Summary of stormwater credits function illustrating how to calculate water quality volume, channel protection and overbank storm volumes for different Better Site Design credits.
Link to this table.
| Stormwater credit | Adjusted water quality volume | Channel protection and overbank storms |
|---|---|---|
| Natural area conservation | Subtract CA from site IC when computing Vwq | Adjust CN for CA to woods in good condition |
| Site reforestation/prairie restoration | Subtract 1/2 RA from site IC when computing Vwq | Adjust CN for RA to woods or prairie in fair condition |
| Streams and shoreline buffers | Subtract ADB from site IC when computing Vwq | Adjust CN for ADB to woods in good condition |
| Surface impervious cover and disconnection | Subtract DIA from site IC when computing Vwq | Adjust CN for DIA to grass in good condition. Adjust Tc |
| Rooftop disconnection | Subtract DRA from site IC when computing Vwq | Adjust CN for DIA to grass in good condition. Adjust Tc |
| Grass channels | Subtract GA from site IC when computing Vwq | Adjust Tc |
Note: Unless otherwise noted, all units below are measured in acres
- CA = combined area of all natural areas conserved at site
- RA – Total area of site reforestation or prairie restoration
- ADB – Total area draining to buffer with appropriate flow path distance
- DIA – Total area of surface impervious cover that can be effectively disconnected
- DRA – Aggregate rooftop area that can be effectively disconnected
- GA - total non-roadway area draining to swale (rooftop, yard and driveway)
- CN – Runoff curve number for area (units: dimensionless) (see Ch.8 and App. B)
- Tc – Time of Concentration (units: time)
Vwq – Water quality volume, as defined by relevant MPCA sizing rule - IC - Impervious area of site (acres)
