2. Factors to Consider 5-year Rainfall Files Winter Season Date Range Street Texture Street Cleaning Frequency Type of Street Cleaner Street Cleaner Productivity Parking Density Parking Controls

3. Rainfall Data Duluth Green Bay Milwaukee Madison Minneapolis Use 5-year rainfall files Use Winter Season Date Range Parameter files and Winter Season Information can be found on the USGS website

4. Street Cleaning Frequency One Pass Every Two Weeks One Pass Every Week

5. Type of Street Cleaner Vacuum Assisted & Regenerative Air Are Modeled the Same Mechanical BroomRegenerative Air Vacuum Assisted

6. Street Cleaner Productivity Use 1. Coefficients based on street texture, parking density, and parking controls

7. Parking Densities None: No Parking Light: 1 or 2 cars per block Medium: Cars in approx. 50% of available parking Extensive: Cars in more than 90% of available parking Medium None Extensive

8. Parking Controls Can the Street Cleaner Reach the Curb? If cars are not allowed to park on the street during cleaning times, or if streets are cleaned when cars are usually not on the streets, the answer is yes.

9. Alleys Note: Alleys are considered streets in the SLU files. The model assumes street cleaning is applied to alleys. Therefore, if you do not want to model alleys as being cleaned, the alleys must be separated in the.dat file.
