Jim Bachhuber PH Earth Tech Module 5h: City Wide Application of WinSLAMM
2
City-Wide WinSLAMM Application Purpose: Establish “Base” or “No Controls” Urban Pollution Loads Analyze the Effect of Existing BMPs on the “Base” Load Identify High Priority Areas to Focus Management Determine Cost Effective Best Management Practices
3
City-Wide WinSLAMM Application Example: Racine, WI Challenge: Population: 81,800 City Area: 16 square miles Outfalls: 97 Subbasins: 245
4
City-Wide WinSLAMM Application Example: Racine, WI Choice #1: Create a “*.dat” file for each of the 245 subbasins Example of one subbasin:
5
City-Wide WinSLAMM Application Or… swales curb & gutter sweep 1/wk sweep 2/yr sandy clayey Land Use
6
City-Wide WinSLAMM Application Choice #2: Create Unit Area Loading Database with 4 variables: 1.Land use (26 combinations of LU & roof connections) 2.Soils (2) 3.Drainage Type (2) 4.Management Practices (15 combinations) 1,560 Potential Combinations
7
Conducting Pollution Loading Analysis on Entire City – Racine, WI 750 Unit area loading database
