PRIORITIZATION AND TRACKING Positive points assigned for: Number of retrofit objectives accomplished High density or high visibility watershed regions Addressing water quality standards Lower construction costs Drainage area as a percentage of watershed area Quantity of BMPs installed Shorter duration to implementation
PRIORITIZATION AND TRACKING Negative points assigned for: Lack of maintenance accessibility Permits Potential adverse environmental impacts, such as safety hazards or vectors Greater long-term maintenance costs. A tracking system to measure program trends would be implemented to validate the anticipated benefits. See Appendix D, Tables D-1 to D-4
IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE Permit Part D.1.f(1)(vi) See Table 5-1. 2017 to 2020 Hydrodynamic separator, inlet screens, bioretention swales, inlet filters, pervious pavers, vegetated buffer strips, seepage wells, trench drain with filters, slope embankment stabilization, nutrient separating baffle boxes, detention basin, debris basin and channel embankment stabilization, hardline embankment area along drainage channel, roadway shoulder and embankment improvements, grassing, turf reinforcement mat
NEXT STEPS The next steps consist of identifying additional potential BMP retrofit locations within priority watersheds. The first phase will utilize a desktop analysis of GIS watershed maps to identify potential retrofit site areas. A field reconnaissance survey will confirm feasibility and effectiveness of the potential sites identified in the preceding desktop screening analysis.
