TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM

Issue Date: December 15, 2020 To: Jeff Chow, MCIP, RPP From: Ann Stephenson, P.Eng. Client: Limona Construction Project Name: West Park at Thetis Project No.: 2016-2253.000 File No.: 20162253.00.E.05.00 Subject: Modifications to the Stormwater Master Plan & Interim SWMP/ESC Conditions


1 INTRODUCTION

This memo is provided to clarify changes to the Stormwater Master Plan (SWMP) for the West Park at Thetis development in the Town of View Royal, and to confirm the mechanisms for stormwater treatment, and erosion and sediment control (ESC) for each phase moving forward.

2 SWMP

The (SWMP) for the West Park at Thetis project remains completely unchanged with respect to storage and attenuation of runoff. However, one change was made with respect to water quality treatment. In the original SWMP, dated September 2019, the plan was to provide a single, large Stormceptor™ for water quality treatment. However, as construction progressed it became apparent that such a deep excavation into the existing rock was not advisable and unnecessary.

The original Phase 1 Stormceptor™ was specified as a large EF10 to service the entire site. As the site was broken down into smaller phases, the decision was made to install treatment for the first phase only in January 2020. It was determined that installing a smaller Stormceptor™ to treat runoff from Phases 1 and 2, followed by another smaller Stormceptor™ for Phases 3 through 6 had a number of advantages. The main advantage being the reduction in excavation depth, but having multiple unit also provides additional safeguards for treatment and even emergency back-up for ESC during construction.

The first Stormceptor™ in Phase 1 is an EF6 model and was sized treat runoff from Phase 1 and 2, including the park area. It was sized using the online Imbrium software and sizing calculations are attached. With Phase 3 approaching it was discussed whether the next Stormceptor™ should be sized for the entire remaining development or just phase 3 and 5. Ultimately, the decision was made to size the Phase 3 unit to serve the entire remaining development. The Stormceptor™ in Phase 3 is an EF8 model, slightly larger that the phase 1 model due to the larger drainage area. It was also sized using the online Imbrium software and sizing calculations are attached. Both units were checked to confirm that they can pass both the anticipated water quality and peak flows, so they can be installed without a bypass.

3 INTERIM CONDITIONS

Stormwater management will be in place for all phases once the Phase 3 Stormceptor is installed. There will be some overland flow from the unfinished phases as work proceeds. However, the existing, fractured rock means there is very little water actually running off these areas. The majority of the water permeate the substrate as it did in the existing condition. There are perforated pipes at the base of rock cuts below Phases 4 to 6, designed to pick up any surface runoff from the rear south and west. These pipes directs water toward completed pipe network in Phases 1 and 2 and into the completed stormwater treatment system.

As the development continues, the proposed roadway through Phases 3 to 6 will be rough graded so the majority of surface water from this area will run along that corridor. As shown in the ESC plan, wheel washes and sumps will be constructed at the bottom of each phase to manage any sediment as work proceeds up the hill. The Stormceptors™ act as a secondary buffer to the system as they will capture any sediment that evades these precautions. Note that the portion of Phase 6 across from the Phase 4 condominium building will be cleared and rough graded with the Phase 4 work to allow for completion of the roadway.

4 CLOSURE

THIRD-PARTY TESTING AND VERIFICATION Stormceptor® EF and Stormceptor® EFO are the latest evolutions in the Stormceptor® oil-grit separator (OGS) technology series, and are designed to remove a wide variety of pollutants from stormwater and snowmelt runoff. These technologies have been third-party tested in accordance with the Canadian ETV Procedure for Laboratory Testing of Oil-Grit Separators and performance has been third-party verified in accordance with the ISO 14034 Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) protocol.

PERFORMANCE Stormceptor® EF and EFO remove stormwater pollutants through gravity separation and floatation, and feature a patent-pending design that generates positive removal of total suspended solids (TSS) throughout each storm event, including high-intensity storms. Captured pollutants include sediment, free oils, and sediment-bound pollutants such as nutrients, heavy metals, and petroleum hydrocarbons. Stormceptor is sized to remove a high level of TSS from the frequent rainfall events that contribute the vast majority of annual runoff volume and pollutant load. The technology incorporates an internal bypass to convey excessive stormwater flows from high-intensity storms through the device without resuspension and washout (scour) of previously captured pollutants. Proper routine maintenance ensures high pollutant removal performance and protection of downstream waterways.

INLET-TO-OUTLET DROP Elevation differential between inlet and outlet pipe inverts is dictated by the angle at which the inlet pipe(s) enters the unit.

  • 0° - 45°: The inlet pipe is 1-inch (25mm) higher than the outlet pipe.
  • 45° - 90°: The inlet pipe is 2-inches (50mm) higher than the outlet pipe.

HEAD LOSS The head loss through Stormceptor EF is similar to that of a 60-degree bend structure. The applicable K value for calculating minor losses through the unit is 1.1. For submerged conditions the applicable K value is 3.0.
