs Have Pre-Treatment Details (example: VA, curb inlets, concentrated flow)
40 4. Soil Media
41 Understand Objectives of Soil Media Maintain adequate soil permeability (saturated hydraulic conductivity, or Ksat), while... Providing enough fines to adsorb pollutants (e.g., phosphorus), while... Providing enough organic matter to support the intended vegetation, at least during initial plant establishment
42 Soil Media Specifications Loamy Course Sand < 10% Clay Silt + Clay = 10 to 20% Silica-Based Sand > 75% course or very course Organic = 3 to 5% dry weight basis (Walkley-Black Method) = peat moss, humus, compost, or equiv. Ksat = 1-2 inches/hour (new mix can be a lot more) Available Soil P = Low or Medium (Mehlich I or III test) Cation Exchange Capacity 5.0 meq/100 g Depth = inches, depending on Level1 or 2 (48 in tree planting holes) * See most recent Virginia Bioretention Spec #9 (2013) for most comprehensive discussion of soil media specifications
43 5. Separation Barrier Between Soil & Underdrain Filter Fabric
44 Use Transition Stone Instead
45 Soil Media Pea Gravel Over Underdrain Stone
46 6. Vegetation Bioretention Meadow - Heritage Baptist Church, Annapolis, MD
47 Vegetation: Too much, too little what s the intended palette?
48 Three Quick Principles for Bioretention Vegetation A. Select vegetation for site context B. Plan to fill up the filter bed surface area with vegetation C. Keep the plant palette simple and understandable (to maintenance crews, the public, etc.)
49 A. Context Institutional, Medium Visibility Public, High Visibility Small-Scale, Residential
50 Bio-Typologies Typology: The taxonomic classification of characteristics common to buildings or spaces PERENNIAL GARDEN TREE TURF PERENNIAL - SHRUB TREE SHRUB MULCH
51 Dry/Water Quality Swale Vegetation Can Vary Landscaped More Complicated More Maintenance Grass Simple Less Maintenance
52 B. Fill Surface Area Mix of Herbaceous, Shrubs Mulch is a temporary surface cover
53
54 C. Keep Plant Palette Simple 2 4 Species (in most cases) Plan should specify desired plant community/outcome and how maintenance can contribute to this outcome Think about how maintenance crews will distinguish intended plants from weeds
55 It s Always Pretty in the Beginning, But...
56 But You Need To Keep It Looking Good!
57 Q & A
58 Design Adaptations
59 On Slopes: Dry/Water Quality Swale Check dams Break into cells linked with conveyance Longitudinal Slope = 0.5% -- 2%, Up to % with check dams Level 2 Design: Effective slope (w/check dams)< 1%
60 Spacing of Check Dams Swale Longitudinal Slope LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 Spacing 1 of 12-inch High (max.) Check Dams 2, 3 to Create an Effective Slope of 2% Spacing 1 of 12-inch High (max.) Check Dams 2, 3 to Create an Effective Slope of 0 to 1% 0.5% 200 ft. to 1.0% 100 ft. to 1.5% 67 ft. to 200 ft. 2.0% 50 ft. to 100 ft. 2.5% 200 ft. 40 ft. to 67 ft. 3.0% 100 ft. 33 ft. to 50 ft. 3.5% 67 ft. 30 ft. to 40 ft. 4.0% 50 ft. 25 ft. to 33 ft. 4.5% 4 40 ft. 20 ft. to 30 ft. 5.0% 4 40 ft. 20 ft. to 30 ft.

62 Impermeable Liner vs. No Liner? Photo Courtesy: James Madison University
63 Use A Liner For: Larger drainage areas (e.g., > 0.5 acre) Higher volumes of water Based on advanced soil/geotechnical work, if invert (bottom) is close to bedrock (e.g., within 3 ) Stormwater hotspot land use
64 Consider No Liner For: Smaller practices (drainage areas < 0.5 acre) Advance soil/geotechnical work shows adequate soil column above bedrock (e.g., at least 3 feet to practice invert) Practices with underdrains If necessary, make practice shallower: 6 of surface ponding 18 of soil media
65 Liners Limit Practice to Level 1 Photo Courtesy: James Madison University
66 Coastal: Flat Terrain
67 Coastal Plain Bioretention Shallow it up if there are high water table or shallow head concerns: 6 ponding, of soil media Use more linear designs Use coastal plain plants, possibly more wet-footed, salt-tolerant
68 Internal Water Storage (IWS) Zone For practices with nitrogen removal objective: Incorporate internal water storage (upturned elbow), OR Use suspended underdrain with infiltration sump Check nitrogen content of soil media Source:
69 IWS Using Controlled Underdrains
70 Ultra-Urban/Street Bioretention
71 Ultra-Urban/Street Bioretention Clearly define treatment, runoff capture targets Utilities: dry & wet Match inverts to existing storm sewer may have to use upturned elbow underdrains Know the street geometry codes: turning radii, minimum widths, etc. Where needed, add safety features for drops (e.g., fences, curbing)
72 Flow-Thru Planters Counted as Level 1 design Include underdrains and 30 minimum media Source: LuGay Lanier, Timmons Group
