Agenda

  • Regulatory application of Low Impact

Development (LID)

  • LID and Underground Injection Control
  • Research
  • Lessons Learned
slide-3
SLIDE 3

In MSW Permit, LID addressed on 3 levels:

  • Site & subdivision
  • Development Codes
  • Watershed Scale

3

Minimum Requirement #5 On-site Stormwater Management

Employ On-site Stormwater Management BMPs to infiltrate, disperse, and retain stormwater runoff on-site to the extent feasible

SLIDE 4

LID Performance Standard

Match post-development discharge durations to pre- developed durations from 8% of the 2-year flow to 50% of the 2-year flow

  • Pre-development generally a

forested land cover

Flow Control Standard

MR #7 MR #5

LID Standard 5

LID Std: Control durations from 8% of 2-yr through 50% of 2-year

List #2

  • Soil Quality and Depth

Lawn and landscaped areas:

6

Glacial till: high in runoff and poor turf quality Same soil with 30% compost added. Up to 50% less runoff. Turf still healthy 4 years later

List #2

  • Full Dispersion or

Downspout Full Infiltration

  • Bioretention
  • > 5% of drainage area
  • Downspout Dispersion

Systems

  • Perforated Stub-out

Connections

Roofs: Consider in order listed; use first feasible

Full Dispersion Permeable pavement Bioretention > 5% of drainage area Sheet Flow Dispersion, or Concentrated Flow Dispersion

Other Hard Surfaces (driveways, roads, patios, walks, parking lot) consider in order listed; use first feasible

What happens if all items on list are infeasible?

Applicant must show this is true No need for anything from list(s) Must still meet Runoff Treatment and Flow Control

Lessons Learned

  • Infiltration isn’t the end of stormwater
  • May need to temper use (there are places

where you can’t do LID)

  • Local Jurisdictions need freedom to limit

where LID is implemented

  • Need training on non-BMP aspects of LID (Site

Planning, trees, etc.)
