Site Plan
Site Soil Conditions
Soil Type: Urban Land – Elnora (UeA) Well drained Elnora soil - permeability of this type of soil is
moderately rapid or rapid. Permeability at 32-60 inches depth: 6-20 in/hour(Source: USDA Soil Survey)
Soil Group: B Percolation Tests:
1480 in/hour 172 in/hour 188 in/hour
Storm Water Management Approach
Use of infiltration basins to control storm water Site and building roof drains to the basins Use of infiltration rate of 20 in/hour Outlet control structure controls outflow of
larger storms Water quality volume designed to infiltrate
Storm Water Management Goals
Reduce storm water flow to combined sewer LEED Sustainable Site Storm Water Design
Credits SS Credit 6.1 Quantity Control
Match the pre and post peak discharge and volume for the one- and two-year, 24-hour design storm
SS Credit 6.2 Quality ControlPromote infiltration and treat storm water runoff from 90% of the average annual rainfall (0.75 inches)
Water Quality Volume
WQv = C * P * A / 12
WQv = Water Quality Volume (acre-feet)C = Runoff CoefficientC = 0.858i3 - 0.78i2 + 0.774i + 0.04P = Precipitation Depth (0.75 inches)A = Contributing Drainage Area (acres)
i = impervious area divided by the total areaAdded additional volume = 20% of the WQv
Utility Plan
Total Drainage Area: 2.5 Ac. - 60% impervious Depth of Basins: 1.5’ – 2’
