Additional Rain Gardens Methods Image: City of N. St Paul, GIS work: Nathan Warner Placement: -R.O.W. -Soils/Infiltration -Groundwater -Road Grading -Drainage Area -Current Land Use -Curb Cuts

Additional Rain Gardens Results Bio-retention (Rain Gardens) (Weiss, et al., 2007) $ = 152 x (WQV)^0.776 WQV = water quality volume ~ volume infiltrated in m^3 Adjustment for 2014 Cost (CPI, Bureau of Labor and Statistics) 2007 Cost ($) x 1.14“Unit” WQV = 503 cf 30’ x 7’

Additional Street Sweeping Methods ●Modeled in Dr. Baker’s spreadsheet ○Prior Lake Study ○Tymco Model 600 regenerative air sweeper ○Simple Inputs ●Frequency: 4 sweeps/year to 10 sweeps/year
11
Additional Street Sweeping Results Street Sweeping Frequency TP removed [lb] Cost per lb TP removed [$/lb] Current Condition: 4 times a year 15.7$47.81 6/year (spread from April to October) 20.7$54.52 7/year from April to November 25.7$58.54 10/year (from April to November) 31.4$60.00

●SHASAM model by BARR Engineering ●Create Plot: % Removal vs. Avg Runoff ○Det % Removal for Silver Lake ●Convert TSS to TP Additional Sumps Methods * Based on http://revolutionarybaffle.com/store/.http://revolutionarybaffle.com/store/ **Maintenance costs account for two cleanouts per year priced at $80 each.
13
Additional Sumps Results *Based on Installation, Unit, and Maintenance costs for the 20 years of removal design life. **SLV-7 has pipe diameter 30”, all others are 15”. ●Efficiency comparison ●Removal efficiency depends highly on flow through sump and pipe diameter ●Only considered NURP for SCM comparison
14
Summary SCM (Most Efficient)TP Removed [lb/yr]Cost/lb TP removed Standard Sump (per unit) 0.007-0.102$6,583-39,013 SAFL Baffle (per unit) 0.013-0.196$6,267-33,302 Rain Gardens* (per unit) 0.098-0.145 Avg = 0.109 $8,008-13,739 Avg =$8,197 Street Sweeping (4/year) 15.7$47.81 *based on 1% imp.
15
Conclusions and Recommendations Recommend: Street Sweeping Further work: develop more realistic particle file more hydrologic data
